Today:
Holden 2.10.2020 class (which was actually a "classic" class from 2.11.2019, as Lee was away teaching) - with a focus on getting rid of dampness and cold and I'm all for that this long, wet winter!

I worked out without a dressing again and decided I'd see how I'd do working without one. It was weird, but I managed to get through the day with Ol' Scabby open to air. I'll probably pop a band-aid on for sleep, to be on the safe side.

Sherry - Happy Almost Birthday!! Woo hoo on that impressive step count!!!

Pat - I'll bet the ospreys will be back before you know it. My bird bush (the very large viburnum bush outside my office window) has been bird central. Those little critters have no clue how often they distract me from work. Now if I could just sit in front of the window with my trusty field guide so I could identify a couple of recent arrivals that I don't recognize.

Waves to Kate. I love it when a tough practice has great prep work. Even if I never achieve the pinnacle pose, seeing how far I'm progressing along the path makes it all worthwhile.

Pam - Hooray that you got any potential infection headed off at the pass. Sounds like you're making good progress.

Need to run - I was going to work this evening, but decided to blow that off, as I need to pay some bills and other fun and exciting chores. Then I'm going to hit the sack early and read until I get sleepy.

Today’s workouts:
~Upper Body Mini Band W/O (YT) - I felt this one!
~ETV: Meg’s Butt Toning
~ETV: Express Posture - always a fave
~Waikiki walk

This afternoon I met up with fellow VFer Jeannine aka bzar for coffee & a visit. We met a few years ago and it was nice to catch up and talk fitness with someone who gets my addition to videos and my revolving door of gadgets & equipment, lol. Jeannine is awesome and I so enjoyed reconnecting!

Kate - Nice work on the handstand prep! I can’t do them because of my cranky wrists, but I do love being upside down on my headstand bench.
ETA My niece and her partner are in Bali right now assisting Eoin Finn in YTT there. I’ve been following them on FB & IG & it looks like pretty amazing experience! They both did their YTT with Eoin in Tofino on Vancouver Island.

Sherry - Very nice step count!

Pat - I hope you successfully sorted out your Moan-day pile! The food here has been very good, lots of yummy poke, one of my favorite things. And a few mai tais of course.

Cyana - Yay for a bandage free day!

Waves to all!

Good morning! And...

Happy Birthday Sherry!

Are your guys planning anything special for you?

Pam, good to hear you are enjoying the grub in Hawaii. How fun that you got to meet up with Bzar!! I hope your toe continues to improve.

Cyana, good news about Old Scabby's freedom. Your birds must appreciate your generosity, I bet the viburnum is beautiful.

Kate - wahoo on your handstand!

Oh yes - I took advantage of YogaGlo for a restorative practice. Thirty Minute Decompressor with Mark Holzman. It was a nice backbending practice. Later I let Rod Stryker lull me to sleep with a yoga nidra, Return to Joy.

Aloha yoginis!

Today’s offerings:
~ETV: Gail’s Express Waist Toning
~Walkabout Waikiki
~Sound healing restorative yoga class - I love going to yoga classes when I travel. This was lovely & gentle with a long savasana with singing bowls and bells. It was so relaxing and the sound bath vibration from the bowls & bells was incredible.

Sherry - I hope you had a wonderful day!

Kate - I love twisty practices!

Pat - Your practices sound lovely, right up my alley!

Waves to all!

Good morning! Yesterday featured:

~ Lunch Walk;
~ Build & Burn Kettlebell Kickbox
~ Sarah Beth 20 Minute Bedtime Yoga for Lower Back Pain & Sciatica

I absolutely sucked at the kickboxing. I once had a Janis Saffel DVD - Strike Zone???? If I recall correctly that one had a good kickboxing tutorial. I focused on the KB moves using a dumbbell, and gingerly modified the kickboxing so as not to throw my back out. I'll check Youtube for Janis or another tutorial video.

I've got to get back to Transcript Land. It one of the worst recordings I've ever had and frustrating me to no end.
