Honoring ourselves

Written By Lisa Vratny-Smith

On March 1 Venus moved into retrograde creating space and energy for deep reflection and healing of old wounds. Often we carry wounds of not feeling like we are enough or able to live up to the expectations of others. This time of reflection is an opportunity to honor ourselves for who we are in each moment. Remembering that just as the ocean ebbs and flows, so does our energy, our regulation, our ability to manage the challenges of our daily lives. Offering ourselves the grace and compassion to allow ourselves to show up as we are in the moment is a practice and a gift essential to our wellbeing.

We are also entering the spring eclipse season with a Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse on March 14 and a New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse on March 29. These are both powerful astrological events bringing us closer to the closing of some chapters and the opening of others.

I have added a new sound healing recording on Insight Timer. Feel free to enjoy this Chakra Clearing Sound Bath to soothe your senses and restore your balance.

There will be no Saturday Morning Yoga March 8th or 15th. As always feel free to practice with previous recordings of Saturday Morning Classes as well as Evening Chair Yoga on my Youtube channel.

Sometimes we need more than an hour or two of care to truly meet our needs and retreats are the perfect opportunity for this. This spring I am offering an afternoon retreat on March 29, a weekend retreat April 25 - 27, and a 5 day retreat specifically for educators June 22-26. All events are in person and will provide you the opportunity to experience a nurturing, supportive environment, soothe your frazzled nervous system, and find community. Learn more at the links below or feel free to email me with questions at lisa@findingthebalancewithin.com.
