Happy Fall to my Yogini and Yogi friends! This is the season of change when we start to pull out the sweaters and watch the color show on the trees.   The fall is a bittersweet time for me because I have such a love for the summer.   It is always a little melancholy for me to see those dog days of summer slip away for another year.   I have been countering those feelings by staying outdoors more.   I am preparing for the Leaf Peeper 5K running race so just going out for a run always makes me feel good. There are still peppers, parsley, brussel sprouts, and kale in the garden that need picking.     I also am really enjoying how tasty the apples are this year.   Yum! In addition to these things, I always, always, always come back to yoga.   This summer was a wonderful yoga filled time with festivals and outdoor classes.   More recently I have started back to my teaching indoors again at The Edge in Williston, VT and an afternoon ...

Hello!   As I start to see the trees begin to change color already here in Vermont, I am reminded that there is still plenty of summer with us but the maples hint to me of the fall days to come.   Change is always around us.   It is our ability to travel through the change (and how gracefully we embrace that change!!) that is an indicator of our steadiness and ability to manage stress and the goings on of life. In this season of harvest and bounty, give yourself some time to relax, enjoy a little time outside, take some deep breathes and soak in the later part of the summer with the enthusiasm of smelling a beautiful bouquet of roses!   Let the summer fill your soul and let the sun and green charge your batteries.   Peace and Sunshine to you all!
