This season seems like the perfect time to once more thank each and every one of you for your business and your heartfelt support! I truly do respect and honor all that each and every one of you embodies.
2009 brought in a variety of ups and downs; and maybe I am not alone in sensing, perhaps a lower energy overall compared to recent years.I feel certain 2010 will bring us a very welcome relief - however small or large- but a relief is welcome none the less.
Lately the opportunity has presented itself to put my practice into play, specifically in the area of non-attachment.The non-attachment I have been encouraged to practice relates to the Indian Blanket that I carry.Many of you know and love the Indian cotton yoga blanket I carry.I love it personally in my own practice and also love to share it with others locally, nationally and internationally.This summer the factory in India shut down (hopefully temporarily) and while there is still a very hopeful possibility that the factory will reopen.We were left wondering where we will find such a beautiful, stable, comparable blanket.Can you hear the non-attachment in my attachment?
Recently I have found a comparable blanket from a different factory.It is lovely as it doesn’t have any seams, it is a 100% natural cotton and it is able to provide stability in all asanas.Even if we do once again stock the original, I hope you will come to love this new addition as well.If you would like to see a sample of the new blanket please let me know and I will happily send one your way.
In the meantime GREAT JOY, LOVE AND LAUGHTER - not only at Christmas and New Years but all the other miraculous days too.

I can’t believe it is slowly creeping into the fall months already! We all talk about how time flies and this expression always brings the truth of living in the moment even stronger to me. And with that being said I have two wonderful adventures ahead for me in the fall; Deva Premal and the Dalia Lama!!!
I have had the opportunity to listen to Deva Premal the last time she was in Calgary two years ago. It was ABSOLUTE HEAVEN. To have that experience of Deva chanting and how it feels resonating into my soul is truly an experience I can not get enough of. I am very joyful to share the experience with my yoga students☺.
To be in the presence of the Dalia Lama for me is a once in a life time experience. I have awesome tickets I wouldn’t have it any other way. I wanted to be as close to him as possible to be in his energy and see his lovely face. The space and love that will be created in the Pengrowth Saddledome will surely create good fortune with the Calgary Flames. Just kidding!!!!
I hope all have survived this recession and are existing in greener pastures. I would like to thank everyone for supporting me and of course their own yoga practice.

Everyone has heard and many believe that the energy of
our thoughts create the events around us. It is the universal law of
attraction. We are like magnets with our thoughts drawing near to us
the energy that we are putting out to the universe. I KNOW this and
have lived by the law for decades. Recently it dawned on me, here I am
listening to the news everyday and getting immersed in all the
negativity of the falling economy. I was getting “frozen” in my day to
day life wondering how my family and I were going to survive.
I
woke up - literally! I have stopped watching the news and I can’t say
enough great things about how I feel. I am back to me - eternally
optimistic and fearless. I am not going to be an ostrich in regards to
what is happening in the market, hiding with my head in the sand
however I am not going to let it run my day. I would invite you to
listen to the news less and live your life more!!
There is no better opportunity than this situation to get to know you my clients and friends.
I
encourage you to answer the following question in hopes of Body-Mind
Workouts being better able to provide you with quality yoga supplies
and service!
If you were running my business what would you do differently?
Please
put any comments or ideas into a return post or Contact Us here. Thank you
for participating in a positive economy, community, planet and universe.

How can Body-Mind Workouts positively impact your life in the next 12 months?
This spring I had the great pleasure to attend a workshop on money mastery. For me the title sounded a bit daunting and even on the edge of being a yawner but getting close to the age of 50 has made me realize that yes I do want to retire one fine decade, not lavishly but at least comfortably. I signed up with a few friends whom I knew would provide me with encouragement and support. I learned a lot on the course and would like to share a few of the highlights with you. One of the most important concepts that I have taken from the course is to treat money as energy. It's simply an energy that is shared with others neither negative nor positive. One of the practices in the workshop was to ask the question to my friends, family and clients: How can I positively impact your life in the next 12 months? We went through this practice and it was amazing to see how in a room of 125 participants we could all help and support each other in different ways. Often the revealed ways of supporting one another become providing services or referring the person to another who would be better able to serve their needs. It usually wasn't about money!
The main reason that I love to provide yoga supplies to yoga teachers, yoga practitioners and yoga studios is not that I just want to sell a yoga mat but that I really want to share a lifestyle I have greatly benefitted from. With this in mind and linking the thought of how best I can serve you in the next 12 months, I would like to provide support to the yoga community in whatever way I can. This could look like, and not be limited to, providing sponsorship for yoga workshops or perhaps providing yoga props for yoga special events. I have the resources to help the Yoga community and I sincerely would like to provide that support. So if there is an opportunity that comes to your mind please give me a call or an email so we can discuss the details. I am here use me~!!
I look forward to serving you in whatever way is needed to make your yoga experience joyful.

The Canadian dollar has strengthened in huge leaps in the past six months and because of this I am very pleased to pass some savings to you,
Body-Mind Workouts’ customers.
Studio Mats
The Body-Mind Workouts Studio Mats are reduced from $16 - $14 (wholesale pricing). The same quality mat for less due!
I have had the great pleasure this fall to be involved with a rather unique meditation group. We have met frequently and gone thru a Zen meditation practice that utilizes a two-person approach called a dyad. With the support of another, practitioners can gain insights into life: the experience has led me to more clearly see my ultimate purpose and that is selfless service, to serve or help others with complete awareness. This clarity has brought a new outlook to me on how I design and walk thru my day, hopefully to a deeper meaning for many dear others in my day-to-day life and a deeper respect and love for myself as well.
I am fortunate to be involved in a business and community such as Yoga where the expression of selfless service is so gratefully received and easily given. I know that if I wanted to earn more I could by selling any widget that would provide a higher profit margin. In past careers I have done exactly that and have received little gratification either in the receiving or giving of service. Body-Mind Workouts is a source of purpose for me and of livelihood for my family and I am grateful that my company and work appeals on many many levels.
Thank you for looking at my web-site, for any inquiries, recommendations and of course for your patronage. I look forward to serving you in whatever way is needed to make your yoga experience joyful.
With Joy and Peace – Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
