🙏Health Tips:

Studies suggest that regular yoga practice reduces stress levels. Increased stress can have many negative effects, one is decreased sexual desire! Yoga may also help improve overall sexual function according to Harvard’s research.

There is no such thing as an 'at-need' population

Last night, my husband offered his connections to private drug and alcohol rehab facilities as a resource for my upcoming counseling internship. I replied, “Thanks, but I think I’d rather work with more at need populations than in the expensive private facilities.”

As soon as I said it, I caught myself. Do I truly believe any one population needs help with drug and alcohol addiction more than another? I hear this argument applied to yoga often. They will say, “Yoga studios are always in rich neighborhoods, and the people who really need yoga can’t afford it.”

Well, I’m calling your bullshit and my own, too. Everyone needs help. Everyone needs access to counseling, and everyone needs access to yoga. More important than our needs, though, is our rights. We all have a right to resources that will help us be healthier, happier and more fulfilled. People at the highest levels of the corporate ladder struggle to claim that right just as much as people at the lowest.

I know that may not seem true at first glance, but if you spend some time among the world’s wealthiest, you will find that it is. You see, it’s not being poor that’s hard. It’s not being tired or sick that’s hard. It’s not even being addicted that’s hard. It’s being human. This being human is riddled with challenges from physical health and financial stability to personal fulfillment and spiritual satisfaction. Because being human is hard, people have discovered tools for helping us simply cope with a life full of questions. One of those tools is counseling; which, really, is just a formalized way of saying we share our experiences, best practices and listening ears. Another of those tools is yoga; which, really, is just a formalized way of saying we spend time in self-care to try and remember that we may be human, but we are not just human.

Whatever tools you have to share to make someone else’s life easier, share them. If you charge two dollars or two thousand dollars, you are still helping make the world a better place. We need all kinds of people at all kinds of income levels and social statuses to help fund the public good. We need the corporate types – those people who will fund breakthroughs in technology, engineering, economics, health and human advancement – and we need the counselors and the yoga studios who will serve those people. We also need the dreamers, the artists and the lovers – those people who will serve as the moral compass to direct where the funds go – and we need the counselors and the yoga studios who will serve those people.

We need all types, and we need to serve all types. We are all in this together.

A cause we support

Bgrace founder, Bernadette Moore stumbled upon a 4:30 yoga class at Bikram Pasadena Yoga Studio 13 years ago; and from then on she's been hooked. As a yoga instructor and ambassador for social change, Bernadette has since donated time, energy and yoga postures to her local community.

One such organization is UpRising Yoga (URY). They provide yoga to at-risk youth and communities who need it the most. URY teaches classes every Tuesday night at Los Angeles Juvenile Hall. They follow the belief that yoga has the power to help heal individuals regardless of the setting. Bgrace was happy to provide gifts to the youth at the Los Angeles Juvenile Hall URY annual holiday party, in support of their cause.

Once upon a time, it was really important for me to buy all my yoga props from an eco-friendly Chicago company, but they sent me the wrong blocks. So I drove to the southside, found my way along a maze of warehouse hallways, got a first hand glimpse at the workers making my props, and enjoyed this quaint little scene. #ethicalconsumerism #chicago #yogaforgood
