WHO IS THIS VINYASA YOGA TRAINING DESIGNED FOR:

Vinyasa Yoga is a popular yoga style defined by a linkage of the breath and movement while inhabiting a meditative space – a moving meditation. There are a variety of vinyasa styles ranging from vigorous to a slow flow, but this linking of breath and movement anchors the asana practice.

This interdisciplinary vinyasa training is designed for:

  • Those who seek a more challenging and inspirational asana practice and style of teaching.
  • Those who wish to immerse themselves in yoga theory, methodology, and philosophy.
  • The chronologically young and those of any age who are young at heart and wish to remain
    physically active, injuries and physical challenges notwithstanding! Modifications are available
    to everyone, making yoga accessible to all.
  • Those seeking to transform their lifestyle through physical activity (the asanas) as well as
    meditative and spiritual practices (8 limbs).
  • Those with a desire to learn and share more of the wisdom and philosophy of yoga teachings.

Our Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training students have ranged in age from 19-68 and we recognize the immense value of a diverse group of students! Does this sound like you? We hope you’ll join us!

A deep exploration of modifications, an Iyengar-style use of props, pranayama, and yoga philosophy will be included.

I had a rager taking place in my head yesterday af I had a rager taking place in my head yesterday afternoon, the kind that starts out harmless in the morning like a few friends walking on the beach and the sun is too hot and bright; but then it morphs into drunken crazies playing their music too loud and jumping and stomping around in heavy combat boots. 

It was that kind of day. 

I let it ride until about 2pm, when those drunken crazies transitioned to angry and it was time to do something about it. A little caffeine started us out, no change. By the time I popped an ibuprofen, it just continued to party. Louder and brighter and louder. I tried a nap - albeit a short one - and got up to pop a couple of these babies. Within a few mins, magic happened. I was able to drive a real life teen to work without cringing OR starting an argument. 

If this is the longest commercial for any product you’ve read, it’s because I was sitting in traffic on Sandbridge Road without internet, so there was time to wax poetic to myself, sans headache. (Just couldn’t take the photo I wanted til today.)

Get yourself some Revive if you want to treat your headaches without torturing your kidneys. This is your jam.  Seriously, any inflammation…? Post-workout, allergies and congestion, monthly cycles, headaches - this is my new go-to.

I tried to capture this beauty yesterday, but the I tried to capture this beauty yesterday, but the wind kept blowing the blade of grass, and it was hard to get a good focus.

(And honestly that blade of grass is really pretty too!)

It’s a beautiful red dragonfly, and I couldn’t help myself looking up the symbolism of this patient little critter, who seemed to pose for me in spite of my focus issues! 

“In almost every part of the world, the Dragonfly symbolizes change, transformation, adaptability, and self-realization. The change that is often referred to has its source in mental and emotional maturity. 
The Dragonfly is iridescent both on its wings and body.  Iridescence shows itself in different colors depending on the angle and how the light falls on it. The magical property of iridescence is also associated with the discovery of one’s own abilities by unmasking the real self and removing the doubts one casts on his/her own sense of identity.
The Dragonfly normally lives most of its life as a nymph or an immature. It flies only for a fraction of its life.  This symbolizes and exemplifies the virtue of living in the moment and living life to the fullest. By living in the moment you are aware of who you are, where you are, what you are doing, what you want, what you don’t, and to make informed choices on a moment-to-moment basis. 
The Dragonfly has been a symbol of happiness, new beginnings and change for many centuries.  The Dragonfly means hope, change, and love.”

The next time you catch sight of a dragonfly - and there are so many out right now - let it be a reminder to live for now!

Synchronicities and sunrise Yesterday we moved in Synchronicities and sunrise

Yesterday we moved into our 7th temporary home since February. It’s a big but beat up old house right on the beach, but the sunrise was nothing less than awe-inspiring today, and I am so grateful for this place in spite of a burning desire to want to be home. 

I was reminded that there are no accidents and that when you feel the pull to connect with someone you should not ignore it. 

WARNING: Long story ahead… 😝

Friday, I had an appointment to chat with a new friend about retreats she hosts, she was interested in yoga and sound healing. She is a mama thriving in spite of unbearably difficult circumstances and health issues with her children, one of whom she lost to an unforgiving disease. 

