Hi everyone!
Yesterday evening I squeezed in a short Ellen Barrett yoga mat workout, which was nice and relaxing. Today's workouts: - Kendra Fitzgerald Hip Balancing & Glute Strengthening - Pilates Flow with Mira - Small Ball Workout. This was my first class with Mira. It was pleasant and not too taxing. I like her upbeat personality. Something she said made me chuckle. I'm not sure if she realised the double entendre or not. - Ekhart Yoga - Yamuna Full Body. This felt like a wonderful massage. I'd been gardening all afternoon and had a tug of war with a weed that wouldn't shift. I got the blighter out but pulled a muscle in my upper back. The ball rolling helped a lot. Pat and Sandra - I loved hearing your turkey stories. Beth - I'm glad your new Bosu DVD turned out to a keeper after all. I still have a few Bosu DVDs somewhere. I'm sure I have one of Chalene. I'll have to dig it out sometime. Pam - Hope you like Robin's new Pilates challenge. Paine - You have the nicest weather. Enjoy your walk. Karen Jo - It sounds as though you have a great fitness plan. I like to spread my workouts throughout the day too, rather than try to do one long workout. I think we do have similar tastes; I also like Carol Argo and Nia workouts. Hope you enjoy your new Pilates books. I enjoyed how you were able to put your turkey herding techniques into practice. How cool to have grown up on a ranch. Waves to everyone popping in today.

Hi all - happy first day of fall!
I tried parts of the BOSU DVD again last night. I do like the abs work. I'm not sure how much I'll get out of the rest of the DVD though since the Balance Trainer won't really work for cardio-type moves - and I'm not sure I could get past the cheesiness factor! Karen Jo, please pop in whenever you can, and definitely don't feel like you need to take time replying to everyone! I use the "non zero" concept myself, but I usually call it "just do something." It's definitely helped me to be more consistent by not holding myself to a rigid standard. When I have more time (and energy!), I try to do more. Also like you, I try to copy my posts (especially the longer ones) before I submit. Wow, you have a long history with Pilates! I'd still like to do a reformer class some time. Margot, now I want to try that routine with Mira! I've done a couple with her. Was the Ekhart rolling practice you did with Esther or one of the other instructors? I love Esther, but I've found most of the Ekhart yoga instructors to be so sweet. Pam, I saw that Bellyfit workout and wanted to try it, but even though I work from home Tuesdays, I didn't think I could justify taking time to exercise at 11 a.m. (EST). But it's a good reminder that I want to keep doing more of the Bellyfit routines I have. I missed it - are you doing a Pilates challenge with Robin Long? I like her routines. Hope everyone has a good day!

Pat, it's nice having a diffuser in the office! I'm interested to hear what scents she chooses for your "sniffy stick." I need a massage!
Paine, glad that practice helped you. I must have "stiff old lady syndrome," because I find myself feeling stiffer whenever I've been in one place for awhile, sitting or standing. ETA - Pam, that's good to know about BF; thank you!

Margot, I have never subscribed to Ekhart yoga, just have taken advantage of their freebies - but maybe I should consider it!
I wound up filming a new video today for the first day of fall, "Reap Your Harvest": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAxTrFdDwVs&t=4s
