Lighthouse Yoga

This weekend marked 10 years of owning a little yoga studio!!!

Ten years! A whole decade of showing up, holding space, renaming, relocating & rebuilding. A whole decade of learning & unlearning & realizing the more I learn the less I know. A whole decade of making mistakes & forgetting left & rights but still finding joy in the journey. The journey has been filled with twists & turns yet somehow I've arrived here more steady, softer & more sure than when I began.

Even though I'm still a small studio (continuing to feed my soul not my family), it's my heart & soul. And I know that I'd be nothing without my people. Every class, every message, every shared breath, every person who rolled out their mat with me either once or for years, has shaped me. You've inspired me, taught me & stretched me. More importantly, you reminded me again & again that we all need a grounding, welcoming safe space to land & I love being that space. Thank you for trusting me with your presence & overseeing all my imperfections.

To those who support me in other ways: my mentors & previous teachers, my family, those who like a post, buy a bracelet, read my newsletters, tell your friends or offer feedback, thank you!

I am forever grateful for every moment that brought us here. 10 years!!!! I am here with presence, joy & a humbling sense of awe (& a little pinch to remind me that this is real). Here's to the next chapter however the story unfolds, written together, moment by moment, breath by breath xoxo

Friday night I held space for the most wonderful group of humans during a Candlelight Yoga class.

The theme I offered was Returning: to your community, your practice, your body, your breath & most importantly, yourself. We learned that returning has nothing to do with fixing, improving or changing but it's a simple remembering. Remembering the steady under the wobble, the quiet under the noise, the community that holds you & the practice that makes you feel like you again. The only thing asked of these ladies was to meet whatever they found with honesty as that's where things start to become real & we remember ourselves.

Creating special yoga experiences such as these are truly what lights me up. This evening felt so vulnerable & true & will be forever remembered as one of my favs. The blend of somatic & restorative yoga, tapping, journalling & Indian Head massage just seemed to be exactly what was needed.

Words such as comfort, peace, calm, no worries & gratitude were shared by the group. My word was grounded - a wonderful heaviness of calm & ease.

Thank-you to those who shared this space with me. I'm still feeling the lingering effects of your energy & presence.

Of course, I forgot pics but here are a couple that were shared with me. xo

"Pausing in nature is one of the most important ways we can create space for our nervous systems to reset." ~ Jillian Pransky

Yesterday, after 2 weeks of waiting, we were gifted the most perfect day to begin again, outside.

Nature has a way of settling us. Spending time outside allows the body to soften & the mind to become a little quieter. In the presence of the water, trees, sky & open air, connection is strengthened. It is here that we are reminded that we are a part of something bigger, a wider living community.

Grateful for everyone who shared their time, energy & presence with me. And for those people who missed, we'll share more moments like this. xoxo

My mentor, Alina always spoke of getting your daily dose of Vit J - Joy!

This seemed like the perfect class to borrow a practice from Yoga Journal.

Thank you to all these wonderful yoga humans for bringing me such joy yesterday & today!!!!

Settling back into Lighthouse Cove was rather easy with its familiar sights, sounds, tastes, textures & smells. Each one reminding me that I am "home." For me home isn't a place but a feeling. It shows up as a long, unhurried exhale or a softening in my whole being.

It’s been an amazing week of yoga both online and in person. Online classes were small but meaningful. While we didn't practice outdoors, returning to this space & these humans for a 4th summer felt deeply rewarding. I loved seeing your faces, catching up & sharing space & energy with you. All the hugs were a sweet bonus reminding me that I still belong right here.

I've not only landed in my happy place but arrived back home in my body, my breath, myself. And this weekend, I was lucky enough to have a full nest. A reminder that this feeling of home grows even more when the people I love are gathered together filling the cottage with laughter, sarcasm, presence & love.

This week's lineup:
🏡 Tuesday: Zoom Slow Flow 9:30am
🏡 Wednesday: Outdoor Slow Flow 9:00 am & 6:00pm
🏡 Thursday: Zoom Zen Blend 6:45pm
