Togethery Sort of Holiday

"Christmas is a togethery sort of holiday," said Pooh. "That's my favorite kind," said Piglet. ~A.A. Milne 🍯 #winniewisdom #mrsbroamhats

Believe in YoursELF!

When it's rainy outside, cozy up to a warm fire with a good book and Christmas Elf.  Make your "sunshine" indoors today!🔥📗🎅 #mrsbroamhats #mrsbroamREADS

Oh, Christmas Tree! Oh, Christmas Tree!

How lovely are your branches!🎶 When you pretend to be a tree with your body, you sharpen focus and concentration skills.  You stretch your legs, body, and shoulders and strengthen your ankles, calves, and abdominal muscles.  Working this yoga posture is helpful for flat feet and sciatica.  Feel the ground with one foot, really "grow roots" into the earth. Kickstand the other by the ankle or balance it on your calf or thigh. Press the palms together with thumbs to heart, or grow your ornament-filled branches high. Relax your shoulders and turn on the LIGHTS by turning the corners of your mouth toward your ears!!🎄 #beatree #iloveyoga #putalittleyogainyourholiday #mrsbroamhats #mrsbroamMOVES

Wanna SHINE?

Yoga helps folks of all ages SHINE!🌟 Want to learn about sharing yoga with children? I'm doing a FREE workshop at Pisgah Lutheran Church, Sunday, December 8, 2:00-3:30!
Children experience the same benefits from a Yoga practice as adults – increased body awareness, overall fitness, mental acuity and stress hardiness.

By learning to teach Yoga to children you can help them:

• Develop strength, flexibility and coordination – of both body and mind
• Improve focus
• Raise self-awareness
• Build self-esteem
• Release stress
• Relax completely
• Breathe well
• Cultivate healthy habits
• Generate a sense of inner peace and contentment they can share with the world
