Now don't get me wrong, sometimes simple can be easy. And that's great. And sometimes there is a place for complexity as well. But the simple, the simple is available. Accessible. And when noticed and practiced regularly, the simple can support us in coming back to center. Back to what's true.
It’s a New Year and life is still kinda weird so why not go ahead and switch things up a little bit!? I’m really excited about this new weekly schedule that features 3 different group classes: Flow, Yin + MFR, and NEW Sculpt Yoga. Classes are offered in-person and online. I hope to see you on your mat!
This is one of my favorite myofascial release (MFR) techniques that I do pretty much daily! Use a therapy ball to release tension and restore tissue integrity in the feet.
