Twenty-eight days is what is takes to break a habit and to implement a new set of habits.

My father was really into yoga, and back then, it seemed like we were really the only ones who knew about yoga. It amazes me now... just what a movement yoga has become and what an industry it's become.

I love nuts. A handful of almonds, cashews, or walnuts will get me through a couple of hours.

I love a good, old-fashioned sliced apple sprinkled with salt and cinnamon, and sometimes cayenne, to enhance the flavor and give it a kick.

I don't want people to think there's one right way to eat.

I love yoga because it allows me to slow down and experience how good it feels to be in relationship to my body. It teaches me patience, acceptance, and how to receive.

I have learned that grief is a vital part of my heart and accept it as a gift that exists alongside joy.

For nearly every challenging moment in life, there's a yoga pose to help you feel better.

Do not compare yourself to what others seem to be.

I think that whenever we're physical, not just in yoga, I think that physical exercise brings up a lot of emotional things. If someone's in a spinning class, they might just start crying. That just happens.

Mountain pose is the mother of all poses. The alignment of mountain pose is contained within every yoga posture.

Yoga is active relaxation, which allows us to develop presence and take responsibility for the way we feel.

When you stay hydrated, you're not as hungry. Sometimes, when you think you're hungry, you're actually thirsty.

One thing that those who are in shape have in common is that we are restricting. When eating, we are choosing what we put in our bodies. This arrests unconscious eating.

I always degenerate to chocolate and coffee.

Before you find a way to channel your emotional energy, you must take time to be still and actually feel. Meditation is a simple tool for becoming present.

My father first brought yoga into my life when I was 7. He began yoga, meditation, and diet to help with his back injuries incurred from being really athletic. Once he healed, he began to use yoga to take his body to a new level.

I am obsessed with the Mylkman. His fresh, handmade Almond Mylk is nondairy and the best I have ever had. It tastes like dessert.

Many people talk about the mind-body connection and how what we think can affect our physical self. What I have found, even more than the mental connection, is that the emotions rule the body.

Any pose that is an arch will open the chest cavity and is excellent for energizing the body.

I went to a school for experiential learning all around the city of Los Angeles. We went on at least 2 field trips a week, and I went there for 7 years, so I have seen a lot of this city.

If you focus on what's wonderful, that's where the energy will go.

I try to get a workout for myself in before I work with my clients. I do this to center myself.

I have always loved the Barnsdall Art Center and the Hollyhock House.
