Time to Breath

Lately, I've found my self indoors do to the cold and rainy weather. In attempt to keep myself busy I have been practicing Yoga for at least an hour per day. DVD's and on-demand programs work for me because I can practice when I feel like it.

When my energy levels are low my go to is Giam's 'Five Day Fit Yoga.' If I'm feeling high energy I'll go for Element's 'Yoga for Weight Loss' or Shiva Rae 'Daily Energy Flow' and if I'm in the middle I enjoy Crunch 'Candlelight Yoga' or 'Yoga for Health.'


It's best to stay well hydrated and not eat two hours before practice. I love yoga because I can push my flexibility and strength while calming my mind and aligning my body. Just taking the time everyday to properly breath makes a huge difference.

Funfetti for February

Lately I've been truly appreciating and enjoying my free time. I've been visiting with friends and family, going on hikes, cooking and baking a ton and catching up on my arts and crafts.
I have been getting so much joy out of cooking for others. This morning I made a batch of cupcakes for my fiancée to bring in to work to share with his coworkers. I hope they like their Valentine's Day cupcakes!

It's a brand New Year!

The Holidays are officially packed up until next year.It's been a while since my last post but better late then ever! Since my last post there's been a ton of changes in my life. My company finally closed down. It felt like I was on a sinking ship for 9 months but still, I had mixed feelings leaving. I didn't love being a mover for the last leg of the journey but made life long friends and learned more then I ever knew was possible. I'm looking on the bright side of things and enjoying my time off.
The holidays were lovely, got to spend a lot of time with my family as well as my fiancees. New Years was a blast with friends.
The adjustment to not going to work every day was difficult at first but now I have embraced the free time with open arms. My fiancee and I have been spring cleaning, cooking, working out and laughing together. I'm shocked about how much stuff we were able to cram in this one bedroom apartment and how much we can donate!
I've been job searching like mad, networking and making connections. I love the challenge and game involved with finding a job.
2011 is gong to be a great year and decade, bring it on world!
