Namaste {marriage}

June 2, 2014 by Lindsay 1 Comment

Welcome, Monday!

I need to tell you something about myself. This is a real thing. When I lived alone I kept a can of wasp spray by my bed. I really dislike wasps, but that wasn't the thing. I don't think we should have guns (yes, even you, sorry), and I think that if someone ever got close enough to me in the middle of the night to stab I might not do a very good job of protecting myself. BUT BUT BUT, I read somewhere in an article that taught women to fear the very earth they live on that wasp spray is an excellent protection device. It sprays for 20 feet and suffocates whatever it hits so....win win, right?

I never had to use it, that's not what this story is about.

Pregnancy and Love

I teach yoga a lot, I'm not sure if I've mentioned that before.

Syke.

Yesterday I was teaching a weird class and I got all preachy about love being simple. I have to do that sometimes when classes are...bad. They were just being bad, like all types of classes can be. Chatty, people running in and out, had to ask multiple times for quiet to start the class, you know the stuff. THEN, there was a new person who put her mat right in front and huffed and puffed really demonstratively the entire class. Also loudly said she couldn't breathe several times, which I later found was just because she recently quit smoking and it was "way too hot" in there.

It was 72 degrees.

Morningtime

Ok, I realize that it's afternoon time right now.

I also realize that I was supposed to tell you all about NYC today, and I WAS GOING TO I SWEAR but then I was up all night because I suck at sleeping and then I taught this kind of weirdly awesome restorative yoga class this morning, so I wanted to tell you about that instead and also about morningtime.

NYC tomorrow, I promise. If you are just SO EXCITED to hear about our trip (I know, you have nothing better to be excited about?), feel free to see all the fun things we did on Instagram. There was a lot.

In Service To The World {good friday}

April 18, 2014 by Lindsay Leave a Comment

Are you going to church tonight? It's Good Friday, you know.

I'm not, I'm teaching yoga. That's OK.

Religion can be a tricky thing, a hot button issue, blah blah blah. The thing is, no matter what you believe, stories from ALL religions can be used to illustrate certain truths that might make the world a better place. ...

My Mental Health Issue

April 10, 2014 by Lindsay Leave a Comment

Someone else stabbed some people in a school and now their community will be in a shambles forever and ever and the stabber (?)'s life is basically over and the victim's lives are forever altered.

The news coverage is of course awful, and we will watch and judge and analyze and talk about his family and how he might have been a bad kid and THOSE POOR VICTIMS and it will go on and on for several days and then just kind of...stop.

As these things do.
