Summertime yoga schedule

July is here, summer is here! It feels so nice to be back in my yoga-mode and having my regular online sessions again. Since I didn’t have good internet connection while I was in Japan, we didn’t get to have any online sessions in May. So now that I’m back, I need to get right back into it…..! And also catch up on the lessons we have missed! Who’s with me!? In July I am planning two sessions, July 11th and July 25th. (both would be on Sunday at 9:30am /16:30pm Japan). Now that the weather is getting nice and summery, I am sure I would be holding some outdoor sessions.

Taking some time to focus…

Good Self-care time during the quarantine is much needed. It’s been already a while since my last post and look at this….it’s already May! And mid May that is. Oh boy oh boy. It was nice that I got to hold my last yoga session end of April. Some last-minute decision to fly to Japan to see my parents actually happened and yes, we were in a 2-week quarantine at home and we were finally able to go outside 3 days ago!

Staying Mindful

Bringing in positive mindset onto the mat. Let’s always try and stay positive and happy — that’s easier said than done in these difficult times at the moment, right? But what we need to focus on is truly to stay grateful for what we got at the moment and try to look forward at some of the positive things in life.

My yogi life meets Prenatal yoga

yoga has been part of my life since I was 20.

And now, I turned 38 (yup……this is 38!) and I am so proud and feeling privileged that I have been keeping my dedication to yoga for all these year. Moving around 3 different countries — USA, Japan, then Germany — embraced yoga in my hometown in Redondo Beach, California, and kept my practice going in Japan while I struggled with some culture shock.

more yoga anyone?

Finding time for oneself is so important. It is already end of October, and I keep saying this but this year 2020 seems like it’s just went by in a flash. I am sure that most people won’t miss this year too much looking back at how this year has gone by. Crazy pandemic crisis hit us hard in the beginning of the year not knowing how long it would last and how we could really cope with it.

Time to cozy up for yoga

Have you already gotten your coats and winter jackets out? How about some winter gloves and scarves?? I’ve got my beanies and scarves ready to go. It sure is getting a bit chilly now : it sure smells like fall! Nice rise breeze in the morning and even in the sun, you can tell it’s not the “summer sunshine” anymore.
