YogaOfftheMat: “Being” doesn’t come naturally to me—I’m much better at “doing.” But I know the importance of stillness and presence to calm the mind and restore the body. After hours of yard work and movement, I was ready for a snack and a good book. 😋🤓Then I realized that my most loyal friend was by my feet and I scooped him into my lap. ❤️ Snuggling your pet, listening to bird songs, feeling a gentle breeze, gazing at fluffy clouds in a blue sky, and taking in the aroma of flowers are all ways to practice mindfulness and being present. How are you “being” this weekend?🤔🙌🏻

YogaOfftheMat: This week we laid to rest our family piano that has been with us for over 60 years! Sadly, she couldn’t be tuned anymore, but she was played and loved by 3 generations over the years❤️. And so my cousins helped deconstruct her with love and salvaged keys, hammers, pedals, and wood to be made into keepsakes. The theme of letting go keeps recurring over the past year, and each time I am reminded that we can do so with love, retaining the special moments in our hearts, in our memories, and in photos and small tokens. How do you hold close and let go at the same time? 🤔❤️🙌🏻

Yoga Off the Mat: we may not know how much wood a woodchuck could chuck, but why do beavers chew wood and make dams? Beavers actually chew bark and leaves for food and create dams to protect their dens from river currents and predators.
Why do you do what you do? Is it habit or purposeful intention? Being busy being busy consumes time and energy, but when your actions are packed with meaning and purpose (in yoga, your dharma), life can flow like a river without any dams.
What’s your calling?

Yoga Off the Mat: consider this a gentle reminder to have your ducks (or goslings!) in a row. This weekend my #1 priority is being with family to celebrate our daughter’s graduation from PA school. What’s your #1 priority?

Yoga Off the Mat: In her poem “The Summer Day,” Mary Oliver reminds us that we are human BEings, not just human DOings. “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” Wishing you moments of just being today😌

Share The Joy
Creating joyful living through yoga.
The goal of My Yoga Joy is to share the benefits of yoga, bringing healing and personal growth to as wide an audience as possible.
Personal transformation can be experienced by anyone through regular practice! Improved physical health, fitness, emotional and spiritual growth and well-being are just a few of the many benefits to yoga.
Here are a few of the ways I'm sharing the joy of yoga
with the Greater Hartford community!
Currently spreading the joy of yoga at St. Mary’s Home in West Hartford where adults with mental illness are enriched through their discovery of self.
Offering the joy of yoga with residents of the Windsor Independent Living Association where adults with intellectual disabilities can expand their possibilities through practicing yoga.
Now enrolling cancer patients and survivors in a free Yoga4Cancer class series at the Bone and Joint institute through Hartford Healthcare at Hartford Hospital.
