Happy Solstice.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Embrace the longest night, the stillness of the natural world and the quiet of the shortest day.

If you’re feeling a little rundown and tired right now, you’re completely normal

The entire natural world is hibernating, in a season of planning and growing roots

Take time this holiday season to rest, journal, meditate and plan.

What an amazing day we had on Saturday!

So many families returning year after year for the holiday tradition of cutting down a Christmas tree. I love seeing you all outside of the studio and with your families. It’s such a joy filled day.

Your generosity raised $1310 for the Seasons Centre for Grieving Children 🎉

I couldn’t do it without my hot chocolate queen. My mom comes out every year to serve up treats, greet everyone, take pics and keep me warm. 🥰

And my husband, Jody, thanks for always showing up and helping out so much on tree day 🥰

A special thanks to our property owners who generously let us use their land and cut down trees for such a good cause. 🥰

For the month of December, you can pay for your yoga class with a donation to the Alliston Food Bank.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That means feeling good in your body is also good for your soul and your community.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sign up for your drop in class just as you normally would, but at the checkout use the code FOOD to reserve your spot and bring your donation (non-perishable or cash) to class with you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Save your class pass this holiday season, pass on the goodwill and enjoy the good vibes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What to bring? The second slide is all the things the Food Bank is wishing for this holiday season to keep their shelves stocked.

You definitely COULD spend your time and money today buying more things.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, I bet you'd ENJOY spending your time and money coming to yoga and feeling more grounded.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
FUNdamentals class is at 9am
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Come tune in to you.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
TLDR: when you shop from a small business, that money stays in your community, supports the local economy and keeps money out of the hands of billionaires.

Honestly, I'm quite disciplined about:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
lifting weights
doing yoga
playing a game on my phone
drinking lots of water
going to bed by 9pm
impulse buying a treat every time I go to the store
having fun at every opportunity
not using single-use plastics
prioritizing my close relationships
DMing silly stuff to my sis
getting my work done on time
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of these things add immense value to my life...that game on my phone, not so much.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How about you?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Take an honest look at what you do on a regular basis. Write it down and ask yourself, Is it adding value to my life?

Feeling all warm and fuzzy after hosting a day retreat here yesterday. We had the most lovely day connecting with our breath, bodies and being in community.

With a last minute pivot, Nat from Lighthouse Wellness stepped up to help me co-lead the day when Anita fell ill. (don’t worry, she’s on the mend and we will run our retreat again in the spring)

Thanks to all of you amazing humans who showed up to take part in the day and share your light 💫

Thanks to Mars catering for the amazing lunch.

We're already half sold-out for this amazing day retreat.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grab a friend and come join us to get grounded and reconnected before the busy holiday season.

Did you know that you can practice with me online?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There's actually 2 ways to do it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Join the virtual online group and attend any and all of the live classes on the schedule through an online classroom
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Join the all-access membership and you've got over 5 years of uploaded classes to do from anywhere you have wifi.

Reach out if you have questions.

We're in the middle of the fall schedule around here at Bala, but that doesn't mean that you can't still join us.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now that the weather has turned to that sad, in-between season of fall and winter, come and move your body indoors at a class.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You are always welcome to join us for a drop in class. But, since we all know that yoga works best when you commit to it, you can join for the remainder of the session at a pro-rated and lower cost.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Reach out if you want in.

If you keep your mind open, listen to the ideas of others and are receptive to the idea that what you know is not the only truth, you just might find that you grow.

I was feeling nostalgic today, looking back on things I learned from my training with Jules Mitchell and how much it changed the way I teach yoga and train clients (and myself).

Being receptive to new ideas has helped me to grow exponentially. But not only that, it allows me to be open to the idea that I still don't know everything.

Challenging your own beliefs is uncomfortable for sure, but it's also the only way to grow.
