Feeling like you could use a moment to slow down? 💛

Join me for some gentle arm movement paired with slow, intentional breathing. This simple practice can help you settle your nervous system, quiet some of the busyness in your mind, and give yourself a moment of self-care.

This clip is taken from the FREE Yin Yoga class I taught on August 31. If you'd like to keep going, you can enjoy the full class here:

And if you find yourself thinking, I need more of this in my life, I’d love to have you join me this fall. 🍂

My next 8-week Online Yin Yoga series begins Monday, September 21, a weekly opportunity to slow down, turn inward, and make some space for yourself.

🍂 LAST CALL for Harvest & Release Retreat 🍂

If you’ve been thinking about joining us for this fall retreat, this is your gentle nudge. 💛

September 17th is the final day to register.

Harvest & Release is an invitation to step away from the busyness of everyday life and give yourself a weekend to slow down, breathe deeply, move your body, connect with others, and simply be.

Together, we’ll embrace the energy of the fall season and take time to reflect on what we’ve gathered, appreciate what has supported us, and begin releasing what we no longer need to carry forward. 🍁

✨ Yoga + mindful movement
✨ Qigong, meditation + breathwork
✨ Time in nature
✨ Nourishing food
✨ Connection + community
✨ Space to rest, reflect, and recharge

📍 Five Oaks Retreat Centre | Paris, Ontario

Something special is coming...

This September marks five years since I taught my very first yoga class. WOW! 🥹

I've been doing a lot of reflecting lately on where I started, how much has changed, what I've learned along the way, and most of all, the incredible people I've had the privilege of moving with over these past five years.

What I know for certain is that I'm still very much in love with teaching, and I adore all of you who help make it so rewarding. 💛

So, during the week of September 21, I'm going to celebrate this milestone and thank the wonderful community that has made these five years possible.

I'll be sharing more very soon...

For now, I just want to say:

Five years. Wow. My heart is very full. 💛

Let’s give your hips, spine, and shoulders a little love today. 💛

Join me on the ground in Deer Pose as we move gently to create a little more mobility in the hips, spine, and shoulders. Prefer to stay off the floor? You can absolutely do this movement seated in a chair instead.

And don’t forget to give the other side some love too!

This clip is taken from the FREE Gentle Flow class I taught on August 29. If this short movement feels good, you can enjoy the full class here until September 30th:

What if you gave yourself one weekend?

One weekend where you don't have to plan the meals, take care of everyone else, or check another thing off your list.

A weekend to slow down. Move. Breathe. Spend time in nature. Laugh. Connect. Reflect. And maybe even do absolutely nothing for a little while. 💛

That's what my sister Stacy and I have created with our Harvest & Release Fall Retreat, now only a month away.

We already have a lovely group of women joining us, and we'd love to welcome a few more.

If something in you is whispering, I could really use this... maybe this is your invitation to listen. 🍂
