If you practiced with me this week, you might have noticed a thread running through the morning classes, even if you couldn't quite name it. ✨ Tuesday was the new moon, and the practice was all about release and letting go of what's taking up the space where something new could grow. ✨ Wednesday, we stayed low and built steadiness, waking up the deep core center that holds everything else. ✨ And Thursday morning, we twisted and wrung things out, and closed out with this simple truth: your body carries an intelligence that knows what to do. All we need to do is step out of its way. Release. Steadiness. Trust. Three mornings, one arc of teaching. And honestly, I didn't plan for that, it just happened. It happened in my own sessions prior to the classes and I knew it was right to share. But that's what happens when you keep showing up: the practice starts stringing itself together into something bigger than any single class or posture. Nobody plans that. It just grows on its own, the way anything well-tended does. It's also exactly why I want to remind you about La Solitude before the door closes. A retreat is this same opportunity, lived out over a whole weekend. You release the schedule, the inbox, the everyone-needs-you of daily life. You settle into the steadiness of being cared for instead of doing the caring. And you practice trusting that everything at home will keep turning without you for 48 hours. Because it will. We gather August 7th to 9th, and registration closes next Friday, July 24th. If you've been circling around this decision, this is your week to decide.
And if you're on the fence and unsure, or simply need clarification, just hit reply and ask me anything. Sometimes one honest question is all that's standing between you and the self-care you've been postponing. Big love, |

Earlier this week I sat at the kitchen table with my head in my hands, and ugly-cried over work stress. A few minutes into me losing my sh!t, my twelve-year-old walked into the kitchen, put his hand on my back and started to consciously take deep breaths. He didn't say a word. He just stood there, beside me, breathing. Eventually I followed along and took a few deep breaths too. And, as you might guess, I calmed down. I've been teaching mindfulness and movement since the '90s. And there I...
Hi Reader, If you've been flowing along lately, you'll know that I've been writing a weekly article on Substack where I share something about my practice and how it has anchored and supported me through life's ups and downs. And even though I had every intention of writing one this week, it didn't happen. Old Michelle would be stressing to the max, frantically trying to get a piece together and uploaded. I would have lost sleep over it and likely would have erupted under the pressure of...
Hi Reader If I’ve gleaned anything over the years of practicing Yoga, it’s that every time I get on my mat, I need something different. Some days, my body needs to move or build strength. Some days, I need to slow down, breathe, and settle my mind. And some days, I need to support an injury, low energy, stress, digestive discomfort, or whatever else life has 'happened' in my body, mind and heart. My practice changes because I change. And yours should, too. It's a bold statement, I know. But...
