🌞 Good Morning, Beautiful Souls 🌿

Before the rush of the day sweeps you away, take a moment to breathe, stretch, and ground yourself.

🧘‍♀️ Just 5–10 minutes of gentle movement can:
✨ Awaken your body
✨ Clear your mind
✨ Set a calm, intentional tone for the day

Try this simple morning flow:
1. 🌬 Grounding breath (3 slow inhales + exhales)
2. 🐄 Cat-Cow – 5 rounds
3. 🌳 Seated side stretch – 3 breaths each side
4. 🙏 Seated twist – gently wring out the spine
5. 🌞 Seated forward fold – soften, release, surrender

Affirmation of the Day:
“I greet this day with open arms, steady breath, and peace in my heart.”

Take what you need. Leave what you don’t.
You are enough. 💚

🌿 Fitting Yoga Into a Fast-Paced Day 🕒

In the rush of everyday life, we often tell ourselves there’s no time for yoga… but you don’t need an hour-long session to reconnect with your body and breath. 🧘‍♀️✨

Here are a few simple ways to weave yoga into your busy schedule:

🌞 Morning Stretch (2–5 mins): Roll out of bed, stand tall, take 3 deep breaths, and flow through a few gentle stretches like Cat-Cow, Forward Fold, or Sun Salutations to awaken your body.

🪑 Desk Yoga (5 mins): Release neck, shoulder, and wrist tension with seated stretches right at your desk. No mat needed!

🧘‍♀️ Evening Wind Down (10 mins): Before bed, roll out your mat and let your body soften into a few restorative poses like Child’s Pose, Legs-Up-The-Wall, or Reclining Twist. Let the day melt away.

Yoga isn’t about perfection or time—it’s about presence.
Even one mindful breath can shift your whole energy.

💚 You are worthy of stillness—even in the chaos.

🥣✨ Quick, cozy, and gut-loving ✨🥣
I made a gluten-free comfort soup using canned carrots, canned chicken, sautéed garlic & onion, GF noodles, and a swirl of spices like turmeric, ginger, paprika, and dill.

I topped it with a hard-boiled egg and a squeeze of lemon for a nourishing, anti-inflammatory finish 🍋💛

It’s quick. It’s healing. And it’s made with love.

Save this recipe for your next comfort craving!

👩‍🍳 Instructions

2. Stir in all dried herbs and spices. Let them bloom for 1–2 minutes.

🌖 Tuesday Yoga — In Tune with the Waning Gibbous Moon

✨ Moon Phase: Waning Gibbous
🌿 Theme: Reflect & Refine

After the Full Moon’s bright illumination, the Waning Gibbous invites us to slow down, reflect, and release. It’s a time to honor what’s been revealed, integrate your lessons, and gently let go of anything that no longer serves your highest self.

🧘‍♀️ Today’s Flow: Ground & Let Go
Tuesdays may carry action energy, but today, balance that with intention. Use your practice to connect inward and clear space mentally, emotionally, and physically.

🔹 Seated Twist – wring out what’s no longer needed
🔹 Half Pigeon – soften and surrender
🔹 Child’s Pose – rest and reconnect
🔹 Legs-Up-the-Wall – restore and receive
🔹 Savasana – integrate your insights

💭 Journal Prompt:
“What truth has come to light since the Full Moon? What can I gently release now?”

🌙 Flow softly. Reflect deeply. The moon reminds us: even in letting go, we grow.

Save this practice. Share with a friend who needs a midweek reset. 💚

🌿 Chair Yoga with Courageous Souls 🌿

Tonight, I had the honor of volunteering and guiding a chair yoga session for individuals who have experienced limb loss. It was my first time holding space for this community, and I’m truly humbled by their strength, openness, and resilience. 🧘‍♀️💚

We moved together, we breathed together, and we reminded each other that healing can happen in so many beautiful ways—through movement, community, and the simple act of showing up.

This experience touched my heart deeply, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to share this practice with such inspiring humans.✨

To anyone navigating life after limb loss: your courage shines. You are seen. You are strong. You are not alone.

A special thank you to Stephanie Murphy for inviting me to facilitate this meaningful session. Your heart for the community is such a gift. 💜

🌿✨ Monday Madness Meets Mindful Movement ✨🌿

Mondays can feel like a whirlwind — full schedules, heavy energy, and never-ending to-do lists.

But what if you gave yourself just ten minutes to pause…
to breathe…
to stretch…
to return to your center?

🧘‍♀️ Yoga doesn’t have to be an hour-long flow.
It can be a few deep breaths at your desk.
A gentle twist in the kitchen.
A moment of stillness in the chaos.

Let your Monday madness meet mindful movement.
Your body and soul will thank you.

🌙 Start where you are. Move how you can. Come back to you.
