Path to Calm

If you’re looking for some short, easy, low-pressure New Year practices, the kind that help you feel a little more refreshed, regulated, and maybe even gently hopeful, we have something special waiting for you at Path to Calm.

Our Beyond Resolutions practice offers a quieter way to begin the year, rooted in presence rather than pressure. You’ll also find a small collection of brief breathing, mindfulness, and nervous-system-supporting practices you can return to anytime.

No fixing. No striving. Just a place to land.
You can explore the free, easy to access, practices here:

Wishing all of us a peaceful new year filled with many deep breaths and some peaceful moments.

Explore sample meditations, breathing practice, and guided rest practices to support you in uncertain times.

Each class stands on its own, so you can attend one, two, or all three for a deeper fall reset.

6–7:30 pm | $30 per class
Boalsburg Yoga & Wellness

Had a wonderful time a few weeks ago teaching yoga immersed in nature at "Women in the Big Woods" a fantastic annual event sponsored by Pennsylvania Parks and Forests Foundation. This year it was held at French Creek State Park. Participants explored the natural world, learned amazing outdoor recreation skills from State Park and PPFF team and had a generally amazing time. Big thanks to Marci Mowery and the PPFF team for the invite! Connect with PPFF for other great nature based events.

Our mind is where we spend the most time,
where we think, overthink, dream, fear, relive the past, and imagine the future.

So ask yourself this honestly:
👉 Is your mind a sanctuary or a battlefield?
👉 Is it a place of calm or a storm of chaos?

🧘‍♀️ Your Mental Space is Sacred. Treat it Like It Matters.

We often clean our homes, organize our desks, and take care of our bodies...
But we forget to tend to the most important space: our inner world.

Your thoughts shape your mood.
Your mood shapes your energy.
And your energy shapes your reality.

So when your mind is cluttered with negativity, comparison, self-doubt, or unhealed wounds —
life feels heavier than it has to be.

🌸 Start Cultivating a Kinder Mind:

Speak to yourself like someone you love.

Let go of toxic self-talk — you’re not your mistakes.

Practice gratitude: train your brain to see what’s right, not just what’s wrong.

Meditate. Reflect. Take time to breathe and be.

Protect your peace. Choose thoughts that nourish your soul.

🧠 Remember:

If your mind is filled with stress, fear, and self-criticism — your world will reflect that.
But if you fill it with peace, hope, compassion, and possibility —
you build a world that feels safe and joyful to live in.

Let your inner world be your greatest sanctuary.
Make it quiet. Make it kind. Make it free.
Because you’re the one who has to live there — always.
