If I’m being honest, over the last few years I haven’t been practicing Yoga very often. I didn’t forget about it though, and my body definitely remembers. Muscle memory is wild like that. Your muscles hold onto the work you’ve already put in, even when life pulls you in different directions away from the mat- surgeries, cancer treatment, the gym, Pilates, grandma-hood, all that stuff. But what impresses me even more is the muscle memory of the mind. It remembers how when I practice a challenging pose or run into a challenge in life, the breath needs to deepen, my focus needs to sharpen. It remembers the times I told myself I couldn’t, but more importantly it remembers the feeling of trying anyway. That mental muscle? It’s built rep by rep, class by class. It’s the one that says “You don’t have to be perfect. You don’t have to be consistent forever. You just have to come back — and trust that every time you do, you’re building on something that never fully left. You can pick up where you left off. Your practice is always here for you” Maybe it’s the poses, maybe it’s the one pointed focus that calms the mind.
Make it a habit. Not because you have to, because you intend to. And because future you will be grateful you did. 🤍 Join me for Flow Mondays at 8:30am and Wednesday at 5:30pm, Slow and Steady Yoga Thursday at 9:30am, or Vin/Yin Fridays at 9:30am
