The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali are a collection of short, poetic teachings that offer guidance on calming the mind and living with greater awareness. The very first sutra, “Atha Yoga Anushasanam,” translates to “Now, the practice of yoga begins.”

This simple yet powerful statement reminds us that yoga doesn’t only start on the mat or in a studio. It begins now, in this very moment, and it can begin again and again. Each breath, each action, and each choice is an opportunity to return to presence while practicing mindfulness, patience, and living with compassion and grace.

When life feels messy or challenging, that’s often when we need yoga the most. Rather than waiting for the “right” time to begin, we can pause, take a mindful breath, and begin again, right where we are.

Shanti (Peace),
Liz

Take a slow inhalation through your nose and notice the moment of stillness that naturally appears before you exhale. Allow that quiet space to expand, resting your mind there for a heartbeat before releasing the breath. With time, this pause becomes a gentle reminder that presence lives in the spaces between each inhale and exhale.

There is something magical about the first blanket of snow, how it softens the world and hushes the noise around us. Whether you love it or long for warmer days, let this quiet moment invite you to pause and be. Notice how everything slows: the air, the sounds, even your thoughts. Before it melts away, take a deep breath and allow yourself to rest in the same stillness and presence that winter's beginning offers. Carry that quiet with you into your day, letting it soften the edges and remind you to accept what is.

With warmth,
Liz ❄️

The first frost settles softly, reminding us that stillness can be its own kind of beauty. In the quiet light of early autumn mornings, our practice becomes a gentle way to warm from within — to move, to breathe, to soften. Wrap yourself in presence this week. Let the mat be where you thaw, release, and begin again.

A Special Note ✍️ Yin for Deep Release + Healing had to be postponed to this Saturday, November 15th. If you were hoping to join, but last Saturday didn't work out - you're in luck! Head to your app and book your space today.

The holiday season doesn’t have to feel hectic.

Join Liz next Friday for Holistic Holidays: Ayurvedic Wisdom, a restorative evening designed to help you move through the winter months with greater ease, balance, and awareness.

Together, we’ll explore how to work with the grounding energy of the season—rather than against it—through the lens of Ayurveda.

Leave feeling centered, nourished, and ready to embrace the holidays from a place of calm.

Inhale deeply through your nose, feeling the cool air move in, then exhale slowly through your mouth, releasing what’s no longer needed. Imagine your breath as wind moving through falling leaves, steady and gentle, full of ease. Let each cycle remind you that, just like nature, you too are allowed to pause and let go.

Where Mindfulness Begins

The light and love that is me… recognizes, honors and bows to the light and love that is each of you.

A turn of phrase I’ve ended my classes with for so long, I can’t honestly recall the first time those words came together. But it doesn’t matter. The sentiment that I communicate out to my students comes as a result of a powerful journey that started solely because I wanted to work out without sweating!

For many, yoga can seem like a daunting, cliquish activity of devoutly flexible folks — all bending to complex-sounding poses like Eka Pada Rajakapotasana. But after more than 4,000 hours of teaching the practice, let me say that yoga simply isn’t that.

Yoga is more than exercise, mantras or an excuse to wear comfortable pants. I’ve come to learn it is a set of tools that bring wellness to the body and mind. And over time, my students and I come to understand the transformational power of the practice. It’s how I’ve taken my naturally “Type-A+” personality and have seen it relax it into what I’ve happily dubbed “Just a Regular Type A”. See? Progress.
