Adaption. Transformation. Resiliency.
I feel as if these three words have been at the forefront of this last year and a half. For all of us, there was a day in 2020 when everything changed. All of a sudden life as we knew it was no longer an option. It changed differently for each of us. Some of us became homeschool parents. Some of us were out of work. Many of us were impacted financially. Or with how we spent our time. And with who. All of us have had to adapt in some way. Many ways. When we left our NYC apartment on March 13th 2020, I had no idea that I would never live there again. I had no idea that I wouldn’t step foot in a yoga studio in almost two years. I had no idea I would move to Delaware. Or that my daughter wouldn’t attend school full time for another year and a half. I also had no idea that I would start teaching movement and meditation online and create an entirely new thing called eMOTION. Adaptation. Transformation and Resiliency have been the name of the game for so many of us over and over and over again. And it’s hard. And yet, I want to say that it’s also ok. Perhaps one of the silver linings to arise out of all of this is that maybe, just a little bit, we have been able to give ourselves the permission to change when necessary. Whether it is our minds, our course, our actions or how we spend our time. I think one of the biggest human afflictions we face is our resistance to change, even though it is the one thing we can continue to count on happening. In so many ways, navigating these changes is exactly what eMOTION, both in Movement & Stillness has always been about. I have always seen my work in all of it to simply offer tools for when the you-know-what really hits the fan. So that when things really change, you don’t feel as if you have done something wrong, but rather you know you can count on yourself to adapt. To transform. And to be resilient. This kind of mailability is one of the healthiest self-care practices we could take on. eMOTION is doing all of that right now. I am doing all of that right now. It continues onward. Only I am changing her to adapt better to my own needs right now. I wish that kind of audacity for us all really. Rather than teaching weekly LIVE movement classes, I will now be recording a movement class a week that will be sent to your inbox via a link that will remain accessible for 30 days. Monday Night Meditation will continue to be LIVE because the community support and beauty that happens there simply cannot happen with out your gorgeous beings in the room. It is also my aim to send you a recorded meditation for the week to simply listen to. Every week, one email, a couple links and some brief words from me. It’s simple. It gives me more time to be flexible for my own needs and the needs of my family. It also keeps my schedule open for coaching and the learning/creating that I will be doing. If you have been a part of the eMOTION community past or present, I want you to know how grateful I am for you. None of this would even be possible without you. I hope that you will continue to be a part of eMOTION as it transforms into a more hand delivered self-care. There will be no big platform. No fancy website. I’m not looking to grow an empire but rather come more intimately right to your virtual “door-step” each week. Here are your options to either join or upgrade: The eMOTION Monthly Subscription - $40/month This will bring you your weekly email from me with the link to the week’s Movement class and the link for our LIVE Monday Meditation session. The Coaching Subscription - $120/month This includes the weekly email, all of the links and a monthly one on one coaching session with me with a discount for those who wish to do more than one session per month. Book a Free 30 Minute Coaching Consultation If you aren't quite sure if coaching is right for you, book a free 30 minute chat with me to find out! Both of the subscriptions can be canceled at any time, upgraded or downgraded as needed. I am genuinely here to support you in getting what you need in taking care of yourself. My special talent in this world is helping to teach these skills that too often don’t get taught or handed down to us. Skills that are the epitome of knowing how to adapt, transform and be resilient in life without losing ourselves. I hope you will continue to transform with me as life continues to roll on into the unexpected. As it always has, but perhaps now without the blinders on. I hope to see you soon xoxo, Sara
