Weight bearing exercise is so important for bone health. I just had another bone scan and after a year, there is some improvement. This is with the help of pulse yoga, additional strength training, bio-identical hormones, supplements and limiting alcohol consumption to 2-3 glasses of wine per week. Lumbar T-score went from -3.0 to -2.3. hip T-score went from -2.2 to -2.0. I am quite happy with the results.

Pulsing out of the jet lag state
Tuesday, September 29th, 2009I have been trying to use Pulse Yoga as a way to return to another time zone. After biking in Italy, I am back in New York with just a few days before I go to Vail for the workshops at The Westin and Dogma. I think it really helps. Carrot, apple beet juice is another things I like to get my system cleaned out and refreshed. So yoga may not be the panacea for all ills, but it may, along with all of the other benefits, be helpful for jet lag.
About the Pulse Yoga Workshop on August 30th
Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009Some great energy was flowing around at the inaugural Pulse Yoga workshop on August 30th. Prisca and I had been playing with the idea of hosting a workshop all summer. We have been working so hard on organizing our Pulse business, by hiring a PR firm and redesigning our website, looking for distributors for the DVD’s, etc, etc.
We also made a trip to our storage unit where the remains of our Yoga for Athletes Fitness Studio has been gathering dust for the past few years. We came upon boxes and boxes of release forms with the names of all of our former students. As we started sorting through them, we found ourselves saying things like, “Oh remember so and so and what ever happened to them. Are they still in Vail? I wonder how they are doing.”
