Throwback to July ๐Ÿ”ฅ It wasnโ€™t just hot outsid Throwback to July ๐Ÿ”ฅ
It wasnโ€™t just hot outside, it was hot in the studio too.

Meno, Jackie, and Angie earned that glow after Angieโ€™s fiery hot Santosha flow.

Three amazing teachers/practitioners sharing sweat, smiles, and the post-practice bliss we all know and love.

Grateful for these incredible humans and the energy they bring to our Santosha community.

Grounded in truth or stretching into story? The m Grounded in truth or stretching into story?

The mind can quickly build a narrative that is completely false.

There is a tendency for the mind to fill in the gaps, project meaning, and turn moments into stories, even when they are not based in truth.

Right knowledge arises through three means: direct perception, inference, and reliable testimony.

You may not know every yoga posture by heart, but when a skilled teacher explains it with clarity and lineage, you trust the teaching.

What if you paused to ask, is it true?
And noticed the moments when the mind clouds perception, when stories take over before truth has even had a chance to land.

Kirstinโ€™s heart share is our newest blog โ™ฅ๏ธ Kirstinโ€™s heart share is our newest blog โ™ฅ๏ธ
This is how it begins:

โ€˜Friends. You are welcome here and you belong here.

If you donโ€™t always feel like you belong, yet a tiny part of you remains open to the idea that it may not be the whole truth โ€“ these words might change your life.

And although this is hardly the whole story for me, itโ€™s as good a place as any to begin.

I remember distinctly the moment these words landed, unexpectedly, channeled by a wise and beautiful stranger whoโ€™d Iโ€™d later call one of my great teachers as I settled into her class. And I broke. I couldnโ€™t have anticipated the degree to which I would be impacted by such simple language. But the potency of her words penetrated me, and my cracks began to show. The foundation I had built and lived upon had started to shift and as it did, I too, began to come apart.

A series of less than gentle awakenings delivered me to the truth of my reality: that the world in which I felt alone, unwelcome and an outsider to โ€“ had been in large part my own creation.โ€™ ~ @kirstindoesyoga 

Read the full piece through the link in our bio.

If you havenโ€™t met Kirstin or practiced with her yet โ€“ she is an exceptional human. Heart-led. Powerful. Courageous. Devoted to the practice and devoted to life. She listens, really listens. She keeps learning, keeps exploring, and she shares from a place that is honest and brave. She is willing to swim into the depths.

We are incredibly lucky that she joined Yoga Santosha after completing her teacher training with us in 2023, and is now one of our beloved teachers. 

Thank you, Kirstin, for sharing your heart, your prose and for reminding us that we all belong.

Come meet Kirstin on your mat:

Thursdays 9:30 a.m. Core Flow (Mission)
Fridays 6:00 p.m. Rhythm + Flow (Mission)
Saturdays 12:00 p.m. Vinyasa Flow (Kensington)

An hour returned today. Daylight savings happened An hour returned today. Daylight savings happened and time stretched for a moment. 

A friend asked, what if we did that on purpose? What if every week we set aside an hour that was not already spoken for before it began.

Not an hour to catch up or get ahead. An hour with room to breathe. To feel supported enough to soften, to say yes and open wide. 

What would that hour hold? What would you choose if time was not already full.

Maybe the real gift is not the extra hour at all. Maybe the gift is the reminder that we can choose to make one.

Massage at Mission You know that feeling when yo Massage at Mission 

You know that feeling when you walk into the studioโ€™s and the energy slows you down the second you arrive? The same sense of calm and care lives in our massage space at the Mission Studio.

Our registered massage therapists are genuinely incredible.

Whether youโ€™ve been training hard, sitting too long, or just feeling stretched thin, theyโ€™ll meet you where you are.

From deep tissue to Swedish, therapeutic, and dynamic cupping, thereโ€™s a treatment that fits what you need.

Taking care of yourself comes in many forms. Sometimes itโ€™s rolling out your mat, sometimes itโ€™s booking a massage, sometimes itโ€™s both.

And if you have benefits, gentle reminder. Time to use them.
