Welcome 2013!

Yesterday was the day when all the old is washed away and a new year brings a new beginning.  I have a number of goals for this year and they will be centered around one word.....MOVE!

That doesn't mean I am going to physically move from where I live but who really knows what the universe holds.  It does mean that I am going to move forward with my career and relationship and all of my personal goals.

I would like to write here once a week this year for the whole year.  I will provide book reviews and restaurant reviews (although these will be few and far between until I pay the Christmas bills).

I am going to continue to improve the healthy eating that I have been working on slowly for the last couple of years and will share some of those experiences when I can.

I am going to make positive affirmations daily and move towards a more positive outlook for my life and work. Today's affirmation for me is: Work is easy and fun for me!  I found this on the website by Louise Hay who is the author of You Can Heal Your Life.  She is a favorite self help author of mine who I find very inspiring.

I am going to move my body through exercise, yoga, walking and biking.  I got a couple of books for Christmas, one on cycling tours in Ontario and the other on hiking the Bruce Trail. I am looking forward to both activities and will start training today.

This sounds like a great start to the year.  Let's get a move on!

700 Hours of Learning....start now!

Here goes I am embarking on a two year adventure into myself and the world around me through yoga, massage, coaching and other modalities.  With this journey comes a great reading list and journaling.  This is not something I have ever been able to keep up, with much regularity, as you can see from my posts here.....lol One day I may succeed as I continue to practice for the next two years. I have received the reading list and am happy to have just finished Yoga Sequencing:  Designing Transformative Yoga Classes by Mark Stephens.  This book was suggested to me and for obvious reason, it is incredibly informative.  As a beginning yoga teacher it provided great pictures and foundations for infinite classes that I am now able to create.  It will continue to be on my bookshelf as an excellent reference,and I could reread it still getting useful information a second or third time.  Now I will delve further into this genre of reading with Yoga Anatomy by L...

My Cup O Tea

Over the years I have become a fan of tea.  My favourites are non-caffeine.  Green Teas, herbal teas and rooibus.  Almost any loose leaf tea will do.  I once got chamomile tea from a friends parents and it was really just a whole baggie of chamomile flowers.....it was from a place in Sarnia, Ontario but I am not sure exactly where.  It just seems so much fresher when you can recognize it by sight.... In June while on vacation I found a tea store selling hand tied leaves.  What a fantastic aroma of jasmine.  It is the Madame Butterfly tea by Capital Teas (www.capitalteas.com).  It was very expensive and I just couldn't afford it but they certainly had lots of great teas. My most recent vacation in Florida found me in the Spice and Tea Exchange (www.spiceandtea.com) where I purchased a small bag of loose leaf hazelnut cookie tea.  Ceylon black base so not my usual herbal but wonderful smell and tastes very rich.  An enjoyable tea....
