There’s so much happening in our world right now. In our communities, in our hearts, in the collective space we all share. The weight of it can feel overwhelming; the worry, the fear, the uncertainty that seems to follow us from moment to moment.

We know that regrounding feels harder these days. Being present feels like a luxury we can’t afford when our minds are racing. Focusing feels nearly impossible when everything feels urgent and heavy.

That’s exactly why we created this 3-minute peace meditation.

Not because three minutes will solve everything. But because sometimes, we need permission to stop, even briefly, and remember what peace feels like in our bodies. To interrupt the spiral of worry, if only for a few breaths. To find ground beneath our feet when everything else feels unstable.

Meditation doesn’t have to be long to be meaningful. It doesn’t have to be perfect to be healing. These three minutes are an offering — accessible, gentle, and real.
If you need a moment today to just be, without fixing or figuring out or fighting, this is for you.

Let’s find peace together, three minutes at a time.

With love and gratitude,
Catherine & Mario 🤍

The New Year began in an unexpected way. A heel fracture and a sprained ankle. 🦴

There’s a certain irony, especially with a new class beginning Monday: Therapeutic Yoga for Bone Health.

The truth is, I’m grateful it wasn’t worse.
I’m disappointed to be injured.
My personal practice will look very different for a while.
My business offerings will shift.
My energy feels different.
The list of outdoor family activities I hoped for this week, did not happen.

What’s humbling is that my right ankle has been speaking to me for months. ❤️‍🩹
Quiet nudges at first then clearer messages.

While I was being checked at urgent care, this quote came to Mario’s phone:

“Stillness isn’t ‘nothing.’
It’s the biggest ‘something’ you can do as a human.
Remembering who you are beneath your thoughts, fears, and compulsions.”
— Cory Muscara

This feels like a reminder many of us receive in different ways.

Our bodies speak long before they demand attention.
Rest doesn’t need permission.
A slower pace doesn’t mean something is wrong.

When energy shifts and when life changes. When stillness arrives unexpected and uninvited…There is wisdom there. ✨

Sometimes healing looks like movement.
Sometimes it looks like listening.
And sometimes, stillness IS the practice.

Happy New Year! 🎊

With love and gratitude,
Catherine

✨ Gentle Beginnings: Restorative Yoga + Sound Journey ✨
A nurturing way to welcome the New Year

Join Kalyani Nicole and Mario for a deeply nourishing New Year’s offering designed to support rest, reflection, and renewal.

The journey begins with restorative yoga guided by Kalyani Nicole, inviting the body to soften, release tension, and settle into deep rest. Once the body is fully supported and open, you’ll be gently guided into a sound journey led by Mario, where healing vibrations from singing bowls and soundscapes help calm the nervous system, integrate the practice, and create space for new intentions.

This experience is not about doing or striving—it’s about receiving, allowing, and beginning the year from a place of grounded presence and ease.

Yoga is Serious…” 😉

…but it’s also human. It’s spacious. You are allowed to have fun.

In one of my recent restorative classes, we were setting up for legs up the chair and suddenly burst into laughter. Not planned. Not forced. Just the kind of laughter that slips through when people feel safe, supported, and present.

And while I don’t necessarily recommend laughing through a restorative class 😄, something beautiful happened afterward. One student turned to another and complimented her laugh.

That student shared that she hadn’t stepped into a yoga class in decades because her first experience felt so serious, so rigid, so not her.

If you’ve ever felt that way, this is your gentle nudge:
✨ Yoga is allowed to hold both seriousness and the lightness of being human.
✨ The practice can honor stillness, discipline, breath, and awareness… while also giving space for joy, connection, and the occasional giggles.
✨ You’re allowed to show up as you are.

Doesn’t it feel good to laugh?😆

Maybe it’s time to give yoga another try. 💛

This week in particular, I find myself reflecting on the beautiful community that has grown around this practice. Thank you truly and deeply for showing up. For choosing yourself. For prioritizing self-care in a world that doesn’t make it easy. 🙏

Thank you for bringing friends, for encouraging co-workers to join us, and for giving the gift of wellness through our gift certificates. 🎁

Your generosity in sharing this space has created something really special.

We are especially grateful for your words. Both the thoughtful Google reviews that help others find us, and the personal stories you’ve shared during and after our sessions. These moments of connection remind us why this work matters.

In times like these, community isn’t just nice to have, it is essential. We need each other. We need spaces where we can slow down, breathe deeply, and remember that we’re not alone in our journeys. That’s what we’re building together, and we are honored to be part of it with you. 💛

As we move into the holiday season, whatever it may hold for you, please know that we are here for you.

This is your space for peace, rest, and belonging.

Wishing you all a peaceful season ahead.🕯️

With love and gratitude,
Catherine & Mario

Each sound journey is a sacred moment of connection, where vibration becomes medicine, and presence becomes healing.

So much gratitude for the opportunity to share, to hold space, and to witness transformation through sound.
