Happy Día de los Muertos, dancers and friends!

Daylight Savings Time ends in just a few minutes. As you set your clocks back today, I encourage you to consider what you might do with an extra hour every day. Would you commit it to your personal dance or yoga practice, nurture connections with loved ones, relax in your favorite sanctuary, volunteer for a local nonprofit organization, curl up with a good book, write a thank you note to someone you admire, or find a way to move towards your creative dream somehow?

Scheduling time to follow your bliss even for a few minutes every day can really change the quality of your life and your sense of purpose and fulfillment. Today is the perfect day to honor those who have come before us by embracing whatever makes us feel the most grateful and alive.

Looking forward to seeing you in class or at another event soon!

Bright blessings,

Bonnie
