Happy New Year from Full Circle Yoga KC

Happy New Year’s From Full Circle Yoga KC!

December 2017 went out with a bang with 10 babies being born! Congratulations to each of you Mamas who delivered little bundles of joy in 2017 and welcome to Motherhood! January 2018 is starting off with an exciting number of new Mamas finding Full Circle Yoga KC.

Full Circle Yoga KC is coming up on its one year anniversary! I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since I started this journey. There are so many journeys we go through in life, some planned some unexpected. I try to embrace each one as they come. You all have been my inspiration this past year as I met you and heard your stories. I hold your stories with care and deep appreciation. You’ve inspired me to become a better yoga instructor, to be a better listener, to continue to find a balance of relaxation and challenge in our yoga classes. You even inspire me to run longer as my inner voice says “hey, you tell your Mamas they can do anything for a minute, you can run for one more minute.” Thank you.

I’m so excited to start a Mama’s Corner starting on the every third Wednesday of every month. Our first gathering will be February 21^st. We will have BYOB at 9:00 am (PLEASE NOTE CHANGE FROM NORMAL TIME), followed by a time to connect with other Mama’s. It’s an opportunity to share tricks of the trade as well as the bumps in the road of motherhood and build community as we share in the most rewarding yet most challenging job ever! Snacks will be provided. Class is $5.00, please register online.

Happy Holidays Full Circle Yoga KC Families!

December Yoga News

During November I asked the same question in all my classes- What are you grateful for? Research shows those who express gratitude are happier and healthier individuals. Thank you for all the answers you shared. November also gave me the opportunity to reflect back on this year. I want to express my deepest gratitude to each of you who stepped into Full Circle Yoga KC. A tremendous sense of joy comes over as I think about each of you who walked into Full Circle Yoga KC to share in community, flow together, meet new friends, and embrace all the benefits that come with yoga. To each of you thank you for your trust, belief, and the community we’ve created together.

This is a busy time of year, a time of year we can easily forget about the importance of self care. Taking time for a class can offer time to stop, breath, and connect allowing you to walk off your mat feeling energized and ready to step back into the holiday cheer.

Here’s what’s happening in December!

Changes in class schedule:

Thursday evening prenatal yoga classes will now be combined as one starting at 6:00pm.

Prenatal Partner Yoga- Thursday December 14th at 6:00pm. Please note there will be no prenatal yoga at 6:00pm this night.

Q & A Time | What is Cranial Sacral Treatment

November 14, 2017 by Full Circle KC

What is Cranial Sacral Treatment (CST)? It is a gentle noninvasive form of bodywork to realign the head, spinal column, and sacrum for restored balance. I like to describe it as chiropractic work without the manipulation. And, the best kept secret for body balance!

I was hesitant to go to a chiropractor because I didn’t want physical manipulation and I didn’t want treatment to become a part of my routine. However, after recently having my first cranial sacral treatment I was amazed at my improved overall feeling of balance and alignment. For weeks my hamstrings had been tight despite yoga, stretching and strengthening. With the cranial sacral treatment it made an immediate difference in the tightness!

Cranial Sacral Therapy can be a wonderful way to care for yourself while pregnant as well as postpartum. Our center of gravity shifts, we gain weight during pregnancy, our body is working overtime to grow a little human all of which can disrupt our balance and create discomfort. Postpartum, we are reconnecting with our bodies, we find ourselves in the most peculiar positions for nursing or feeding, and general anxiety of parenthood can throw our balance off, again, creating discomfort.

Recently, Full Circle Yoga KC joined up with Lee Veal to offer a special event for mamas and partners. What an incredible class that allowed mamas and partners to add to their toolbox! Lee Veal, Advance Cranial Sacral expert, showed simple movement techniques partners could offer mama to support her throughout pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum. Mamas were then able to provide the same resistance work to their partner so each could feel restored balance. The class focused specifically on the Psoas and Piriformis muscle to help align and open the pelvis.
