Your Portal of Possibility

Winter solstice is a time to honor the darkness in the winter season while also reigniting your inner light.

Everything is constantly changing, mostly imperceptibly. Making the choice to connect with your purpose—with what really matters, is the first step charting a course toward improving health and well-being.

Rest with the pause. Flow with change. Be present with gratitude.

Things often turn out better than expected. Stop picking up what is weighing you down. You can choose to rest. You can choose to let it be. You have the power to decide how to react. May you find a moment today to open your hands, say yes, and dig in to what you love.

Every phase of your life has brought you to this moment.

You are meant to change and grow outside your comfort zone. Life comes with many seasons. Connecting with your authentic self requires self-study and inquiry to what is important.While self-inquiry and growth can be hard, support through transitions in any season helps ease the process.

Winter is nature’s time to slow down, and we should too.

Winter Solstice is the “return to light” welcoming longer days.  It happens slowly, almost imperceptibly, until one day we blink and realize we’ve made another seasonal transition with nature into spring.

We do not impose our will on the days becoming longer, it just happens. We do not force flowers to bloom, they grow from the seeds that were planted in the dark soil where they have been gently nurtured by the earth. While “being busy” may seem the epitome of success, resting is an important part of the growth and creation process.

Keep walking toward your destination and rest as often as needed.

While running will get your there faster, you could be exhausted and injured upon arrival. Take care of yourself, be mindful of the present, and practice the pause that nature has provided in winter. Winter is a wonderful season to:

• Rest.
• Build healthy habits.
• Shift mindset.
• Connect with consistency.

Support is an integral part of every journey in every season.

Just as we use props for yoga practice such as blocks, straps, blankets and bolsters to assist us practicing asanas (poses), accepting support in life with love and gratitude is key to growth. Notice how you practice yoga on the mat, do you resist using a block when it could help lift you into healthy alignment? What is practiced on the mat, goes with you stepping out into the world.

Healthy support is important to move forward with goals.

We all walk through life with the support of the Earth. We ground with every step. Meet your goals with support. I help you “live your yoga” and create the life of your dreams with a sustainable wellness practice. Build healthy habits with consistency and improve strength, flexibility, balance, and focus.
