Travel: Elaine has traveled the world in dozens of different vehicles and grew up taking road trips around the North American continent. An early six month sabbatical to back pack the world, whetted her appetite for living and working in different regions. She’s lived along the west coast of North America with years in Southeast Alaska, Seattle, Portland, Long Beach and San Diego is her family’s home port now. Tropical water is her second love and she scuba dives every chance she can – the cool trenches off Point Loma, San Diego, to Shark dives in Fiji and Mexico, with more destinations to come.
Drivetime Yoga and Flytime Yoga books and audio:

“After talking with Elaine, and reading the Drivetime Yoga book, I can see where these stretches and breathing can even help when I’m riding the bus or sitting at a desk…So, if you haven’t checked out Drivetime Yoga, go take a look. It could just add some much needed calmness and relaxation to your daily commute.” Becky Scott, Contributing Editor, AskPatty.com, Automotive Advice for Women.
