Joy

 
 

Dear Yogis,

As we move through the holiday season, we are considering joy as an inner state, not an outer circumstance.

Joy doesn’t rely on the perfect moment, the perfect gift, or even the perfect practice. Instead, it grows quietly within us each time we breathe with intention, move with presence, and choose to meet life with an open heart.

This month, let your practice be a gateway to the simple joys found in a moment of stillness or the peaceful pause between breaths. Joy is already within you, yoga simply helps you remember where to look.

Let’s move through the holiday season this December with extra softness and gratitude.

All my best,
Amy


Pose of the Month

Agnistambhasana: Fire Log Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Agnistambhasana: Fire Log Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!


Sutra of the Month

 
 

Yoga Sutra 1.36 teaches that calmness and clarity arise when we focus the mind on a steady inner point. This is often described as the light within the heart. This sutra reminds us that even when life feels busy or overwhelming, there is always a place of stillness inside us we can return to. By directing our attention to this inner light through breath, meditation, or simply pausing we invite stability and a sense of joy to surface naturally. It’s a gentle reminder that peace isn’t something we have to chase, it already lives within us.


Oil of the Month

Our December OOTM is:

Peppermint Oil

 
 

“Few aromas are as instantly recognizable as Peppermint. Its crisp, minty scent delivers an invigorating rush that awakens the senses and promotes focus when energy starts to dip. Perfect for moments when you need to feel refreshed and alert, this versatile oil also provides a natural cooling sensation when applied topically, ideal for soothing tired muscles or easing tension in the head and neck. Simply dilute with a carrier oil and enjoy its comforting, cooling touch. Inhaling Peppermint can also help settle feelings of nausea and support clear, easy breathing, making it a must-have for everyday wellness.”
-Plant Therapy

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Peppermint essential oil all month at the studio.

Benevolence

 
 

Dear Yogis,

As the autumn chill really starts to settle in, it’s the perfect time to lean into a little extra kindness, both for yourself and everyone around you. This month, we’re embracing benevolence, or the simple, heart-centered practice of doing good, feeling good, and spreading good. Benevolence isn’t always a grand gesture, sometimes even the smalls acts of care ripple out in big ways! Let's lead every day with acts of compassion, whether it be through a warm smile, a helping hand, or a moment of understanding. 

All my best,
Amy


Pose of the Month

Salamba Bhujangasana: Spinx Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Salamba Bhujangasana: Spinx Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!


Sutra of the Month

 
 

Yoga Sutra 3.24 teaches that real strength comes from kindness, compassion, and love. When we lead with a good heart (being friendly, patient, and understanding) we build an inner strength that helps us stay grounded no matter what life throws our way. The more we practice kindness toward others (and ourselves), the more calm and connected we feel. It’s a simple reminder that being a good human is one of the most powerful things we can do.


Oil of the Month

Our Novmeber OOTM is:

Relax Oil

 
 

“After any given day, there is nothing in this world that is better than just relaxing. Even if it was a fun, upbeat day, the chaos can be overwhelming and all you need is some time to unwind. Relax was created to help you take relaxation to the next level by supporting a state of mind that is calming, so you can feel more at ease. It is made up of the pure, undiluted essential oils of Lavender, Marjoram, Mandarin, Patchouli, Bourbon Geranium, and Chamomile Roman. Together these remarkable oils have incredible therapeutic properties that have a calming and soothing aroma.”
-Plant Therapy

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Relax essential oil all month at the studio.

Exploration

 
 

Dear Yogis,

As the air turns crisp and the leaves start to change, it’s the perfect season to slow down and explore what’s happening inside. Yoga Sutra 3.5 reminds us that when we quiet the outside noise and turn inward, a natural clarity begins to shine. Exploration doesn’t have to mean packing a bag. It can be noticing your breath on a cool morning walk, feeling the stretch in a new pose, or just sipping tea and listening to your own thoughts. This fall, let curiosity guide you, and see what inner discoveries unfold.

All my best,
Amy


Pose of the Month

Surya Yantrasana: Compass Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Surya Yantrasana: Compass Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!


Sutra of the Month

 
 

In Yoga Sutra 3.5, Patanjali reminds us that when we quiet the senses and turn inward, a natural light of understanding begins to shine. By stepping back from constant sights, sounds, and distractions, we create space for deeper clarity and insight to surface. It’s like dimming the outside noise so our inner wisdom can speak. This isn’t about shutting the world out, but about giving ourselves moments of stillness where awareness can expand and guidance feels clearer.


Oil of the Month

Our October OOTM is:

Germ Fighter Oil

 
 

“It is so important to keep your body on alert against attacks on your immune system. Germ Fighter was made with you in mind because when you are down you need something to help you recover fast. Germ Fighter is jam-packed with everything you need to fight off outside threats. Germ Fighter is a Plant Therapy favorite and for good reason; it does its job and will continue to support a healthy immune system by helping your body get back to its natural state from the seasonal threats that have you down. Whether it’s keeping your hands clean, or warding off seasonal threats going around the office or school by keeping your body on high alert, Germ Fighter will give you that extra protection you need. The next time an attack on your immune system happens reach for Germ Fighter to turn around to a healthy state faster.”

