Let Your Love Flow Like A Mountain Stream Last week I was channeling Miley Cyrus, this week I am all about Bob Marley. It’s been a very busy, very productive week, and – to also channel Melissa Manchester – I think we can make it. Friends, this is going to sound like the most Out […]

We had gorgeous sunshine and summer-like temperatures all last week, which had the happy result of warming up the community centre, so my yoga classes were taught in a normal-temperature setting, rather than a frigid one. The yard is becoming greener […]

I agreed, and went further: snow in May hardly makes me blink, although I […]
