Yoga reminds us to be mindful
I tried rolling cat-cow for first time since my toe injury. My toe did ok! Yoga reminds us to be mindful and compassionate to ourselves. Every day is a blessing, just to be here. If my toe never learns to curl again, that’s all right. I’m just grateful it’s healing as best it can. What are you grateful for today? #namaste

lovely yoga session
I had a lovely yoga session modified for my injured foot. Many people deal with far more challenging issues. I’m grateful it’s just one foot and that, slowly but surely, it’s healing. #namaste

Lovely yoga session
Lovely yoga session. I’m still dealing with the foot injury, but every day helps a little bit. I need to keep the rest of me healthy. You probably knew that the act of frowning actively makes you less happy, but did you know that slouching also triggers the mind to be less happy? Find ways to sit up straighter! #namaste

lovely yoga session
I enjoyed a lovely yoga session. My injured foot is still not quite right, but I found ways to modify poses to accommodate that. Every day can make a difference. If you’re having a challenge sticking with your exercise, try adding music! #namaste

Evening meditation time
Evening meditation time. For my friends with asthma, consider adding yoga to your day. It’s shown by numerous studies to help breathing immensely, in part because of the various exercises which work the lungs in a gentle manner. #namaste

Wax Tablets in Medieval Times
Did you know wax tablets were used from 2000BC through to the 1800s for note-taking? They were heavily used in the medieval era. I have a few of my reviews lambasting me for including this “anachronistic” item – which baffles me. The steady, continuous use of the wax tablet is well documented. I’m now updating my book’s initial description, intro pages, and appendices to cover the wax tablet usage in more detail, if there are really people out there who feel strongly that wax tablets weren’t in use for some reason. It just baffles me – I didn’t think this was something I’d have to explain in this level of detail.
Here’s the book, where a character does use a wax tablet …

Here’s just one of countless historical images showing people from all time periods using wax tablets –
And a whole article about wax tablet usage in Medieval times –

Evening meditation time
Evening meditation time. I had a lovely day. This morning I taught a seminar on marketing books. One of the attendees (who attended my previous two sessions too, on writing and publishing) gave me this lovely scarf in thanks!! I then spent the day writing. Now I’m making hearts out of my old-version medieval romance book pages – books I would no longer sell / give away because I’ve changed the storyline since then. I’m loving the hearts!! :). They’ll make great table decor for my upcoming book club meeting! #Namaste
