On Remembrance Day in Canada, we pause to pay tribute to our veterans, the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country with honour and selflessness. Their sacrifices and commitment in defending our freedoms and values have shaped the nation and our place in the world.

We remember those who fought, those who fell, and those who returned home forever changed. We honour their courage, their dedication, and their unwavering sense of duty. Each poppy worn, each moment of silence observed, and each story shared is a testament to their legacy - a legacy of resilience, bravery, and a profound love for Canada.

We owe our veterans a debt of gratitude that can never fully be repaid. On this day, let us renew our commitment to support them and their families. Let us ensure that their sacrifices are never forgotten and that their stories continue to be told. They have given us the greatest gift—peace and freedom—and for that, we are eternally grateful.

Lest we forget.

Hello CommUNITY!

I hope you're all having a great day and finding some time for some self-care.

In today's post, let's dive into the wonderful world of mobility, and how it can greatly benefit our health and wellness journeys.

Mobility exercises are not just for professional athletes or bodybuilders—they are beneficial for everyone, especially those who practice yoga. They can help improve your flexibility, enhance your overall movement patterns, and prevent injuries.

Why is mobility important? By focusing on mobility exercises, we can increase our range of motion, activate dormant muscles, improve posture, and even relieve tension in our bodies. Incorporating these exercises into our daily routine will allow us to move with ease and experience a sense of freedom both on and off the yoga mat.

This wonderful Joint Freeing practice with Nancy is a fabulous way to incorporate a short mobility routine into your daily life!

Wishing you all well!

Hello CommUNITY!

Hello Fantastic CommUNITY!

Yoga Nidra, also known as "yogic sleep," is a deeply immersive meditation technique that promotes relaxation by taking you into a state of consciousness between wakefulness and sleep. It's like giving your body and mind a much-needed rejuvenation session!

I personally find Yoga Nidra to be an incredibly calming and inspiring practice that helps me release tension and reconnect with myself. The guided meditation allows me to delve into a state of deep relaxation while still remaining alert and aware.

For those who have tried Yoga Nidra, what are some of the positive effects you have experienced? Has it helped improve your overall well-being or manage stress?

If you haven't tried Yoga Nidra yet but feel intrigued after reading about it, take this as an encouraging invitation to explore it further. The practice shared here is led by Angela Inglis and it's an incredible guided journey that you will be sure to come back to time and time again!

Happy resting!
