friday fünf

I finished up two years of yoga teacher training last weekend and this week, I’ve been relaxing. I sure as heck don’t miss taking tests. Growing up, the morning of a big test or sports tryout, my dad would stick a note of encouragement on my bathroom mirror. I moved them to the side of […]
