After my plateau, I made great strides in my Lumosity scores today + I am proud to say (and did say on my secret Tumblr blog) that I’m down 0.7% in body fat, too. However, in one newer game Koi Pond where you have to feed each fish a pellet with a three second delay between each feeding (note:  the f...

Anyone who knows me, knows that my very favorite fitness book ever is CONVICT CONDITIONING by Paul “Coach Wade.” I love its subtitles:  “How to Bust Free of All Weaknesses –– Using the Lost Secrets of Supreme Survival Strength.” The author spent 19 years in San Quentin and the like ...

I have one private yoga client who spends weeks in Asia and we work via Skype. For a while now, I’ve had Creative Coaching clients in NYC, LA, and SF –– and recently one in Australia.

Not having looked at it for a few months allowed me to have a much fresher eye, like when you visit your storage s...

Today I handed in to my publisher several pages of potential copy blurb + a synopsis + sample bios for me + ideas and notes on cover art possibility … but I’m still holding on to the manuscript, at least until this weekend. When you’re filming something, there’s a step before sound ...
