: About Me

Having survived the empty nest syndrome where one looks in the mirror and states "O.K. now it's my turn". What ride do I buy a ticket for?

Looking at life as one big adventure helps quiet the voice in my head that says "You, one of those self absorbed, intellectually mysterious writers", are you kidding? I answer the voice with a confidant "why not me"? And by the way, "shut up"!

So with that proclamation, I am guided to this web site by a dear friend who is going out on her adventure as well by fulfilling a life long vocation to be a writer.

Having been a yoga Therapist and Teacher for 17 years offers me some insightful information I would love to share in the form of the written article. Hence; when the student is ready the Teacher will appear...and I am more than ready...ripe I should say!

I have also had the privilege of being a member of the Screen Actors Guild as a working Actor for 18 years. There is a reverence for Writers among Actors as if they are touched with a magic wand and selected from a gifted few to pursue this unattainable craft. I plan on mucking up that belief system!

Thank you for being part of this process. Who ever you are. And I am hopeful you will enjoy sharing my ride! Be gentle with me,it's my first time and the ride may be rather rough!

Hatha yoga postures or asanas are commonly identified by archetypes, animals and forms found in nature. It is evident that the ancient architects of yoga looked to natures engineering, plant and animal life and were inspired to replicate that which they experienced into the science. The rabbit, cow-face, tortoise, pigeon, cobra, locust, bridge, plow, down facing dog, up facing dog, serpent, half moon, tree, mountain, and sun salutations, are just a short list of some very familiar yogasanas. The science of yoga provides an incredible system of health and energy management but also a source...
