Attention, ladies of a certain age!

As you know, perimenopause brings a variety of physical, energetic, mental, and emotional symptoms that make everyday life challenging and uncomfortable.

I, too, struggled with bizarre and rapid changes in my body that made me feel "not like myself". 😕

From the yogic perspective, menopause is a natural process, not a disease or condition, and it should be treated as such. Therapies for menopause are lacking, but fortunately, I've learned some ancient yogic practices that have eased my symptoms and helped me to feel more like myself again. 🧘🏼‍♀️

I'd love to share what I've learned and experienced with you! Ladies of Durango, I invite you to attend an upcoming monthly workshop series called Menopause Yoga.

We'll practice yogic techniques that address many of the common symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, mood swings, fatigue, joint pain and stiffness, digestive disharmony, bloating/gas, and more.

This series is appropriate for those in perimenopause or post-menopause who are seeking relief in a supportive, nourishing environment.

Sundays, 11 am - 1 pm at The Smiley Building:

➡️ Jan. 25
➡️ Feb. 22
➡️ Mar. 22
➡️ Apr. 19
➡️ May 24

The series is not a progression, and each session is a stand-alone workshop. Feel free to try one, and return for another if you feel you benefit.

Space is limited. Please pre-register to reserve your spot using the QR code on my flier ➡️

I often post this picture (taken from my deck) after the first snowfall. The picture does not do the beauty of this landscape justice.

Winter can be rough where I live. The road to my house is terrible to begin with, and downright treacherous when it snows.

Driving home last night was a little stressful 😬

But then I get to wake up to this ❄️🌲☀️ I am truly grateful to live here!

I’m even more grateful for my yoga practice, which reminds me to appreciate and immerse myself in these moments.

Greetings FB friends!

As I reflect on this season of gratitude and thanks, I think of all of you who have supported me and Birdsong Yoga Therapy for many years.

I am honored to be of service to you and humbled to witness you in your life’s journey 🙏

I know that the holidays are difficult for many, especially those in the throes of grief. I have been there, and still, at times, the holiday season can propel me into the darkest depths of my soul.

I have learned, over time, to find shelter in my heart 💗. The peace I now find there reminds me that no matter what I am feeling or what is happening in the world, I can still welcome in the light.

It is possible to acknowledge and process the things in life that feel dark, and to also stand in the light and beauty of this world ✨.

And sometimes, when I find that difficult to do, I turn to music or poetry to inspire me. I recently discovered this poem by Jan Richardson that captures this sentiment eloquently (see 2nd image), and I would like to share it with you as we enter the holiday season.

And with it, I wish you a gentle Thanksgiving and time to rest and reflect.

With gratitude and thanks,

Lynn 🙏💜🙏💜🙏💜

Durango friends, I am looking for a volunteer to serve as a client model for a photo shoot for the Birdsong Yoga Therapy website. It may require an hour of your time, and in exchange, I am happy to offer you FREE yoga therapy sessions.

My areas of specialty include chronic pain, grief, neurological disorders, and the transition into menopause, though I also work with people struggling with mental health, injury recovery, autoimmune and other chronic illnesses, and generalized stress.

Please DM me if you are interested!

Resilience Yoga continues this Monday evening with a class focused on Depression and Helplessness.

If you are feeling down, stuck, or generally powerless, this practice will provide tools to energize, build self-esteem, and reignite passion, purpose, and sense of personal power.

We will practice movement and asana, stimulating breath work, mantra, mudra, and guided meditation. Tune in live from the comfort of your home, or catch the replay later if that works better for your schedule.

We gather for the live practice from 5:30-6:45 pm MT. Please visit birdsongyogatherapy.com/upcoming-events/ for details and registration.

I am feeling lots of anger right now because of the systematic dismantling of environmental, educational, charitable, and equitable programs in this country that I care deeply about. I am equally enraged at the fear, hate, discrimination, and outright stripping of rights being directed at the LGBTQ community.

I can’t possibly list all of the things that bring up anger in me, and I know I don’t have the bandwidth to take on the activist role for all of the issue I care about. What I CAN do is self-care practices to address my anger, and I’d like to share some of these with my virtual community who may be looking for tools to help themselves in this moment in time.

The next class in the Resilience Yoga series will focus on managing anger. This class meets on Zoom next Monday, 5:30 – 6:45 pm MT, but will be recorded for those unable to attend live. I will guide you through movement and posture, breath, mudra, mantra, and guided meditation to help you acknowledge your feelings, reduce emotional reactivity, calm the mind, and build resilience and steadiness.

Offered on a sliding scale, $15 - $25. Hope on over to birdsongyogatherapy.com/upcoming-events/ for details and registration.
