Pre-Christmas advice: When life gets busy, prioritize your quiet time and self-care, and you’ll rise above the challenges.

Cat (Marjaryasana)-Cow (Bitilasana), is a gentle flow between two poses that warms the body and brings flexibility to the spine. It stretches the back torso and neck, and softly stimulates and strengthens the abdominal organs. It also open the chest, encouraging the breath to become slow and deep. The spinal movement of the two poses stimulates the kidneys and adrenal glands. Coordinating this movement with your breathing relieves stress and calms the mind. This sequence als...o helps to develop postural awareness and balance throughout the body. It brings the spine into correct alignment and can help prevent back pain when practiced regularly. Cat-Cow is one of my most fave! Will you try?

Are you doing ok? We feel the December energy revving-up and for some reason we THINK we have to get all our little projects finished before Christmas. Try this to-do list instead.

It's been a week over here, but we keep trying to remind ourselves that: there’s no growth without friction. How many times have you looked back on your greatest life challenges, only to realise they actually brought out the best in you? Often our greatest personal growth comes from adversity. When we face the shitty stuff. A death. A relationship breakdown. A redundancy. An accident. A crisis of any kind. Especially this year, I’ve come to realise that ‘life’ really calls th...e shots. And this leads me to a place of surrender and trust. It’s about rising above victimhood. The journey that calls our soul is much greater, yet also much simpler, than our egoic self would care to imagine. From challenge, we learn compassion. From change, comes opportunity. From letting-go, comes perspective. From not-knowing, comes trust. Whatever experiences and challenges you are being faced with right now, I hope you can tread gently and look at them as an integral part of your soul’s journey. Shayna

Tonight is the Full Harvest Moon Time to be mindful, to meditate and to go gently. As the full moon reflects the light from the sun, in yoga we say it symbolises our own ‘fullness’ - an abundance of goodness, heightened energy, receptivity and strength. ... This fullness can also create emotional overwhelm, erratic behaviour and heated conversations, as well as physical and emotional tension. Be mindful. Meditate. And move gently.

Attn: Wild Yogis & Tween/Teens. Below is the radar for this evening beginning at 530pm.... I'm going to be proactive in canceling now- we will make this class up on the 15th. ... I will miss you all tonight!

Help! Our current series of outdoor classes ends October 9th, leading into Thanksgiving. Going forward for those of you that have visited our Outdoor Studio, are you willing to work with a weekly or biweekly schedule release at a time? Meaning the schedule would only be released a week or two at a time on MindBody. ... My hesitation on scheduling another 4 or 5 week series is the inability to control the elements. As well, moving indoors with significantly impact #'s. So if the answer is "Yes, I'm cool with that"- let me know in the comments which classes NEED to stay. If you're thoughts are "Nah, the idea stresses me out" - I respect that! Ok, last thing- Anyone have insight into a larger space in town we can utilize going forward for indoor classes? Let me know!

Breath + awareness + intention = yoga. As we peel back the layers of tension and resistance in the body-mind, over and over again, we cultivate a pathway of freedom. We find greater calm, ease, joy and love within ourselves, and in our life. ... Join Erin for Movement & Meditation Tonight at 8pm- dress in layers.
