I’m of the opinion that when insomnia strikes, the best remedy is to get yourself out of bed and go write it all down. Because, let’s face it, what’s really happening is the minutes keep ticking away and you keep lying there… thinking thoughts. Thoughts that never end, thoughts that snowball into other thoughts, thoughts … Continue reading »
It’s true. Technically, we’re a cat couple. Because I’m certainly not alone in my borderline obsession with my two cats. Yes, I enjoy photographing (and now filming) Pip and Soph. They crack my sh#t up on a daily basis. But it’s every bit as likely that I’ll come home to find Jeff giving fatherly advice … Continue reading »
In the immortal words of Dave Matthews, “So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say.” Yes, friends, I have *so* much to say But where to begin? Places to Potentially Begin Horribly Overdue Post: 1) Wedding Stuff: All in all, this whole planning-the-big-day thing is really just … Continue reading »
Admittedly, I disappeared in the middle of my 30-day yoga extravaganza, and for that I apologize. But hear me out. Turns out, it was necessary to drop off the face of the the blogosphere in order to properly complete my sadhana and my yoga teacher training while maintaining some sense of calm and collectedness.

Well life is just kicking into high gear, and it’s times like these I’m most grateful for my practice. I’ve been busy at the restaurant, added another photoshoot tomorrow morning that has a 24-hour turnaround on it, and I leave for Raleigh for another yoga teacher training on Friday afternoon (did I mention my parents … Continue reading »
As part of my yoga teacher training, I’ve just started 30 days of daily practice. We’re instructed to take note of each day’s practice and any thoughts, emotions or other revelations that may come up during this process. So, for the next 27 days (I’m already on Day 3), I’m doing a little multi-tasking, showing … Continue reading »
Hot damn I love it when creativity swoops in like a great migratory bird returning home with the warm weather. Possibly it was due to my work troubles followed by unemployment followed by starting a new job, but I’d been feeling like someone left the cap off my right brain for too long and it … Continue reading »
Having just completed a yoga teacher training weekend and welcomed spring to Wilmington in a big way (it’s 80 degrees out right now and the world is abloom), I’ m finding myself contemplating the idea of abundance. It’s so easy, especially in times of economic downturn, to worry about all that you lack, to be concerned … Continue reading »
