How do we prevent self inflicted suffering that is to come in the future? For one thing, it is not easy. It takes diligent practice and consistent awareness of observing your thoughts. Chewing on what might happen or having anxious thoughts about that which you can’t control is like over indulging in rich foods and paying the price the day after. It is satisfying in the moment but creates nothing but suffering later on.
Avoiding unnecessary negative thinking and catching the thoughts at the root is at the heart of creating a peaceful, harmonious life and is worth every effort to do so .
Love is in the air in February. Take the time to offer your heart, mind and spirit some restoration and loving kindness with our specially developed Synergy Healing Session!

Together We call down grace, and gaze without wavering into the fires of creation We find the place where Love embraces fear and tears taste like faith We let our radiance be revealed in laughter and in longing We hold the whole of life, sweet grapes and bitter, healing herbs We hold until we overflow and offer back the gifts that we’ve received The vessel never empties. The growing love between us keeps it filled Donna Faulds
Sending blessings and peace to you all! So much gratitude to our beautiful sangha. I feel so blessed to be on this path with you. Through all the changes, twists and turns of life we continue to grow together and individually in community. A deep bow to you all.
Yoga this Week
No Tuesday morning or Wednesday evening this week.
Join us Friday morning for a special Yin/Yang (active and passive) class ending with a meditation on moving forward into the new year with light and hope! On Zoom and In Person.
During this darkest week of the year let us honor both the light and the dark within and without with the hope of peace as the sun begins to beckon us forward.
“Let us meditate on the light of the sun which shines on the earth, in the sky and in space. May this divine light shine alsowithin illuminating our intellects to make the right decisions at the right time for the good of all

Greetings Dear Yoga Students, – We all know that change is inevitable, but yet we still long to cling to the known, the familiar, the comfortable. George Harrison once said, “If we aren’t changing, we aren’t growing”. Everything that grows must change. It is just as important to our well being to accept and embrace change as it is to breathe.
Be open to the shifting landscapes, the rise and fall of emotions, the ebb and flow of energy. When the waves of change seem to be harsh and the seas are rough around you, remember that you are part of an amazing, vast ocean of movement through which you are inevitably being molded, changed and led in the direction of your divine destiny
“Yoga does not just change the way we see things it transforms the person who sees”
BKS Iyengar
Hari Om Dear Friends,
Look around you. Really take your time and look around. Be thankful for the little things that make up your daily round. Acknowledge the blessings in having the comfort of a home where you feel sheltered and protected. Walk around your space; whether it be in your yard, around your house or your apartment. Consciously take in all the blessings that surround you. Yoga not only transforms how we see things but transforms the person who sees. What do you see around you today?

Much gratitude to all those that attended the Sunday synergy session with me and Lauren. We will be adding another session early next year. These sessions have a limited number of spots and sell out quickly. If you see it on the schedule and you’re interested I would suggest signing up as soon as possible.
Yoga gift certificates are available all year round. Why not give the gift of yoga to someone that you love?
