Perfectionism will steal your joy, your inspiratio Perfectionism will steal your joy, your inspiration and your power. It will immobilize you, dampen your light & render you ineffective. In the words of Maya Angelou, “ Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Exploring different approaches to yoga poses, like for instance, using this chair in Warrior, inspires me, brings me joy and makes me feel empowered. When I want my poses to look “perfect” or like everyone else’s, my practice loses its joy and playfulness. Has perfectionism ever stopped you in your tracks? #yoga #onedayatatime #weareallrecoveringfromsomething #mayaangelou #mayaangelouquotes
Meditation is a great way to relieve anxiety or st Meditation is a great way to relieve anxiety or stress and doesn’t have to be complicated. It is also a part of yoga which deals with mental relaxation and concentration. The second sutra in the first chapter of Patanjali’s yoga sutras states that yoga happens when the mind becomes quiet. Keeping the mind calm and being level headed can help you do anything better and more and more companies are instituting meditation into their culture. Some benefits are * Better concentration * Reduced tension, anxiety and stress * Better sleep * Control of emotions * Supportive in kicking addictions and other self-defeating behaviors
 YFR can help you add meditation in your organization or small group #meditation #meditationpractice #onedayatatime #everybodyisayogabody #recoverywarrior #yogaforeverybody #yogaforrecovery #healthymindhealthybody

Diversifying your feed and following POC is an eas Diversifying your feed and following POC is an easy way to learn about other’s lived experiences. When you follow one person, Instagram will show you other similar accounts to follow. It is important to read, pause and process without making it about you. Before commenting, study and learn about the topic discussed in the post. Remember that it is always someone’s choice to engage with you or not. Respect boundaries. #whiteness #decenteringwhiteness #diversifyyourfeed #diversifyournarrative #diversifyyourinstagramfeed #somethingelse #upliftmelanatedvoices
Recovery is a process and sometimes a long, slow o Recovery is a process and sometimes a long, slow one. It’s about keeping your life in perspective and exploring alternatives to whatever choices you were making before. Your new life choices also have to be realistic. Through science we know that the brain is designed to adapt, evolve, and rewrite itself without thinking, neuroplasticity, but we need a path and a process. Yoga can sometimes get a bad rap. You can’t just breathe away all the shit and it is certainly not a miracle cure, but it does allow you to pause, breathe, and begin feeling over and over again. YFR teachings comes from a place of kindness and respect for your self and others. Yoga is way to lighten up and feel at home with your body, mind, and emotions- that doesn’t mean not feeling, it means being ok with what you are feeling- good bad or indifferent. Please join us for a 2 hour class Dec 10 for intention and manifestation through yogic practices Stay tuned for sign up link! #everybodyisrecoveringfromsomething #yogaeverydamday #yogaforrecovery #yogaisforeverybody #trysomethingnew #addiction #trusttheprocess
