By the time you read this blog, my husband and I will be on our Mediterranean cruise – bliss.

But before even boarding the cruise ship, we have to contend with a nine-hour flight to Frankfurt and another two-hour one to Rome, where we’ll pick up our cruise. Ugh (to the flight, not the cruise). (more…)

For those of you who are parents of young children, I am sure you will be able to relate immediately to the situation I faced the other day.

We were at Science World, a wonderful, educational environment for everyone of all ages. My now two-year-old son and his father were playing at one of the exhibits when an accident occurred. My son put his arm into an opening on the top of a table at the same time as his father moved in the opposite direction. (more…)

Recently, I signed up at the nearby recreation centre for my second session of yoga classes. When I showed up for the first class of this new session, I was surprised to find that my original instructor wasn’t teaching the class. She was away and was being replaced by a new instructor. I was disappointed as I’d really liked Jovina, who had been encouraging and patient. Once I got over my initial disappointment, however, I was excited to see what our new instructor would bring to our sessions. (more…)

Are you in the military forces or do you know anyone who is? Well, how does the idea of yoga for the Military sound to you?

Okay, so now you’re probably wondering how on earth yoga would fit into the military forces. Think about it – we all sometimes feel like we’re carrying a huge boulder of tension on our shoulders throughout the day. (more…)

So many people ask me “How do you do it? How do you run your company with your child by your side daily?” And these are people who know that running YogaHub is not the only business I oversee, but just one of many.

My answer? I just do what it takes. Don’t I get tired? Don’t I get frustrated with him as he gets into anything and everything at this wonderful stage of his life? Don’t I sometimes feel like I need some time to myself? (more…)

Well my fellow WAHMs, I hope the current economic crisis is not taking too much of a toll on your lives.

It’s been quite a roller coaster ride this past month and, of course, with the elections coming up next week, we all seem to be getting caught up in the fear that is whirling around us. (more…)

Aaaah…another flight with my 18-month-old son.

When he was a baby, it used to be an extremely easy way to travel. He would share my seat, gurgling and cooing his way through the flight.

Now, of course, it’s a different story. (more…)

If you are a student of QiGong Yoga from China or Hatha Yoga from India, then you will be familiar with the self-healing benefits that each practice offers.

QiYoga, a unique new style of yoga, blends these two traditional practices and adapts them to suit today’s lifestyle. (more…)

There are days during my whirlwind life of being a WAHM (“Work at home Mom”) that I feel old.

Feeling old – what does that mean? What does it really mean to “feel old”?

Do you know where your senior friends or relatives are this morning? Well, if you happen to live in the community of Brockport, NY, they may just be hanging out with Nancy Burhyte at the Burhyte Ballet School – except they won’t be learning how to do ballet poses, such as the first position or an arabesque, but will rather be in a yoga forward bend or child’s pose.
