“The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.” — Rumi

☀️ Today... Pause. It's the Summer Solstice.
The longest day light of the year.
A moment to notice the light.
A moment to honor how far you've come.
A moment to simply pause.

THREE THINGS (magic in threes)

✨ Pause...
Breathe in for a count of 4. Pause.
Breathe out for a count of 4. Pause.
Repeat three times.

✨ Pause...
Name three things you're grateful for.
Big or small.
Let them settle into your heart.

✨ Pause...
Step outside.
Feel the warmth of the sun on your skin.
Notice the sky above.
The earth beneath your feet.
The beauty all around you.

✨ Pause...
Place your hands at your heart.
Ask yourself:
"What would I like to cultivate during the second half of this year?"
Listen quietly.
Trust what arises.

☀️ Happy Summer Solstice.

May this season bring light, nourishment, joy, and the courage to trust in the unfolding.

✨ Congratulations, Yoga-Mojo RYT200 Class of 2026 ✨

We gathered to celebrate the completion of Yoga-Mojo's 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training at Cary Yoga Collective and the graduation of eight remarkable women on Sunday, May 24th!

Over the past five months, these students have dedicated themselves to the study and practice of yoga—exploring asana, philosophy, anatomy, pranayama, meditation, mythology, sequencing, mantras, mudras and mindful living. Some began the journey with the intention of teaching, while others simply wished to deepen their understanding of yoga and themselves. Along the way, each discovered new strengths, insights, and possibilities both on and off the mat.

It has been an absolute joy and privilege to witness their growth, courage, curiosity, and commitment. Each arrived with unique gifts, life experiences, and aspirations, and each leaves with a deeper understanding of yoga and the confidence to share its teachings with others.

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have been part of their journey and look forward to seeing where their paths lead next.

Please join me in congratulating our newest Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teachers (RYT200)! 💛

And for those who have ever felt called to deepen their practice, learn more about yoga, or explore teaching, the next Yoga-Mojo 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is being planned for this fall. Dates are currently being finalized. If you'd like to learn more, please visit Yoga-Mojo.com and send me a message through my website.

No filter needed when Mother Nature paints the sky like this ✨🌅
Karl and I escaped to Emerald Isle for a few days to relax, reset, and simply breathe. After hosting a retreat ❤️ and a wonderful YMYTT Yoga Teacher Training graduation❤️, this moment felt like a gentle reminder from the universe:
Rest is sacred.
Stillness is medicine.
And sometimes the most powerful practice is simply being present. Gratitude~
May this sunset remind you to soften, exhale, and trust the timing of your own unfolding.

Due to unexpected personal circumstances, Megan’s Virtual Class on May 31st will be taught by Loretta Jo, and then another class will be scheduled with Megan for a future date.

We are so excited to bring a virtual class with Loretta to our community in the meantime, and cannot wait to offer another with Megan to our community soon— and we deeply appreciate your understanding and support. 💛

With gratitude,� Cary Yoga Collective 🙏
