Booking THERAPY INTENSIVES FOR May and June!
Have you been told you should do yoga, but the poses are difficult to hold? Or, you want to practice yoga, but you don’t have the flexibility and balance like the yogis in the video.
The good news is that you might not have to give up on yoga practice just yet! Chair yoga offers a gentle accessible way to experience the benefits of yoga, whether seated or using a chair for balance.
ou’ve likely already mastered the art of checking in: with teachers to see how you’re doing in a class, with doctors to keep your health in check, or with collaborators to see how a project is shaping up. If you’ve followed our newsletters for a while, then you may also know about another crucial check-in: checking in with yourself.
Is your home feeling stuck or stagnant? Do you run into things, feel like you are losing items constantly, or frequently end up with piles of clutter no matter how much you clean? This can all create tension in the home and dampen the liveliness and coziness of your home.
Have you heard of Feng Shui before? It’s a geomancy practice focused on the energetic relationships between the person and environment. This week, let’s see what practical strategies we can learn from Feng Shui to liven our home.
Monday through Thursday is slow and boring, or filled with stressful events and projects to get done. You think, just hold out to the weekend. We’ve got 4 days…3 days…2 days until Friday. There’s a movie releasing this week, or a fun project that’s sitting in your mind, but during the week there’s no time for it. It’ll have to wait for the weekend.
Then finally, when Friday hits, we’re so close to being released from the entrapment of work—TGIF, Thank God it’s Friday, as some people say. Time to let yourself relax and finally do the things you were looking forward to all week.
Saturday whirls by—maybe you see that new movie, get started on a project, or relax a bit, but the day blurs by all too fast. Sunday rises and the dread sits in, Tomorrow is Monday and this whole cycle will start again. Maybe you make a little bit more headway on your project, but you carry the dread Monday with you all day. Sunday ends, Monday begins, and the cycle restarts.
Are you stuck in a project? Can’t think of how to get that pesky idea onto the page? Or are you having trouble staying focused long enough to get started and working on a task? The research might just tell you to take a hike!
This week, let’s explore how movement helps us think, and practical ways to incorporate movement into our routine when taking a hike does not fit into our schedule.
We got quite the cold spell this past weekend here in little Central New York. It’s tough weather outside, and for many people, it’s the kind of weather where you just want to curl up in blankets and never leave home—it’s cold, sometimes windy, and just a little unforgiving.
What are we to do when it’s this cold outside? This week, we hope to give you a little inspiration to answer that question for yourself.
Instead of waiting for the perfect version of yourself, try to consciously enjoy being who you are now. This doesn’t mean you stop transforming or you stop growing. After all, you can still enjoy the car ride while heading toward your long-awaited destination.
When we look around at the people around us or online, it seems like everyone can be so confident in themselves and feel secure in their own skin. Yet, sometimes it can be difficult for us to have that same confidence in ourselves.
If having confidence is difficult right now, we have a fresh take on confidence that may help you take the steps towards rebuilding your confident self.
Motivation is hard. Finishing tasks is challenging. Completing goals is difficult. The many responsibilities from day-to-day take up a lot of energy that sometimes it feels like there is no energy left to accomplish anything.
This week, let’s stop looking at the bigger picture and end goal—it feels so far away anyway. Instead, let’s look at our feet and where we are standing now. Then, take one step. And tomorrow, take another step.
Backwards Day is a fun national day celebrated on January 31st. This day encourages us to do things oppositely or backwards, which can give us new insights and be a bit of fun. This week, let’s try new ways of doing things by doing it backwards!
Congratulations on taking this step!
We look forward to working with you!
