YOGA

I am starting a yoga teacher training at Strala with the lovely Tara Stiles. Tara is a dear friend who I can definitely learn a lot from. The idea of starting this training is actually a very calming thought in my extremely hectic life. I have a 4yr old, 1 year old twins, a lovely 14yr old step-daughter, 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and a couple restaurants in Brooklyn(Lodge & Urban Rustic). I am a birth doula and am currently on call for 4 births right now. Two of my mommas are in early labor. Fingers crossed that they don't overlap. I would hate to disappoint anyone. I was hoping to take my first yoga class tomorrow but might not be able to pending the labor progress of my clients. Friday or Saturday will have to be my first day. I think my work as a birth doula will greatly benefit from this yoga training. The body is such an important tool during the labor process. Being in tune with your body and understanding the power it posesses is a truly beautiful thing. I can't wait to embark on this journey.
