Sleep is such an important part of our life...and unfortunately, it is one of the first aspects to suffer when we experience stress, anxiety, transitions, a new baby, depression, trauma, chronic pain, a fluctuation in hormones...and the list goes on. Fortunately, yoga offers tools to help us fall asleep at night, fall back asleep if we wake up in the middle of the night, and lower overall stress

Yoga Nidra is a type of guided meditation that translates to "yogic sleep." You can find a free Yoga Nidra recording here.

For the next four Wednesdays, I will host a yoga class at the studio!

All of this awareness from yoga or counseling may lead to new intentions, new patterns, and the ability to make change.

Adding on to the concepts of Commitment and Self-Study...

Balance of Effort and Ease

One of the few yoga sutras about asana (physical poses or postures) highlights that asana is about being steady and comfortable, possessing both effort and ease. Holding both of these ideas can be such a helpful guide during yoga or therapy.
