Choosing A Frequent Flyer Credit Card

...you have to compare the rewards.

Does one frequent flyer credit card offer more rewards than another? Do they have special rewards for retailers you use most often? How many air miles are required before they can be deemed useful to you or your business?

Many cards are focused on specific airlines. Therefore, if you prefer to fly with a specific airline such as Delta, United, or American, you should look for a card that offers air miles when you make purchases at that specific airline. These types of credit cards offer more miles if you use the card to book your flights, upgrade, or use other travel services offered by the airline.

It is important to make sure you understand all terms and conditions as they apply to the fre...more

Should You travel to a Christmas Party?

...When you do travel, make sure that book early, the earlier the better; this allows you to make sure that you get your seat, usually gets you a discount, and simplifies life. Air travel is advised, as its safer and quicker; not only will you get there faster and be able to return faster, but do it with a better chance of returning. Buses and trains may be great most of the year (as they allow some sightseeing), but are lousy around the holidays due too crowding and are limited to weather. If it all possible, do not drive; its the slowest form of travel, and you may face too many slow-downs.

When traveling, make sure that your papers are in order; havin...more

Teaching Hatha Yoga: Cueing Insights

...Have you ever heard a Yoga teacher cue without thinking? Did you ever wonder if cueing was actually covered in his or her Yoga teacher training? Lets take a look at some common mistakes Yoga teachers make when cueing.

Most Yoga students retain information by actually performing a technique. Some studies estimate that 90% of all people learn by doing. In comparison, only a small percentage (10 to 20%) of your Yoga students will retain what you demonstrate or what they hear.

Below are some examples of what never to do when cueing your Yoga students.

The Introverted Yoga Instructor

Over the past few decades, I have found introverted Yoga teachers to be some of the kindest, warmest, and gentlest souls on this planet. If you fall into this category, speaking up is the biggest obstacle you have in front of you.

For the sake of your own Yoga students, please set an audio record...more

Yoga, Dogma, And Faith

...onal chinese Medicine meridians. The meridians can be thought of as channels similar to blood vessels, in that they have a particular location on the body, and a perceivable form. But instead of holding blood, they hold energy, or 'ki'.

They don't hold the energy of a particular religious affiliation. There are not Muslim meridians, Christian meridians, Jewish meridians, Hindu meridians, Buddhist meridians, or any other particular group's. These meridians are shared by everyone who has a human biology. And the yoga exercises are simply a way of facilitating the organic flow of energy in each individual. They are designed to release any blockages, and improve the circulation of energy, in the same way that exercise does for blood.

It was in this spirit that I suggested some oki yoga exercises to my cousin when I was 20. My cousin, however, declined. That branch of my family held a particularly strict interpretation of christianity. When ...more

Yoga Teachers Lead by Example (Part 3)

... complications in the student / teacher relationship, but try to be as friendly as possible.

Relationships with your Yoga students should be balanced and kept intact. Yoga teachers should avoid using their position for leverage or special favors. If you are having feelings beyond the usual Yoga teacher / Yoga student relationship, you should seek qualified advice, do some soul searching, or withdraw yourself from the situation.

The Yoga studio is not a romantic playground, or part of a dating service, for Yoga teachers. As a Yoga teacher, your relationship is founded upon the trust of your students. You also want to avoid fueling any distractions from Yoga practice.

Lastly, y...more
