Post-natal Comeback: Body & Creativity

Posted on April 26, 2012 at 5:30am 0 Comments

I'm not sure if I still qualify to be called "post-natal" as it's been a year now since birthing my latest baby, but i'm surely not the same body, mind and spirit as before the pregnancy. I quit my career after having this last baby, my Mirabelle, and with that came some big powerful changes. Not just the major ones that come with a total lifestyle change, but minor ones that have very large impact: the loss of commuting time and lunch hours. Turns out the loss of these is a HUGE deal for… Continue

The evolution of yoga, both past and present, are so fascinating to me. Knowing bits of the history of it lends even more richness to my practice. Like how Sun Salutations, Surya Namaskar, were a relatively modern invention brought about by the convergence of the Brits in India in the 1800's -- yogis' influence on the imperialists' military calesthenics. Like how the "wild thing" or "rock star" posture is a bold example of yoga's ongoing evolution -- I love it, it feels great -- and i'm no…

The Healing Magnet That Is Yoga

Posted on October 29, 2011 at 8:28am 1 Comment

When omTownYogis (nee Milwaukee Yoga Teachers Group) was born in April 2010, I sent a survey to around 75 area yoga teachers. One of the questions was “what brought you to yoga?” Many of the responses, in fact most of the responses, were heartwarming stories of personal trauma ~ the loss of loved ones, the onset of an illness, a near-devastating physical injury. My entry into a more diligent practice of yoga came with the loss of my mother and birth of my first child. With these…

How do we know we are progressing in yoga?

Posted on August 11, 2011 at 6:35pm 0 Comments

"Real progress in Yoga starts when you learn to see and feel, for yourself, the actual effects of the various poses. A teacher can tell you what the benefits of a pose are, but when you actually feel it yourself, it is much more effective. It is like the difference between being told what the gears in a car do and learning to use them skillfully yourself and to feel their effects on the road and control of the vehicle. As you progress, or become more effective at using the tools of Yoga, you… Continue

Hi Claire! It all looks really great! When can I share it with my students? :)  This actually looks like the same forum David Romanelli has us using for his coaching & mentoring program. It's great, very user friendly!  The "10 questions" looks great! It's weird seeing myself there. :) I'll browse more soon and offer feedback when I can.
Thanks Claire!
