Excercise on Demand

Happy Mother's Day mamas! So, its been a while since you've seen Mama L posting, but I've been thinking of you, and admit that I just haven't been able to focus, and find the energy lately with some other things happening in our lives. I hope you all enjoyed your day. I felt so lucky to spend some time with my own lovely mom, and family today.

Speaking of time and engergy mamas, I have 3 little incredible words for you that have me fired up. Excercise on Demand! Yes, it's true! Who knew that finding the time and range of excerise options could be so easily available? You see, after the birth of Master L, I became an obsessive fan of Kula Yoga, and found myself treking to the studio several times a week. But, after more than a year of intense dedication, I confided to Mama H that I was starting to burn out from my Kula practice. Then, to my horror, I had let week after week slip by on what was intended as a little break. Before I knew it, it had been almost 3 months since I attended. Though I substituted my fitness regime with other (somewhat fulfilling routines), I started to really miss my practice. As Mama H knows, once you miss a few weeks at Kula it becomes way too scary to go back. I would never be able to keep up. So, desperate for a quick yoga fix the other night, I decided to cruise through our hundreds of unwatched cable channels with the hope of finding some kind of yoga infomecial I could, at the very least, follow along to. Ready to give up, I stumbled on channel 1025. Yoga (all levels), pilates, cardio sculpt, aerobics, sexy beach bod, post baby bod, hollywoood bod, YOU NAME IT, its offered!! Mamas, I tell you its been a yogathon weekend! While its not my beloved Kula studio, at least I'll be able to keep up once I can set foot back there again. If you're in the big apple, Time Warner has most likely hooked you up too!

After this amazing discovery, I couldn't anticpate more for a weekend, but it was also Mister M and my 5 year wedding anniversary. I hope to share more on this in another post. Now, I am heading to the coach to recuperate from it all.

  1. What a brilliant discovery! I wish we had cable here... Actually we don't even have a TV here! Maybe buying some exercise DVDs is a good reason to get one - I might shift my huge butt off my office chair.

  2. Yes! Genius! And now, never an excuse to sit on one's butt at home (whatever the size, although it's hard to imagine Mama N with a huge one).

  3. I love it - yoga-on-demand! I can't wait to try it!! Maybe when I call Comcast in SF to set up our cable I should first check with them to make sure they offer yoga-on-demand. It has been two weeks since I have been to Kula and now I am scared to go. I'll put on Channel 1025 instead in the comfort of my own home without intimidation! Namaste Mama L!
