Transform Your New Year with Our Special Tradition

Season’s greetings!

Amidst the holiday cheer, I’m excited to share with you a personal tradition that Dean-the-dream and I have implemented since 2018. It’s different from the usual festive fun, but trust me, the rewards are immense! We’ve been kickstarting each year with a special detox – a tradition that’s not just another holiday activity, but a true game-changer for our health.

This isn’t about quick detox drinks or intense fasts. We’re talking about a detox that truly respects and rejuvenates your body, and that’s important because not all detox methods are equally beneficial.

The truth is we’re all being exposed to historic levels of new toxins. (As if our air, water, food, pharma, and products aren’t already clogging up our organs of elimination.)

Yes, our bodies have miraculous systems of detoxification – but they’re overwhelmed! This is exactly why Dean and I chose to start our detox tradition, and why it might just be the perfect time for you to also join this journey towards rejuvenation.

My colleague Robyn Openshaw, the GreenSmoothieGirl, has studied human detoxification for 29 years for 10,000 hours (more time than she spent studying for her advanced degrees combined), including the time she spent studying with holistic doctors and professionals around the world.

Her GreenSmoothieGirl Detox has influenced over 19,000 lives, over the past 11 years, including mine!

Robyn believes that all her time and work is paying off, because, in 2024, EVERYONE needs to do a dedicated, science-based detoxification program more than ever! Everyone she talks to seems to be stressed, lacking energy, and dealing with health challenges.

She wants to help as many people as possible. Your first step is to watch her Detox Secrets Video Series.

She’s distilled all her knowledge, giving people a chance to learn the EASY way. And she’s opening it to my community — for FREE! — for this month only. Join today to discover the truth about detoxification.

Because what you learn could lead to unbelievable results (for you and for the people you care about).

Like dropping weight where you need to? Yes, participants see this, but also much, much more–where weight loss is just a byproduct of truly cleaning up your temple. She sent me a bunch of testimonials, and I’m blown away!

“I feel great. I have lost not only 12.5 pounds —

but fat, too. My love handles/muffin top are gone.

I feel like this program has benefited all aspects of my life.”

— Chantel H., Idaho Falls, Idaho

One thing is for sure:

The body wasn’t meant to deal with the level of highly processed foods and harmful chemicals it’s exposed to these days.

Yes, the body was meant to protect you. But the crazy-high levels of stuff your body must deal with daily is just too much.

Toxins — and the leftovers from unhealthy choices — build up in the body.

And then, they deplete your IMMUNE system. And it all just gets worse from there.

I learned a ton from Robyn’s videos. And I want you to discover these Detox Secrets.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • The 7 types of toxicity — and how to eliminate them, for good
  • Why detoxing (the right way) could finally give you the permanent weight loss you’re seeking
  • The 8 most detoxifying foods — and the 11 most toxic foods (some of these might surprise you)
  • Why detoxing the right way is about MORE than the physical results you’ll experience

>> Join Robyn’s Detox Secrets Video Series. Because it’s only open for my community until the end of the month!

I’m cheering you on!

Carolyn Cooper

P.S. Robyn runs her GreenSmoothieGirl Detox online with a group of thousands every January. Here are just a few of the hundreds of glowing testimonials people send her about her science-based Detox program:

“I have done other ‘cleanses,’ but this is by far the best. Thank you, Robyn, for putting in the time, effort, and love to research the ‘best of the best’ programs and put together a useful, DOABLE detox/cleanse for us ‘average’ people, and continually being a source of inspiration, education and, above all, support!” — Karen H., Las Vegas, Nevada

“I absolutely loved the GSG detox program! It was well thought out, comprehensive, informative, and practical. I would highly recommend participating in the full-support option because the additional videos, pre-recorded talks with experts, and the live Q&A calls were invaluable to my success.” — Holly V., Gig Harbor, Washington

Guess How Many Years in Business?
6 Lessons Learned

Guess How Many Years in Business?
6 Lessons Learned

August is a big milestone month over here at SimplyAlign – I’m celebrating my business anniversary! Can I get a virtual high five?

Two decades is how long I’ve been online, and that’s a lot! I started in 2003, with my “Living in the Flow” Newsletter, Tai Chi Flow videos, and energy sessions. And I recently stumbled upon an archive of my old newsletter/emails from 2010 going forward– talk about a blast from the past!

Wow, I was busy through those years. Guest spots on summits, podcasts, radio shows, speaking on stages big and small, teaching across the US and in Australia (7 times), hey I forgot that I even wrote a chapter in two best selling books – it’s been quite the ride and I’m still enjoying it…oh so much! And I’m excited about what’s coming up this fall -stay tuned more details coming in the next month.

