Can you tell the difference?!
Sometimes it’s hard when we feel we are being judged by others, when in fact it has nothing to do with judgement and more to do with being accountable for actions we’ve done, or things we’ve said.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone.

This is such a busy time of year for so many people we need to remind ourselves it’s okay to sit back and relax...or in my case get upside on my head 🙃

I’m hoping that 2022 allows me a little more freedom to offer teachings to the public but for now, I’m just going to continue with life as best I can, and trust that the universe has big plans for us all.

🙌🏼❤️

Happy Saturday fellow humans. What a week we’ve had, and such a blessing the sun is finally coming out to say hello today. ☀️

I just wanted to take this moment to remind you just how special you are. How much you are needed in this world, and how what you do can make a difference even if just for one person.

Shine bright ♥️✨

“Treat your heart to it’s delights
And you’ll never go hungry again” ~ JAG❤️

Hi everyone, it’s been a good few minutes since I last posted. Life has had its fair share of ups and downs, but we’re taking them in stride. Everyday is a new day to wake up, try something new, do something you’ve always loved, or combine the two together which is exactly what I’ve done here.

When the minister from our local church had mentioned this beautiful piece of land was going to be taken down... my heart told me what it needed and so I listened.
This beautiful tunnel of trees has been in Innisfil for a very long time and a place for many to get that “perfect picture”. I’m so glad that I finally made it there for mine- it’s absolutely beautiful.

Sometimes in life, we just need to stop what we’re doing and go.... manifest what your hearts signing, do all the things you want, and don’t be ever sorry you did.

With this new 3rd wave lockdown in place, now more than ever people need to be diligent with their actions, thoughts, prayers and voices. Reflect if you must, but don’t stay stagnant for too long.... trust me, wiping off the dust isn’t as easy 💨❤️

Namaste my friends
🙏🏼

How’s everyone feeling these days? We’ve almost hit one week into the new year and not much has really changed on the outside- but I can tell you, so much has shifted internally.

To say at almost 41 I have it all figured out, I’d be bold faced lying. Truthfully, I’m just starting to find what’s been missing in my life all this time.

It was never possessions, or cars, houses or purses.

It was love, pure, raw, honest and real love.

I have a hard time with disappointing others because my heart is usually the one to decide things for me, not my head- the one with common sense. I give second and third and 50th chances- when I should have stopped at one. I have allowed negative things to over power me and my life and I’m finally willing to say no more. I’m finally deciding that who and what’s best for me, are the things and people who are willing to invest in me.

If you’re not willing to sit with me, I know you’re not against me...but sadly I just won’t have room for you at my table any longer. I don’t know if I ever would have gained the insight that I have this past year if it hadn’t been for this time off... to think, to feel, to let be- be, and to wholly and honestly love the woman I am today. I’m not perfect, and I don’t want to be- but I am perfectly me, and there’s no one else like me.

Happy new year everyone- what a wild ride that was !

2020 was a year of many great changes for everyone. People lost their loved ones, their jobs, their houses, but on the flip side to that new connections were made, new talents were created, and finding new ways to spend our time seemed to be the everyday thing.
Many people struggled, but many also flourished.

I for one had many down days, many days where I wondered would this ever end, I spent even more nights worrying the same with the addition of tears. And then one day after a beautiful conversation with my mother it just hit me 💥. I can only do what I can do within the circumstances I’ve been given. I stopped trying to force things that weren’t working and starting building on my strengths. I had the tough conversations with myself, and I asked others for help when I just couldn’t quite see past my own bulls**t ( pardon the language 😅, but if you really knew me, I can swear with the best of the sailors 😉). I took long hard looks at who I was, and who I wanted to be.
I’m not perfect, but I’m perfectly me and I will always, in ALL WAYS try to be a better woman, mother, wife, friend, neighbour and support for those in need.

We may not be flowing in person together, but I am always willing to hop on my mat for you because together WE ARE STRONGER.
💝

From my light to yours,
Namaste 🙏🏼

“Change your outlook, change your life”

This week has looked a lot different than the rest this year. This week I granted myself permission to just be. Allowed myself to be free in my movements, free in my thoughts, and free with my time. I pulled my kids from school to allow them some downtime before the hoopla of the holidays, and I’m not sorry I did. We’re waking up later than usual, eating all the carbs in the morning, and we’re wrapping presents and singing Christmas songs like we’re suppose too.

So if you need me, I’ll be over here practicing my and baking all the cookies 🍪 ❤️🙏🏼

I’ve taken the last couple of days to reflect, pause, heal old wounds, bandaid new ones, and somewhere in the mix be a teacher to my kids.

They say we all have the same 24 hrs in a day and it’s how you spend them that counts. Some would think my time was well wasted, and I on the other hand think it’s absolutely necessary sometimes to just stop, and let be. It’s true that society has shut down in many parts of the globe, but that never meant we stopped thinking, feeling or being. I had to remind myself in a conversation with my mom yesterday that “it’s ok to put a closed sign up, it’s okay to tell your people you just can’t right now, you’re taking much needed R&R time”... sometimes mental exhaustion far outweighs physical exhaustion.

So my best advice for those of you who feel heavy, discouraged, anxious or are looking for someone to say “it’s okay not to be ok all the time” this ones for you

❤️😘
Love and light always, Jenn xoxo

Why hello there Fri-Yay! I’ve been waiting for you all week ✅

I remember when I was younger Fridays were always so exciting-the last day of the week, extra curricular sports, playing with friends, and NO SCHOOL for two whole days!

After I started having children, fridays just didn’t have that same pizazz as they once did. Weekends were much the same as weekdays, wake-up, feed babies, do laundry, make snacks, play, lunch.... and you know how the rest of it goes.

Well now fast forward a good few years (ahem a decade almost) and I’ve got my fridays back!

This time it’s a little different as I still have my children home with me, and we do still have school, but Friday is the end of something good that happened. Fridays, I feel are the reward of a week hard earned, hard played, hard loved, hard worked, and I we feel we should not be sorry about it!

After today’s chores, errands, class and school work, we’re heading to the pumpkin patch for some fun 🎃❤️

How do you feel about Fridays? Did you have any plans for tonight or the weekend??

“Patience is more than simply to wait.
It is having learned what is worth your time”

Aka “Monkey pose” or commonly used “splits”.

The splits offer a wide range of benefits for not only the quadriceps but also the hip flexors, thigh muscles and back. This asana requires you to be open~ not just in the body but also the mind, to exercise patience with yourself and to become aware of your body alignment.....there are so many ways to “cheat” your splits, but none of them will truly give you the benefits this pose offers.

Splits are often scary or seem like an unattainable asana but with practice, patience and persistence, anything is possible.

Here are some postures that will help you achieve the splits you’ve been looking for:

💖Half splits
💖Pigeon
💖Half Moon
💖Low Lunge
💖Wide legged seated fold
💖Seated forward fold
💖Hand to big toe

❤️ I will note that trying to rush this posture, or forcefully get into it will only cause damage and discomfort. Take your time, get to know your body and understand how it works with you. And know that I am always here to help or answer your questions.

Love and Light always ❤️✨
NAMASTE,
Jenn
