Shel, Your thoughts make a lot of sense to me. After a busy weekend with my family, I crave going to yoga class on Monday morning! we always do at least ten minutes of mindfulness/meditation at the end of class. I'm learning, slowly but surely. I've also started something called "hanna somatics", using a DVD. My lower back…

Karla- fun pic! :smile: and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Patti- good job on the exercise dedication! your relationship with your mother sounds ideal.

just a quick check in. I can't remember to keep insight and intention in my mind. maybe i need to tie a string around my finger. ;) on another note, i've had a recent self-realization. i'm always tense. like, always. I've been trying to foam roll some "adhesions" from lower body muscles and haven't had much success. no…

Patti- thanks for the TRX explanation! I will take the pilates VERY slowly and carefully, or i'll get fussed at by my physical therapist (been there, done that). i wish you lived closer too! I've learned a lot about tuning into my body since starting classes at a yoga therapy studio about 6 mo. ago, so that will help. I…

Lisa - I had my son at WakeMed in Raleigh over 20 years ago! The only “tom bradshaw” i’ve heard of is the football player. Cindy - what did you think of curves? i’ve never joined one, but i’ve been a member of other gyms in the past. Suzi - I’m happy to hear that Dinky’s company is having a positive affect on Laci :) Enjoy…

Today I am grateful that the reasons behind the physical pain i've been experiencing are starting to make sense to me, and I"m regaining hope that i can proactively DO something about it
