It’s almost the start of a new month and new season. Spring is almost here! Sometimes it can feel like winter is never-ending. The cold nights, the dark mornings, it can be so tempting to wish time away, to skip forward to sunshine.

What if instead of working out to look good, we worked out to feel good in our body and our mind?

The winter season is here, and with it a reminder that it is okay to slow down, rest, and be gentle with yourself. The days are shorter, the mornings and evenings colder, and we might not have the same energy as we do at different times of the year. Which is perfectly okay.

Recently I was thinking about what brings people to yoga class? Why do we make time for this practice each week or several times a week?

I read something a few weeks ago that was a much needed reminder for me, so I’ll share it with you in case you need to hear it as well.

Do you ever think to yourself “I wish I was more motivated to _______.” Fill in the blank. We often think we lack motivation to accomplish the task, attend the workout class, complete the chore.
