Winter is Coming...

,

So, please enjoy the rest of the summer. It’s August – THIRD WEEK OF AUGUST! – already, and for you fellow Winnipeggers, we know that in just a couple (hopefully a few) months our summer memories will be distant as we grumble about the cold. So, instead of sitting inside this weekend, editing the draft of a blog post I originally intended to have up this morning, I decided to just enjoy this summer weekend. In fact, this is me, encouraging you to do the same. Get out and enjoy the remaining weeks of this glorious sunshine because, the other day when I went to get ice cream at 9:00pm (because I’m enjoying summer over here) I noticed that it was getting pretty dark out. The days are getting shorter!!!! But there is still much to be enjoyed. So....

Eat at the food trucks - like all the Food Trucks - I have narrowed my top 3 to The Red Ember, Tot Wheels and Habanero Sombrero. 

Get your BDI ice cream and wander across that bridge!

Head to the beach/lake/cabin and stay on the sand until the skies turn orange. 

Go for boat rides and bike rides.

Use your BBQ and eat on the deck!

Sip sangria on a patio, and stay up way past your bedtime.

September is a time for being organized and editing blog posts, August is a time to enjoy.

August is also the best time to sign up for Your Best Yoga classes that start September 7th! Click here to register today!

Lululemon Grand Beach Class Recap

, ,

I was so excited to teach the Free Lululemon Yoga Class on Grand Beach July 30th - and the class did not disappoint! The sun was shining and even at 9:00am it was hot! I was thrilled to see so many eager Yogi's unrolling their mats and towels to join in the practice and I really had a blast leading the group. Check out a few of the photo's that were snapped of the class below :) 

Thanks for sharing your energy with me on the beach :) Namaste

Standing Poses that Challenge me the Most

Standing Poses that Challenge me the Most

Let’s face it, even though I am a Yoga teacher and I have many, many hours of both practice and teaching under my belt, there are still PLENTY of poses that challenge me. I am not perfect and neither is my Yoga practice. It is often said that the poses you dislike or avoid are actually the ones you need the most, so as an exercise in “leaning in to the discomfort” I thought I would share with you some of the poses that challenge me the most, starting with the standing postures.
