17 | Working the Wrists & Why Weight-Bearing Can Help Heal Them
Today’s topic is all about the wrists. I tend to hear a lot of complaints about the wrist in yoga, though I’m sure it’s across the board. Wrists are actually in the top 5 of complaints and injuries in yoga practice! We are using our hands in repetitive motions (think: cell phones) a lot more than we have in the past, so I thought it would be a great subject to talk about with you today. In this episode, you will hear why I teach a more weight-bearing class, and tips and exercises so that you too can create stronger, more adaptable wrists.

16 | Manual Therapy & Myofascial Release
Movement is not necessarily always the end all be all, and that means that we need to apply more to movement in order to feel our best. That is where today’s episode topic comes in: manual therapy and myofascial release! We are going to talk about just what manual therapy is, and why it’s great if you have different issues within the body that movement patterns aren’t fully addressing.

12 | How to Reset During the Holidays
I always talk about how important it is to RESET at the start of your yoga practice, but what about reseting during the holidays? It is the day after Thanksgiving, so today I'm talking about how to hit the reset button after traveling, spending time with family, or perhaps overindulging. Reset is an idea that we have these buttons within ourselves that we can press in order to start with a fresh plate. Since we already have two acronyms this week, I'm bringing you one more so you can remember how to reset.

11 | Being a Badass
Today I am talking about being a BADASS! I wanted to share my acronym for what badass means to me, based off of a speech I created for International Women's Day. It all starts with belief, and once you understand the power you have within your belief, your potential is unlimited.
