What takes you to your Happy Place?

Life can bring daily challenges.  At the end of my classes I have asked people to go to their favorite place for a minute or two and enjoy how you feel in that moment, but that does not have to be limited to the end of  your yoga class.  You can go to your happy place anytime, anywhere, and for any reason.

For me, I can get a happy feeling from many things.  Like a song – Soul Sister by Train is currently my favorite.  It moves me and simply puts me in a better mood.  A symbol – My engagement ring reminds me of my wonderful relationship with my husband and our happy memories.   My daughter’s smile is a source of pure joy for me.  What is your happy place?

Sinus Relief

Have you ever used a Neti​ Pot? I use it all the time to clean out my sinuses.  I actually heard about it from some of my former yoga students. The first time you try it, it is a little strange, but once you get used to it can feel like such a relief!  It is a glass or plastic container, that kind of looks like something you would rub and a genie would pop out.  You can get them at any local pharmacy in plastic or glass.  The salt is sold in either packets or in a Ziplock bag and contains no preservatives.  Sometimes I use it a few times a week, other times it can be a month before I use it again.
