“Just breathe.” It should be written on every prescription pad in the world. It’s by no means a cure-all, but it serves to keep our bodies and minds focused, energized, and composed, laying the foundation for wellness.

Abide—the word, itself, seems to have seasons. There is a time to endure, to tolerate, to acquiesce, to wait for something or someone, to rest in the moment. Sometimes it takes more courage and mindfulness to abide than to act.

Think about when you are walking down a path – one of life’s many – and it feels so right. It may be the path of a relationship, a career, a health journey, or all of the above. You just know in your heart that everything you experienced to this point has brought you to this amazing place. You’re in alignment, connected to others, to yourself, to life.

We can admire things, people, actions. Or we can be the object of admiration. The word admire, more so than other types of compliments, brings with it a warmth and respect that we all want to feel worthy of. In its purest form, there is no desire or ego involved, just a loving nod to something we appreciate and maybe want to emulate.

Join us for another year of Spiraling both on and off the mat with another set of universal themes centered around our guiding principles of awareness, nutrition, and movement.

What happens when…You wake up and no longer feel like yourself Life does not take on the shape or intensity it once had? Those that you trusted would dance with you have taken a different shape or path? What used to drive you has become a tedious chore?

We are born to move, to dance our way through it all, and feel alive! But, it can be hard, even impossible, to remember this dance under layers of stress, tension, responsibilities, etc. Dancing can bring out your happiest, most vibrant self so you can live your most authentic, joyful life!

Meditation does not always have to be done seated still or even alone. You can move with your meditation by yourself or with a group, simply by going for a walk, slowly and mindfully.

I have always dreamed and held very closely in my heart the idea of a community, a tribe, a world where we can celebrate each other’s strengths, respect our differences, and ultimately come together with the common goal of doing our best every day to lift others up. After all, as we learned in our month of flourishing, all flourishing is mutual…

They say how you stand in Tadasana is how you stand in life! What if you throw your arms up in Tadasana and really open yourself up to all that is possible?! Tadasana, Mountain Pose is a great way to ground yourself in the beginning of the practice.

When you flourish, all flourish.

What does it mean to expand? Does it mean to go beyond what we know is possible- physically, emotionally or mentally, to become more “full”? Or, does it mean to simply grow in whatever form that takes…

Virabhadra is the name of a tall, dark and fierce deity, depicted with a thousand arms, flaming hair and eyes, and wearing a garland of skulls. She represents patience, persistence and ultimately expansion.

When we do feel resistance and nothing seems to be working, that’s when the real fun begins as we delve into the “why and how”. When we are connected with the flow of things, all the time and energy we have put into our relationships, health, work, and community seem to pay off.

Practice this pose to feel the delicate balance between receiving energy from the earth and sending it right back out through your heart center.

I remember it so well… the first time I went to a yoga class. I had no idea what to expect. But something was there; I could feel the pull.
