“When it rains, my Pilates studio magically transforms into a jungle gym. Planks turn into ‘the floor is lava,’ the yoga trapeze becomes a swing, and my yoga mat? Use your imagination😂. At least the kids have great core strength now! ”

✨ A Different Kind of Holiday Season ✨
Inspired by & .chek on the Spirit Gym Podcast, I’m stepping into something magical this year: The 13 Holy Nights 🌌.

Starting today, this ancient practice blends pagan traditions, spiritual rituals, and the rhythms of nature around the winter solstice. It’s a sacred pause to connect deeper, awaken intuition, and intentionally map the year ahead.

Here’s the beauty of it:
🌙 Night 1 reflects the entire year ahead.
🌙 Each of the next 12 nights = one month of 2025 (Night 2 = January, Night 3 = February…).
This isn’t just reflection—it’s about dreaming, feeling, and even receiving “downloads” from the Universe. It’s a reset for the soul and a chance to realign with what truly matters.

If this resonates, it’s not too late to join me! DM me, and I’ll add you to our little accountability group on WhatsApp. Let’s explore this sacred time together and co-create an intentional 2025. 🌟

🌸 Reflections from Our Recent Women’s Circle 🌸
This week at the studio, we gathered for an intimate and enriching Women’s Circle, diving into a recent podcast between Mel Robbins & Gabor Maté. Together, we explored patterns that so many women carry—patterns that often go unnoticed but deeply shape our lives:

✨ Putting others’ emotional needs before our own
✨ Seeking validation through duty, roles, and responsibilities—while neglecting our true selves
✨ Suppressing healthy anger to avoid conflict
✨ Feeling overly responsible for others’ emotional wellbeing and fearing disappointment

These behaviors are so common that they may feel like second nature. But as Dr. Maté reveals, this vibrational density—the weight of people-pleasing, self-sacrifice, and emotional suppression—takes a toll not only on our minds but on our bodies, weakening the immune system. 💔

💡 What if we could release these patterns?
In our circle, we challenged these asking questions like: What does it mean to honor ourselves unapologetically? How can we reframe “healthy anger” as a boundary instead of a burden?

We shared, listened, and held space for one another. 🌿 Healing begins when we recognize the ways we’ve been conditioned and consciously choose a lighter, more authentic path.

✨ To all the women reading this, pause for a moment: Whose emotional needs have you been prioritizing? What would happen if you put yourself first? ✨

Let’s keep this conversation going, beautiful souls. Share your thoughts or DM me to join the next circle. Together, we’re rewriting the narrative of what it means to care for ourselves and the world around us. 💖

Halloween’s roots trace back to ancient Celtic, Roman, and early Christian traditions, blending elements from pagan rituals and religious practices. The origin of Halloween is closely linked to Samhain (pronounced “Sow-in”), a festival celebrated by the ancient Celts over 2,000 years ago, marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. Celebrated on October 31st to November 1st, Samhain was seen as a time when the boundary between the physical world and the spirit world was thin. This allowed spirits of the dead to return to the earth for one night, along with other supernatural beings, such as fairies and deities.
 
Well, wether we believe this or not, there is a profound shift during this season - from summer to fall, fall to winter. Light to dark. I’ll be the first to admit that I never used to appreciate this shift in season very much - longing for my warm, bright, summer days. However, as I’ve learned more over the years, I’m able to appreciate the deeper meaning of this change in seasons. It’s an opportunity for deepening of intuition and a clearer connection to the spiritual realm. It’s as if the veil between the worlds opens a gateway to understanding our true potential and the magic that we carry within us every day. This season challenges us to step into the unknown, inviting us to imagine new possibilities in our abilities and the mysteries of the universe. It’s a forced invitation to look inwards, and nourish the deeper self.
