When I wake up in the morning I throw my hands up in the air like I’m riding a roller coaster and say,”Yeah!” For real, y’all. I know it’s weird, but it puts me in a good mood. Reminds me this life is roller coaster ride and I can choose to live it with curiosity, trust and excitement, or I can slide in the other direction which brings me down. Believe me, I’ve done that too and gotten myself into ruts. It’s no fun.

So with my birthday plans much more mellow this year, I”m still putting my hands up in the air and embracing this stretch of the ride. I’m still here. I’m healthy and even though things are still pretty darn dark there’s a light. I am alive. Now how am I going to live?

Making the commitment to myself for my 45th year to celebrate & appreciate more. Especially the small things. Staying focused on what’s working and committing to ask myself daily: What’s still possible? How can I expand or have a new adventure in these circumstances right now? I want to feel more alive. More connected. How can I do that with what’s right in front of me?

Deciding in my mind and then tossing my hands up high - I’m gonna enjoy this ride seeing how year 45 unfolds. Celebrating the good I know will come even before it arrives and savoring it when it does. Reminding myself the bumps and the scary stretches won’t be forever when they arrive and that the whole point is to enjoy and have fun!

I’m ready. This is my new year!

I always consider my birthday a new year for me. I invite you to do that too. It’s always nice to give ourselves the gift of a fresh start. So I’m sharing a New Year themed class with you this week. One from my live Zoom Saturday mornings. I hope you’ll try it and maybe even join me for a live class too. I’ll put a link below the video for that.

Full body flow with a focus on how yoga began & how to focus your practice. Learn about the first 3 yoga sutras and some common Sanskrit terms.
