Wouldn't stop picking at it: July 2009
http://wouldntstoppicking.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Wouldn't stop picking at it. Remember that James Blunt. Made all the girls swoon? Well, not me. But I've always had an ambivalent relationship with the word. As much as I hungered in my youth to hear that I was beautiful, I never inspired that kind of poetry from men. One boyfriend once remarked to someone else that I had beautiful eyes,. I do get a lot of " cute. But don't start thinking I'm fishing for comments - plenty of people call me "beautiful" and mean it, i.e. m. Whether any man will ever find m...

Wouldn't stop picking at it: Becoming a better yoga teacher
http://wouldntstoppicking.blogspot.com/2010/04/becoming-better-yoga-teacher.html
Wouldn't stop picking at it. Becoming a better yoga teacher. I've been teaching an Introduction to Yoga enrollment class at AYM. For the last 5 weeks - we wrap up next Saturday. Big news, right? The honour of being asked to teach at the school that trained me. The immense confidence being placed in me by the people I respect most. You can understand why I didn't mention it until now. I was worried that if it didn't go well, I would have to admit failure. Make prop use mandatory. I certainly went over my ...

Wouldn't stop picking at it. Tango - changing partners. The instructors always encourage us to change partners every few songs so that we can develop better dancing skills. Not only does it hone my ability to recognize cues, but it's also a real pleasure to feel how each partner has been improving over the last six weeks. The students are pretty game - except for one couple that stoutly refused to be separated every time it was time to switch. And then last week, just like that, they changed partners.

Wouldn't stop picking at it. Tango, propulsion and confidence. One of the aspects that I'm enjoying this time around is learning about propulsion. Or more precisely, the way that the energy emanating from my partner propels me into the dance. The exercise was designed to teach the ladies how to flow into the natural forward movement. It was very, very helpful and on so many different levels. We all know this. And doesn't more productivity and success only lead to more confidence? To learn this lesson aga...

Wouldn't stop picking at it: Working from home, Tip #47
http://wouldntstoppicking.blogspot.com/2010/04/working-from-home-tip-47.html
Wouldn't stop picking at it. Working from home, Tip #47. The greatest advantage - and the greatest pitfall - of working at home is not keeping a regular 9-5 schedule. It means that if I want to take a yoga class on Wednesday morning, I can catch up by simply working a few extra hours on Tuesday night. The pitfall is that, sometimes my brain gets so tired from a full day of working with words, that it isn't as sharp after 6pm. To help my brain reboot. Heck, I even squeezed out a blog post. With photo!

Wouldn't stop picking at it: April is the cruelest month
http://wouldntstoppicking.blogspot.com/2010/04/april-is-cruelest-month.html
Wouldn't stop picking at it. April is the cruelest month. Never have T.S. Eliot's words resonated more with me. April has been a long, trying month and I'm glad it's (almost) over. Hip adjustment. Nerve malfunction in my hand (four physio appointments later). Nasty head cold. Hormonal freak-outs. Creakier-than-normal joints. Wonky sleep patterns. I feel about 107 years old this morning. So going through a physically difficult period without my Number One Coping Tool. There are people that I rely on for s...
