Back in Costa Rica, what seems like eons ago already though it’s only been a month, I had a helpful little encounter. Julie Angel, MovNat assistant instructor, saw me standing all out of whack and reminded me of the importance of posture. It was the afternoon several days into the retreat at this point, and […]

Resetting My Jaw
Quite the dramatic headline, no? This is going to be a long discussion of dental and orthodontic health, but I think the subject matter won’t be quite as dull as it sounds. Let me start with some background. I’ve never had braces. My teeth aren’t perfect, but they’ve never caused me much problem either. I’ve […]

The Message Is…What Again?
I’ve come across some head-scratchingly strange stuff lately. Before I begin, I just want to say that I’m all for doing whatever makes you feel good. I’m not so sure of my own path that I believe it is the only righteous and good path. I know it works for me, but I also know […]

So I’ve said farewell to a formal yoga practice and I’ve confessed my desire for a better bum. Now, in true contrarian fashion, I’m going to tell you why yoga has been instrumental in my current fitness endeavors. If you’re not thoroughly confused at the end of this, then I’m not doing my job.

Hello 2013! And Thoughts on My Whole30

I’m Gonna Break My Rusty Cage…
…and run! (Shout-out to the Soundgarden lovers. I’m old, y’all.) Caution: Massive grumpage ahead. So I had to take the car into the dealership today for some routine stuff, and it usually takes them a few hours. Said dealership is across the street from the mall, which is both a blessing and a curse. A […]

Celebrating Paleo
So, I run the risk of sounding like a major vain mofo here. So be it. I own it. If I come across that way, feel free to disregard me to whatever degree you feel necessary, but I think I have something important to say. Tag along on the stream-of-consciousness journey with me, won’t you? […]

Securing My Mask First Before Helping Others
I’ve been alluding to something in my posts and comments and I thought I’d go into more detail here since there’s been some interest. But before I do, I must credit Diana Rodgers of Radiance Nutrition for the title. While I’m sure it’s not hers, she used it at PaleoFX to great effect and it’s […]
