I'm starting to think my brain is as hollow as a dried up coconut and I have nothing interesting to say or worthy of sharing. My dear Isabelle, is of course, taking up much free time and getting me off the computer which I think is very healthy. I think of my fellow RescueGirls, however, and I want to keep in touch and keep sharing! So here is the latest (in no particular order). I'm slowly finishing up Yoga to the Rescue #4 iPhone/iTouch app. I'm thankful to have this low-overhead option in this bare bones economy. My last printing of yoga decks cost $36,000 (gag!) and rolling a yoga app out costs nothing, but cleverness and time and I certainly have some of that! I may not even print my second yoga book which I'm working on, too. I may just do this digital stuff for awhile. I do love paper though and collect all sorts of nifty paper when I travel, from envelopes to ticket stubs, so I think I'll always be printing some RescueGirl bling onto paper!

I've been enjoying my summer a little too much. My husband, Bryan, has discovered how to make these amazing tiki drinks with rum. I'm calling him a mixologist instead of a musician now. Basically, alcohol is a poison, so whenever I drink it I feel guilty and apologize to my liver; I also load up on Milk Thistle which is a miracle helper for our precious livers.

I also must confess, I'm obsessed with my mini trampoline and yoga (for the time being) has taken a back seat. Why a mini trampoline? I created a set of healthy flash cards a while back and I made one of them all about bouncing. Bouncing is a wonderful way for your one-way valve lymphatic system to get rid of toxins that build up in the body. I read so much amazing stuff about bouncing (my favorite, it tightens skin!) that I went out and bought my trampoline. I also have to be very frank, just 5 minutes of bouncing on a trampoline is the equivalent of 15 minutes of jogging and to me this is music to my ears. I learned this tidbit from one of my favorite health gurus, Gillian McKeith, from the show, You are What You Eat. A show that makes you throw the donut in the trash and drink kale juice. Here is a copy of the Bouncing flash card I created.

And here's just a quick blurb on the benefits of trampolining: http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Trampoline---Incredible-Health-Benefits&id=133206

Oh, and I forgot to mention one of the best things about bouncing up and down...it reminds you to not take life so seriously and to let your inner child out!

Have a happy, bouncy weekend!

Hey fabulous Rescuegirls! I just wanted to share that Bully Paws, the amazing organization that I adopted Isabelle from is going to build a kennel which they are in desperate need of for our fellow furry friends. They need to raise $35,000 and if everyone can give just a tiny bit then their dream will be realized. I don't know if you know this, but pit bulls get the very short end of the stick at many shelters, often they are not even allowed to be adopted out, so Bully Paws is providing an incredible service for these special dogs. It only takes a second (I just did it and I feel the good karma flowin'), so please stop by and throw in a few dollars if you can. The link is http://www.firstgiving.com/bullypaws and their website is bullypaws.org. With much gratitude, Amy
