Savasana is the Most Challenging Pose in the Yoga Practice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Savasana, or Corpse pose, is the most challenging pose in the entire yoga practice. This might strike you as a joke at first, but it isn’t. Savasana, for the uninitiated, is the final pose in every yoga practice. You lie on the floor, face up, close your eyes and breathe. While physically this doesn’t take much effort, the challenge of this pose is for the mind.Before Savasana, you are likely practicing lots of other poses that challenge your strength, your balance, and your mobility. These pose
Fall in Love with Your Glutes: Your Source of Power (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of my favorite topics when it comes to staying active while aging is the glutes. Why? This muscle group is your source of power. The glutes propel you through the world, but if you don’t use them, your body compensates and you often end up with pain. Using your glutes seems like a simple concept, but this muscle group can turn off when you need it most. Ideally your glutes move your forward when you walk, when you go up stairs, and when you stand up from a chair or toilet. However, this isn’
How Warrior 2 Taught Me to Take Up More Space (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Early on my yoga journey, I took yoga classes from Sharon Gannon, a co-founder of Jivamukti Yoga, in New York City. Sharon was a slight but incredibly strong woman.

She’d talk about this pose inhabiting the power of a
Stretching and Strengthening will Make Aging Manageable (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One day I woke up and I was no longer 20. Of course that happened gradually over time, not just one day, but there was a day that I noticed a shift. I noticed myself becoming more cautious on the stairs. I still had the leg power to go up and down with ease, but I worried more about falling. This was new.Aging starts the moment we’re born, but at some point we hit a peak. We stop growing and improving, and start “deteriorating.” The muscle mass that was so easy to put on in your 20s becomes hard
Loving Yourself is a Practice, Not a Perfect (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yoga has taught me to love myself as I am, but that hasn’t always been the case. I spent much of my life thinking I was both “too much” and “not enough” to deserve love and acceptance. If I was perfect, I thought, maybe I would be good enough and could find someone who would tolerate my “too muchness.” Little did I know that I needed to love myself first.Perfectionism made me keep people at a distance for decades. I thought if they got too close then they would realize that I’m not perfect and t
