Hi Dear Yogins.

Given that Thanksgiving is tomorrow, I want to thank you all for continued support of my classes and encouragement to keep going during turbulent times. I am so grateful the yoga industry is on the mend and that I have a chance to connect with my students once again, both face-to-face in the studio and in our virtual restorative class on Wednesday night.

The practice of gratitude is not only our Thanksgiving tradition, but is a tool in the 2nd limb of yoga to access Santosha (sanskrit for contentment). You will have a chance to practice Santosha with me tonight at our Virtual Wednesday night Restorative class. And there is still time to sign up.

If you frequent Yoga by Degrees and haven't checked out my Restorative/Meditation class on Fridays at 5:30pm in Downers Grove, please do! This is a half and half format: Restorative yoga and the last half hour is devoted to yoga nidra meditation. Make a date with your honey or a good friend and start off your weekend in a positive way. There is still plenty of time to catch dinner and a movie afterwards!

Finally, I have rescheduled a workshop on zoom in December. Save the date!

Join me for the Winter Solstice version of "Renew, Rest, Manifest" Sunday, December 17th at 5pm for 2 hours of 'peace on earth'.

It will have all of the goodies: restorative, breathwork, meditation, peace, pause, mudra, mantra, sound healing and more. Here is a link to sign up:

Wishing you all a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving!

Love and Light,

Kristin
