Happy Mother’s Day, Beauties!

Today, we celebrate the strength, softness, and sacredness of motherhood.

To every mama, bonus mama, grandmother, and mother-figure who continues to pour from her heart, nurture life, and love through it all—you are seen, celebrated, and so deeply loved.

At Beauty For Ashes Yoga Wellness, we honor the mothers who rise early, pray deeply, breathe through the overwhelm, and still find time to show up—for themselves and their families.

You are the heartbeat of your home.
You are the light in dark seasons.
You are the embodiment of grace, resilience, and unconditional love.

Take time today to pause, breathe, and receive the love and care you so freely give.

You deserve rest.
You deserve joy.
You deserve to be poured into, too.

From our hearts to yours—Happy Mother’s Day!

With love,
Kimberlee

Hello Beauties!

Happy Tuesday!

Theme: Letting Go

Let’s take a moment to pause and ask ourselves: What are we still clinging to that is no longer serving us?

Is it a past hurt? A fear of the unknown? The weight of unrealistic expectations and negative stories that we tell ourselves?

Today’s gentle reminder comes from the wise Thich Nhat Hanh:

“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness.”

In yoga, meditation and sound healing every exhale is an invitation to release.

Release tension from the body.
Release stories from the mind.
Release heaviness from the heart.

On our mats, we don’t just stretch muscles—we soften resistance.

We breathe through discomfort.
We learn to surrender.

Letting go isn’t about forgetting or giving up—it’s about making space.
Space for peace.
Space for joy.
Space for you to be fully present and fully free.

So today, I invite you to breathe deeply and ask yourself:
What can I let go of in this moment?

Meet yourself with grace. Unroll your mat.
And exhale your way into freedom.

You are worthy of a life unburdened.
You are worthy of peace.
You are worthy of love.

With love and compassion,
Kimberlee

Hello Beauties,

Happy Tuesday!

The Theme of the week is Stillness!

As we immerse ourselves in the twinkling lights, festive melodies, and the spirited rush of the holiday season, it becomes increasingly vital to carve out moments of profound stillness. Amid the whirlwind of decorating, shopping, and spreading joy, let’s remember that true tranquility is not found in the external clamor but within the quiet space of our own being.

In the gentle folds of a yoga pose, or the silent sanctuary of a meditative moment, lies a respite—a sanctuary to reconnect with our breath and be present in this moment. This practice is not just about physical stillness; it’s about cultivating a serene haven within, a space where the holiday chaos softens into a melody of calm.

Why is stillness so crucial during this festive period?

Preserving Inner Peace: In the midst of festive fervor, stillness becomes a sanctuary for preserving your inner calm. It’s a conscious pause, allowing you to anchor yourself amidst the joyful chaos.

Navigating Stress: The holidays, while joyous, can bring their own set of stresses. Whether it’s the pressure of perfection or the pace of the season, stillness offers a chance to release tension, breathe deeply, and recenter.

Cultivating Gratitude: Amid the hustle, stillness magnifies the beauty of the present moment. It’s an opportunity to reflect on the blessings, fostering a profound sense of gratitude for the simple joys that make this season special.

With Love and Compassion,
~Namaste

Hello Beauties!

Happy Tuesday!

The theme of this week: Gratitude!

As Thanksgiving gets closer, remember that it is may not be happy time for everyone, but it is the pertect time to reflect on gratitude and the power it holds.

Having a heart of thankfulness is the way to our overall happiness and healing!

When you are grateful, an invisible blanket of peace covers you, it makes you glow, it makes you happy, strong, warm. Gratitude puts mind at ease about everything
around. ~Om Swami

Gratitude is a practice that allows us to shift our focus from what may be lacking in our lives to not only recognize but appreciate the abundance of blessings that surround us.

It is an invitation to pause and offer heartfelt thanks. In the midst of life’s uncertainties, gratitude opens our hearts to receive the God’s love and grace. It encourages us to live with intention and embrace each moment as a precious gift….because it truly is!

What are you grateful for?
What friend can you call, stop by to see or invite over or take out for a lunch who maybe down during this holiday season?

There is Beauty in Every Breath! ❤️🥰

With Love and Compassion,
~Kimberlee

Hello Beauties!

Happy Tuesday!

My last sound bath and restorative yoga workshop was amazing!

Have you ever tried a sound bath? It’s a deeply meditative experience where you’re bathed in the soothing sounds of instruments like singing bowls, gongs, and chimes. Sound healing is all about immersing yourself in healing frequencies, and its benefits are truly remarkable.

Here’s a glimpse:

1. Stress Reduction
The harmonious vibrations from sound healing instruments can swiftly melt away stress and anxiety, leaving you with a sense of peace and calm.

2. Enhanced Meditation
Sound baths can deepen your meditation practice. The resonance of the instruments helps you reach a tranquil state of mind, making it easier to find inner stillness.

3. Improved Sleep
Struggling with restless nights? Sound healing can promote better sleep by relaxing your nervous system and easing you into a deep, restful slumber.

4. Emotional Release
Sound healing can help release pent-up emotions and emotional blockages, leaving you feeling lighter and more emotionally balanced.

5. Physical Healing
Some believe that sound healing can assist in physical healing by harmonizing your body’s energy. While it’s not a substitute for medical treatment, it can be a valuable complement.

6. Connection to Self
Above all, sound healing nurtures a profound connection to your inner self. It’s a journey of self-discovery and healing.

So, the next time you hear about a sound bath, consider giving it a try. It might just be the harmonious experience your body, mind, and soul have been longing for.

Kimberlee

Hello Beauties,

Happy Touch of Calm Thursday!

In keeping with the theme for this week of happiness, one of my favorite things to do that makes me happy is doing a walking meditations, while I hike !

Discover Peace and Happiness Through following these 5 Steps to practice a Walking Meditation.

Step into a journey of mindfulness with a walking meditation. Here are five steps to guide your path to inner peace:

Step 1: Set the Intention
Find a quiet, natural setting or a peaceful park. Stand still for a moment, close your eyes, and take a few deep breaths. Set your intention for this walk, whether it's to find calm, clarity, or simply be present in the moment.

Step 2: Begin with Awareness
Start walking at a gentle pace. As you move, focus on the sensation of each step. Feel your feet lifting, moving, and touching the ground. Pay attention to the rhythm of your breath and the surrounding sounds of nature.

Step 3: Connect with Your Breath
Now, sync your breath with your steps. Inhale for a few steps, and then exhale for the same number of steps. This rhythmic breathing anchors you in the present moment. Feel the air entering your body and the tension leaving with each exhale.

Step 4: Observe Your Surroundings
Open your senses to the world around you. Take in the sights, sounds, and smells. Observe the colors of the leaves, the rustling of the wind, and the scent of the earth. Let the beauty of nature become part of your meditation.

Step 5: Gratitude and Closure
As you approach the end of your walk, pause for a moment. Express gratitude for this mindful journey. Consider the insights you've gained and the peace you've found. Slowly transition back to your regular pace, carrying the serenity of your walk with you.

Walking meditation is a simple yet powerful way to connect with the present moment. Try it regularly to experience the tranquility it can bring to your life.
