You are not a tree

A lot of what I do to help my clients in yoga is to teach people how to stay grounded, in yoga postures and in life. To find connection when they are feeling lost, to find balance, stability and stillness while moving through the chaos of life.

While it is wonderful to practise balancing and being grounded, like a tree, it’s important to remember that we ourselves are not trees. (Surprise!) We can … no, we will be faced with hardship and uncertainty. This is promised to all of us, for this is the reality of life.

But.

You have the ability to move. You have the ability to change your mindset, to choose freedom, to choose success, to choose happiness, despite all that has been thrown at you. You are not a tree. You do not need to stay in one place and hope for the best. You can choose it. I don’t know your struggles, and you don’t know mine. It doesn’t matter what struggles they are. We all have them because none of us are exempt from the hardships of life.

What is available to you are the tools needed to become grounded when you need to be. To provide clarity, time and space when your thoughts are tangled. Stand tall and practise tree pose from yoga to get into these moments where you need to be detangled. But the moment you step down, remind yourself that you have the ability to continue the steps and get out of your situation. To keep moving, and keep living despite everything that has, and will still come your way.

Keep moving. Because you are not a tree.

It’s summertime here in Northern Manitoba- our days are long, the sun is never ending, and we know in a few short months the snow will fly, so we need to take advantage of the heat and sunshine. But for some of us, this is the worst time of year.

Land Acknowledgement

I was blessed to grow up in the beautiful Boreal forest of northern Manitoba Canada on Treaty 5 territory, where I was raised amidst the rich legacies, wisdom, and enduring resilience of First Nations and Inuit peoples. Today, as my business operates out of southern Manitoba, situated on Treaty 1 territory, the traditional lands of the Anishinaabe, Cree, Dakota and Red River Metis, I respectfully acknowledge that these lands have always been Indigenous lands.

I am forever grateful for the impact First Nations culture and spirituality have had on my life and value their partnerships and friendships made across this land. I am committed to ongoing education, reflection, and action. I am conscious of the painful impacts of colonization and the continued work needed to address its legacy. With humility and sincerity, I pledge to support efforts toward healing, justice, and reconciliation and continually strive to deepen my understanding of the diverse histories, traditions, and lived experiences of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities, and I pledge to support meaningful reconciliation through informed, thoughtful action.
