I Love My Temple Store
I love yoga products and so do my clients. This love led me to the idea of upgrading the I Love My Temple Store. On this page you will find Temple Tees, Relaxation Jumpers and my favorite yoga products sponsored by Amazon.com.
Artistic Wellness
I love, love, love teaching online. Many of my clients are busy and can not always make it to class. This gave me the idea to start teaching Artistic Wellness online. However, I still want to build the intimacy of the in class setting so I decided to add a social media aspect to the class where we can support one another throughout the class and beyond. The purpose of Artistic Wellness is to help you find your creative path. In this course you will learn how to harness your creativity and gain strides toward your creative expression. We will use yoga, meditation and breathing to help you improve your creative expression. Look out for announcements for the upcoming workshop through the month of September. If you have questions please feel free to email me at ilovemytemple@gmail.com. Namaste.

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.

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.

Why Meditation Rocks
One of the reasons, I love health and wellness it is because there is always some form of ancient wisdom that holds true for centuries. One such remedy is meditation. Some how ancient sages knew that stillness was the key to optimal health. Maybe they came to this understanding because they didn't have the same distractions that we have today. I couldn't imagine the healer of an ancient village worrying about his social media updates, passwords, pin numbers, bluetooth & wireless connections, global warming, GMOs, car maintenance, taxes, job stress, kids educations and activities and the list goes on. However, I do imagine that the stress of an ever changing world such as growing civilizations, foreign invasions, predators, outbreaks, extreme weather patterns, financial burdens and the like are just as impactful.
One of my favorite shows to watch is Super Soul Sunday on OWN. There was a repeat recently of Russell Simmons' interview. He was of course highlighting the power of yoga and meditation. He expanded on how meditation makes us more present, more focused and more productive beings. He talked about how we can overcome the minds constant chatter by simply being still and allowing the mind to be free of the looping tape called mind stuff.
So why is the ancient practice meditation becoming such a hot topic of the day? The science is out on meditation and all of its benefits. The research is showing that meditation is a great practice for hypertension, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, anxiety, depression, insomnia and the list continues to grow. For more info see https://nccih.nih.gov/health/meditation/overview.htm. What is now being understood about meditation is that it can not only help those with the above health challenges but it can also be a great tool for prevention of health challenges.
There are many different forms of meditation and it is important to find the style that works for you. Meditation practices can focus on gazing, visualization, mantras, the breath or even walking. So it is not difficult to find meditations that fit your personal style.
So how can we get started on our meditative practice? There are many resources available to help you get started. Search online for meditation classes in your area. You can also find meditations on Youtube or order audio CDs to help you build your practice. If you are in the Atlanta area try http://yogahive.org for a free meditation class every Friday at 6:30pm. However, keep in mind that it is important to show up for your practice as often as you can. I personally am offering a free meditation online for the month of March to help those who are interested get moving towards their meditation practice. Just join my Google Hangout Tuesdays 8:30pm EST. Hope you make it!
