Shandali Yoga Towel Review

Quite some time ago, I began to take Yoga classes in an effort to calm the inner insanity, and what I thought was going to be a chill-Zen type of a thing is actually a bit of a workout. So, I learned rather quickly that sweating was part of the deal and that a “shared” Yoga mat wasn’t going to work for me. Enter the Shandali Yoga Towel …

The Shandali GOSWEAT Yoga Towel is a large -- 26.5” wide x 72” -- highly absorbent towel that fits perfect over a Yoga mat and is designed to prevent slipping and creates a hygienic layer between you and the mat. The material is super soft, made of Micro-fiber: 80% Polyester/20% Nylon, and weighs about 350 grams. The performance of the towel is great and it doesn’t move during exercising. I’ve washed the towel several times and there’s been no shrinking or fading.

To get your own please visit Shandali on Amazon. :) Oh and they have a 30 day return policy. 

Pimsleur Spanish 1 Language Learning Course Review

Um … for those who know me, this isn’t the first time that I’ve tried to teach myself Spanish. I blame my inability to obtain fluency in any language (English included) on one Madame Bianeque. This woman was my French tyrant … oops … I mean teacher and she essentially terrorized me. I still have nightmares, but I digress.

The aforementioned story is about as interesting as the 16 CD/ 30 Lesson Pimsleur Spanish 1 Gold Edition ($345 currently on sale for $115). Yes, it’s been featured on PBS and has a reputation for being an amazing avenue to rapidly learn another language. And yes, this program does work if can stick with it. The program can easily be copied to your iTunes library, which makes learning on the go even easier. If you’re committed to learning Spanish, this is the way to go and the Pimsleur Spanish 1 Gold Edition can be purchased, for the sale price, online at Amazon.
