I AM EXCITED.

This give away thing is pretty great. I love being able to take part in giving a gift to someone and seeing people get excited about the contest. So rewarding! Cue round two of give aways! I was playing on facebook, as one does, probably more than one should... and there was an ad for I AM MARYANN. I'm so glad I clicked on it—what a wonderful surprise. Maryann's jewelry is an empowering and beautiful reminder of our personal mantras, and we're lucky...

Yoga Journal Conference | Lake Geneva, WI

Before I can even attempt to wrap my brain around this amazing weekend, I have to start with thanking Yoga Journal... for having the conference, but also for allowing people to volunteer so they can attend the conference. I couldn't afford to go to this conference, but after choosing the itinerary I couldn't have and researching the instructors I couldn't learn from (read: dreaming)... I found a page about volunteering for the conference. I had to...
