Gift Ideas For Yogis
Yoga love has blossomed everywhere it seems, and just about everyone I know has either tried it, or practices regularly. I'm sure you know a friend or family member who has yoga coursing through her veins, so this holiday season, give her a gift to support her obsession.
What to wear and where to get it?
Where can I buy cute yoga clothes? I can't order online because it never fails that I have to ship items back two or three times until I get the correct size. I'm starting my first group yoga class and I live in Harrisburg, PA, which has surprisingly little to offer in the way of places to buy yoga clothes.Yoga Class Etiquette
Whether you're planning on going to your first yoga class or you've been to a million, there are some things every good yogini needs to know. This way, you'll be able to respect the teacher, and respect yourself as well.
- Wear clean clothes: Some teachers assist you in postures, and you wouldn't want them to have to smell your stinky previously sweat in outfit.
Affordable Yoga Clothes Under $40
I posted a slideshow of some great yoga clothes under $40, so if you don't want to spend a fortune check it out.
Athleta Yoga Jeans: Cool or Not?
Sporty and causal clothes retailer Athleta usually hits the fashion mark, but I am not sure about the Bettona Bermuda, now $35 marked down from $54. Styled to look like jeans, rivets and all, these long shorts are intended for yoga practice. Made from stretchy fabric to ease into yoga poses, these shorts even have a faux fly.
Gear Review: slotRadio by Sansa
I love my iPod, but there is a new music player vying for my heart: the slotRadio ($79) by Sansa.
The two-inch-by-two-inch clip-on music player comes with a data card with 1,000 songs from the Billboard music charts, with prearranged playlists by music genre. I tried the additional Health and Fitness mix, which includes the mixes for warmup, cardio, roadwork (cycling), power (lifting), yoga, cooldown, and the even more mellow spa mix.
Yoga Clothes
I love the look and fit of yoga gear from Lululemon and Hard Tails, but just can't bring myself to pay so much for clothes I'll probably do nothing but sweat in. Can anyone recommend some great fitting and great looking yoga gear at reasonable prices?Um, Did That Guys You Know What Pop Out?
Okay - let me preface this story by saying that at the yoga studio where I take classes - NO ONE wears little skimpy bottoms like this guy...
Last night I took Primary Series and class was moving along wonderfully, up dog, down dog, blah, blah, blah.
But we got to that pose where you're sitting on your bum with your legs out wide, holding onto your feet.
I refuse to get old.
My best friend tells me that as people age they are supposted to S L O W down. Why? I have done the opposite and I believe it keeps me young....well probably younger than most people assume I am,
Recently I was asked to take on some duties at my daughter's school and my husband put his foot down and said NO. I guess I have trouble saying no to some things. I like being involved and meeting people. If I had to stay in a cubicle all day you'd have to peel me from the ceiling. I know that my husband was right. I am too involved with so many things and adding another would be crazy.
Between being a mom and wife I manage to squeeze in college, volunteering at a women's shelter, work and an internship as well as writing content for three websites and legislation for the American Legion.... I am thinking......could I possibly add a yoga class? When right?
NPR Won't Call It Torture
Long, sorry - Anyone who believes that NPR is a "liberal" media outlet -- and anyone who wants to understand the decay of American journalism -- should read this column by NPR's Ombudsman, Alicia C. Shepard, as she explains and justifies why NPR bars the use of the word "torture" to describe what the Bush administration did. Responding to what she calls "a slew of emails challenging NPR's policy of using the words 'harsh interrogation tactics' or 'enhanced interrogation techniques' to describe the treatment of terrorism suspects under the Bush administration," Shepard hauls out every trite and misleading bit of journalistic conventional wisdom to dismiss listeners' concerns and defend NPR's Orwellian practice (as I noted recently when writing about The New York Times' refusal to use the word "torture," NPR's compulsive use of Bush euphemisms has been a constant complaint of the excellent blog NPR Check).
