halfmoon haiku
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 30, 2008
What enchants you? Watching Sasha Cohen mesmerizes me and inspires me to run to my mat.
On the same day I found that video, I read Dr. Jay’s recent post from Yoga for Cynics. Here’s an excerpt:
A friend always tells me when I’m being Zen-like and irritating…particularly when, just after yoga class, I seem unable to [...]
Thanksgiving
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 26, 2008
My mother’s mouth was always tight. I don’t know, but I guess that that was where she held on- for dear life I’d add. Really, so many kids, so many bills, a husband out of work, a huge house, readjusting to life as a nurse . . . I don’t think that I’d have any [...]
Winter yoga
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 24, 2008
I’m looking at a scene of pure white splendor—that’s what snow does—it blankets the past in a blinding beauty. All the mud and crud: the leaves I never got around to raking, the straggling weeds I didn’t pull, the floppy detritus of hostas, tomatoes, daylillies that I never gathered and hauled to the compost bin—all [...]

centering podcast
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 19, 2008
Here it is~Laughing Yogini’s inaugural podcast : centering.
You can use it as a stand-alone, short relaxation or you can use it as a prelude to yoga asana practice. It is meant for practicing, so shut the door, turn off your cell phone and begin to breathe mindfully with me. What fun! If you’ve never ever [...]
CENTO of LONGING
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 14, 2008
A Cento of Longing after Neruda
To survive myself I forge you like a weapon.
Because of all that I was, I bear only these scars.
The memory of you emerges from the night around me—
such a passion of weeping tied to my body!
While light wraps you in its mortal flame,
everything bears me farther away, as though [...]
Shangri-La?
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 11, 2008
Here I am: in a home heated comfortably in a community I’ve lived in for over twenty years, with running water, stocked pantry, computer with Internet access, walls lined with books, downstairs yoga studio, garden filled with flowers, vegetables, fruit trees, a running car, clothing that more than fills my needs, and all this within [...]
carolyn’s rice pudding recipe
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 9, 2008
A Yogini’s Recipes for Happiness
Here’s a basic outline of my rice pudding recipe that will easily serve a dozen hungry folks:
Ingredients:
1 cup rice
(you can use any kind, brown, basmati, fancy wild, sticky white…whatever, I’ve tried most and they all seem to work with this method of long cooking)
1/2 gallon milk
(I prefer organic skim milk. In [...]
eat pray love
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | November 8, 2008
Though I stumbled upon Elizabeth Gilbert’s eat pray love by chance in the famous Portland bookstore, Powell’s City of Books, it had already been on the New York Times Bestseller list for over two years. I loved the story then and still do, so when I was asked to contribute to a discussion about [...]
