Featured (Really Great) Stuff
In this space, I want to feature the works of artists I come across in my journeys.
Cedars and Sky
Carling Johnston was only a smart and beautiful little girl when I met her. Now, she’s a smart and beautiful grown up. One who flies planes and teaches yoga! She is also an artist, and she made this mala just for me. It has special stones from British Columbia and reminds me of walking in the rain forests when I lived there. Wearing this or using it in meditation–heck, just looking at it–fills me with joy and peace. Someday soon, I’ll wear it as I trek through the BC wilderness once again.
Check out Carling’s work here.

THE Back Strip
Created by Gert Van Leeuwan of Critical Alignment Therapy Yoga, this odd-looking strip facilitates spinal release to ease tension in your shoulders, hips and mind. Yes, it’s uncomfortable in the beginning, but your body learns to soften and release. That leads to better breathing and better posture, and then, the whole picture changes.
$30 each
Take advantage of my relationship with the Canadian-owned, Vancouver-based Halfmoon Yoga and BMat collective.
