This Shift Is A Game Changer


This Weeks Off The Mat

Hello Reader,

There’s a shift that changes everything and it’s not moving forward… it’s going back.

Back to the beginner class.

In Today’s Edition

  • The gift of returning to the basics
  • Why repetition is where real practice begins
  • Knowing when it’s time to ask for support

Making Time for Yoga

We often think the next level means doing more, learning more, advancing.

But the reel shift happens when we return to the basics. Repetition is not accidental. It is intentional.

The first time you move through a pose, you place the body.

The second time you begin to feel the body.

That's where the practice begins.

Are you doing it again or are you seeing something new?

This week, I shared a Reel about the gifts that live inside the beginner’s mind.

Off The Mat

This week reminded me of something just as important.
Knowing when to ask for support.

I was a guest on a Lunch & Learn with Creative Blueprint Graphic Design, sharing the story behind publishing my gratitude journal. There was a moment I couldn’t move forward on my own.

The KDP (KIndle Direct Publishing) upload has nuances I didn't understand. So I reachout. I handed it over.

And with the right support, everything came together files, keywords, categories, all the details.

It was a reminder:
We don’t have to be everything.
We don’t have to do everything alone.

Because when we try, we often end up overwhelmed and sometimes we walk away from something that truly matters to us.

Final Thoughts

This week, whether it’s your yoga practice or something in your life return to the basics.
Repeat with awareness. And give yourself the grace to ask for support when you need it.

That's where the real growth happens

Until New Time

Off the MatWelcome to Still Point Sundays Hello Reader, There is a quiet moment right now just at the edge of winter and spring. The light is shifting. The days are stretching. And yet, something in you may feel slower. This is not something to fix.This is something to honor. Nature does not rush this transition and neither should you. This is your Still Point.A space where nothing is fully blooming yet, but everything is gently awakening beneath the surface. If your energy feels different,...

This Week Off the Mat Let’s clear something up. Yoga was never about touching your toes. It was never about the “full expression.” And it was never about getting it right. Somewhere along the way, it turned into performance. Women come to me thinking… They’re not flexible enough… They’re behind… They’re doing it wrong… The yoga industry has been selling you performance. Perfect lines.Full expressions.Flexibility as proof of worth. And quietly, women internalized it. “If I can’t do the full...

This Week Off the Mat I joined my pottery class one week late. I didn’t even know about it until after the first session.I could have said, “Oh well. I missed it.” Instead, something inside me said, really? So what. It’s pottery.It’s art.It’s for fun. And even if it weren't, would missing one class stop me from beginning? No. What struck me most wasn’t the clay. It was being a beginner again. Not knowing where to put my coat.Where my bag went.How the wheel worked.What tools to gather. There...
