The Story of 💜 Why does it seem to be challenging — at times.

Woman you support my adventurous endeavors and inspire me to live my best life. Because of you I feel heard. I feel taken care of. & I know I’m not alone. I Love You.

💫 HELLO FY COMMUNITY 💫
​.
​Today we are excited to announce our second new Guardian in-training . Help us to welcome her in Mending the Hoop!
​.
Last year, in 2019 Chantal opened up near Zurich and is proud to be one of the only yoga studios offering Forrest Yoga on the schedule! She is also the founder of the tribe.
Read on to hear Chantal's FY Journey:
​.
​"My first encounter with Forrest Yoga was around 2008 in New York City. I was very much 'emotionally unavailable' to myself at that time. Living faster than I could think. Even though Yoga has always been present in my life; my mom would take me to classes as a kid, I took yoga as an elective during college and practiced Mysore obsessively, it wasn't until my first Elbow to Knee that I felt a true permission to fascinate upon and believe in myself. The seed was planted and fastforward a few years; Forrest Yoga helped me to step into my true Self. Through its practice and teaching, I have become more aware of my body, its strengths and weaknesses. The focus on the emotional level has re-taught me to listen and to feel; two properties that I have numbed out because listening made me feel and feeling made me vulnerable.
I will always be grateful to who has taught me my first "deep breathing, wtf moment of what is going on core work, flashy leggings" kind of yoga class. The kind that led me to meet Ana and train with her in 2012 for the Foundation and shortly after the Advanced. In 2014 I brought Forrest Yoga to various studios in Switzerland and introduced many Swiss Yogis to the style. When teaching Forrest Yoga I hope to facilitate - in the practitioner - a glimpse into what is and what could be. On the mat we have a chance to work on ourselves without judgement, to feel inside and learn, and to uncover our wiser Self."

Because right now, finally and with the world’s permission... we can take some little extra time for us.

What do you think?

“In a dark place we find ourselves, and a little more knowledge lights our way.” — Yoda.

Sharing the start of tutelage. A beginning. When this picture was taken, I just started to walk again from a terrible accident. I was out of commission for 2 months. Couldn’t walk at all. Didn’t know if I could ever really move one of my feet again. Let alone practice inversions. Tim made me show up to the mat. He made me see the possibilities. 🙏

Sometimes I really wonder if people who are mean, inhumane, or just plain rude can sleep at night. And if so, do they sleep well?

People tell me wait for karma to happen. It’s a comforting thought when everything spins out of control. True thing. But when people are truly disconnected, isn’t it usually the samskaras that hunt them? The sadness that wrecks their soul without them even feeling it.

What I learned from a continuous yoga practice is to keep working on the sadhna, the path; maybe to liberation or getting close to it. Perhaps to see a different angle, another aspect of it all. The big picture. The work within. May we practice to feel compassion. To be free.

A good friend of mine reminded me earlier this week that “friction creates evolution”. Let’s evolve together people! ✌️♥️
