"Grant me the courage to move forward with love, with joy, with peace." That is the mantra I pulled out of my deck of mantra cards today, and it was everything I needed to hear. As one year ends and another begins, we approach many changes in our lives. We realize all of the things we didn't do with our year that we promised ourselves we would. We acknowledge all of the mistakes we have made. We are never where we want to be or hoped we would be. We tend to be extra hard on o...urselves during these months. On top of all of these changes, regrets and guilt, it's the holiday season which can easily be called the most stressful time of year. Take a moment. Close your eyes. Inhale. Exhale. You are alive. You are present. You are connected. Each moment is a new beginning. Each breath can be the start of a "new years resolution". You don't have to wait until January 1st and the next January 1st is not your deadline to accomplish this goal. You can start at any second of any day throughout any year. Let us all try to be a little bit lighter on ourselves. Change is never easy, heck life if definitely never easy. But it is all worth it and everything that is manifesting itself is allowing you to grow into the beautiful being you're meant to become. You are beautiful. You are strong. You are fucking amazing! (Excuse the language ) So let us all try to move forward with love, with joy, and with peace. See more

True power is living the realization that you are your own healer, hero and leader. Missing warm and sunny summer days by the lake on this cold and windy afternoon.

In the final stretch of school! In one short month I will officially be able to call myself a certified Holistic Nutritionist. It has been the craziest, wildest, busiest, most stressful, amazing and beautiful year of my life so far. This program has changed me for the better! I have never felt healthier and happier both physically and mentally. I have grown emensely and even though I still have a long way to go, I have come so damn far and I am so damn proud! As excited as ...I am for my future, I am definitely sad to see this chapter of my life come to an end. The things I have learned, the friends I have made, the life I have created for myself, it all fills my heart up with so much love, gratitude and joy. Thank you for reading my little emotional rant. Happy Tuesday friends! And because it's Tuesday, of course I'm teaching my Hatha class at 6:30pm @theclaritycentre so come join me for a juicy stretch! See more
