Axe throwing is more than a release

Wait, you threw an axe? Yes. Yes, I did. For about a half an hour, in fact. I went out to meet someone for bowling, but decided to go axe throwing before I went home. Why? Isn't that kind of unfeminine? Why not is actually the more accurate question. And no, it's not something only … Continue reading Axe throwing is more than a release →

Giving Gardening a Go

Container Gardening counts, right? I should clarify that I am a plant murderer. I have killed Peace Lillies, cacti, snake plants, ivy, air plants...everything that is supposed to grow, no matter what. Not just once, either. I've killed multiples of each of those poor plants. The only thing I haven't killed, knock wood, is my … Continue reading Giving Gardening a Go →

Meditation with Marita

Meditation is something I've tried before, but never with consistency and focus until I met Marita. Now that it's been almost a year, I feel like it's safe to say I have developed a new habit.

Bumps in the Road

Wouldn't it be nice if the bumps in your life came with a warning too? The sign is literal, of course, but it was also metaphorical. At the end of this school year, I was exhausted. We had been in some form of altered teaching for 15 months and it had taken a toll. There … Continue reading Bumps in the Road →

As we begin the new year it's easy to lose track of the time we spent relaxing around the holidays. Yes, it's always busy leading up to the holidays, but it always seems to slow down for the week between Christmas and New Years. I realize not everyone celebrates Christmas but there are so many … Continue reading Slowing down…2021 style →

Cooking with Friends

In the time of Covid almost everything has gone virtual. That includes time spent with friends.

Making Art to Heal…in just 45 Minutes

You know what cortisol is? Because I've heard it in meetings about hyper sensitivity and in ads about stress and weight gain and even in medical shows when they inevitably tell someone their cortisol levels are high. But I didn't really understand what it was or why it was important. So when I saw that … Continue reading Making Art to Heal…in just 45 Minutes →

Taking a bath…in sound

I have a Tibetan Singing Bowl similar to these except that mine has designs all over it. I'll be honest, I love mine. My brother brought it back from his gap year trip to Nepal and various other countries in that part of the world. I've used it and had great success with it. It … Continue reading Taking a bath…in sound →

Biofield Tuning

When I was at the acupressure yoga event I realized the person using tuning forks on me was actually a practitioner of Biofield Tuning. Kara is the owner of Anahata Healing Arts and is an absolutely remarkable woman. I can almost hear you saying, "Wait, What?"...

Acupressure Yoga…in a Salt Cave

Acupressure yoga in a salt cave certainly wasn't on my radar before I embarked on this journey, but now that I've tried it I think I might be persuaded to like yoga after all.
