Friday Round-Up: Art, Music, Yoga and Serial

Happy Friday Round-Up!

It’s been a fast – slow week. Ever have one of those? Some days move at light speed while other creep by. I’ve also had some trouble being productive this week because I’ve become addicted to the podcast Serial. Have you listened to it?

{No spoilers please!}

I downloaded it to listen to on my runs but I find that I want to listen to it whenever I can. I may have binged on 6 episodes yesterday. Oops.

Favorite Photos {PS I share more photos on Instagram. Are you following me? Please do!}

• Urban Hike. It was a gorgeous day on Thursday – bright blue skies and not super chilly – so I decided to take a walk. I wasn’t able to make the yoga class that I planned on that day and this was a great way to get outside (and get my steps in!). Nothing like an urban hike from Brooklyn to Times Square! Plus, it may have been an excuse to listen to Serial.

• A moment in between. My phone captured this in-between moment of me after teaching a sunrise yoga class when I was playing around and taking a yoga picture or two. I kind of like those moments.

• Hollowback. I wasn’t planning on participating in any yoga challenges this month but was drawn this one called #ArtMusicYogaLove. Each day highlights a specific song and we take that for inspiration for our photos.I have to say, I love this challenge. The combination of art, yoga and music has been just the inspiration that I needed. The song for this photo is Lotus Intro by Christina Aguilera.

• Wild Thing. In the lingering snow in Prospect Park. I think that people thought that I was crazy as they saw me doing random yoga poses in the park in a light sweater when it was freezing outside.

• Warrior III with Eagle Arms. Another photo for #ArtMusicYogaLove inspired by the song “Fly Like an Eagle” by Steve Miller Band. This song brings me straight back to 8th grade and lots of fond memories.

Favorite Reads - Some of the best things that I’ve read this week. Hope you like them too!

• Stop Waiting: There’s a good chance that you’ve heard or read an iteration of the lesson that Ali talks about in her post. But it’s a lesson that you can’t read too many times.

• The Photo: I think that we can all relate to this post from Kim about a bad photo. But what do you do with the “bad” photos of yourself? And do you go through these 6 stages?

• The Best Change I Made in 2014: This post made so much sense to me. It explains why we all have trouble actually doing the real work that we care about and what happens when we fill that time with lots of busyness. The solution? Three simple works.

• Gilmore Girls Reinforced My Mothering: Have you watched the Gilmore Girls? I love this series and have watched the episodes over and over again. I love Lorelei and Rory and their relationship (and their love of coffee). If I had a daughter, I wanted to name her Lorelei. Carla has been watching the series with her daughter and love the lessons that she draws from the series, especially as her family has just made a big move.

• The Shower That Washed Everything Away: This is a really stunning and powerful post about the power of love, loss and forgiveness.

Great round-up of posts, articles and photos
