Season's Greetings - https://mailchi.mp/548692ac83f0/seasons-greetings

Issues with peeing just a little when you laugh, jump, lift. or exert yourself? Pull up in the driveway or put your key in the door and can barely manage to get to the bathroom? These scenarios are not a normal part of aging and can be reduced or eliminated with proper pelvic floor training. Join me over the next 10 weeks for the Pelvic Floor and Deep Core Series to retrain your pelvic floor muscles to be more responsive to do the job they are designed to do. I am living proof that the practices and exercises I will share with you work. Classes are live streamed and recorded so they will be available when you are. Pelvic Floor and Deep Core Starts Wednesday Oct 14. Sign up here for all Fall Live Stream Classes for the price of one. https://app.namastream.com/

Fall 2020 Update - https://mailchi.mp/13d5bae6c317/fall-2020-update

Some challenges can be harder to tackle when practicing at home, but even a little practice time is better than none! Classes are still running online this month, email me for the zoom links. Monday’s 10-11:30 Wednesday’s 1-2:30 & 5:30-7

I absolutely love the demonstration in this video of how fascial restrictions create issues in other areas, and the fact that their patients continue with daily routines and change "habits"....perhaps you have heard me say that before. Somatic movement helps us recognize and change those habits also....I do not know what their treatment involves, but I would venture to say it has to do with paying attention to how you move, your breathing patterns and observing how your body and mind react to your surroundings....building the skills of interception. Do you know what movement we practice regularly that would assist the release of the restriction she creates on his waist and hip??

All Classes are Online - https://mailchi.mp/be21d459ae69/all-classes-are-online

In this time of social distancing I’ve moved my classes to an online zoom meeting. Today I finally remembered to record it! If you have been curious about a somatic practice please take some time to care for you, this is an example of how I’ve blended my somatic movement training and therapeutic yoga training together. You’ll need a space on the floor, a blanket or two, a belt and a pillow or two. Or any props that help keep you comfortable. Enjoy! https://zoom.us//9cdIPaOo2HFLSaOX1mjxU7JmBt38X6a81yQfqaYNz

Ok my friends, I've taken a big step today, something that I have been holding back on for a long time, I created videos a couple of years ago with the intention of having them for my clients to use in their home practices, they have always been private, today I released them to the public. To me this means I am really putting myself out there, there is so much fear wrapped up into videos for me - body image is first on the list, something I still struggle with and I have changed that body quite a bit in the last two years, so this is me starring fear in the face and having the courage to do it anyway. As I create the time and space to make new videos I will be adding them to my channel. I hope that you will benefit from this huge step I've taken. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWuKcZpXsym7jyGwC7zQdCA

I could really relate to this after the past few years shifting my business focus and finally letting go of what wasn’t serving me anymore. Letting go can be so darned hard but we have to let go in order to open up to new beginnings.

Wise words, letting go of what we can’t control can be challenging, but when we do there is freedom and ease present.

More on SomaYoga from one of the creators of the methodology that blends somatics with therapeutic and traditional yoga therapy. Molly was one of my teachers at Yoga North

Tammy introduced me to somatics, if getting to classes in town is challenging and you live in her area, check it out. You will be well cared for.

Here is a great explanation of Hanna Somatics, SomaYoga is a blending of somatics with stabilizing and strengthening movement and ties in traditional yoga philosophy. Classes start up Jan 13, a few spots are still available in Wednesday afternoon and Saturday morning classes. Schedule in comments below https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=45qDEB552OI

Begin studio was bathed in sound this morning as we set intentions and created a clear vision for 2020. I wish I had taken more pictures, this is the only one I took. Thank You Natasha for sharing your amazing skill with us
