What is Dharma?
Dharma is a new(ish) term for me. I first heard about it in a TV show called LOST. The writers of the show probably purposely picked that word as the name of the research projects name on the island. In the show DHARMA is an acronym for the "Department of Heuristic and Research on Material Applications" which, to …
Getting Caught In My Own Thoughts
About 3 weeks ago I completed my biggest goal that I have set for myself in recent future. I completed my Yoga Teacher Training. I went back to the second half of my training in a good state of mind and was ready for anything. I loved it there again, I was happy, it was …
Holding Back
Over the last few weeks I have noticed I've been holding myself back. Why am I doing this? I think, no, I know I am doing it for a few reasons. The first reason, to not get people upset. I am a very observant person. I see so much, more then I think people think …
Getting into My Own Head
In less than 4 hours I will teach my first class in a studio. I have been trying to avoid this fact for the last 4 days. Am I prepared? I probably am, I mean, I have taught 2 classes already in the last week (the last 2 Thursdays). But this one is different, this …

Rainy Savasana
Tonight I tried my first home practice since returning home. I have had a hard time getting myself to do a practice of any kind, other than the wonderful workshops this weekend. I have thought about and intended to practice at a studio or at home. But I end up finding something else to do. …
Happy
Over the past few days I have discovered and have learnt many things about me and people in my life. Right now though, it is time to concentrate on me. Yes, a bit selfish but I am in a wonderful process of finding HAPPINESS, of finding LOVE for MYSELF, and in general finding ME. I …
Home
Well I am home and back into regular life and man is it different than what I have been living the last three weeks. I am surprised how fast I have turned back into my former life. Not that it is a bad thing. I was living a good life before. I'm just tired now. …
The Ferry is Moving
I have made it onto the ferry I needed. I am 4.5 hours away from my flight home and I am sad. I was fine all day, fine walking onto the ferry, fine finding a seat. Not fine when this huge boat started moving. I am heading home to good things. To great things, my …