In the meantime, I’ve been thinking of all the lessons I’ve learned along this 20-year entrepreneurial journey. I’d love to share a few of those nuggets with you because they relate to ALL areas of life, not just business. So here we go:

1. Use the 80/20 rule. Also known as the Pareto Principle: roughly 80% of outcomes come from 20% of effort. For example, 20% of a plant contains 80% of the fruit, 20% of a company’s customers bring in 80% of the profit, and I’d venture to guess – you wear 20% of the clothes in your closet 80% of the time. You get the point. I had to learn NOT to use 80% of my time for a 20% result. To instead, prioritize my highest impact tasks (20%) for the optimal, and easiest results (80%).

2. Honor the Struggle / Embrace the Suck. Running a business is fun…except when it’s not. There are parts of business that I don’t love: admin tasks, learning new technology, communication misunderstandings. But that’s like everything in life, you’ve got to take the unpleasant with the pleasant because those good parts are so worth it. I delegate what I can, and have learned to appreciate the unavoidable parts. I choose to see them as opportunities to rise and be bolder.

3. Time Blocking is my to-do list’s best friend. I started time-blocking to keep myself on task. It’s my daily to-do list put in certain blocks of time, so I never have to waste time mulling over what I should work on next, and getting distracted in the process. I prioritize that beforehand. It also helps me to totally focus on the task at hand during that block, even if another idea pops in my brain (which happens a lot). I just write myself a short note to remember it and keep on the task at hand.

4. You can’t grow what you don’t know. You can’t make a plant grow if you don’t know its soil, right? Same goes for business and life. You’ve gotta pay attention to those numbers, like that wise Peter Drucker said, ‘You can’t manage what you don’t measure.’ But here’s the kicker—once upon a time, I was hesitant about diving into my income figures. It felt like checking the scale every day when you’re trying to be healthy, ya know? Too much and it’s like getting overly focused on numbers. But fast forward to now, and I’m all about those digits. It’s one way of giving my business the respect it deserves.

5. Outdoors + Movement = Clarity. I love working and it seems there is always something to be done. That’s not a good combo…it means since there is always work to do and I like working…well, I’ve learned to get myself away from my office. Outside in nature is a great place to be – it “sharpens the saw” and can be pure gold for creativity. Some of my best ideas have come to me because of sneaking away from work to enjoy nature on a walk or high-speed bike ride.

6. Do Less Better. When overwhelmed, PRUNE. When I get too much on my plate for too long, I’ve learned the answer is to take a look at what’s feeling overwhelming and ask myself the 3-Ds: “What can I delegate, delay, or delete?” I find most tasks fit into one of those buckets. Pruning back the non-essentials makes it possible to do the essentials – to do less – better. It frees up more creative power for the most important things. Keeping it simple is always a good thing in my book!

Those are just a few of the lessons I’ve learned on this journey. I’ll probably share more in the future, but this is long enough for now.

Oh, and guess what?

August isn’t just about SimplyAlign’s birthday bash – it’s also my wedding anniversary month! Yup, Dean-the-dream and I are marking 42 years together! Holy cow, that’s a long time! Maybe next week I’ll have a list of what I’ve learned from marriage, but probably not because even 42 years does not an expert make, haha!

Business and Marriage

But have you ever noticed how business and marriage share a bunch of similarities? They both involve navigating tough times and celebrating victories. Both demand care, patience, teamwork, and a good sense of humor.

Just wanted to say thanks for being part of my journey. Your support means a lot!

Much Love,

Carolyn Cooper

Your future is calling…

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

I’m glad you’re reading this…

Because I know I’ve been talking a lot about the SimplyAlign Training the past few weeks.

I always get so excited leading up to a training because I love putting these tools in people’s hands.

And I love knowing that what my students learn goes into the world in the form of improving lives (theirs and the people they will work with).

And because this is the only SimplyAlign Training/Certification I’ll be teaching this entire year,

and because doors are only open for 1 more week…

I did this FB Live to answer some great questions that have come in:

And hey, this is only 12 minutes, so if you’re curious BUT short on time, go ahead and use the little GEAR on the bottom right to speed it up to 1.5. That’s such a great little techie tool, amiright?

I answer these in a bit more detail in the video, but for a quick overview here’s what’s covered:

1) What is included in the SA course tuition?

OH, it’s not only a 4-day training! You also get:

  • Energy Healing Jumpstart online course
  • SimplyAlign online Business Course
  • SimplyAlign Practitioner Community (SAPC) Membership for a full year
    (In the video I explain what’s included in our awesome community)
  • Personal Session with a Seasoned Practitioner
  • 2-day Refresher Course (choose from 3x each year)

  • BONUS (2 additional online training courses to help you AFTER you get certified)

2) Can I take the training to help heal myself and my family, without having to get Certified and start a business?

Yes, a lot of our students just want the info and community for their own personal development. Certification is only required if you’re using SA as a business. (In the above video I also mention a few of the Certification Requirements).

3) What is taught and how does it differ from other modalities?

The video will fill you in on this, and for a listing of what’s included go here:
https://simplyalign.com/certify/

And in case you missed it, more questions are answered by some of our Practitioners in this fun video.

