Do Vegans Smell Better?

Several times last week I received random, unsolicited comments about my (non) body odor. This isn't the first time it's happened in the last 30 days. Not sure if it's the Bikram or the veganism, but something flushed all that bad juju out of my body.

1. While Biking with a friend last week, she comments on my wonderful "perfume" as she sped past me. Huh?
2. While out at a club with friends getting sweaty on the dance floor, someone commented that my sweat smelled nice. Say What?
3. While waiting in line with my friend at a bar, several people asked me what perfume I was wearing. Again--duh?

Eau de Bikram? Very Vegan?

Lock Your Knee

Lock your knee! I think I have heard this phrase about a gazillion times in the last 4 months. I often fantasize about locking my knee. Since I have been unemployed, I have committed to deepen my Bikram practice by attending every day! I think I am on day 100+. The amazing thing is that I don't even keep track anymore. The first 30 days were a struggle. But as Bikram says: " Give me 60 days and I will change your life!" It wasn't a joke.

Bikram's yoga has made me feel so good both mentally & physically that I have become completely obsessed! I often find myself google-ing postures on the internet into the wee hours of the morning. My husband suggested that I should teach. After much self-reflection and many locked knees later, I just sent in my completed application to Fall 2010 Teacher Training!!

Woo-Hoo! I can't wait! I just hope I will be as excellent of a teacher as the my teachers at the Sweatbox.
