A lot of things I want to round up and share here this week, not all book related. First, at Book Riot:
- Cat notebooks for all your note-taking and journaling needs.
One of my goals this year is publishing in a few new-to-me outlets, and I’m thrilled to share the first one this week. I got the chance to talk with two excellent folks behind a couple of Instagram accounts which feature old homes (I’m an old home lover and dweller). I took those conversations and my own observations to dig into why it is we’re all obsessed with Old House Instagram.
Since the studio where I teach yoga is currently closed (as are all other yoga studios locally and, I hope, throughout the country), the incredible team I work with has been putting together a range of classes and resources to allow anyone to get some much-needed movement and breathing in while quarantined at home. Here’s what I’ve been offering, if you’d like to try something out. All are free to access!
- I taught a 60-minute yoga class for beginners you can access via Facebook.
- If you’re looking for a challenging class — it will make you sweat! — I taught a 90 minute mindful flow you can try via Facebook.
- Looking for a really powerful meditation that will leave you more relaxed and refreshed than you can imagine? Try your hand at this yoga nidra (plan for 30 minutes).
- You might love this yin yoga class, too. I made it into a visual, since sitting in long silences while you hold a pose could make for a less-than-thrilling video. Infographic via Facebook.
One more yoga-related thing: I pulled together, with the help of some amazing yoga teachers I know, a half-day digital retreat for Sunday. Details in the images below. I’d love if you wanted to join for one part or the whole thing (and yes, feel free to share this information! We’re offering this for a sense of togetherness during such fraught times).
