Yoga is hot…
But today is was not. The yoga studio where I attend classes is booming even as other businesses are closing their doors. The new space that the owners opened up is connected to the old studio. They decided to have hot yoga on one side and "regular" yoga on the other. Good plan.
Today I decided to get there early and since the "not hot" yoga was the earliest class, I took it.
The instructor was a man, a very buff man who looked more like a weight lifter than a yogi. But looks can be deceiving as was the case here. He was a yogi and had me sweating almost as much as in "hot" yoga. I found myself liking the new space and the new instructor. Yesterday's experience taught me to be more open to new possibilities.
Well this new possibility had us working and sweating- and liking it. That is what I call a talented yogi.

Lose 10 pounds
May's challenge: Lose 10 Pounds
This month's challenge is to lose 10 pounds.
The Plan
To lose weight you have to burn more calories than you eat. Simple math. So why are diets so complicated?
I decided to take everything I had ever read or tried and combine them in a simple formula: KIF.
Kinetic Focus: Exercise everyday.
Inner Focus: Ask yourself, "Will I feel guilty if I eat this?"
Food Focus: Be a vegetarian.
If you are following along with my little experiment, here is the official "warning": Before you begin any exercie or diet program, consult your doctor.
Okay, so there you go.
Three simple ways to stear myself to eat less and move more.

Every month a new challenge. I'm not A.J. Jacobs nor am I Julie Powell. I can't live out the Bible in a year or cook all the recipes in Julia Child's cookbook. But I can do something for 30 days. A commitment to do something for 30 days is reasonable and I am a reasonable person. I just want a challenge to shake things up, mostly for the better. I just might find something interesting along the way. Besides, if you don't like what you've tried, it wasn't habit forming.
