zumba & getting out of your comfort zone

One of the items on my May Intentions list is to try out a Zumba class. I've been meaning to do this for a while now, and since there is a Zumba class at the new yoga studio where I'm teaching, I figured NOW is the time!
Once I wrote that intention down on paper, I knew I'd make it happen.

(WRITE DOWN YOUR INTENTIONS & GOALS & YOU'RE MORE LIKELY TO DO THEM!)

Zumba was loads of fun and immediately sent me back to my floor aerobics teaching days...

with a Latin dancing twist! So glad I went!

I believe it is so important to make a conscious effort to grow and learn and evolve.
One way to do this is to step out of your comfort zone and try new things!

What is it that you've been meaning to do for a while now?

What is something you'd like to learn more about?

What is something you'd like to learn how to do?

NOW is the time to act. No excuses...just action. It's that simple.

It can be something as small as going to a zumba class. No room for self-judgement...

just your inner guide. Shhhh.....listen....she IS there!

Once you know what you want to do,

BE WILLING.

WRITE YOUR INTENTION DOWN.

THEN, DO IT!

Peace, Love, Lipstick, & Namaste'

setting an intention

Just a little reminder about how important it is to set an intention before you begin your yoga practice. (For all of you along for the Sun Salutation and Meditation Challege, don't forget to set an intention.) Here is a yogathought for today about setting intentions:

"Setting an intention for each yoga session increases mental focus and creates a vibrant practice. Intentions can be general or specific, abstract or concrete. Some examples, 'My intention today is to make peace with myself (or a specific other) both in my pracctice and throughout this day,' or 'Let me complete one hour of yoga practice.' You might think of them as little prayers sprinked over your practice time." --Julie Rappaport

Namaste'
