Courage, Comfort Zones, and Quantum Healing ~ Part I

Courage, Comfort Zones, and Quantum Healing ~ PART I It was 2010 and I remember my first East Wind Yoga class with Vanessa like it was yesterday. I was so nervous walking into the studio. I felt completely out of my comfort zone, not knowing what this experience had in store for me, new to practicing yoga in a studio, and trusting the whisper in my gut that roared, “you need this, trust it!” Being new to anything takes courage and trust and you never forget your first yoga class! So here I am with no yoga mat, hardly any clothes on, clueless what I was getting myself into, and no idea the class was heated. With that said, I loved the vibe in the room, the teacher, the music, the sweat, and more importantly that I was practicing yoga again. It is now 2019, almost ten years later and here I sit reminiscing about the new year vibes, yoga, the past, the future, the risks, the failures, my two beautiful boys, being a mom, wife, teacher, and all the in-betweens. All the sweat that has dripped off my nose, the smelly soaked yoga clothing, falling in and out of posture, getting back up again, forgetting the second side of a sequence, the laughter, the tears, the comings and goings of yoga students and teachers, the heart warming community, the 40 day, 90 day, 120 day yoga challenges, sunrise yoga, community events, hikes, workshops, yoga teacher trainings, and so much more. Taking those courageous steps into East Wind Yoga for that first class and hundreds of classes after, almost 2,000 hours of teacher trainings, so many workshops, and events, I have attended and/or lead have all completely transformed my life! While I have grown into the role of teacher and guide, the transformation continues! Yoga is a study and I’m taking the study a bit beyond my comfort zone to offer a transformational class into the self, the soul, the ego, and so much more! I am excited to share a new courageous journey beyond the yoga mat with medicine healer Donna Arz, called Quantum Healing on February 2nd from 2-6pm. Stay tuned for more details and for PART II of Courage, Comfort Zones, and Quantum Healing. “We are in an era of soul and self empowerment and an age of energy. “This is a profound time to be alive. I consider it an extraordinary privilege to be alive now because we are living in this incredible time of transformation.” Caroline Myss Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for reading.
