MICHELLE IS BACK 💫

And she’s bringing her expertise in Orthopedic Yoga Therapy to Sanctuary for a brand-new workshop focused on helping the body shift out of the stress response. 😵‍💫

Breath. Posture. Nervous system. Simple techniques you can actually use. ✨

Practicing non-attachment.

Someone stole the $15 plastic planter.

Left the plant.

I appreciate the restraint. 😂😉

New class alert!!
Mondays at 5:30 PM, Mary Walek will be teaching Vinyasa + Yin - a beautiful blend of mindful movement followed by the grounding, longer-held shapes of Yin.

Mary brings years of experience as a yoga teacher, Reiki Master, and member of the Yoga Teacher Training faculty at Universal Power Yoga - where I completed my additional 300-hour training. I’ve known and admired her for years and am so honored to have a teacher with her depth of knowledge, warmth, and experience joining the Sanctuary schedule.

And you’ll be seeing more of Mary this fall…🍂

✨ Reiki I Training - September 25 & 26
🍁 Autumn Grounding - October 2
A beloved seasonal workshop designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and settle into the rhythm of fall.

All summer, there have been crickets in the studio.

At first, they annoyed me… especially during restorative classes or Nourish Sessions.

But somewhere along the way, I started to appreciate their rhythm. Their steadiness. Their constant little presence.

Today, on Labor Day, I was in the studio talking with someone who I believe will become an important part of Sanctuary’s future.

One cricket came out. I picked it up and carried it outside.

A little later, another appeared. Same thing.

It felt strangely perfect.

The symbolic end of summer.
A season closing.
Something new beginning.

Goodbye, summer crickets. 🤎

Confession.
When I opened Sanctuary, I said I didn’t want something like tarot in the space.

Not because I had a problem with tarot… I think I just had some preconceived ideas about what it was. Maybe a little too “New Age,” a little too “crystal ball”.

But the more I’ve learned, the more I’ve come to appreciate the depth behind it.

Archetypes. Symbolism. Shadow work. Reflection. A way of noticing what resonates, what makes us uncomfortable, and sometimes, what we already know but haven’t quite been listening to. 🌘

Psychology might call some of that projection or meaning-making.

We might also call some of it intuition.

And maybe that’s what I’ve come to appreciate most about tarot… not that it gives us the answers, but that it can give us another way to explore ourselves. 💫

This is why we practice.

Not for the perfect pose… for real life.

To squat. Reach. Bend. Balance. Get down on the ground and back up again. To keep doing the things we love as we age.

I wasn’t practicing yoga here. I was painting. But this is yoga doing its job.

Foundations of Yoga Series Tuesdays in September…

We’ll explore how the shapes we practice on the mat support the way we move through life.

Yoga for living well.
