flux.

I practice yoga, running, and cycling several times a week (mainly to stay sane). For my yoga practice, I typically visit the TruYoga studios because it’s convenient – they’re downstairs from my office – and the roster of rotating teachers is incredible. Lately, I’ve been branching out a bit by taking advantage of Groupons and other deals in an effort to try new styles and mix it up a bit.

I noticed in tonight’s class over at Core Power Yoga that the studio offered bottled water to drink – but it was in glass containers, not plastic. It’s such a simple idea that makes so much sense. We already know that plastic bottles are not only toxic but wasteful.  It was great to see a little system in place where glass bottles were implemented. There was definitely some style happening there, too!

I wear a whistle around my neck that Andy gave me.  I receive compliments on it all the time. It’s a great companion piece because it gives me a chance to tell a story about something important (It’s not like someone compliments me and I give them this long-winded story – well, that only happened once. Sorry, Brock!).

Falling Whistles is a non-profit organization that’s campaigning for peace in the Congo. The sale of their whistles raises money for education, advocacy, and the rehabilitation of war-affected people there.

This fall marks a historic year because for the first time in a generation, the people of the Democratic Republic of Congo have the chance to vote in a free and fair election.
