Halloween has come and gone and let me tell you it has been quite the fight for, yet ultimately, loss of self-control; I won’t lie to you, I have definitely snuck into my kids treats on several occasions. And odds are, I will probably sneak in a few more times before they are completely gone.
And with the holidays fast approaching, the temptations become even more enticing. On top of all that, weekends seem to book up fast, with parties, holiday events, and trying to make sure that I have everything that I need to get done completed in time for the holidays.

I love this time of year, I really do. As we speak, the front of my house is covered in Halloween decorations, from cobwebs with spiders, to spooky ghosts and hanging lights. I love getting into the spirit of the season, with my two young boys getting excited to dress up and go trick-or-treating, I find myself becoming excited as well.
Strrrreeeaaaccchhh up. Hold and release.
Feels nice to stretch flow doesn’t it? Hold on a second…...stretching and nice do not go together. Those tight muscles and tendons hurt! 
Picture this.
You have one hour to:
For most of us, this isn’t that hard to imagine. This is your every day. Every morning you hustle and, every morning you are a rockstar. 
There you are. Standing at the top of your mat. Heaving in tadasana. Perspiration gushing. Your self-consciousness and sweat puddle expanding at rates only the Buddha is comfortable with.
You have already tried to hide it. Everyone knows. Isn’t it obvious you created a pool for the whole class to cannon ball into? How could anyone ignore you’re not doing yoga anymore? It’s clear you are swimming laps… right? 
Wellness is the new "diet." It’s the new buzzword attracting health gurus and enthusiasts by the masses. However, most of us are still left confused, distracted, and frankly, a little uninspired by what we’ve come to discover. Anyone can claim that they are incorporating wellness. We can all sprinkle the word around like a Houston afternoon rain shower but, it does not mean any of us truly know what wellness is, let alone how to embody it throughout our day-to-day.
Taking yoga classes in Houston, Texas' scorching summer sun is like climbing a mountain made of flaming porcupines. It pretty much seems impossible unless you're crazy. How do people face the fire without getting burned? Or, in more applicable words, how do people commit to a yoga practice when it gets hard? 
Bend. Breathe. Twist. Breathe. Stretch. Breathe. Repeat.
The yoga grind can definitely get overwhelming. So many poses, so many postures, so much sweat, so much strength... how do you do it all? 
Every yogi has a purpose. From healthy weight loss to emotional regulation, there are always a rhyme and a reason to our choices – including rolling out our mat.
For Urban Fit Yoga owner and founder, Wayne Campbell, the role of yoga has been life-saving. After facing several severe accidents, Wayne was left hurting with a body that could not support him. 
Eyes contemplating your ceiling, cozy comforter swaddling just right, and your spine questioning whether you can make it through another long day at the office. Remember this? We’ve all been there.
The achy, throbbing sensation that greets your vertebrae each morning is nothing foreign to the modern world. In fact, according to a recent study by the American Physical Therapy Association, more than two-thirds of Americans experience low back pain. Now, that’s a lot of people. |
