November | Week 1
I honor and share my perfectly, imperfect self.
“We are all wonderful beautiful wrecks. That’s what connects us- that we’re all broken, all beautifully imperfect.”
-Emilio Esteves
Well welcome to November 2020! Wow - elections results being tallied, pandemic in full force and for me 1 year anniversary of my cancer diagnosis later this month. November 4, 2019 I would not have predicted anything that is happening in my life right now and I am quite certain you feel the same way. This has not been an easy year, but we are still showing up and plodding along and for that you should give yourself a pat on the back!!!
I am using this intention to help us get ready for the upcoming election results and the holidays…. we’ve got this🤟🏻!!!! However, let's do it together, an intention shared gathers steam and energy - “I honor and share my perfectly, imperfect self” - is the intention and I can’t stress enough how important this is. Don’t keep your feelings inside this month - a trouble shared is halved and a joy shared is doubled!! Let’s let go of expectations of what the holidays are going to look like this year and make the most of what is in front of us. And most importantly let’s use this month for quiet moments of self reflection and self study - we will focus one of the niyamas ( a limb of the 8 limb path of yoga) simply defined as "Svadhyaya: self-study, inner exploration”.
If you are join the cleanse next week, get ready for a deep dive together!!!
“I’m Just Saying…….”
This was the first week of meditation and yoga with a nominal fee. Thank you to all who joined me!!! If you missed it and would like the recording, you can Venmo me at @hang5mom:
15 minute meditation $4
30 minute yoga $8
The recording doesn’t have “a shelf life” - it is yours to replay
Finally, please reach out to me if you would like a private yoga or meditation class for you or a group via zoom to get you all through the holidays!!! Could be a fun family, friend or company wide boost and holiday connection!!!
Also if you have a group of young adults who would like a stress and anxiety mini workshop, please send me an email. I have a lot of empathy for this age group right now, their life is not as it should be and that is very stressful at their age, lots of life pivots and acceptance!!!!!
****And website coming soon as well as an opportunity for a monthly membership! As a member, each month you will receive weekly meditations, weekly yoga and weekly dharma blog posts!! All of the monthly information will be organized and archived for easy referencing for as long as you are a member!!!!
