Yoga Village in Arroyo Grande - Grand Opening on 3/1

For those of you that live in South County/5 Cities, there is a new yoga studio opening in The Village of Arroyo Grande, Yoga Village at 132 W. Branch Street. The Grand Opening is on March 1, offering *free* classes from morning to afternoon that day.

I don't personally know any of the instructors, nor will I be able to attend until my knee heals-up, but anyone up for a free yoga class on Saturday should check it out! As many of you know, my yoga practice is dear to me and I encourage exploring a practice of your own as a complement to boot camp and as a tool for relaxation.

Anyone who ends up going, let me know about your experience!

Out of Blog-Retirement (Plus: 7-day challenge)

I promised myself I'd post before February was out, and lucky for me, I even have an extra day with leap year. Nonetheless, sorry for my extended absence from the blogosphere. We took some time off during the holidays to enjoy time with friends and family. And then I took a little bit more time off to rehabilitate my knee.

And as much as I enjoy posting updates and staying in touch, sometimes it's easier not to...sound familiar? With January and February (nearly) behind us, it's time to take a look at things we love doing, but currently aren't, because we tell ourselves it's easier not to do them. Example: don't we all feel better after a walk or run? or an hour of boot camp? or drinking more water in the day? or getting 8 hours sleep?

Maybe these were your New Year's resolutions, or maybe you just "know better." My challenge to you is to pick one thing you absolutely love doing (or even being done with!) and do it for the 7 days. If you feel like sharing what this activity is, post it in comments, and maybe some others will come out of the woodwork and become part of your team of support. Seriously. One week.

For my end of the bargain, I'll post at least every-other-day. Ok?!
