This year things were going to
be different. You were finally going to
commit to that new gym program. Take your vitamins. Eat healthier. Drink
more water. Yep, this year was going to be different.
March rolls
in, and with it the realization that your New Year's resolution has
departed to the la - la land to live happily ever after with the rest
of your good intentions. You realize that all your problems are the same as the last year's, the holiday muffin - top is still
intact, and now you have this post - Canadian winter pasty skin to deal
with ( want glowing skin? read on!)
What went wrong?
Many of us deeply desire positive shifts in
our lives. Yet very few actually achieve lasting positive change
despite of the multitude of life - coaching programs and self - help
information so widely available. Many of us struggle with the same
problem - be it finances, relationships, weight or health - year after
year. Many feel overwhelmed and consumed by the problem at hand so
much so that we consider it to be an inevitable part of our lives.
Is there a way out?
I believe the answer is in changing the attitude - the lens through which we look at the world.
The
most powerful first step you can take in Resolution Evolution is to
commit to positive changes you want to see. Your failure to commit full - heartedly
to your goals makes every obstacle on the path seem bigger than it
really is.
Stop telling yourself all those stories why you can't be healthier, happier or more alive. Stop doubting yourself. Stop being afraid.
Create unstoppable momentum for positive change in your life.
Find the tools and techniques that make the difference now.

Ready
to grow into a better posture (yep, you can grow into it!), get more flexible or
loose that nagging shoulder ache or hip tightness?
iMOVE: yoga and conscious movement
Organic
Breath and Essential Core workshops are on March 10th. I can talk about
breath and core until I am blue in the face - yes, it fascinates me
that much. I hope, for the sake of your health, you get fascinated with
your breath and core just as much as I am.
Brenda, one of my private
clients, came to me with chronic heartburn. As usual, I asked her to
access her discomfort level in the beginning of the class, and it was between 7
and 8. We worked on changing her breathing pattern and
releasing her diaphragm. By the end of the class her pain level was
only at about 3. Magic!
Spring Yoga Registration is in full swing and early bird prices are good till
International Women's Day - March 8th. Spring session starts on
Saturday, March 24th.
Psssst... let you in on a secret - there are
two Yummy Summer Yoga Camps in the works - a two - morning venture into
the goodness of yoga, conscious movement, chanting and meditation. Want a spot? Let me know!
iLIVE: Ayurveda, the star of the show:
March 28th, 6:30 to 8:30 PM
We are talking about food
sensitivities - chronic pain, stress and mood disorders link, and what
you can do about it. Now the nasty thing about food
sensitivities is once you've developed one, the next one is waiting
right around the corner. So how do you deal with that? Join our
conversation on FB and come to the workshop to find out. I am
interviewing Kelly Stubbert for March 15th blog post on food
sensitivities; if you have a story to share, please drop me a line - I
would love to hear from you!
May 5th at Wapity Nordic Lodge
All
those creams, potions and lotions not doing their job? Look beyond the
mirror to discover your radiant beauty: find stillness in meditation,
strength in the yoga practice, and ancient wisdom of Ayurveda to heal,
nurture and repair your body. Add to that a walking meditation (sweet
smell of spring, new flowers and maybe a few raindrops - YUM!), chanting
and delicious lunch - I can't wait! How about you?
And finally,
last but not least, the dates for Satori's second annual Perfect
Health Retreat in Jasper National Park are confirmed, the Overlander Mountain Lodge has been
booked and Chef Moz is busy inventing and testing our delicious
Ayurvedic menu. I have expanded the program to include a half - day
venture into the magic of Rocky Mountain Wilderness and a few other
surprises. Registration starts soon!
It's an honor to be a part of your journey as you work toward achieving the extraordinary life you want and deserve. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you.
See you in the class and on the mat.
With lots of love,
Julia
