Sanctuary Yoga with Jenny

Tomorrow the winter solstice takes place - the start of the winter season… the shortest day of the year, the longest night. This is a time of introspection, reflection and slowing down. Light some candles, connect with nature, set intentions for the new season and find some time to be still. 🕯️ ❄️ 📝 🧘

During the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, grounding is very important…
*Feel your feet: press your feet firmly into the floor, noticing the texture, temperature and pressure.
*Use your other senses: look around your space and notice details, listen to the sounds around you or feel the chair supporting you.
*Take long, slow deep breaths; use your breath as an anchor to the present moment.

In the words of poet, David Whyte; “Gratitude is not a passive response to something we have been given. Gratitude arises from paying attention, from being awake in the presence of everything that lives within us and without us and beside us. Thanksgiving happens when our sense of presence meets all other presences. Being unappreciative might mean we are simply not paying attention.”

Tune into your inner voice. Is it a kind voice? Would you speak this way to a friend? Do you allow yourself to feel and express your emotions without judgment? What self-critical thoughts or beliefs do you hold about yourself? What would it look like to respond with kindness toward yourself opposed to self-criticism?

What would it be like if you let everything be just as it is? Without trying to change it or control it. Surrender is the willingness to feel life as it is. When we are surrendered to what is, we are fully available to be present in the living moment.

“No” vember

Here we are in the darker, colder season and just around the corner is the busy holiday season. Our bodies naturally want to slow down. When we overcommit, we burn energy that we may not have at this time of the year.

It’s a good time to start saying “no” to things that drain our energy – unnecessary commitments, social media, unhealthy relationships, negative thoughts.

Saying no to all of these exhausting things will make more space for the things that bring light, warmth and joy. Protecting our energy, time and focus will allow us to prioritize nourishing activities.

What can you say “no” to this month?

What brings you light?
