Subbing for Jasmine at 9 am was sublime.  The yogis were hardcore sweet.  Ended up playing tons of Nina Simone, thus felt there wasn’t so much I could say to compete and just let the class flow. Lunch in Oakland with new friend/Bestselling Author Amy Ahlers (her new book is #1 in a zillion self-help ...

Monday was somehow easy and amazing.  Perhaps my brain has indeed been rewired, as I woke up like a new person and everything seemed fresh and positive and EASY. Although I did show up for a haircut appointment that did not exist.  This guy has awesome reviews on Yelp (although this photo seems a little So...

Perhaps post-Bashar high –– and according to him my brain was being re-wired during our time together –– Sunday morning fell into a deep morass of misery.  Now apparently according to our L.O.A. friends, I shouldn’t re-create it here, but … let’s just say that all the circumstances and ch...

Surprisingly, I don’t have any big sexual or romantic item to confess here (that’s all going in the memoirs). And yet I have a new version of “the love that dare not speak its name.” Even in the yoga world where people are standing on their heads and chanting to blue, multi-armed de...

Yesterday felt that alignment was so needing to be my top priority that I headed right to Kabuki to soak.  Beyond necessary.  [And on the way, a double-sized bus pulled up next to me in the convertible –– I was baffled why –– so the driver could say he liked my ride.  Honestly.  He actually said, “So...

So late last night I became obsessed with the whole Human Design system, although I felt more confused perhaps then when I started. As a PROJECTOR (a minority type), apparently I am supposed to “wait for an invitation” which to me has always been my downfall (ie, I feel I have often spend too m...

A morning of cleaning and organizing –– moving from the upstairs back down to the Magic Cottage –– and all the sorting and paring down and laundry and filing felt very therapeutic, frankly. Then three lovely reunions: Class with Dana who arrived from Laughing Lotus NYC for several days.  Among the joyful s...

Halloween felt so over-the-top this year, maybe because it’s my first in San Francisco — where people seem really into it — and also probably because since it was a Monday, I saw people out Fri/Sat/Sun and Monday.  Since when does Halloween justify a four day weekend? I was more or l...
