Vegan Mommy's Have Super Powers!

 I have been vegetarian for about 5 years, when I started my Yoga Teacher Training I started to dwell in veganisim and ever since I have been struggling to become a complete Vegan because cheese is my biggest pitfall. No I don't miss the meat or anything like that but come on! some brie cheese or feta on my salad off!! Im telling you I struggle!
 So these days I take it a day at a time and a good dish after the other. and I keep telling my self that Vegan Mom's Have Super Powers! and maybe their biggest super Power is AWESOME HEALTH! and a great example to the babies by eating healthy and consciously.

The good news is San Diego is super Vegan Friendly and I have a great  Foodie! Friend! & Sister in law! that has become a complete Vegan and started her own Blog! " The Breezy Vegan" that when I read it inspired me to keep my goal of being vegan! and to keep in touch with my blog! both need dedication, time, commitment and love!

Oh! I also want to mention, that I was vegetarian through out my entire pregnancy and my baby is perfectly healthy. For any expecting mothers that are worried about the Vegan Diet lacking in protein and other vitamins; as you read on will learn that there are many vegetarian food choices with all the vitamins that an expecting mom and baby need for a healthy development.

Hope this Blog helps some Mom's out there.

I am a Mom & I Practice Yoga

Yoga has never left my side my practice has gone from the mat to every day life. Of course I am eager to get to the mat every time I can. If I have five minutes when i wake up before the baby does I take them to breath notice my body and how I feel. I then set an intention for the rest of the day & I try to carry that feeling and state of mind during the rest of my day. Sometimes is a challenge but habits come from practice and the only thing i wont do is to give up.

I wanted to share a little bit of my yoga background I became a Yoga Teacher last year by my beautiful amazing Guru, Guide, Teacher &  inspiration Kim Manfredi and her lovely team Camille Moses Allen & Marisella our meditation guide. I want to take a moment to publicly thank them for changing my life and guiding me in a journey that I am certain will follow for the rest of my life.
Hopefully I will share the practice not only with students but with my family, friends and my baby. They say children emulate parents and I surely hope she notices the good things like a daily practice. Wether is on the mat or during a walk, a conversation, or a tough decision. Of course I am also deeply grateful for my kula! my fellow yoginis and yogi that went through the same training as me. And my husband that practically & literally traveled for this adventure as my support and friend.
Also thank you Baltimore for being the witness! at  Charm City Yoga the house of the journey. www.charmcityyoga.com/

I have mentioned on my facebook earlier this week that I have always tried to share with people my yoga training experience and describe with words what Kim Manfredi my teacher was like and how it felt learning from her and I found this video sharing a bit of who she is.  I think this may help people see a bit more of what yoga means to me through my teachers practice. I hope  one day can emulate my passion for yoga in my own way, as she does by sharing her practice. YogaArt.

Namaste.

Mom goes back to “The Studio”.

Yoga YOGA yOgA YoGa Yogaga!!

I have notice lately that my practice has been so patient, never jealous, never gone, and never empty.  Yet I think I took my practice for granted for a while, its time to reclaim my yoga. So my resolution is getting back to basics and practice before teaching again.

This Monday I start going to a new studio; I'm so excited! I love that feeling of going to a studio where no one knows you and you are just there for you and your practice (specially no one knows I teach). So far they are super friendly and soon I will be unveiling the name of the studio and share my review.

If you are a yoga avid mom and been practicing for a while I suggest to some times change it up a little bit. Change the teacher the studio or the time; you will be amazed of the things you will discover about your practice therefore your self.

Wouldn’t it be amazing for a Yoga Studio to have daycare?..

That is all for tonight.

Much love,

Anny.
