Hello Beautiful Humans!
As we spring towards summer, I have so much to share with you. The quiet introspection and seed planting of winter is blossoming into summer activity. I hope you will share this wonderful time of year with me.
If you live in South Florida, you know it already feels like summer ☀️☀️☀️☀️ Did you also know you can adapt your yoga practice to help your body deal with hot temperatures? Twists are great during summer months as they stimulate the kidneys, which need support as our adrenals work overtime in the heat. Also, restorative, supported back bends are cooling and soothing for the nervous system.
So please save the date! Saturday, July 13 at 7pm join me for Summer Slowdown ~ Yoga + Meditation at the Standard Spa details coming soon.
In the meantime, see below for new classes and upcoming events.
Join me Tuesdays & Thursdays at 9am for Iyengar Yoga at the Standard Spa in Miami Beach- parking is only $5 when you come for yoga!
If you book a spa treatment, you can stay and enjoy the indoor spa and relax poolside for the day. If you've never been, you are in for a treat! Every year I celebrate my birthday there with a massage ~ it's one of my absolute favorite places on Earth and I am so honored to be back there teaching Iyengar Yoga 💕. Check out the view from the yoga room 👇 ✨
Please join me for upside down fun at Yoga 1 in Hollywood 👇 This spectacular studio is worth a visit. Beautiful space, tons of props, friendly staff. I hope you can join me next month! Click the flyer or button below to register.
Thank you to everyone who already donated!! There is still time to help, see flyer for list of requested items. I am collecting until May 31.
Or click on the button below to order from Amazon ~ so easy! Practice Karma Yoga ~ the yoga of service. Helping others is the best way to boost your own happiness ✨
Speaking of doing good, one of my favorite Miami organizations is Urban Oasis Project. Did you know farmers markets are year round in our city of magic? Check out the summer markets and sample tropical fruits, take a yoga class under the trees, and discover treasures by local artisans. Shopping local keeps our community healthy, so please check them out!
Speaking of my favorite things, I have to share my new favorite shoes with you. After years of wearing Birkenstock sandals and cushioned sneakers, I've had a revelation. Barefoot style shoes are the way to go! Genuine comfort comes from letting your feet do what's natural - bending, flexing, moving, feeling. Xero Shoes let them do that. On the recommendation of my functional movement therapist, I made the switch and it has been life-changing, and my knee pain is gone. Click below to check them out. So good, I had to share ✨
One last thing... Did you catch the Flower Moon last Thursday, May 23rd? I was fortunate enough to see the moon rise over our magic city ✨✨✨👇 This full moon accentuates the feelings of expansion and optimism and the desire for new experiences and adventures. Keep practicing and I will see you on the mat!
Namaste & much love,
Di
