I recently moved to Los Angeles…sort of. Upon arriving in our new condo, my brother and I discovered a significant mold growth along the baseboard. Contractors, sleaze-ball property managers, and two mucous secreting frenchies later…the self-work had begun. I’ll spare you the details, but let me just say this – if you see mold get

As some of you who follow me on social media know well by now, I’ve spent the last several days in Hawaii… Nothing like a tropical trip to make followers in snowbound Denver perk up and smash that like button (follow me @outlawyogi on Instagram, and friend me at /outlawyoga on Facebook by the way).

I did something new and different…out of my comfort zone and, frankly, out of my character the other day… I bought groceries…online. And I gotta say, I liked it I have Amazon Prime in order to get free shipping on the shit that I buy online. I also have a predictable diet. I don’t do

Anytime someone asks you about ‘drugs’ it is important to respond noncommittally, sort of like if they ask you if you can help them move this weekend. “Why? You tryin’ to get into

I was talking with my brother the other day and we realized that it had been a while since I’d finished a painting…we actually had to consult my Instagram feed (follow @outlawyogi if you like) to find out that it had been since May. May!? I felt a mixture of emotions…shame, defeat, hopelessness…all mixing in

I’ve been trying on a pretty radical practice lately…I’ve been drinking more water. Most days anyways – why is it so fucking hard to drink water? For whatever reason I don’t particularly like the stuff… Sure, if it’s super hot and I’ve been working hard and haven’t had anything to drink for a while, and

With the more ever present potential of shelter-in-place orders, civil unrest, and flat out disaster I found it apropos to share what I know about packing a “go-bag”… I’m not trying to paint myself as a survival expert here – too much responsibility – but, what’s a “survival expert” if not someone who has gone

Happy end-of-summer – the blog is back! I’ve been going pretty hard lately… In some ways I’m teaching and working more now that the studio’s closed…getting our groundbreaking online teacher training released and open to ongoing enrollment…also, the sky seems to be falling? And the coming months promise to be even fuckier. Anyone with me?

I spent the last ten days sweating and being gently coaxed to overeat at a place I affectionately call, “Granny camp” (video below). A master of self-reliance, my Granny, has lived on her own on the family farm in Northern Michigan for the last ten+ years. Before that she’s been a mother to 4, a
