This can lead to rapid weight loss, but it’s often due to water loss, reduced glycogen stores, and muscle breakdown—not fat loss. Once solid foods are reintroduced, most people regain the lost…

726 An open letter to all new yoga teacher trainees out there. This is an exerpt from the Aham Yoga 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training manual. “A deep sense of humility will help you learn Yoga.

1.2K As a women doing Yoga, I was lucky enough to be with teachers who understood the human body and a women’s well-being very well.  My yoga teachers taught me from day one that certain yoga poses are to be avoided during menstruation. As I made my move from India to the US, I noticed that a lot of yoga teachers do not guide women on how to practice on the days of their cycle.

In large skillet, on medium-high, heat sesame oil and sauté chili, garlic, and ginger for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly to keep garlic from burning. Add crushed peppercorns and lower heat slightly. Drain bok choy pieces and, without drying them, add to pan and sauté for a further 2 minutes, stirring constantly. The garlic should start to get crispy, but if it doesn’t, turn heat up slightly. Add vinegar and remove from heat.
