New Happy New Year, welcom
e to 2012! The beginning of the year always seems to burst with expectation — a fresh slate, newness, change — yet so often that fresh anticipation for the year ahead loses its luster around January 28th, and we fall into the same ruts that we had hoped to change. So, MoveYoga has chosen to hold off wishing you a Happy New Year until just about the time when the “freshness” of a new year begins to show its blemishes, and old patterns return. (It also could be that we suffer from “blogging procrastination”, but we’ll let you be the judge of that!)
Whichever the case, what if you resolved to shift your perspective this year? Rather than clinging to the expectations of change, pursue a shift in perspective. Maybe bring more creativity to your pursuits, even if it’s the mundane task of dishwashing or brushing teeth. Adopt a practice — acceptance perhaps — even if it means smiling when the driver next to you chooses that particular moment to explode in rage! Simple shifts in perspective carry long term, real change. Here at MoveYoga, we’re expanding, exploring and shifting! Check out some of the new classes and workshops we’re offering. We’re looking forward to keepin’ it fresh … all year long!

The leaves are falling and the days of summer are long gone! As the days grow shorter and cooler, and we all settle into a winter rhythm — perhaps more scheduled and demanding than the ‘lazy daze’ of summer — remember to bring a little natural warmth and light into each day by doing something you enjoy. Exercise, laughter, puddle splashing, 
breath work, cooking, reading, dancing, catching a quick dose of Vitamin D between rain showers, creating art, spending time with friends, listening to music, playing music, singing … and million more options abound … whatever brings you warmth and light, carve out the time in your Fall schedule to make it happen! MoveYoga is zipping around to different schools all over Portland, bringing yoga to kids of all ages. Check out our Fall schedule, and if you’d like to bring a kids yoga class to your community, please let us know … we’d love to meet you!
