be JOY now

The journey begins when the door to the heart opens.  This blog sometimes vlog is a sharing of the practical application of a yogic lifestyle.  Take of it what you may.  Be entertained, share in the joy, dislike it if you want, but understand we are all one and this is my attempt to share my oneness.  Every journey is different and I know that the shape of my journey has been molded by stories of teachers.  I end my yoga classes by saying "honoring the hearts and wisdom of our many many teachers."  To me everyone is a teacher.  So there is no ego when I say I love to teach, to story tell, to share in my journey.  It just is.  By writing, I feel as though I am fulfilling part of my purpose.  The call to write whispers to me every day whether I ignore it or not.  I've been journaling and writing since I was 12 years old and I'm 1008 years old now ;)

How to be JOY now? 

Be lucky enough to open your eyes in the morning and remember to be grateful.

Become aware of your breath.  The in breath and the out breath.

Become aware.  Emphasis on the period.

Walk and observe nature.

Look into the eyes of someone you love.

Look into the eyes of someone.

Notice your heart beat.

Send love to a friend.

Listen deeply to a song.

Wash dishes with full attention on the task.

Cook with love, even if it's just a bowl of cereal.

Remember that this is the only moment.

What Our Clients Are Saying

JOY Retreats are life changing, affordable, and the best things I've ever done to connect with myself and make some of the greatest friendships.  Highly Recommended! L.C.

From the moment I walked up the stairs I knew this was home.  I had never done yoga before but felt comfortable right away.  L.S.

The teachers are amazing.  I have been doing yoga for 20 years and these teachers really go above and beyond.  M.P.

I look forward to going to JOY each and every class.  It is beautiful and I love that the sauna is included in the membership.  A.T.

Yoga teacher training is all I have to say.  It is everything.  I can't wait to do more workshops and trainings with Jennifer.  K.S.
