Mastering the Business of Yoga!

by

I’m thrilled to announce that after months of concocting, planning, interviewing, and developing, the M.B.Om podcast is finally available for your listening pleasure!

The M.B.Om podcast was developed out of a personal need that I had as a new yoga teacher, and I’ve created this podcast, blog & website as a way to help other new yoga teachers find their path, and grow and develop their careers.

Each episode brings you a new and unique yoga teacher that is doing something awesome and inspiring. On each episode, you will learn something different about the business of yoga and what it means (or can mean) to be a yoga teacher. You will come away from each episode feeling inspired to get on your mat, get out and teach, think outside the box, and expand your career.

I’m slowly finding ways to find the inspiration to write about the amazing travel experiences I have had from the comfort of my beautiful home in Canmore, without wanting to drive straight to the airport in search of that next adventure. It’s coming slowly…. [Read more…] about Angkor Wat & a bit of Cambodia

Throwback Thursday: Tubing & Elephant Riding in Laos

by

Laos is often described as a beautiful country that is simply forgotten about. Landlocked between China, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, and Myanmar, it is easily, and often, overlooked. When China has the Great Wall, Vietnam has Halong Bay, Thailand has Bangkok and the Thai Islands, Cambodia has Angkor Wat and Myanmar has a unique foreignness different to almost any other country in the world, what could Laos possibly have to offer that would draw people there over all of these other amazing places?

Find Your Passion

by

What do you wake up in the morning aching to do? What do you love to talk about? What truly makes you come alive? For so many of us, we wake up in the morning feeling as though we are carrying the weight of a thousand worlds on our shoulders. It’s that dread of opening our eyes and realizing it’s time to face another day, and we simply don’t want to do it. [Read more…] about Find Your Passion
