What pivotal moments have you experienced lately?
What exactly made them pivotal to you?
For me, these moments showed up and celebrating them became my intention during my Costa Rica yoga retreat. As I reflect, I am grateful.
I recently returned from our 8th Annual Yoga Retreat with Hot Yoga of Delray.

This retreat brought me full circle from our first yoga retreat to Costa Rica 10 years ago!
Ten years ago, I sat in the same yoga room with little exposure or understanding as to what yoga really is.
This July 4th week, I was honored and humbled to teach 5 Rock and Slow Flow YinYasa practices to an amazing group of some of my closest soul sisters and new friends that have touched my heart and soul.
A celebratory pivotal moment indeed!
Another pivotal moment for me was to observe the connections and deeper friendships that were forming with the special people that were part of our Costa Rica retreat.
Watching friends experience this type of transformation for the first time, for an extended time, during the trip as we all embraced the experience of being open to our own feelings and healings was absolutely amazing.
For me, yoga retreats have become part of my growth as an individual.
Depending on the type of retreat, I’m able to experience sightseeing, quiet time, healing massages, energy work and of course, yoga.
As usual, with all the retreats I attend, I make the time to go inside my own self and mind to reflect on my own personal and professional growth, due to my yoga journey.

Each retreat forever changes me as I continue to learn, grow and thrive.
Growth takes time, focus, practice and openness to change. We don’t always see it right away but it’s always there within us if we really want to make a change. Growth is hard, Growth can bring up some difficult feelings. Growth is good!
Doing the work goes a long way, it’s the foundation for me to continue to achieve my personal and professional goals.
The first weekend I returned from Costa Rica I was blessed to have my son in town. We hiked two mountains to experience together these amazing views and our own quiet time.

Another pivotal moment of being able have this shared hiking passion and experiences with Dylan is something I will forever cherish and never forget.

He’s wearing the Pura Vida hat. Pure life indeed.
I’ve decided that celebrating pivotal moments is going to be my intention for the rest of 2022!
