This is something I wrote last year for the Let it Flow Newsletter and thought it relevant as we enter what can be a very stressful time of year.
It’s a joyous yet busy time of year, and that can often lead to extra stress physically, emotionally and financially. Follow these tips to [...]
It’s been a week since I returned from my weekend at Kripalu and I’m still feeling the peace I experienced while I was there. The other thing I’m still experiencing is the wonderful cuisine. I bought the Kripalu cookbook at the gift store and I have been cooking from it all week with much [...]
Wednesday night I watched Deal or No Deal. I was flipping channels and paused long enough to learn the contestant that evening was from Boston. There wasn’t much else on so I decided to cheer him on.

Last weekend we had the opportunity to travel up to the Montreal area to visit friends. On Sunday we took the 90 minute drive north to Mont Tremblant to hike and tour around. What a beautiful spot. A lake, a village, and a mountain which on Sunday had snow at the top. [...]
I read a short article on Boston.com tonight about wearing make up during exercise. I personally do not. Sweat band on my head or not, the sweat drips down my face and into my eyes, contact lenses and all. Add make up to the mix and I’d be a complete mess.
