I am learning to wear this skin with pride; to make a home within this flesh. which harbours no insecurity - building a house where no disdain is welcome.... And, when hate comes knocking, I will politely tell it that no longer is there a spare chamber, within my heart for it to reside, for it has had its time and love has since moved in. - Becca Lee Pose Shown, Downward dog variation, Adho Mukha Shvanasana Household props used: * Wall Benefits: * Stretches entire back of the body * Calms the mind * Stimulates blood circulation * Great counterpose to do in between folds or back bends

Rose hips are the gorgeous, bright red fruit of the rose plant. They appear after the blooms have dropped, usually in the fall and early winter Rose hips are a great source of natural Vitamin C and flavonoids. The high Vitamin C content reduces inflammation in the body, supports the immune system and helps to counter the effects of stress Rose hips also have antioxidant properties that help support the heart and cardiovascular system. They enhance the integrity of the vas...cular system, and can be used as a daily tonic to improve heart health Another neat fact about rose hips is that they contain a high amount of pectin. Pectin is beneficial to the body in that it can draw out environmental toxins, radioactive compounds, and heavy metals. This makes rose hips a great choice to use as a gentle detoxifier! We use rose hips in our Allergy tea and our Cold and Flu care tea

Anahata Is back in stock!!! Anahata means heart chakra, the 4th energy center in the body, and centers around love.

Linden helps heal the spiritual and emotional heart, while lemon balm and chamomile relieve stress and calm the body and mind. Rose soothes the heart and nurtures the emotional body.... Anahata is a feel good, heart soothing, heart opening blend of herbs that will surely lift your mood, calm anxious feelings and ease the mind.

They asked her, What does letting go mean? She answered,... Letting go does not mean erasing a memory or ignoring the past. It is when you are no longer reacting to things that used to make you feel tense and releasing the energy attached to certain thoughts. It takes self- awareness, intentional action, practice and time. Letting go is the act of getting to know yourself so deeply that all delusions fall away. - Yung Pueblo | presence Pose Shown, Side Plank, Vasisthasana ( swipe right to see the many different side plank variations) If you’ve taken @prettyin1nk_yogi class you’ll know how much she loves variations, one pose can be done so many different ways.