Reflection

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Reflection isn’t just about looking back, it’s about pausing to notice where we are right now. In yoga, we learn that our thoughts shape how we feel and how we move through the world. By taking a moment to reflect, we can catch patterns that don’t serve us and gently shift toward choices that bring more peace and balance.

On the mat, reflection might look like noticing how your body responds to a pose and choosing a variation that feels supportive. Off the mat, it could mean taking a breath before reacting, or recognizing something you’re grateful for at the end of the day.

This month, see if you can create small moments of reflection. It’s a simple practice that helps turn awareness into growth, one pause at a time.

All my best,
Amy


Pose of the Month

Mandukasana: Frog Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Mandukasana: Frog Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!


Sutra of the Month

 
 

In Yoga Sutra 2.33, Patanjali offers us a simple but powerful tool: when troubled by negative thoughts, practice cultivating their opposite. Instead of getting stuck in worry, anger, or self-doubt, we can pause and ask, "what would the opposite feel like?" For example, meeting frustration with patience, or countering fear with gratitude. This doesn’t mean ignoring hard feelings, but gently shifting our focus toward thoughts that bring more balance and peace. Reflection becomes a practice of noticing where the mind goes and choosing a more supportive direction.


Oil of the Month

Our September OOTM is:

Immune Aid Oil

Challenges

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Patanjali reminds us that obstacles are part of the journey. In Yoga Sutra 1.30, he names nine obstacles that disrupt our path, things like illness, doubt, lack of motivation, and restlessness. Sound familiar? These are not failures or signs we’re doing something wrong, they’re part of being human. These difficulties can leave us feeling unsteady or disconnected, as described in Sutra 1.31, which speaks to suffering, depression, unsteadiness in the body, and irregular breathing.

Some days these obstacles make your body feel heavy, your mind distracted, or your heart unsure. But yoga teaches us to stay. To notice. To soften. The practice isn’t about avoiding challenges, it’s about how we meet them.

This month, we invite you to face those obstacles with curiosity and commitment through our 2nd Annual Bingo Challenge! It’s designed to encourage you to try new things, stay consistent, and have a little fun along the way. Each square is a small step toward deepening your practice, both on and off the mat.

All my best,
Amy


Pose of the Month

Astavakrasana: Eight Angle Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Astavakrasana: Eight Angle Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!


Sutra of the Month

 
 

In the Yoga Sutras, Patanjali doesn’t pretend that the path is easy. In fact, in Sutra 1.30, he names the very real struggles we’re likely to face; things like illness, doubt, fatigue, distraction, or even slipping back into old habits. These aren’t just physical blocks; they’re inner turbulence that can cloud our clarity and weaken our resolve. Then in 1.31, he speaks to how these obstacles show up in our lived experience: through mental disturbance, physical tension, emotional heaviness, and unsteady breath. When we notice these signs, it’s not a failure, it’s information. A signal to pause, take care, and reconnect with what anchors us. These sutras don’t offer a quick fix, but they do offer perspective, that obstacles are part of the path, and that awareness is the beginning of real transformation.


Oil of the Month

Our August OOTM is:

Lemon Oil

 
 

“When life gives us lemons, we make Lemon Essential Oil. This powerfully zesty, fresh citrus aroma is a wonderful selection to help refresh the smell of an unpleasantly stale room. When diffusing, it can also help energize and uplift emotions. If you’re experiencing a common cold or flu, Lemon can help support a healthy immune system. Its invigorating scent is a great addition to DIY cleaners, leaving your home feeling bright and clean.”

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Lemon essential oil all month at the studio.

Listening

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Yoga isn’t just about moving through postures, it’s also about how we move through the world. In Sutra 2.36, Patanjali introduces Satya, the practice of truthfulness. While we often think of truth as something we speak, Satya also calls us to listen, to ourselves and to others, with honesty and presence.

Listening deeply means we’re not simply waiting for our turn to talk; we’re holding space for another’s truth. When we truly listen, we show up with integrity, curiosity, and care. This kind of attention reflects a commitment to truth, not just in words, but in action and intention.

This month, consider how you listen. Can you soften your responses, quiet your inner dialogue, and hear what’s being shared beneath the surface? Listening, like yoga, is a powerful practice.

All my best,
Amy


Pose of the Month

Paschimottanasana: Seated Forward Fold Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Paschimottanasana: Seated Forward Fold Pose.

Sutra of the Month

 
 

This sutra teaches that when we live and speak with unwavering truthfulness, our words and actions gain power and clarity. Satya, or truthfulness, isn't just about being honest, it’s about aligning what we say, do, and believe. When we speak from a place of deep integrity, our words carry weight and our efforts bear fruit. Practicing Satya requires self-awareness, compassion, and the courage to be clear and kind, even when it’s uncomfortable.


Oil of the Month

Our July OOTM is:

Pink Grapefruit Oil

 
 

“Need a morning boost? Organic Pink Grapefruit Essential Oil to the rescue! This sweet, fresh, and juicy aroma lightens and sweetens up any blend or DIY project. The sparkle that Organic Pink Grapefruit gives can help uplift emotions caused by mental fatigue and moodiness. When diluted appropriately, this refreshing essential oil can help purify congested, oily, and blemish-prone skin. When added to a carrier oil or cream, it can act as a natural toner.”
