LOLLAPALOOZA PLAYLIST & concert memories

 So with Lollapalooza coming up this weekend (and since I won't be there this weekend..wahh) I thought it would be fun to have a LollaPalooza themed playlist and share a preview of the 2012 lineup!




Link to Spotify Lollapalooza Playlist


 "Choose not a life of imitation." Such a great line from one my favorite RHCP songs! (I actually didn't feature it on this playlist specifically..they're so many RHCP songs to choose from) I'd definitely have to agree that those are some "lyrics to live by."

I love pretty much all of these bands and seeing this year's lineup actually reminds me of some of the concerts I've been to back home in California...brings back some great memories of great times spent with some of my best friends. It's amazing how music can bring people together..how you can literally feel the energy of the crowd...how a song that you love so much can completely lift you up and have you jumping up and down in the air (or even motivate you to push that much harder in your own daily workout!).

San Diego Street Scene 2006 w/ my sister Ria, our friend Kris & my BFFF Glen (saw Kanye West, Bloc Party, Snoop Dogg)
Girl Talk at the Grove in Anaheim 2009 w/ the "U R Club" w/ Glen, Ana & Cristelle ( we had to bring the most amount of recycled cans to get VIP passes)
 COACHELLA 2009 hands down...the best concert I've been to in my life!!!

TruHarmony Yoga & Lululemon

Since TruHarmony Yoga was chosen as "studio of the month" I got to teach a complimentary class at the Lululemon 900 N Michigan Ave. store and it was so much fun!

The staff was so great and even had me to come in to do a fun photoshoot modeling some of their new products!
I decided to go with the "Optimal Tank" in Pow Pink with metallic silver. It's a fun bright neon color that I thought would be great for the summer; not only for teaching but to wear in my own practice!
I love the design in the back with the double straps and the built-in bra that provides plenty of support (also comes with removable cups to add more shape and coverage). The staff at Lululemon were nice enough to give me this top as  a thank you for teaching a complimentary class for their store! (YAY!!!)
I loved this top so much that I even wore it at TruHarmony Yoga's "Keep Calm and Party On" event and paired it with a BCBG skirt and stilettos. The moisture wicking Luxtreme fabric also kept me from sweating through my shirt when I was getting down on the dance floor. =P

Yoga Class Schedule

Friday 7/13/12
Saturday 7/14/12
Sunday 7/15/12

  • COMPLIMENTARY Vinyasa Yoga Class at Lululemon 900 N Michigan Ave. 11AM-12PM
  •  TruHarmony Yoga is "Studio of the Month" at Lululemon & I'll be teaching!!!

2nd Edition of "What's in my Yogi Bag"
I LOVE my new "Surf 'n' Turf" Tote in beachy floral dune print.

It's the perfect bag for the summer that fits all my yogi essentials but also is water resistant so it's just what I need when taking it to the beach. The tote also has an interior removable bag, which comes in handy if you want to separate your wet clothes, towels, etc. 

What's Inside?
A summer essential! It's hydrating and light, so it doesn't leave a greasy feeling on your skin. It's also pretty water resistant so still stays after teaching yoga. =) I also still get a pretty decent tan after applying this sunscreen, but don't get burned. (also necessary if your'e doing some beach yoga!)

Pictured is the deodorant bar but I actually recommend using the body lotion. It's not featured on the website, but you can find it at the store in Wicker Park. (they have the cutest beauty supplies there too soaps and bars shaped like cupcakes & cakes) This lotion not only smells great but it's lightweight and absorbs excess sweat & elminates odor keeping you smelling fresh.

 
It's not as heavy as a regular foundation and also has SPF 25 that provides great coverage for my skin. There's an array of shades you can get from light to medium complexions (I use toasted beige).

My favorite pair of sunglasses ever. Polarized lens. Classic frame that comes in all kinds of prints & colors to suit your fancy. nuff' said.

Yoga Sculpt Teacher Training was just one of the steps of my yogi journey, but it definitely changed my life ever since. I would have never even dreamed three years upon moving to Chicago that this would be what I am doing now, but I couldn't be happier. Currently I'm reading "Living Your Yoga"and I really like how she explains "What is Yoga?"
  • "Yoga helps us to remove all obstructing mental clouds, so that we may come to enjoy the sunshine within. It's an extensive program of reeducation through which we learn, step by step, to live in the light of our true nature. Only when we have truly found ourselves will be able to live in peace, harmony, & happiness in the world."
One of my favorite quotes is that "Life isn't about finding yourself; life is about creating yourself." So although you might not have everything figured out, it's about taking each day and appreciating that moment...living in the present moment.
