#LiveLocal: Yoga and the Art of Business
October 9, 2018
I’ve been thinking today how the concepts of yoga are useful in business. And, how teaching yoga has helped me find a career as a professional writer. I am reminded of this because I taught my first restorative yoga class in Philadelphia. It’s a subbing role as I take care of Jodi’s students at Practice Yoga – like I was their aunt.

#LiveLocal: Soup’s On
September 29, 2018

Yes, when it comes to markets I am somewhat of a connoisseur. At least at the level of being a consistent user. Fresh Produce and Business Insights In Montreal, we had two main markets: the Atwater Market and the Jean
#LiveLocal: Reflections on Inequality
September 16, 2018
Today’s installation of #LiveLocal is a reflection on inequality. As a yogini for over 20 years, I notice many inequalities in my body. One shoulder higher, one groin stiffer, one hamstring looser. It’s all the more pronounced when you practice. These things are visible in the apparent strength of some muscles, and the weaknesses in others. The topic of inequality came up for me today because I took a yoga
