Nothing motivates me or inspires me more than music. (Well, except for maybe cute guys who do yoga…oh, and of course, helping people). I kid. Admittedly, I don’t really like to do aggressive workouts very often. Almost never. I’ve never liked going to gyms and I’ve never been into any type of aerobics classes. I [...]

“Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.”-Henry David Thoreau The other day in yoga class, one of my teachers brought up the concept of “quiet desperation.” I’ve been thinking about it ever since.

A couple of months ago, my life felt very different. Specifically, when I was living in LA, I had a lot of unstructured time, and unstructured time, for me, meant lots of yoga. As long as I got a yoga class in, I really didn’t care what else got accomplished that day. Yoga became my [...]
