Orkut Myspace Namaste Comments & Graphics
The first time I heard this word was at the yoga class I attended at my friend Tris’ house years ago. He had just gotten back from studying and teaching bikram yoga in — I can’t even remember where — and was plnning his studios. And he had to continue [...]

We Had a Scare
Part of the requirements to big school for K is a visual and auditory test. When we took P 3 years ago, there was no problem at all. For K, I waited till the very last minute to submit the requirements, thus that hearing and auditory test was done last minute too.
P and I took [...]

Happy Things When I’m Sick
I’m been sick since last night. And I hate feeling sick only because I hardly am.
My joints hurt (eto pala yung feeling!), my head hurts, my throat hurts!
But despite all that, these are the highlights of my “I feel like sh*t sick” day…

James
James is big. As in basketball player big.
His background is in physical therapy. And he did a two-year course with a reflexology school in Manila–the name of which suddenly escapes me. He says that the founder of the school was one of the pioneers in the country.

Patience is a virtue…
…that everyone should learn.
Since I had skipped a day of my couch potato to mean running machine, I knew I just had to get up this morning.
P is sick and stayed home from school so I figured running a bit later (6AM) than usual (5AM) would be better.
And I did. And it was good.
During [...]

Couch Potato to…
3-5k.
Yup, I did my 3rd day of week 1 yesterday.
Three or so months of non-exercise has taken a toll on my body. I’ve been sluggish, so unenergized and so

the podcast that I have been looking for
and a neck strap for [...]

Yoga in the Heat!
I got this from Tris yesterday. No more skipping yoga, except today because we’re going to the organic market at Paseo de Magallanes.
We all know this truth: yoga is more mind than body.
This statement is specially relevant when attending the summer classes. It’s hot and humid outside and its even hotter in the [...]

Getting back into the Groove
Exercise is a difficult thing. Even more so in the heat. After a three-week hiatus, I swore to get back to exercise. (First week I was absent was because of scheduling issues–and I was busy. Second week was Holy Week, and the third week, I was just plain lazy.)
Monday morning, I [...]

It works, it works!!
Yes! YES!!!
Bikram Yoga works! I will not stop singing praises for bikram yoga!!! I lost 4 lbs. in around 2 months. But I got toned, yup—abs, arms, even legs! I know that 4lbs sounds little, but it’s made me closer to my goal of losing 15 lbs. (gulp) this year!

Bikram Yoga for Weight Loss??
I’ve noticed myself eating less than I would regularly do. The fact that I am busy (tindera nga!) doesn’t contribute. I usually stop and eat during meal times. I’m the one who gets grouchy when I am not given food when hungry (it was in my sister’s wedding speech–advise to S to [...]
