Kristen Nice Yoga

Kristen Kay Nice is an Alignment Based Yoga Instructor in Wilmington, NC. Kristen has guest-lectured and taught for numerous organizations.

In her practice, both on and off the Yoga mat, she believes that the “lessons” of Yoga are helpful in finding a balance in one’s connection to the physical, mental and spiritual self, which can lead to improved quality of life. By making Yoga available to everyone, Kristen strives for a communion with her students providing personal instruction during structured classes designed to advance skills, personal discovery and a stronger sense of the power of breath. Most recently, as a guest presenter at UNCW and ECU, Kristen has led workshops focused on using Yogic principles of basic postures and breath-work as a pathway to daily stress management, Kristen has begun to offer business professionals Yoga training for the workplace. She provides Yoga training to a wide variety of body-types, experience levels and welcomes new students for both class and individual training sessions.

“The practice of Yoga is about the unification of the body, mind and spirit. This union can be made through an intricate, rigorous practice, or be as simple as purely connecting to the breath.”

Kristen’s Yoga sessions are focused on the individual growth of the Yogi through structured classes focusing on the individual’s needs. With her calming nature, Kristen has the ability to help her students slow down and recognize the impact that Yoga training has on breath, energy, and the body/mind awareness and assisting her students to find a peaceful center in both the moment(s) on and off the mat moment.

“Yoga has had a profound effect on my life, and will continue to teach me new lessons. Thank you for allowing me to share my Yoga; please, make it yours.”

Today I had the great joy of doing something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. I stood up in front of a class of 30 college students and said, welcome to your Wellness Lab, Restorative Yoga. I’m your instructor, Kristen Nice.

I’ve been able to do so many amazing things in my yoga career and now, holy moly, teaching yoga for college credit!

I’m so grateful for the people that shared resources and encouragement as I prepped for this on very short notice. I will likely feel as though I’m building the plane as I fly it for a bit, but I’m so excited for this journey.

Keep showing up, stay true to yourself, be open to possibility, and opportunity will find you. ✨

A regular meditation practice can reduce stress, anxiety, promote better sleep, and give you the tools to stay present and engaged in challenging situations. ✨ I’ve been running this series for over 5 years and have seen so many people gain the benefits of this practice. 15 minutes twice a day is a small, yet powerful gift to give yourself. This series is extremely flexible to meet your needs. You can find a link ☝️. I hope you will join me!

After 8 months of physical therapy, I rocked out a headstand in my session for over a minute, twice today! 🙌🏻 A year ago, I started having shoulder pain that would get better but never completely go away. After 4 months of frustration, I finally sought PT support.

I have felt disconnected from my yoga practice for many reasons but not being able to practice a standard vinyasa has definitely added to that disconnect. Of course, there are many ways to practice yoga. I do, and will continue to, as my relationship with yoga changes over the years.

Not having my practice available to me in the same way pushed me out into the world and onto the dance floor. I have met amazing people, joined great communities, and learned so much, about dance, others, and myself.

I’m so grateful to have resources available to me so I can get the care I need to do the things I love. Everyone deserves that access.

This is 49. ✨ The past several years have been full of big challenges and even bigger growth. I have remembered that I can do very tough things. I have recovered parts of myself I thought were lost or forgotten. I have embraced being vulnerable, stepping out of my comfort zone and into my power. I have been reminded I am a bad ass goddess. I am brave, and strong, and beautiful in so many ways and I’m so fortunate to have amazing people in my life that remind me of this whenever I feel doubt sneaking in. I’m over the moon to say that these days, my time is filled with more dancing, laughter, hugs, and love than I imagined possible. Thank you for all the beautiful messages yesterday, and every day that we have an opportunity to connect. Please keep reaching out. It means so much to me when you do, and we all need a little more community right now. I’m so excited to see all the gifts to come in the year ahead. Keep showing up. ✨.

Imma just gonna put this here, in case anyone could use it.

You are strong, stable, and rooted. You stay grounded even when the winds of a storm pick up.

“Picture a tree in a storm. At the top of the tree, the small branches and leaves are swaying violently in the wind. The tree looks vulnerable, quite fragile - it seems it can break at any time. But if you look at the trunk, you will see that the tree is solid; and if you look down to its root structure, you will know that the tree is deeply and firmly rooted in the soil. The tree is quite strong. It can resist the storm." ~ Thich Nhat Hahn

Let's be a forest.

This cold weather has challenged me in getting my daily requirement of sun on my face and wind in my hair. I usually meet this need through walks or runs but I haven’t been able to commit to a run in a little over a week. I managed to squeeze one in during lunch today. No surprise mileage today, easy pace, Run done ✅🙌🏻🏃‍♀️

One of the ways I try to live like I’m on vacation is making sure even on work days I do something fun. That might mean reading over lunch, a run, a walk, the beach, retail therapy, connecting with a friend. Something that brings me balance. Nothing that brings you balance is too small. It’s always worth it. ✨

I was fortunate to have this sweet experience today at the Flying School Meditation and Mandala making workshop with the Cameron Art museum. When we take time to slow down and look within, clarity often follows. This mandala was the product of conscious breath, meditation, contemplation, a little dreaming, , play, and connection. I’m loving this process of shedding and becoming, of rediscovering, and getting back to my true self. When asked to title my mandala, Expansion came to mind. I know this year will bring even more growth, discovery, embodiment, expansion, and adventure.

Tonight I cooked for the first time in a long time. Don’t get me wrong, I do make meals for myself. Some may even call it cooking. I pick a menu at the beginning of the week, a box arrives several days later, the box tells me how and what to put together to make a meal. It’s healthy, balanced, easy. And right now, I like it that way.

But tonight I actually made something from a recipe, with ingredients I went to the actual store for ahead of time. Except the onion I had to go for special, since mine had all spoiled…because it’s been so long since I cooked that didn’t come in my box. But I didn’t let that deter me. I walked to the store (to get some steps in), bought that onion, wisely decided against cereal for dinner, and cooked my recipe. It wasn’t complicated or fancy but it was more than three steps and took longer than 15 minutes.

Cooking is something I’ve lost the taste for since the divorce, for a lot of reasons. So, it feels good that tonight I followed through with my plan and got a little lost in the chopping and preparing. And, I even enjoyed the result. And now, I will eat it for the next three days 😆 because that’s how it goes when you cook for one.

It’s strange, the things that shift as we move through a significant transition. I enjoyed cooking for many years. Right now, most days, I don’t. Today I did. And that’s all okay. What’s important is that I keep finding those ways to nourish myself in ways that serve me. Keep showing up.✨

When I moved into my apartment, I created this wall of joy. And, I filled it with all the people and things that supported me through a very dark time. It was a reminder of how much I had to be grateful for and the amazing and unexpected ways people showed up for me.

Occasionally I move things around, add, and put some away for a while. This time, I left a lot of space with the intention to fill it up once again, with new joy.

Also pictured is my vision board from last year. I imagine when I create one for this year, many themes will be similar. But it’s so helpful to reflect and refresh that vision because we are always changing. I recently saw someone refer to a vision board as a “becoming” board, which I’m absolutely adopting. We are always becoming.

When I created the wall of joy, I needed a consistent reminder to help me stay present with gratitude. Now, I’m in a place where I can hold a space of gratitude more consistently, and celebrate joy.

When I reflected on my word for the year, in the Labyrinth it revealed, Embody.

Who wants to embody some joy with me this year? ✨
