Six days.

I’ve been thinking about what it feels like to practice outside as the evening light changes over the water — that particular kind of quiet that’s hard to find anywhere else. That’s what I want to share with you this summer.

The 2026 Outdoor Yoga Series — “Summer of Joyful Living — Returning to Joy” — begins Monday, June 1st at The Owenego in Branford. Eight weeks. Kripalu-style, which means we move with awareness and meet ourselves exactly where we are. All levels, always.

Series: $100 members · $130 general public
Single class: $15 members · $20 general public

You can register at https://kellymcguireyoga.com/2026/04/18/outdoor-yoga-by-the-sound-2026-summer-series-at-the-owenego/ . And if committing to the full series feels like a lot right now, a single class is a perfectly good place to start. Come for one Monday and see how it feels.

See you on the lawn. 💙

Memorial Day is more than the start of summer.

It's a day to remember the men and women who didn't come home. To sit with that for a moment, really sit with it, before we fire up the grill or head to the beach.

That's what I'm doing today. Taking a breath. Feeling grateful for freedoms I didn't earn. Thinking of the families who carry a loss that doesn't have a season.

If that's you - I see you today.

Wishing everyone a meaningful
Memorial Day.

The work day is done. Take a breath. ☀️
Because I have something exciting to share — the 2026 Outdoor Yoga Series is officially open!

This season we’re gathering every Monday evening, June 1st through July 20th at 6:00 pm at one of the most beautiful spots on the Connecticut shoreline — the Owenego in Branford, nestled in gorgeous gardens right along the Long Island Sound. 🌊

Our theme this year is Returning to Joy. Because sometimes we all just need to come back to ourselves. Come back to what feels good. Come back to joy.

No yoga experience needed. No special equipment. Just you, the fresh sea air, and an evening that’s entirely yours.

Everyone is welcome. 🌿

However you’re spending this Sunday — whether it’s a quiet morning on your mat, a healing moment in stillness, time with loved ones, or simply resting — may it be gentle and good.

Easter is a time many associate with renewal and new beginnings. In yoga, we return to that theme with every breath. In Reiki, we find it in the quiet restoration of energy. In meditation, we discover it in the space between thoughts. Every inhale is a fresh start. Every practice, a small rebirth.

No matter your beliefs, your background, or where you are on your journey — you are welcome here. Yoga, Reiki, and meditation are for everyone.

Wishing you a peaceful, nourishing Sunday. 🙏✨

Tonight’s Full Moon in Libra — the Pink Moon - won’t actually look pink. It gets its name from the wild pink phlox that blooms this time of year, one of the first flowers to push through after a long winter. And honestly? That feels like the perfect metaphor right now.

This moon carries the energy of renewal and gentle transformation — not the big dramatic kind, but the quiet, steady kind. The kind that’s already happening in you, whether you’ve noticed it yet or not.

If you can, step outside tomorrow evening. Look up. Take a few slow breaths and just… be with it for a minute.
And if you want something to sit with:
🌸 What’s beginning to bloom in your life?
🌸 What are you ready to release?
🌸 What needs a little more light and attention right now?

You don’t need a ritual or a plan. Five quiet minutes under the moonlight is enough. That is the practice. ✨

Happy International Women’s Day. 💗

One of the greatest gifts of the work I do through yoga, meditation, and Reiki is witnessing the strength and resilience of women. Every day I meet women who are balancing so much — careers, families, caregiving, friendships, expectations — and still finding the courage to keep growing, healing, and showing up for life with open hearts.

What inspires me most is what happens when women give themselves permission to pause. When they step onto the mat, close their eyes, take a deep breath, and reconnect with themselves — even for a few minutes. In that space, something powerful happens. We remember our strength. We soften. We heal. We support one another.

To all the incredible women in this community — students, friends, mothers, daughters, sisters, and grandmothers — I see you, and I’m grateful for the energy, kindness, and wisdom you bring into the world.

Today is a beautiful reminder that your wellbeing matters too. May you take a moment today to breathe deeply, move gently, and honor the strong, compassionate woman that you are.

I’m so grateful to share this journey with all of you. ✨

Happy International Women’s Day.

✨ Welcoming the New Year with Gratitude ✨

As we step into a new year, my heart is full of gratitude. Thank you to every beautiful soul who has shown up on the mat, in meditation, on the water, or for Reiki—bringing presence, openness, and trust into our shared space.

This community is built on intention, kindness, and the courage to slow down and listen inward. Whether you joined us once or many times in 2025, your energy matters and your presence has helped shape this beautiful collective.

May the year ahead invite more ease, clarity, healing, and moments of deep connection—both within yourself and with one another. I’m honored to continue walking this path with you.

With gratitude and love,
Kelly ✨
