Tonight I celebrated my long awaited triumphant return to my beloved bellydance class! It was delayed two weeks by my shoulder injury. So far I seem to be no worse for having danced my heart out.

What is the common wisdom about forming good habits? It takes 21 days? Well, it has been over three weeks since I started tracking my goals and I am still doing yoga everyday. Yippee! My morning yoga habit has even begun to compete with my morning coffee habit for priority. The other day when I…

Hi Barbara, I was twirling last night again 🙂
So glad to have found both your websites!
Me too – I’ve put links to both of your blogs on my blog. Thanks!
