What are your plans this week?
Let's party!
The week between Christmas & New Year's may feel like the "No Man's Land" part of the calendar.
You might find yourself rewatching old holiday movies, eating too much, wondering which day it is and if you missed yoga, all while googling various ways to use leftover ham. Please know that I am right there with you.
But also, we have some fun planned for Wednesday & Thursday this week. How does a well rounded yoga class, deep rest, a free garden yoga class, hand crafted gift exchange, and a vision boarding session with Hand Craft Yoga sound?
I know I'm a little biased, but it sounds like the perfect way to close out 2022 to me.
What's a vision board?!
A vision board is a collage of images, words & affirmations that support a goal/state of mind, designed to motivate and inspire you when you look at it. Here are some examples of what it could look like:
Just a reminder...
There will be no classes today, Tuesday Dec 27.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, Dec 28, we will have Noon class, with a 30 minute guided rest afterwards. For just $5, melt away tension and seasonal stress with deep relaxation at Yoga Nidra. If you plan to join me from 1 to 1:30 pm, click the button below:
| Yes, count me in for the nap |
Also tomorrow, Wednesday Dec 28, we have a FREE garden class at 5:30 pm followed by a white elephant gift exchange wine down at Spring Creek Garden Center! I'd love to see each of us bring something handcrafted/under $10...No stress, just a lighthearted way to share our creativity, giggles, and a glass of wine/beer. Can you come party with me?
| Yes, I will be present at the white elephant party! |
On Thursday, December 29, our official last practice of 2022 will be the Time Travel Experience from Noon to 2pm. If you are feeling the "last week of the year blues", then this workshop is a MUST! Clarify your intention for the new year and move into 2023 with a vision. Save your spot for the last event of the year by clicking below:
| Yes, I see myself on board for the final workshop of 2022! |
Even if you don't make it out of your house during this "no man's land" week, remember that a little yoga is better than no yoga. Just 5 minutes of intentional breath and gentle stretching can go a long way!
Wherever you find yourself this week, may you have a smile on your face, a light in your heart, and a snack in your hand.
Cheers to 2023!
With love,
Monica
Hi, I’m a creator
It's time to get your calendars out... I'm excited to annouce that we have handcrafted not one, but TWO upcoming opportunities to yoga retreat locally this year! I'll be sharing the details with y'all very soon, but for now, clear your schedules for:*September 19-22: three nights of play, rejuvenation, and lakeside fun at Lake LBJ 😎*December 5-8: three nights of crafting, inspiration, and creative fun in Dripping Springs, TX. This will also be Winnie's 14th birthday party/her first yoga...
...of the Student Spotlight! I'm excited to introduce you to our May student spotlight: Sarah B! That's right....Winnie's Nana, my MOM! I am so inspired by her dedication to health and fitness. She is the reason I ever tried yoga to begin with! Even though distance keeps us from practicing yoga together these days, she will always be one of my favorite students. Read on for her thoughtful insights: What is your favorite part of yoga? I like that it’s one of the very few things I can do that...
Let's read into it The Cambridge Dictionary defines half-hearted as "showing no enthusiasm or interest, or a lack of commitment or effort." It defines wholehearted as "completely enthusiastic or interested in something or someone." As I'm reading Brené Brown's "The Gifts of Imperfection" for Winnie's Book Club, I'm reflecting fondly on a workshop I led back in November 2020. This workshop riffed off the "10 guideposts for wholehearted living" that Dr.Brown introduces in the book, and applies...
