The only reason we don't open our hearts and minds to other people is that they trigger confusion in us that we don't feel brave enough or sane enough to deal with. To the degree that we look clearly and compassionately at ourselves, we feel confident and fearless about looking into someone else's eyes. Pema Chodron

Meditation and our yoga practice prepare us for these moments.

Chair yoga? Thank you to our friends Dan and Rebecca for creating this. We love the Bern!

For a very long time, I’d been convinced that weight loss would change me, both inside and out. I hung onto this belief, despite plenty of evidence to suggest it was untrue. The handful of times in my life I had managed to drop enough weight to land me into single digit sizes, nothing about me was all that different. I wasn’t less anxious or depressed. I wasn’t more confident or adventurous. I didn’t feel freer, or more beautiful, or like more of a romantic catch.

So take a breath and find what is unsolved in your heart. Breathe in patience, breathe in love. Love yourself bountiful. And send that love out to others. Whe...n you send love out from the bountifulness of your own love, it reaches other people. This love is the deepest power of prayer. ~ John O'Donohue Artist: Josephine Klerks :: SoulArt Klerks ::

Welcoming Sonja to the BWY line-up. Sonja teaches Thursday’s night Hatha at 7:30 pm but tonight she is subbing 6 pm YIN. Born and raised in Niagara Falls, Sonya continues to explore and ground into her hometown roots with a full heart. Her personal yoga practice helps her find balance amidst a busy calendar, filled with program development and curating, teaching art history, and working toward the completion of her PhD in Art History and Visual Studies. Despite a buzzing sc...hedule, yoga remains a constant in her life. She is certified as a 200HR Yoga Alliance Yoga Teacher, and is currently completing her RYT-500 certification. A forever-student of the practice, she is most grateful for how much grace, wisdom, and nourishment all of her teachers and students continuously share with her, along this ongoing and enriching journey. Sonya intuitively believes that how we move matters; on our mats, in our bodies, in our hearts, in our thoughts, and in our communities, together. Inspired by a love of teaching, gratitude, and a commitment to wellness, her teaching style encourages and invites students to explore, connect with, and honour the richness of mindful breath and their own iteration(s) of fluidity, both on and off the mat. Welcome to team @sacredfernyoga - we feel so blessed to have you with us.
