The biggest free outdoor public yoga class in South Florida

Without a parade or other traditional public events in Boca, New Year's Day left a big empty space for Yoga Journey.

So founder Leslie Glickman decided to go big or go home. In fact, SomethingBig2015 is the signup site for "the biggest free outdoor public yoga class South Florida has ever seen," the announcement said.

Three weeks out, 350 people had already registered, no surprise to Glickman, who has seen yoga grow from mostly women enthusiasts to professional athletes.

"I've been teaching yoga in Boca for 20 years," said Glickman, who conducts the city's free outdoor weekly yoga class in Sanborn Square. "Sometimes I have as much as 150 people there."

It's bring your own yoga mat from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Jan. 1, a Thursday, in the Mizner Park Amphitheater in Boca Raton's Mizner Park. Check-in begins at 10 a.m. and Glickman will have as many as 18 teachers, her own staff and others, from 11 a.m. to noon. Live music will be provided by jazz harpist Scott Marischen, who is expected to bring three other musicians, she said.

Woman revives after 45 minutes without a pulse... I bet you've never came back from the dead before.

They are calling it "a miracle."

Doctors at Boca Raton Regional Hospital in Florida have no way to explain how 40-year-old Ruby Graupera-Cassimiro survived after spending 45 minutes without a pulse and enduring three hours of attempts to bring her back from near-death on Sept. 23.

Graupera-Cassimiro, now a mother of two, had just come out of a cesarean section procedure to deliver her new daughter. Then suddenly, she went from chattering with her family to struggling for her life, according to the Sun Sentinel.

She was suffering from a rare complication called an amniotic fluid embolism, in which the fluid that surrounds the baby in the womb enters the mother's blood stream. The condition can cause life-threatening blood clots. Read more here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2014/11/10/woman-spontaneously-revives-after-45-minutes-without-a-pulse/
