We've arrived at the New Year and the start of 2024, and as we move through the first month, we are graced with brand new energies and a burst of new opportunities and beginnings. January is usually a time when we take stock of where we are, and make plans and choices to help us move to where we want to be. Sometimes that's through changes of attitude or environments, and sometimes we utilize goals and resolutions to help keep us on track.
Last year we chose to approach resolutions with a sense of leniency and personal adaption, making our goals simple and measurable, and giving ourselves space to alter and change things as we changed and grew through the year. We checked in every few months to measure and appreciate our progress and efforts, and maybe were surprised by the results. For many of us this proved very helpful, and we encourage you to keep steady with the process if you've found that it helps you be more personally accountable in a healthy way. This year, we also invite you to challenge yourself in finding expansion and growth in an area of interest or need in your life.
Now we wouldn't be doing this without providing several exciting options and paths that you can take to find that expansion or growth. Whether it's diving deeper into your knowledge and practice of yoga, or jumping into the unknown, finding purpose, and navigating new paths of intrigue and connection.
We’ll be starting the next cohort of our Yoga Teacher Training Certification, and spots are still open for anyone who wants to pursue a path of teaching others, or those who are looking to expand their own connection with their practice. This is a fantastic opportunity for an in depth and immersive training that may leave you changed and more confident in all that you do.
Over the course of 5 months you will learn everything from anatomy and alignment, to philosophy and different styles of practice. With ample opportunity to learn from other teachers, and an all included 3-day Yoga retreat toward the end of the program; we guarantee you will find some form of challenge and growth along your path. You still have a chance to sign up before classes start, so ask yourself if now is the time to try something new and jump in!
If the unknown and the natural seem to be calling to your soul this year, you may find solace and what you seek in Liana Xochitl Soria's Starwalker Shamanic Practitioner Training. This 6-month program goes deep into the core and essence of a Shamanic Practice, addressing everything from shamanic healing, journeying, spiritual decontamination, divination, and so much more! These classes will start Saturday, January 13th and run through June 1st, you can sign up for the program on our website Homeyogatemecula.com or through Liana directly.
We have so many fantastic things coming up in the studio along with these trainings and programs, including a New Year Envisioning with Kristen Rud on the 20th. Whatever you decide to do with your time, we hope that this new year finds us all on paths of progress, and we look forward to seeing you in class this week!
