Bonjour! Welcome to the 127th edition of the Hip Tranquil Chick podcast: a guide to life on and off the yoga mat.

Omwork: To encourage a sense of diving deeper into today’s podcast, I will post Omwork relating to this segment on our HTC forum. Please connect with fellow HTCs there and play with the following:

1. What transitions are occurring your life right now?
2. How can you stay tranquil and grounded during the chaos?
3. What new seeds would you like to plant?

Congratulations on the move! Loved the podcast - it is so good to reflect back on such a huge event. The studio looks amazing (especially love the wood on the changing room) and the cushions.... enjoy your opening party.

I stopped by the new studio this weekend and it looks fantastic -- congrats!!

I'd love to sew my own meditation cushion. Can your mom share her pattern??

CMB said...

My hubby and I listen to your podcast when we're commuting to grad school. You and Beau make such a great podcasting team! We'd love for you to bring him on more often for a male perspective on living a yoga lifestyle. :-) Congrats on the big move!

Super yay that you are back but it was worth the wait! I loved listening to you and HTB chatting about your life-altering transition. What a learning experience!
For ideas for future podcasts - can you discuss the beginnings of starting a teaching practice? How to make contacts, what types of classes to offer, etc.
Thank you!!!