Yesterday, (Saturday) new neighbors moved in to the house next-door. They seemed like a fun bunch who were incredibly happy to be starting their vacation on a gorgeous July afternoon. I had to run out for a bit that evening, and when I came back, I followed an ambulance all the way back to our neighbors house.

I stifled the little voice inside my head that said “mind ya business,” and I walked over to tell them we were locals and if they needed to reach out to us for any resources that we would be happy to help.

And this is where I felt the synchronicity began. 

It turns out their 19-year-old son has the same unforgiving disease that my new-friend-from-yesterday’s son has. I’ve written down her contact information and I am hopeful to see them today so they can make the connection and feel supported while they are here. 

(I wrote this yesterday morning, but ran out of time to finish and post.  Sorry for any date confusion if you know our story.)

The song we sang in church yesterday…
Gonna burn bright, gonna let love rise, gonna shine like stars in the heavens
Gonna burn bright, got just one life to shine like stars in the heavens

Note to self (and you too): be bold. Don’t hesitate to connect when you feel that pull. You might be the tiny star that lights the way on someone’s dark path. Burn bright, we’ve got just one life to shine like stars…

Praying over this family and for boldness to connect again even when it might not feel natural.
There is always light. If only we’re brave enoug There is always light.
If only we’re brave enough to see it. 
If only we’re brave enough to be it.
~Amanda Gorman

It is my hope for you today that you are able to see the light, to find the light; and if you are that person who can share the light, I hope it burns bright to the degree that those around you feel most loved. 

You are loved. 

And if you can’t find your light, come share some of ours. We don’t just shine, we are Shine. And if you’re here, you’re a part of that. Join us - for a class, as part of the team, or if you need an ear to listen or a shoulder to share the burden of something heavy. 

Be well, friends. Get out in your community and Shine On!

The morning message today from Sacred Creator was The morning message today from Sacred Creator was “collaboration of souls” - and it was the second day in a row. I guess I must’ve missed something yesterday!

“Your greatest asset is the soul connection you make with others, and those that you make and foster at this time will bring fruitful change… Which sacred unions are you pursuing?  Long-term commitments and strategic partnerships are based on trust, love, respect, and an alignment of values, and it’s time to actively call collaboration partners into your life.”

Since re-opening the studio three years ago, I’ve met the most extraordinary people - teachers and students and other studio owners. This message just makes me pause and wonder with whom will my next collaboration be. I know the answer will come in the right timing, and I also know it will be big.

Is it you? 

Are you a teacher looking for a studio home? 
Are you a student looking for a class? 
Are you a studio owner (or other business owner) interested in sharing best practices and resources? 
Do you seek deeper connection with your body, mind, and spirit through a teacher training? 
Are you seeking, not even sure what you’re seeking, but you feel the tug on your heart? 
Do you crave the feeling of being comfortable in your own body?

If the answer is yes, then it’s time to connect, time to collaborate. Creator says so. Reach out. Let’s do this.

My husband took this photo of me earlier this week while he was making dinner. Hard at work in the kitchen, right up to the “last minute,” with wild hair and tired eyes. 

We have so many great workshops and classes and retreats coming up at the studio - and my family is gearing up to move again. Two more temporary moves in two weeks and then hopefully our final move back home at the end of the month. I’ve never considered myself much of a nomad, but here I am!! Thanks for all your kind words after my last personal update email. It’s a wild journey and we’re still just trying to enjoy all the shenanigans along the way. 

Some of the really cool things we’re doing aren’t even on the schedule yet - but I promise I’m getting there. Check out all the announcements on Facebook- and please share with a friend!!

When you’re ADHD and on travel but not living at home so your root chakra is blown, you bring three blank journals (in addition to the journal you’re still using) and two dozen colored pens. 

All joking aside, yoga and meditation and a morning devotional and journaling make all the difference in the world to this scattered brain. If you haven’t started a morning routine yourself, pick up one good habit, give it five minutes every morning, and let the good times roll into something better all day long and every day! 

I’m still working on getting my Flourish program prepped and ready. Let me know if you’d be interested in linking arms and creating some good habits together.
