Surrender
Posted on April 26, 2020 by Caryn Emme
I used to think surrendering meant giving up. It used to mean letting go in a negative way…you know, wave the white flag because you’ve lost the fight. I’ve been challenged with the idea of surrender in my yoga practice. So much of yoga… Continue Reading “Surrender”

Five Years of Writing
Posted on April 13, 2020 by Caryn Emme

Yet, again, I find myself taking a lesson from my yoga mat and applying it to the real world. In yoga, we refer to Sthira/Sukha. How strength and softness can exist simultaneously. You can feel both the hardness of a pose and you can… Continue Reading “Finding Ease When Things Get Difficult”

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Caryn Emme
I’ve entered a world I know nothing about. It completely brings to life what I learned in yoga teacher training not too long ago. There is so much I don’t know. And, although on some days that makes me want to throw my hands… Continue Reading “How to Choose What to do First?”
