Cheryl:

So this year has been great so far! Back in the summer I decided to shake things up a bit and give yoga a go. I started going once a week with Tracey. Then in November after a lovely family holiday decided to set myself a 30 day challenge of yoga every day. I think I missed 2 days, but it felt amazing. Since then I have been doing yoga 5 days a week instead of the gym, and even now do hot yoga!! (which i was nervous to try). Today was my 52nd yoga class. I feel it gives me that little bit of zen that I need. For 1 hour, it's just me, and I can get out of my head! Hoping to hit 100 classes before my birthday in March. And for those who might feel nervous to try something new, just try it, sometimes we need to get out of our comfort zone to feel the benefit. So here's to trying new things and having a good time doing it! And a little laugh at my very hot and sweaty face after a hot yoga class!

❓ How’s your 2024 going so far? ❓

We’ll go first…

Tracey:

I managed to squeeze in a little nature time before returning to work. This time is always so precious to me as it helps me to reset, refocus, and appreciate the little things.

Even a small amount of time outside on a daily basis helps to keep me grounded and find joy.

How often do you spend time in nature appreciating the details and the fresh air?

Thinking about your intentions for the new year? So are we!

It often feels like there is so much pressure to do more, to be more. But what if our goals for improved wellness mean doing less?

Often, we think about change as something that we need to start doing. Although this can be a positive addition, many new year goals don't last past February!

What if we change our thinking and consider the things that we can stop doing, or change how we do certain things, in order to find balance in our lives?

What if our goals simply start with learning? Slow down! Take a minute to really dig deep and learn more about your true motivation for lasting change.

Reshaping our mindset can bring clarity around how to make our goals a long term reality without the added pressure.

What will you, start, stop, learn, visit, or change in 2024?

“The key to realizing a dream is to focus not on success but significance – and then even the small steps and little victories along your path will take on greater meaning.” - Oprah Winfrey

Wondering what to expect when attending a Rose & Thistle Wellness Retreat?

For us, the power of nature connection is undeniable. My best days always happen when I can find even a small amount of time to be present outdoors. That's why we take time to find retreat locations that allow us to facilitate nature based workshops that restore some of the balance that we crave everyday.

"Mindfulness in nature gives us the opportunity to awaken to what is within us as well as around us, to heal and live skillfully."

Why take your mindfulness practice outside? Rochelle Calvert explains how being in nature releases us from needing to “try” or “do,” so that we can feel more connected to the world around us.
