Feeling Awe: Finding Presence on the Water (Our August Intention)

I love summer! And as I savor my favorite time of year, I hope you give yourself a chance to slow down and savor some sunshine, even if just for a moment.

I also want to share a moment from my sailing trip last week… one that left me completely awestruck. The turquoise water stretched to the horizon, a warm breeze cooled my skin, the catamaran was moored during sunset, and I was surrounded by my favorite people. In that exact moment, I realized I was right where I was supposed to be.

That sense of awe (of truly being present) reminded me why I practice yoga and why I teach it.

Finding Presence

Life is full of busy days and endless to-do lists. But sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is pause and notice the beauty around you. Whether it’s the color of the sky, the sound of laughter, or the feeling of gratitude for a simple moment, these experiences help us reconnect with ourselves.

Journal Prompt

When was the last time you felt truly awestruck or present?

Write about that moment and what it meant to you. Let it remind you that you’re exactly where you need to be.

Every time you show up for yourself (on your mat, in your journal, or by taking a deep breath) you remind yourself that you are enough. I’m so grateful to share these moments with you.

See you soon!

 

P.S. If you’re looking for a little more presence or awe in your life, our On-Demand Membership is always open. You’ll find classes designed to help you quiet your mind, move your body, and notice the little things that make each day meaningful.
