They all practically said it all.

I love the design though, obsessively clean and engaging. Superior links too.

Cheers!

Erina Hart Said:

Joanne’s blog is a burst of light though a seemingly endless cave. With thousands of personal blogs on the internet, it is often difficult to distinguish exactly what a great personal blog should have. However, if the qualifications for a great personal blog are well written posts, a spiffy layout, interesting content, and a blogger with a brilliant personal voice, this blog is definitely a great blog. Take a few moments of your time and check out The Laidback Buddhist. You’ll be so inspired that you’ll probably take up yoga just so you can relate to Joanne’s awesomeness!
