A New Yoga and Pilates Blog at b5media - Yay!

You know I love Pilates, but now that I am getting ready for another FET (frozen embryo transfer) I still don’t have answers as to how much and when I can reintroduce Pilates back into my routine post-transfer.
I’ve finally decided (after a few false starts) that I am down with Yoga. But I’m still not […]

Which Comes First, Chicken or the Egg? Stress or Infertility?

You know that I am trying to embrace a mind-body connection during this cycle. I’ve been talking about prana and Qi. I am guessing some of my real life friends are scratching their heads thinking, “what’s gotten into her?”
Well, if I ask myself truthfully, I guess I trust my mind more than my body. I […]

Rub Some of That Baby Aura on Me

Many women (and men) in the midst of trying to conceive and having some trouble will start to avoid social situations where they know they will encounter pregnant women or babies. While these sights don’t usually bother me, I can understand how seeing others who have something you want so badly but don’t have (yet) […]

So, Do I Need to Ditch the Soy?

Because that would suck.
Not a big fan of tofu so that’s no big deal, but in this non-milk drinking household, my organic vanilla soy milk is my morning delight. The yum in my cereal. The smooth in my smoothies. Could I live without it? Sure. But I’d rather not.
What’s she on about?

b5media Theme Day - School’s Out! What are You Doing to Continue Your Sex/Fertility Education?

All of the commenters on this post agreed that yes, definitely, more information on fertility issues and infertility should be shared as part of one’s education. Perhaps in sex ed; perhaps in psychology. I even put in a vote for it as a topic to be covered in “Christian Marriage” or “Social Justice” for those […]

A Yoga Epiphany

It happened.
Tonight around 7 p.m.
I went to a yoga class that absolutely kicked *ss (and kicked my *ass to boot). It was fabulous. It was wonderful. It was hard!!! Holy crap is your body supposed to do that? Frankly, I was amazed at what my own body was doing. I had no idea.
Unlike the morning […]

Comebacks for Those Phrases You Hate to Hear

You remember the Sticks and Stones series, right? That’s when me and my pal Angelique from Breaking the Mirror put together some of the comments we hate to hear and asked you to comment on them, which many of you did. Thanks!
For those of you who were left speechless, or at least at a loss […]
