I was browsing through Canva for an inspiring social media template and I came across one with the words “love and feel yourself”.

It was just the inspiration I was looking for and a way for me to share what’s alive for me these days.

Recently, I have not been “feeling myself” in terms of feeling “my best self” in body and mind.

Some of you will know that I was diagnosed with Long Covid in 2021 and that I have some ongoing, though most often manageable, symptoms. That has changed recently. This month I have what I can only describe as a relapse of my Long Covid symptoms.

I am fatigued, breathless and not able to do much in the way of my work so I’ve been taking it easy.

Throughout this interesting health journey, I have remained hopeful that I will be able to get back to feeling the way I did before I got sick. I remain convinced that will pass … just not on my own schedule it would seem!

In the meantime, I am making loving adjustments to my lifestyle with lots of humility and self-compassion. I’m taking time to feel, explore, acknowledge, and accept myself as I currently am.

It is with this in mind that I am making the loving decision to postpone the start of fall yoga classes until the third week of September. And, when I resume teaching I will do so slowly, offering one online hatha yoga class on Tuesdays at 5:30 pm. After four weeks I will reassess my schedule.

I am continuing to offer Align & Shine from 6:00-6:30 am on weekday mornings and I invite you to join me! If you have 20 minutes, come for some inspiration, yoga and movement. If you have time for more, stay for 5 minutes of breath work and 5 minutes of meditation. You will be on your way feeling calm and alert by 6:30 am!

The asana and movement portion of the class focuses on getting the whole body moving in a gentle and accessible way.

These classes are free or you can pay whatever you want.

If early mornings are not your thing and you want to keep moving with me at a more convenient time for you, I have a library of livestream class recordings with new recordings added each week. Access my growing library for $25 per month. Cancel any time you wish. You can find out more about morning classes and livestream recordings here:

One glitch with the Membership page is that you will need to click on the "Online Store" tab to see the library.

Please reach out to me if you have any questions or would like to say hi and let me know how you are doing.

Thank you for sharing your love of yoga with me.

Om Shanti,

Nora
