Our Fall Yoga Retreat October 11th - 13th at Fort Worden State Park in Port Townsend has been sold out for months but two rooms have just opened up. If you are interested in joining us, please go here for all of the details, and then email me to sign up.

Rest Fest will take place in North Bend Sunday September 8th, 10 - 4:30 at the Rainbow Lodge Retreat Center. My friend Anna Sullivan (who I collaborated with on a yoga and writing workshop a few months ago) is offering a day of restful offerings and I will be leading a yoga practice and sound meditation there. There are a few more spots left, you can find all the details and sign up here.

If you prefer to practice in the comfort of your own home, I teach online, with some awesome teachers at Your Heart Life Online Yoga and Meditation Studio. There are many live and recorded offerings here to inspire your practice. For more information and to view the online schedule please go to www.yourheartlife.com.

Fall is knocking on our door. Can you feel it? I am noticing more "monkey mind" coming in (especially in the middle of the night). I love fall, but it's hard to let summer go. Staying with our practice of yoga will help with the turbulence that often comes during seasonal transitions. For pranayama practice I recommend alternate nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhana). I find it to be very grounding and balancing. Cat Cow is a lovely flow for this time of year. I practice it every day. It helps keep the spine flexible and gives our internal organs a massage. I hope you have a relaxing and fun Labor Day Weekend. Let's keep calm and carry on.

With love and gratitude, Inga
