Recently at one of my Feng Shui workshops, I asked everyone to draw a sketch of their home. When I saw Amy's drawing, I was stunned. "You live in an oval house?" I asked her. "No, it's my car." "You live in your car!" I yelled unable to contain my shock. After 1460 nights (yes, I counted) scrunched up in the front seat of her car, Amy is in better shape than most people that have their own bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchens. She credits her good posture to running, a regular yoga practice and taking vitamins daily. Amy shared with me that she has been living in her Mercury Tracer for the last four years. She came to Hollywood from Iowa to pursue a life long dream of being a comedian. This small town...

If you do meditation you will sooner or later feel bad. You can not avoid it. Many people have the incorrect concept that people who are in to meditation, yoga and all that, are walking around on pink fluffy clouds, have a heart of gold and aren't affected by the problems of the world.

If they keep on doing meditation in a successful way they will experience this suffering quite intensely.

The Psoas is the body's main hip flexor which is why it is the main muscle of walking but it plays a deeper maybe more important role as a flexor. Flexors are muscles that bring one body part closer to another one. Flexion's relationship to the nervous system is through our fear response. Our sympathetic nervous system, the system of excitation, from which stems our flight or fight response, manifests through flexion; like all animals in the wild when startled or afraid we automatically react. The psoas is involved in each of these reactions. Life is traumatic and this is not necessarily a bad thing. From the big trauma of being born and taking our first breath to the lesser traumas of day-to-day...

Pillows go back to ancient times and references can be found in Egyptian tombs as well as in Greek Temples. They were used by the wealthy and in fact were made of luxurious materials. The Chinese and Japanese also used pillows but they were often made of a block of wood or stone. We cannot imagine using these as they would be very uncomfortable. Over the centuries pillows were made from a linen case filled with feathers from birds. These feathers could be hen's feathers but the wealthy filled their pillows with smaller and finer feathers such as swan and goose feathers. The smaller the size of the feathers, the more comfortable the pillow and the easier one could "scrunch" it up around one's neck...

The biceps the body part everyone loves, we all know that without the triceps the biceps wouldn't look half as good but training the biceps seems to be more satisfying, well it is for me and some of the people I train with, maybe it's because it's such a small muscle group that not as much effort has to go in to get a good pump now when I say not as much effort I don't mean being lazy I mean not doing 600lb squats as much effort if you get my drift.   There are two heads to the biceps the inner head and the outer head the outer head is a smaller muscle than the inner head but still just as important.   Now when training my arms I sometimes train them on their own once a week or I train them with...

I like martial arts movies, and I like martial arts moves. So, naturally, I'm interested in movies that show techniques for martial arts moves. Now, having grown up on Bruce Lee movies as a kid, and having taken up Jiu Jutsu as an adult, and dabbled with Jeet Kune Do, I've always had an interest in nunchucks. So, I've been looking for a nunchucks training DVD. Now, I'll be honest, when I was a kid, my brother and I made nunchucks and tried to use them - trying to do the moves we saw Bruce Lee do in Enter The Dragon and Fists of Fury. And man, did we clobber ourselves good. As I got older, I decided there had to be better ways to learn nunchucks than battering the back of my own head with them...
