A community ed opportunity

I will be leading a 2 hour workshop through Burnsville Community Education (ISD 191) on October 29th from 6:30-8:30pm. The workshop is entitled Calm in Chaos: Yoga Practices for Balanced Living.
The evening will consist of some gentle yoga as well as time for journaling and discussion about how to find balance and calm even when life is demanding and stressful.
Pick up a Burnsville Community Education Brochure or have a look at the class offering online.
I hope that many of you will plan to join me for an evening of fun and renewal.

Weekend weather

For those of you reading from here in MN.....the weekend weather forecast is promising some summer like temps and sunny skies! YAY! Schedule some time to get outside for a walk or do some yoga on your patio....celebrate the changing season and consider what you might want to release and what you want to embrace as a new season begins.
Be well...breathe deep....be grateful!

Don't wait til January!

Here it is September....and the last full week of September in fact! As the leaves begin to put on their colors before winter, September can be the perfect time to set a goal or intention to be healthier.
I often chuckle to myself when people try to set "new year resolutions" in January. To me, it seems like such a set-up for struggle. Who wants to go outdoors for a walk or run when there is very little daylight, the days are cold, and the roads and sidewalks are icy?? Let's face it.....the dead of winter is hardly the time when our bodies want to try something new. We are much more likely to continue to exercise and move if we have a habit going before winter begins. Why not start an outdoor activity now, when cool crisp days with lots of sun are available and the farmers markets are still open and selling the last goodies of summer?? There's still time to strike a yoga pose or 2 on your deck or porch!!
September is a beautiful month in MN.....get out and enjoy the spectacular show that mother nature provides and boost your mood and heart rate all at the same time! Be well!
