At a certain point amidst this pandemic something started to nag at me. I wasn’t able to talk to you. I couldn’t find out what is going on with you, ask you questions about your family and how your body is feeling. I was starting to feel a bit lost.And then, I thought of all […]
As much as we all need time off I have to admit a day of non-scheduled time makes me anxious. It’s like a kid in a candy store there are so many tasks to choose from I can’t decide which one to do and I end up not getting anything done. I check my phone […]
You may be thinking geesh, that’s a silly question, of course I am!But really, how many times do you push gifts away and say, “I can’t take that”, “you shouldn’t have”, or worse, reject compliments by saying, “you don’t mean that”, “that’s what you say to everyone”, “stop lying”. If this sounds familiar to you […]

But, the truth is…that’s all wrong! Although these are the positive-side benefits of a yoga practice, they are far from the true […]
I’ve been hearing it from the teachers at the studio. They feel lost. Not sure what to do. How to plan their lives. With 5 yoga/Pilates studios closed since this all began the reality is sinking in. But here at Fuller Yoga, we are hopeful. We just purchased more Pilates Reformers so we can have […]
In the era of Coronavirus who knows what the answers are? Here in Connecticut our Governor Ned Lamont is telling us that gym/studios can open as of June 17th. However, we must be 6 ft apart and wear masks. Or, we can be 12 ft apart and not wear masks. I prefer no masks. So, […]
