Preparing for the ritual is the ritual.
It’s simple to think our practice starts the minute we hit our mat. Yet we forget that the ritual starts long before. In the moments of waking up and starting your day, in getting dressed, making the drive. Walking through our doors and catching up with your studio people. That’s all apart of the ritual.
At PYC Barrie, we hold space for all of that. The way you are welcomed, the energy in the room, the community you step into. None of it is separate from your practice. It is all part of how you prepare your body, mind, and heart to be here. That’s all apart of the ritual.
In a world that keeps asking for faster, harder, more, choosing to slow down and be present is a quiet rebellion. And it changes everything.
How you prepare is how you practice. That is the ritual!
