10. December 2007
I love pie & sweets. I don’t allow myself to eat them that often. It was Thursday night & I had just finished teaching my class at 12th St. Gym. As fate would have it, I got a parking spot right outside the restaurant, More Than Just Ice Cream. The food is home-style diner meets bistro [...]

Somatic Meditation by Donald Riggs
I inhabit this isolate body,
an island no matter how often or
ecstatically I try to fuse, Bodhi
tree weaving its roots under and overthe ground my biological being
sits on, legs crossed - I can’t do the lotus
any more - could I ever? Did I dream
that bent-leg base, spinal tree, that focusnot on the clothing that my flesh is, not
on the clothespins that the vertebrae are,
not even on the clothesline of the soul,but on the invisible winds from far
over the ocean that cannot be caught
and on that which remains, even when still?The launch of our Totally Zen Store is finally here. The store features essential items for the practice of yoga, but also jewelry, bags and other accessories to make your life just a little better.
