Index of Tidbits

Hi all!

Is it the weather?  It seems I always come back around to this in February!  And now it's 2023.  (yikes!) 

I finished my Zero Balancing Classes and became certified in August of 2020.  Since then I've also taken classes in Rossiter Coaching and became a coach for a little while.  (ie I now know the technique, but you won't find me listed there anymore.)   I am keeping up my Zero Balancing and Ortho-bionomy classes and status.

I finished my three years of yoga-related Body Mind Centering classes in August of 2019.  I continue to use this!  It is a vast approach to bodies and minds.

As always, I still play with incorporating what I learned into my life and my horse relationships.   I continue to explore Alexander, Feldenkrais, Somatics, and the latest in the horse world.   

Going forward, I hope to add in new articles incorporating my new learning along with old golden nuggets.

Enjoy,

Lynn

"The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities." 

~ James Allen
