Re-energize
We all know when our “batteries” are running low; that drained feeling that keeps us from doing even the things we typically love. Maybe you overexerted yourself in one area or another and used up your reserves. So, how do we get re-energized? That’s going to take a lot of thought from a lot of thinkers. Join us and share your ideas and life lessons at our Spiraling to Wellness monthly gathering focusing on June’s theme of RE-ENERGIZE
Rediscover
As we move toward spring, what better theme to take us there than RE-EMERGE. Like butterflies, we have done the hard work to evolve into who we want to be and re-emerge more beautiful than ever.
What is Yoga, to me (Payton)
Yoga is the journey of discovering yourself. Yoga is choosing to lead with love in situations that challenge you. Yoga is the quest for a deeper meaning of life. Yoga is a safe space, sometimes the only one for some people. Yoga is a playground where you are free to express yourself through movement that feels good to you. Yoga is being kind to yourself and giving yourself grace. Yoga is realizing that we are all connected.
On Reigniting
Like the fire in the belly you need the fuel, a dream or a goal or an intention. You need the heat, the drive, the motivation the desire. You need the oxygen. A deep inhale to stoke the flame and a strong exhale to get rid of the smoke and toxins.
Rehearsing Yoga
There are days when Yoga is a practice. There are days when Yoga is a rehearsal. The days when yoga is rehearsed is when there are instructors and other students. A certain energy brought on by other people with the same desired outcome.
What is the desired outcome of rehearsing yoga? It is about creating a story with likeminded people, with a community.
Reignite
Our theme for February is REIGNITE, a hot topic indeed! What's been dormant in your life? Where do you need to ignite some passion and energy? A relationship, your yoga practice, a professional or personal project? It's time to re-awaken to all of the possibilities, insights and, of course, access to new and abundant excitement and connection along the way.
Reimagine
Imagination has no limits. So, to RE-IMAGINE yourself or your world is to be open—over and over—again to all the possibilities life has to offer. Join us on, Sunday, January 8th at 10 am for a lively discussing on our theme of the month and what it means to you as we enter into a brand- new year. Here are some things to consider.
A year in review + 2023 ReAwakening Themes
We started our year aspiring to live our best life. We admired those around us and the life that we were creating. We found room to abide, and breathed into the moments that both challenged us and brought us tears of joy. We push the limits of our comfort zone to seek and find wholeness. We conquered those damn mountains and surrendered our expectations, trusting that the universe truly does have our backs.
Receive
It’s not always about giving, is it? Sometimes, it is better to RECEIVE — and how we do that is what we will explore this month in our S2W group. How we recognize and accept what we receive on a daily basis can make a big difference in our lives and those around us. Join us for an enlightening discussion with plenty of opportunities to give and RECEIVE.
Give
GIVE. It’s something we do every day in so many ways we don’t even think about. We give our time and energy to our job, volunteer work, or other responsibilities; we give our hearts to our loved ones; we give gifts for special occasions; maybe we give money to charity; hopefully, we give ourselves some TLC. Our S2W discussion this month focuses on what and how each of us gives and how that giving affects the larger community.
Surprise yourself!
I don’t know about you, but I love surprises. They bring you in directions you might not have taken otherwise. As our S2W theme of the month for October, we’ll consider how
SURPRISE fits into our lives and how we can welcome it as a way of opening our minds and hearts. Who knows? You may surprise yourself with what comes up during our lively, free-flowing discussion.
The Power of Intention
To mindfully make the leap (or baby steps) from intention to results requires clarity, self-knowledge, and determination. Let’s see if we can get there, together.
Surrender to the Flow
This month, we will contemplate the scary, crazy, wildly exciting idea of surrender. Here are some prompts to get the discussion started.
What are your CONQUERing?
The July theme of CONQUER is an exciting one, for sure. It is dynamic, invigorating, and ultimately satisfying, regardless of how big or small our challenges may be. When you overcome something like a fear or an obstacle, you gain back a sense of control, which is so important to our well-being. So let’s conquer this topic with a few thoughtful questions.
How do you FIND?
It seems simply enough when it comes to keys, directions, a new house or job, or even time to do the things you love. But, if we go deeper (as we always do for our monthly theme) the meaning changes when the end result is not so concrete. Think about how you define the word “find” in your life.
What are you SEEKing?
Seeking physical things like a new job, financial success, education, your friend hiding in the bushes, or lost treasure (hey, you never know), is a pretty concrete process with not too many surprises (except for the treasure.) Seeking what is in your heart, providing you can actually name that thing, requires a deeper dive and may be filled with surprises.
