Karma Yoga- Kate's Club

Each year, I like to raise money and awareness for a cause. This year my choice is one that is very close to my heart. Many years ago, my children's father passed away. Through the years of coping and growing from this tragedy my children and me joined Kate's Club. This is a grief organization for children who've lost a parent or a sibling. Kate's Club is a huge part of the reason that my family was able to move beyond simply survival and start thriving again. My kids have been able to find a language for their grief and build lasting friendships. Kate's Club offers various forms of therapy (music, animal, art) and well as great field trips and outings. The most transformative event for my family has been the yearly summer camp.  If you would like to help simply visit my website or attend an upcoming Free Karma Yoga class. If you would like more information please visit www.katesclub.org. You can also donate directly through their website.

Yoga for Weight Loss 

Yoga for Weight Loss is a great program to kickstart your weight loss goals.  This program is near and dear to me because often times weight control is a reflection of all the things that we experience in our lives.  So many times we are working on every other part of our lives and we put ourselves last.  The thought is that we can always come back to our own health whenever we want ignoring our needs to really nurture ourselves.  Yoga for Weight Loss is designed to put your health needs front and center so that you can be your best self in your life.  You will learn how to eat and move to stimulate your weight loss goal.   Payment plans are available because I never want finances to be a barrier to reaching your health goals.  Join me for Yoga for Weight Loss and learn how to reveal your best self. Visit the website to sign up.

May Lotus Flowers

May is always such a busy time of year.  The days are longer and that means more activity and fun in the sun.  This month is filled with great outdoor activities, teacher appreciation week, Mother's Day, graduations and the end of the school year for primary, secondary school and higher education.  Therefore, it makes it challenging to find time to stay on top of your health and fitness goals.  This is something I truly understand so I made some adjustments to the schedule to allow for a little deep breathing in the busy month on May.

Yoga Abs

This is a new 30 minute class I have added to the schedule.  Yoga Abs will help strengthen the core muscles and offers deep yoga stretching. Class will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:45pm-7:15pm. Hot Yoga on Tuesdays and Hot Power Yoga on Thursdays will move to 7:30pm.  We will focus on strengthening and toning the abs and lower back.Yoga Abs starts May 19th.  

Artistic Wellness
We all have it. It's a flash of genius, a light bulb idea, a creative talent or breakthrough concept that will change our lives and, ultimately, humanity. The Artistic Wellness Workshop is an 8-week program designed to assist creative people with completing their creative projects and deadlines. The program will utilize yoga, breathing techniques, meditation and goal setting to establish patterns and routines for success. In this workship participants will learn to: face distraction; prolong concentration; stimulate perseverance; face fears, create balance, priotize schedule, maintain authenticity, and enjoy the art of revising.  The workshop will begin Sunday, June 7th from 3pm-5pm.  Visit www.ilovemytemple.com and complete the contact form to join.  Class will take place in person or online.  Please specify which format you are interested in taking.

April Love Showers

It's Spring!  This is one of my favorite times of year.  The longer days allow me to do two of my favorite things: garden and help my clients reach their health and wellness goals.  Something about the hint of summer makes people more open to reach their goals.  So, of course I am here to help.  My goal is always to use my knowledge and my passion for service for those who want to live healthier lives and thrive.

Wellness Coaching
One thing about having a yoga and wellness business is that things always happen organically.  I know there are lots of people out there doing wellness and life coaching and I am happy to see this become such a thriving business.  It speaks to the fact that many are seeking ways to be more grounded in their life's purpose or their life's work.  For me, that is what wellness coaching is all about.  It's about helping people get into the the flow of their life.  I enjoy taking the tools I have learned and sharing them with those who seek to live a more balanced way of life.  Think of it as yoga but on and off the mat.  If this sounds good to you see the wellness coaching section of www.ilovemytemple.com to sign up.

Fly Yoga Trip
We are still on for our trip to Tulum, Mexico September 10-14th.  Visit the Fly Yoga link on www.ilovemytemple.com to sign up.

Artistic Wellness
I believe that everyone has a creative gift or talent that we are here to uniquely express.  Artistic Wellness came about because I am surrounded by these wonderfully gifted creative people who were wanting to express their talents and gifts.  The challenge for many creative people is bringing their creative projects to fruition.  The workshop is designed to assist you with getting your creative process together.  Join me and I will share with you ways to bring your creative gifts to light through yoga, breathing and meditation. If you are interested in participating in this 6-week workshop please leave your information at www.ilovemytemple.com subject -Artistic Wellness.  Note:  In June, we will have a 1-Day Painting and Yoga workshop.  More information coming soon!

Power Yoga and Hot Power Yoga Classes
It's been a few months since I have taught Power Yoga due to a car accident I had in December.  I wanted to make sure I was strong enough and had to honor the healing process in my own life in order to lead this class.  Based on popular demand, I am adding Power Yoga and Hot Power Yoga back to the weekly schedule.  Visit www.ilovemytemple.com to book your class today.

Temple Tees
Temple Tees are a hot item.  Those who purchase them love to share their temple and yoga love.  "I Love My Temple" has become a mantra for me but also its something I love to share because self love and mind, body, spirit empowerment is the standard for my business.  Temple Tees are all about wearing those mantras and reminding yourself of the power of love and the power of YOU.  For me, the ability to share love means sharing it first with yourself. Visit www.ilovemytemple.com to get yours and share your #templelove

Temple TV
Throughout the years, I have met some amazing wellness practitioners.  I know the journey to being healthy and well is all about great partnerships.  Temple TV's first show, "Wellness Warriors" will highlight these wellness practitioners and their businesses.  If you are a wellness practitioner interested in participating please send me an email at ilovemytemple@gmail.com.

Awakening Your Life's Purpose
