First, I think it’s only fair to say that I’ve accepted that my best guy friend Dan has been abducted by aliens. There’s really no other explanation for 2 days without communication, particularly given that he’s in Sedona. And, more importantly, quite frankly that’s what he...

I’m not a big fan of a 2012 Apocalypse, but Wikipedia defines one as: “An Apocalypse (Greek: “lifting of the veil” or “revelation”) is a disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e. the veil to be lifted.” I love the ...

Last year on New Year’s Eve I was reclining in business class on a Virgin Airlines flight to Sydney, en route to the New Zealand/Australia cruise that really did change my life. Frankly, I’ve had a lot of New Year’s Eve experiences in my day including (in what feels like another life) my ...

What an easy, sweet and delightful day. I began by teaching 3 ladies –– the assistants at my SF private client’s firm –– and it was incredibly fun.  Belle was thoroughly invited and was at her very best behavior, basically greeting everyone, parading around with some stray socks, and then sitting qui...

This morning I listened to my new anti mantra Mantra (first time I’ve uploaded an audio file so I don’t know if this will work exactly but I’m trying to share…) and inspired, began a little serious cardio-exploration of San Francisco Hills.  Then of course, more ab research, a very ...

I have been thinking a lot lately about what I can and cannot tolerate in my life. Tonight tested the limits. After dinner at Plant post beach walk with Susan, I was working on my computer and looked for my phone.  I couldn’t find it –– which rarely happens –– and then th...

Today awoke and began working on the core/ab/whatever workshop for January and for our online course (amongst episodes of 30 Rock.) Watched one ab DVD and did the workout and although the information was rather good, the quality was shockingly poor.  We’re not talking boom mikes entering the frame ––...

So fun to teach a class for an old friend today at the Lotus. I knew that NYC student and friend and editor/publisher D was coming so I blended in some Kirk Franklin favorites since we long ago discussed our love of his music — it was one of our first conversations — and she actually told him a...

Awoke early this am, and although there were no mangers involved, went off to tend the animals. First, the cat Tula needed to be fed at Val and Clark’s place.  I stayed an extra 20 minutes just so she’d have some human interaction and affection, although I do think she welcomes her vacation ...
