You are never too old. Don't give up on yourself. It's true the older you get the more stiff you become, BUT, that can be reversed through an active lifestyle. Yoga is an excellent way to stay active and keep your body moving - even if an ailment or injury is present.

Meet Tom Allen. At 90 years old, he is the oldest Yoga Instructor in Britain and has no intentions of retiring soon. He began the practice at 55 and is currently teaching two classes a week. He has his sights set on beating the record of an American Yoga Instructor who is 101.

"It has very much kept me in the shape I am now. I follow the yoga lifestyle and do everything in moderation so have kept my weight very constant."

“The quality of your breath is the quality of your life”
- Gurmukh

I love this quote. It's simple yet profound. I often say this to my students in class. How we breathe correlates with how we move around in the world. Is your breath deep and energizing, filling your life with abundance, or, is it shallow and tiring, setting the tone for anxiety and depression?

Come find out in a class. Starting this week you'll have two more opportunities to practice with me!

Yesterday Abe turned 1. Can someone please tell me how to slow down time? I feel like I was fully present all 365 days yet this was the quickest year of my life. Yesterday I felt so emotional as I reflected on the labor and birth of this beautiful boy. I wish I could relive the experience of how both of us worked so hard to bring him into the world. It is truly a miracle to witness the very beginning of another human beings life and I will be grateful every single day of the rest of my life that he chose me to be his mom. Happy Birthday takes on a whole new meaning now. Abe, I love you so much.

"Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go" - unknown

Fall is a time of transition. The warm sun of summer is dipping lower in the sky preparing us for the short, cold days of winter, which ultimately lead us to much reflection. In preparation for that, fall allows us the opportunity to ask ourselves what don't we need anymore? What am I holding onto that no longer serves me?

Wind down with me tonight for Slow Flow at 6:30pm and allow yourself space to answer those questions.

***There will be no class this Saturday morning, 11am. I'll be absorbed in training learning about birth psychology and how it impacts who we become.
