Hi friends and fellow substackers.
It’s been a while! I’m resurrecting this baby because I missed it and love the substack community. I paused it cause to be honest I got burned out from writing and poor work/life balance. But lately, I’m feeling like it’s time to bring it back. I’ll be experimenting with new offerings and formats in the coming weeks. I think it’ll still be a weekly Friday (free) public post but I’m in the process of dreaming up exactly what I want this space to be and how to share inspiration and info about art making, writing, filmmaking, nourishing a creative practice and generally staying curious, tuned in and turned on. Feel free to comment on anything you’re interested in seeing/hearing.
Part of me just wants to make this a Yura Borisov appreciation blog.
I kid, I kid. Everyone is losing their minds over his work in ANORA (as they should) but go see him in Compartment No. 6 (Dir. Juho Kuosmanen) too, if you haven’t. Wrote about it a while back on substack here. I dare you to not fall in love. ANYWAY!
For now, I’m dipping my toe back into this space by sharing that I’m starting a zoom yoga class. I’ve taught yoga for twenty years. Jesus, that is a long ass time. I’ve taught in boutique studios in Ojai, Equinox gyms in Soho, investment banks, backyards, and on beaches. You name it I’ve taught there.
Not sure about you but my nervous system has been a wreck recently with the state of the world, work, AND wildfires in Los, Angeles. So much so that doing yoga inside has been really helpful and pretty crucial for my mental health. Hope this will be a useful way to come together and take some time to ground yourself and feel good.
Saturdays 9 am - 10 am PST starting this SAT 1.25.
