Sunday I ran my first race of 2018 - and a Half at that. I love training (mostly). I mean, sometimes it's nice to not think about getting up early, or when I will get out running, a little vacay from it all feels good, but it's important to not settle in to that. And... Continue Reading →
Taking the Practice hOMe
For years I have said I would like to create a home practice, and add meditation into my life. And it's sort of happened in fits and starts - but nothing concrete and sustained. But today, after finishing up some work and wondering what I might want to start on next (after another check of... Continue Reading →
New Month, New Intentions
Hello!!! Yes, I know, it's been awhile since I've written, but I have certainly not been quiet on social media ( @tamturse). With the start of a new month, and a new 18 month planner (I love you Lilly P. planner, your colors brighten my day), I am ready to implement new changes, dedications and intentions....

One change. I am lucky to spend... Continue Reading →

Thoughts on a Marathon, 2 Weeks Later

Musings on a Marathon Manicure
Days, I am days away from the Philadelphia Marathon. It's so close I logged my last long taper run today with 8 miles in the book. It wasn't the best run, but that's ok. Now if you follow me on Instagram (@TamTurse) you see that I am a bit of a girly girl (did you... Continue Reading →
Happy July!!
HI! So the summer is now in full swing, and with my Yoga Teacher Training done, I feel like singing "school's out for summer" but I'm not leaving school far behind since I signed up for not 1 but 2 yoga workshops in July (and then there is my Masters degree I must finish, so... Continue Reading →
Birthdays Are the Time for Resolutions
OK, I know, it's been a few weeks since my last post. I don't have a great excuse, and that's ok. I'm sorry if you missed me but I'm back. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook (which I hope you do), you may know that it was my birthday on Monday. And not... Continue Reading →
