podcasts

Hi all, yesterday morning I listened to a great podcast of Seane Corn interviewed on Speaking of Faith.

Corn has been practicing yoga for 20+ years and works with child and adolescent prostitutes. She is also the National Ambassador for YouthAIDS. You can find the interview here. That link takes you to a page whee you can download the podcast, read personal reflections on yoga and watch a video of Corn practicing body prayer. She is beautiful!

Matthew Sanford, the paraplegic yoga teacher who has adapted his practice to students with disabilities was also interviewed on Speaking of Faith. Here's the link to his interview. The link takes you to a page that also has further resources about Sanford, including information about his great memoir, The Body's Grace.

Both interviews are about an hour, but they are certainly worth the time.

Jill Bolte Taylor

Hi everyone. Jill Bolte Taylor, the brain scientist who had the stroke, whose you tube video we saw a while back, is on Oprah today.

Go here for a quick write up of today's show by a gal who is "living Oprah" for a year to see what impact that has on her life. She's also a yoga teacher!

Ashtanga Yoga

And now for something completely different....

Photo Op

Does anyone have a digital camera and would you be willing to bring it next time and take a few photos. I would like to put some up on the website. You are all STARS!!!

Creative Scheduling

Let's think about end of Nov. or December dates. Instead of doing the last weekend in Nov., which will be Thanksgiving, maybe we could do an afternoon and an evening during the following week, and do the hours in several sessions.
Let's just blog on this and see what happens.
