In-person retreats are back. And it was incredible to have conversation beyond “are you done with that mat spray”. We practiced, meditated, read, hiked, sweat in the sauna, played Banagrams and slowed down enough to connect with ourselves, each other, and nature. Can’t wait to do it again—hope you’ll join for the next round of finding pleasure in the pause.

The Unwind, our new Friday night class with Lorraine, is basically the opposite of this week—a giant exhale. Soften, settle, and let go with gentle movement, breath work, and maybe some sound bowls.

Because when everything else is shutting down… you might as well, too. (But in a healthy way. With blankets.)

Meet Petey! This lil nugget has been hanging around our Lamont studio. We decided they needed a better name than Yoga Cat. And boy did you get creative—Cat-uranga, Pigeon, Shanti, Señor Gatto, Cookie. In the end we voted on Petey, like PT for Past Tense.

And twist in the tail 😉 There’s a possibility Petey is one of the Blue Collar Cats we adopted with Elle to live behind our Alley studio. We can’t be paws-itive but we’re purr-fectly happy with how it all turned out. 🐈‍⬛. Photo by
