To Blog or Not to Blog...That is the Question

…And a funny question at that.

​I recently read that before you start an official blog, you need to introduce it.  The WHY!  So a few posts into this process, here's my take on why I started this blog...

What could I say that anyone else would care to read about; be entertained by; laugh at; shake their head in disbelief at; or bother to continue reading week after week?  I am not remotely interesting.   I'm a regular Washington, DC, area desk jockey...a Federal employee with a side gig teaching yoga. 

Boring, square, dorky, and maybe even a little dull, right?  Yes, I just described myself as dull...as little thought bubbles of my misspent youth gleefully dance in my head.

I mean, after all, my name is not Miley Cyrus.  I'm not a media darling.  I don’t have a spray tan (I’ve had them and they are sticky!), a bad 80's haircut (what's up with Miley's hair these days?  I get that era is cool again but ppppplease not the hair!) and I definitely don’t know how to twerk (even though she hasn't done that recently, we all know her extraordinary ability at it.).

So since this is a yoga blog and speaking of twerking--like that seque--I substitute instructed for an early morning class once (at the height of the twerking craze).  Now combine that with having a head cold...and you can see where this is leading.  My abilities to think on my feet were limited and my words mighty jumbled.  I actually told a student to correct the alignment of his knee by:

“Since you don’t want to twerk your knee and hurt yourself—I mean tweak”.

Ohhh Nooo-Did I really say that!!???

Thankfully, my one lone student in the class-a man-just smiled and laughed it off.  I never received a termination letter from the gym for sexual harassment so I assumed all was well.   

Now that we have covered spray tans, tweaked knees, and mind fog, let’s see if I can write an interesting blog about yoga and all the awesome individuals, ideas, and ponderings related to yoga…with a little smattering of my silly musings.

SOOO…step right up and feast your eyes on a most incredible and marvelous wonder that will astound and amaze you with its spectacular feats of peril and mischief!!

    I AM Boundless Bliss Yoga. Just me.  I'm a one-lady band. I'm a yoga therapist. I didn't start out to be a yoga therapist,  I just wanted to learn more and SHAAAZZAMM...here I am.

    I'm far from your stereotypical yogi.  I cuss a lot.  I have a dark sense of humor.  You might actually see me in a Jack Daniels t-shirt teaching.  You will never hear me say, "Notice how your buttocks blossoms as you breathe into it".  WTF does that even mean and how would you do that? 

    But what I do know and what you will learn from me is...yoga works.  It challenges. It empowers.  It heals.  

    And that's why I teach.
