This pic isn't pretty, or aesthetic, or "IG-worthy" but it's important because it's REAL

So much of social media is cultivated, it is so easy to compare yourself to what you see on someone's feed and feel less-than, feel depressed or frustrated, feel lacking or inadequate in so many different ways. But it's not reality and it is so far from fair to yourself.

I'm currently doing my 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) with I know there are prejudices out there about online yoga trainings and I understand those feelings. I've done trainings in-person, *forced online* (COVID times), and chosen online (also COVID times, but also now).

All I can say is that you need to find what fits your life, what works for you in the moment and what's right in your heart. Honestly, it parallels the practice of yoga itself.

I took this shot to share a bit of my reality and why I love the flexibility that an online YTT can provide. Sometimes you'll find me studiously taking notes while learning about anatomy, lineages, special populations, etc. Sometimes you'll find me meditating, moving my body to truly feel a pose, or observing a class, which is what I'm doing here.

Even if your course is virtual, you still need 45 synchronous hours to register your training with . So here I am observing and participating in a lovely Yin yoga class with Marli. My notebook is out to help me remember wonderful cues or helpful poses. My big ol' pup is lumbering over to snag some snuggles bc Momma is sitting on the floor. There's laundry waiting to be folded, wipes out from cleaning a mess, a scary To Do list on the table, and I'm practicing in my kitchen to keep an ear out for the kids and to keep an eye on dinner in the oven.

Some might ask why I continue through the chaos. I do it bc I love yoga and I LOVE learning. I love becoming a better teacher for my students. Learning new things helps me fill my cup. It helps me be a better partner and parent. I like to think of it as balance versus chaos, of the way I dance through life, fuel my mind, support my body, lean into the messiness and find joy in the mayhem. πŸ’•

Fall is a natural time of slowing down, preparing, getting cozy πŸ‚ Many of us also begin to look inward and reflect 🍁

Even though the season is asking us to slow, to enjoy nature's beautiful colors and crisp breezes, society may be pressuring us to do otherwise - whether it's finding the perfect costume(s), attending all the activities, coordinating everything that goes into that perfect family photo - you name it, it can feel like (and *is*) a LOT

Whatever Fall means to you, whatever pressures exist in your life right now, try to find some ways to fill your cup this beautiful season πŸ’•

Your friends and family love you, and one of the best ways you can show them that love back is by making sure to take a little time for yourself to reset and refresh πŸ’œ

It could be a few deep breaths of the fresh air right outside your front door, actually sitting and enjoying that cozy cup of tea or coffee, giving your favorite furbaby some extra snuggles (great for both of you!) - truly anything you can think of that will help you PAUSE, BREATHE and feel a little lighter and more balanced πŸ₯°

Chair Yoga is back and thriving for Fall 🍁πŸ₯³πŸ‚

It was great seeing so many familiar faces and new students at my classes on Tuesday!

In September, I'm at both Montvale and Emerson

In October, Montvale classes move to Wednesday mornings (Emerson stays put on Tuesday afternoons)

Grab a class when you can or come to them all - all abilities and capabilities are always welcome and our classes are peppered with joy, humor, and connection, all while encouraging mobility and strength πŸ’œ

These are my classes for adults, but any age of adult is welcome - 18+

Classes are FREE, but please remember to register on library websites - classes are getting full and we always work to include as many students as we can with safety and comfort - registration saves your spot in class πŸ‘ Montvale Free Public Library & Emerson Public Library

Can’t think of a happier mistake than parking a bit too far from your destination and happening upon the CUTEST little bookshop πŸ₯°

If you’re near Boonton, make sure to stop in πŸ’•

The books are all used, really wonderfully priced and great quality, the space is cozy and well laid out, they have kids and adult reads, and the shop owner is such a lovely human - we will definitely be back!

Time for a BREAK! I taught my last class of the summer yesterday and today begins Ms. Shelley's Summer Break πŸ˜Žβ˜€οΈ

I'll miss all my yogis, but it'll only be for a few weeks, and then we'll pick right back up in September with all kinds of fun library and rec classes!

Keep a lookout in early September for class schedules - kids/teen yoga classes (+music/art/sensory activities) and adult chair/mobility classes will both be back, plus even more to come in October πŸ₯³

I hope everyone has a joyful, healthy and safe rest of their summer πŸ’•

Chair Yoga continues during the summer @ Emerson Public Library πŸ₯³

We move to MONDAYS @ 1:30 PM for the summer - it was so great to see so many students come out for today's class!

Three more classes for our summer session - July 21 & 28 and Aug 4 - join us for one or for all! (we'll then be on a break and pick back up again after Labor Day ☺️)

This is a class for Adults (18+) of ALL abilities & capabilities - if you want to add some more movement into your day, encourage strength & mobility, and find a little peace, this is a great class to try πŸ’•
