Our ocean covers 70% of the planet and provides 80% of the world’s biodiversity. This World Ocean Day, we are reminded of our need to conserve our wonderful marine life for future generations. This means making sustainable choices when eating seafood and reducing our plastic consumption. In honour of World Ocean Day, why not practise your dolphin pose? Swim, swim, swim like a dolphin to strengthen your core muscles and stimulate your vestibular sense! #WorldOceanDay #sustainable #biodiversity #marinelife #conservation #dolphin #yogapose #yoga #kidsyoga #yogaeveryday #yogaforall #childrensyoga #kidsyogaclasses #yogateacher #schools

POSE OF THE WEEK This week we’re going to be walking with dinosaurs! Try to imagine how a dinosaur might have moved. You might be a big, heavy dinosaur, a tiny fast one, or one with wings. This pose is great for imagination and spatial awareness. #dinosaur #poseoftheweek #childreninspiredbyyoga #yoga #childrensyoga #yogaforkids #babyclasses #childrensclasses #yogainschools

Let's 'Find the Joy' this Thursday....

It's an important thing to ask. Yet, sometimes it's easy to forget. This Stress Awareness Month, why not take the time every day to check in with yourself - how are you really feeling? #stressawarenessmonth #mindfulness #relaxation #yoga #yogaforkids #childreninspiredbyyoga

POSE OF THE WEEK: 🌊 SEAHORSE 🌊 This week we are going on an underwater adventure with Seahorse Pose. The pose helps us to: stretch out the lower back muscles strengthen the abdominal obliques (deep tummy muscles) increase awareness of the left and right sides of the body (great for writing development and improving other early fine motor skills) 🧜‍♀️ In this weeks yoga adventure, we meet a mermaid who loses her beautiful jewel in the stormy sea. Who can help her find it? starfish, dolphin or oyster? #yogateacher #kidsyoga #yogainschools #mindfulnesspractice #relaxationtechniques #emotionalintelligence #resilience #lifeskillsforkids #primarype #childrensyoga

I hear this a lot from the moms I meet with. It’s any version of “I’m just a mom” or “I don’t know who I am anymore.” Motherhood can be so consuming that we feel like we’ve lost parts of ourselves.⁠
⁠
Do any of the above statements resonate with you?⁠
⁠
I named my online course “Keeping Mommy in Mind” for this purpose. It’s imperative that we bring the focus back on us. This doesn’t mean we stop focusing on our children and families. This means we place much-needed attention on our own needs so we can be more than “mom.” When we do this we’re able to experience more joy. We’re also able to navigate challenges with greater ease because we’re not running on empty.⁠
