What does empowered aging look like to you?

This picture is one example of what it looks like to me. This was me last month at the top of the Cliff Hike in the Keweenaw Peninsula. As you can see from the road below, it was a bit of a climb! Given that I have (still) been dealing with the aftermath of two bacterial infections for the past 16 months, this was no small feat. I am proud that I was able to get to the top--and I have yoga to thank.

You see, I have stuck to my yoga routine to the best of my ability during this slow healing process. That includes four times a week yoga asana practice (not to mention breathwork, meditation, mantra, self-compassion and more). I am sure that without yoga, I would not have been able to climb the Cliff Hike. The very intentional yoga I practice—and teach—helps me in so many ways, including:

👉Bone + Joint Health
👉Core Stability + Balance
👉Nervous System Regulation + Mental Health
👉Detoxification + Digestion
👉Heart Health
👉Sleep

These are all areas that we will focus on in my NEW online course, 'Yoga for Empowered Aging,' that begins soon. Make no mistake; this is not your granny's yoga class! The yoga we do together will help you build strength, improve balance, move easier and feel better--no matter your age.

This Sunday, 10/19, is the last day to save $10 on this empowering course!
