Fearless, Balanced, Awake, Dreaming. The Most Loved Moments of the Week in NJ, Right Here. Right Now. With Love.

Face your fears.

For day 18 we are going to face our fears and begin to explore arm balances with #CrowPose or #Bakasana . 👉🏼Come into a yogi squat pose with feet mat distance apart. Place palms on mat in front of you shoulder distance apart and spead fingers—PRESS through palms and knuckles firmly. Begin to press your shins against the back of upper arms, knees as close to armpits as you can. Lift onto toes, round back and fire up those core muscles as you begin to rock forward. Look at floor slightly in front of you and lean forward, drawing feet towards buttocks. Hold this pose for 20-30 seconds. If you are having trouble finding the arm balance, lift one leg up at a time, stack blocks or couch cushions in front of you if you are afraid of falling forward. 👉🏼HAVE FUN—arm balances are a chance to tap into a strength deep in our core and be a child again! ⠀ .⠀ Members who complete 30 classes & participate in IG challenge will be entered to win a brand new LIFEFORME yoga mat valued at over $160, an @omgoddess.clothing shirt, a $25 gift card to @staygoldcafehowell ⠀ .⠀ TAG #ypkyogacamp & @yogapeacekula

Feel the balance.

“In an asana, the mind has to reach inside the body to find a quiet space until a point comes where perfect balance is felt.” ~ Geeta Iyengar ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Thursday’s Classes: ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ 9:30 am ROOTS (Beginner) ~ Olivia 11:00 am FLOW (Women’s Only) ~ Denise 6:15 pm FLOW (Intermediate) ~ Alexis 7:30 pm AERIAL ROOTS* (Beginner) ~ Mari Lou *Aerial requires pre-registration as space is limited & fills ups quickly. 📷 @liv.plant.powered

TRUST.

Stepping out of my comfort zone today ⭐️Friends: I was in a rut the last month in a way I haven’t experienced in years😮but I got a call from an angel of sorts who told me like it is and gave me permission to let go of things that are weighing me down. I want to give you permission too. Let me know in the comments what’s weighing you down or holding you back, sometimes the first step to change is just giving it voice. My next step is TRUST, are you there too? I’m going to trust that when I let go the universe will rearrange itself to hold me 💫 📷 @barbarytoast #onehandedhandstand #theuniversehasyourback #yogalife #balance

I think we’re alone now…

Sure, I could be deep tonight. But reality is, this headstand variation just makes me want to sing… Running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another hands Trying to get away into the night and then you put your arms around me And we tumble to the ground and then you say I think we're alone now… #tiffany #loveyourself #childrenbehave #lornajaneactive #lornajane #asburypark #asburyhotel #vibewelltribe #vibewell #njyogacollective #practicelocalnj @amieretzlaff photography ❤️ for the VibeWell Yoga FESTIVAL!!

Manifest a dream.

About last night… I manifested a dream into reality and launched my first official event as @cheristribe! We had an amazing night doing SUP yoga with @aqua.vida while raising money for @dancers.that.inspire. We spread the word about #saferbeauty and shared our passion for @beautycounter products while supporting other women in business. A very special thank you to @finneous.bean, @bemixed & @hungryhippieeats for joining us. And a HUGE thank you to my friends for coming out to support all of us! I love my tribe! #cheristribe #women #friends #workingmom #womenempowerment #womensupportingwomen #wednesdaywisdom #beautycounter #beauty #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #njyogacollective
