Welcome to Yogi Sticks!

Do you know your Gomukasana from your Adho Mukha Svanasana? Is your Vrksasana all it can be? And how do you feel about Supta Baddha Konasana? Do you know what I'm even talking about?

Sometimes the Sanskrit - however beautiful it sounds - is not very helpful. So, to encourage my students to expand their yoga practice into their home, I sketch the poses we practice during class on a chart and add the Sanskrit and common name. Hopefully, this is a useful tool to help them along in their yogic journey. I also troll the internet, books, and journals to find interesting articles about yoga and the yogic lifestyle.

YUMMY!


I just got back from eating at Beirut Cafe - a new Lebanese restaurant in Seminole. It was so delicious! Everything is homemade and beautifully done. We had the sampler platter with hummus, baba ganoush, tabbouleh (best I have ever had - lots of tomatoes), and labneh (pictured above) along with a few other things. Then, of course, we had dessert which included pistachio baklava with rose water.

A lovely couple runs the cafe - taking turns in the kitchen and at the register. The owner said they are always adding items to the menu, and many dishes are vegetarian. I hope you can find time to try it out - you can get it all to go, too.
Beirut Cafe is at 5281 Park Street (just north of Kohl's). YUMMY!
