Welcome to Michi!

,
Meet Mr. Shin.

Earlier this week Cliff, Amanda and I had the most amazing dinner at Michi.
I told Mr. Shin that I don't like seafood (yes, in a sushi place I said this out loud-- sad face) Mr. Shin put his culinary genius to work and made me my very own roll.  BTW anything covered in tempura batter, mango, avocado and jalapeno is always a good idea.
Which I was invited to name... we settled on Fook Fish Eat Me :)
You'd totally order that wouldn't you!

We sampled sparking Sake and cold Sake. 

Amanda and Cliff tried Japanese French Fries, little fried fishes. 

 
We closed the place down... and then

 after like 12 courses we had two rounds of dessert.  
I have never been so full.
Every course was so thoughtful, so beautiful and so delicious!

The chopsticks speak truth... With Michi... Life is Always Beautiful!

Thank you Mr. Shin, that was a feast and a night to remember!

What do you love about yourself?


Earlier this week a gal that I adore was having a hard day.  I mean really tough.  The bluest of blue.  I said. ---you ok and she responded with a ---NO, I want to cry and saying that out loud makes me want to cry.

So we talked.
And we went for a walk in the sunshine.

Sunshine battles the blues like none other.  Sunshine is powerful, good stuff.

Some time passed... And then I asked her. What do you love about yourself?

And her answer...
Oh that's really hard, I love so much!

I smile. and say- top 5 then.
She starts to tell me all the things she loves about herself.

She says, She loves how positive she (usually) is.
I say, I love that about you too.

And suddenly her face lights up and the blues have been squeezed right out and we continue talking about all that's good about her and then she does the best thing ever, she asks me the very same question.

Friendship is cool.

What do you love about yourself?
I hope you don't even know where to begin!
xo,

This community of ours, they are saying nice things.

I was talking with a girlfriend last night about community and how truly lovely the blogging community has been in my life.  It's the power of putting good out there and getting it back.  Whenever I need something I just ask and you guys are always there to hear me out, cheer me up, give or take inspiration, or rally!  It's soul soothing and so very empowering. 
These three ladies have said some very nice things about my line on their blogs and I wanted to share both their comments and their blogs with you.

Thank you all so much!
I super duper appreciate you!
I am honored to be a part of this amazingly loving community.

Welcome to Breathe

Today the Breathe Los Gatos website goes live on the solstice
and I am so very proud to announce it to you!
I spend most of my time lately as the project manager working to get the studio open.  Everything from paint chips to hiring staff, you name it-- I'm organizing it.  My coming to work at this studio has been years in the making.  It feels that big... it feels like everything has lead up to this, it feels like home.  Bold statements I know.  
It starts with Jennifer.  I have this thing with Jennifer's in my life.  I'm surrounded by really good ones.  There's the Jennifer who taught me what not to wear and how to best take care of my skin (the only person I will let touch my brows).  I love the way she loves her family, the way she's so beautifully in her own skin, her class, her style, her talent, her nature.  
The Jennifer who was my health coach and the reason that I became a health coach and who I co-lead our Women, Food and ... discussion group.  I love the way she listens, the way she goes for the things she wants, the way she speaks honestly when I ask the really tough questions, that she's a do-er.  
And now Jennifer who owns Breathe.  We 1st met when she came into Soula to take a class.  I was the perky girl at the front desk who greeted her and she was noticeably taken back by my chipper welcome.  We are both intense but in completely different ways.  Little did I know we'd be working so closely and causing each other to spit with laughter years later.  I'm in awe of what Jennifer can and has created.  She's a force, she knows it.  I love her sense of humor, her drive, her seemingly endless supply of can do and the fact that she can always drop in, connect and be completely present.  She inspires me immensely. 

So, oh so soon when Breathe opens its doors on January 1 (actually I will probably be the one to open that door) you can find me there happily puttering around the studio, checking in students, making tea, welcoming new friends and old ones and serving as the studio manager.  Of course I will also be working in the Well Being center at Breathe doing health coaching and selling fun little things in the store.  See!  It's home base for sure!

So welcome to Breathe!  I hope you will love every little detail because believe me, every detail has been considered!

p.s. as soon as we've got the last bit of construction dust kicked off I'll post gobs of delicious photos!
p.p.s and if you read one thing on the site.  Please read the Story of Breathe .  Rob, Melissa and Jennifer's story is beyond amazing.  I've never heard of a better reason for a yoga studio, ever.
