HIP HAPPENINGS @ NURTURE

Wow, it has been awhile since my last post and I have realized that while Momma Jane is away, I have no time to play. Nurture founder and my Momma Jane, Karen Smith, took a little much needed vaca time last month. Momma Jane certainly works hard and deserves her time away whenever she can get it, but a lot tends to fall on my shoulders when she is gone. Fortunately she is always refreshed and rejuvenated when she comes back home, although I am not sure how much relaxation she accomplishes when we are constantly on the phone chatting about Nurture. Anyhoo, I am so glad to have her back and to have some time to play catch up. We have so many fabulous events, specials, and workshops going on and coming up so I will begin with those.

4 Week Beginner Yoga w/ Kathryn Smyly
Begins Monday June 1st, 2009 7-8:15p.m.

Learn the basics and enjoy a session at an hour suitable for night owls like myself.

$40

2 Hour Restorative Yoga Session w/ Karen Smith
Friday June 19th, 2009 5-7p.m.

One of my faves because it takes me a full hour to begin to unwind and I always leave restored and totally rejuvenated. I always think I will come home and soak in a bubble bath, but end up with this burst of energy and wash dishes and do laundry instead, then sleep like a rock. It's more than fabulous.

$20 (members $15)

Much Loving Kindness to Kathryn Smyly for her evening classes, most of which I can attend.

NURTURE A NEW ATTITUDE

It is time for this little lady to take hold of a New Attitude. I am not sure if it's the wacky weather or just a serious 'case of the Mondays' but I have just been out of it lately. Seeing as how I have exhausted every excuse in the book as to why I have not been making it to Yoga, I gotta get it together. Going to shake it up a bit and hit the morning Yoga session tomorrow, not a morning person AT ALL, so this should be interesting. Have to get out of my funk and Yoga is just the ticket. Isn't it funny how there is always a way to weasle out of what you know you need the most?

Pretty Pedis, New TranquiliT togs in bright hues (coming soon), Deck sitting, Derby Day @ Oaklawn, Fresh & Fun Hip Happenings @ Nurture...Spring may be hedging, but I am ready to Bloom.

What is almost Spring inspiring you to do?

NURTURE GREENING PART II

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all. While you are decked out in your GREEN attire today think about how you can GO GREEN everyday. After reading The Eco Chick Guide to Life: How to Be Fabulously Green by Starre Vartan I have been inspired to shop GREEN by looking for eco-friendly fabrics such as bamboo and organic cotton. I love cruising around Nimli and Green Loop and have found some super stylish GREEN items. Here at Nurture, of course we love our TranquiliT Yoga Wear and are looking forward to the Spring Line that will be arriving soon. Keep an eye out for beautiful bright colors in your favorite eco-friendly Yoga Togs.


Happy GREENING!!!

NURTURE BLOSSOMING

Kimberly Wilson sprinkles this quote all over her sites and I cannot help but tear up a little every time I read it. Such beautiful and powerful words, I had to share...


"and the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."
~ anais nin

I hope these words inspire you as much as they do me.