I’d love to have you in our 2022 class, and in our larger SA community, if it feels like the right fit for you.

I want to make sure you’ve got ALL the scoop to make an informed decision, so for any other questions you can reply to this email.

Whatever you choose, I’m grateful for you, SimplyAlign.

Much Love,
Carolyn

10 Reasons to Do a Detox in January

/0 Comments/in /by

Happy New Year ~ I hope your holidays were delightful!

As you’re setting new goals for the year, on your goal list do you have anything about losing weight or getting healthy? If so you’re not alone, most people do include that in their goals!

If your health isn’t where you want it to be — or you want to do your best to protect it — it’s important to discover the truth about human detoxification. But, there are a lot of opinions and products out there. And not only could you lose money, but detoxing the wrong way can be harmful.

My colleague Robyn Openshaw, the GreenSmoothieGirl, has studied human detoxification for 10,000 hours (more time than she spent studying for her master’s and PhD combined), including time she spent studying with holistic doctors and clinicians around the world.

Hubby and I have been doing this detox twice a year for the past 3 years.

We love it, and that’s why I love to tell people about it!

It’s 26 days – but don’t worry, everything is all spelled out for you,
you will learn all sorts of new ways to help your body be it’s best,
the detox Facebook group is super helpful at answering any questions and supporting you along the way. And just think, by early February you’ll feel clean, clear, brain fog gone, several pounds gone, inflammation gone,
and you’ll be oh so proud of yourself!

Seriously, it’s a great way to start a New Year!

The GreenSmoothieGirl Detox has changed over 17,000 lives, over the past 10 years.

You can still watch her Detox Secrets Video Series, for only a short while longer. (You can watch instantly after you opt in!)

This is what actual participants of her program experienced:

  1. Average 12.5 pound weight loss (some as high as 27 pounds!)
  2. Higher ENERGY, all day
  3. Joint pain disappearing
  4. Better digestion (MORE coming out, which is good)
  5. Disappearing autoimmune symptoms
  6. Food cravings gone
  7. Mood stabilizing (calming anxiety and depression)
  8. Skin clearing
  9. Blood sugar stabilizing
  10. Brain fog clearing, mind is sharp again

She understands the SCIENCE of how proper detoxification works, and she developed a comprehensive, guided, whole-body Detox program that she only leads with a big group ONCE per year, in January.

And though the deadline for the Early Bird pricing has ended … she’s decided to extend the 40% off for one week, because she believes doing a dedicated detox is more important EVER this year, and she wants as many people as possible to do it!

The main group starts Tues. Jan. 11th, but really,
you can start whenever it works best with your schedule.
I was ready so I started today ~ woo hoo!

The Detox program systematically cleanses all the major body systems, in an order approved by detox experts, and with products that support and enhance the body’s natural immune function all the way.

What makes Robyn’s 26-Day Detox unique … and better than other detox programs?

  • It’s comprehensive, a WHOLE-body detox — rather than just focusing on detoxing one organ, or simply eating less or healthier food for a few days.
  • It’s based on SCIENCE — every step was created based on what is known about how the body detoxifies and how it can be aided and accelerated in that process.
  • You get to eat REAL food, and you won’t feel hungry — the foods required are real foods you can purchase at your grocery, and you eat plenty of food, and shouldn’t feel very hungry.
  • It’s GUIDED and supported — so you’ll know exactly what to do, and you’ll have support from health coaches and others doing the detox every step of the way.

You’ll hear more about the GreenSmoothieGirl Detox during Robyn’s Detox Video Series.

I hope you’ll join. I think you’ll learn information that will open your eyes to the possibility (and the truth) of detoxification done the right way.

Much love,

Carolyn Cooper

P.S. Check out what Kris K. of Payson, Utah, said after competing Robyn’s guided, comprehensive, science-backed GreenSmoothieGirl Detox:

“This program keeps you full, healthy, and happy! I have tried many other detox cleanses before and this one is by far the best. Although it took a lot of time to prepare the food, I made large quantities of Green Smoothies and learned to love them.

Overall, I haven’t felt this good in years! My energy increased every day I was on the program and I actually started running again. I’m happy to report that by keeping my energy high using Robyn’s recommendations, I easily kicked my caffeine & chocolate addiction. My husband lost 12 lbs. on the program and I lost 9. (We are both in our mid-50s.) Both of us LOVE the healthy education we have had over the past month and the support from our family and friends on this journey. We will continue this journey together and live to be 100 years old.”

Watch Robyn’s Detox Secrets Video Series— and then, consider joining her detoxification program (you can choose your start date and what works for you).

 

Top 10 Ways to Eat Healthy Every Day

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Whether you are dieting to lose weight or changing your food choices to improve your health, making change isn’t always easy.Top 10 Ways to eat Healthy Experts say that we have to stay with a change for at least 28 days to make it “stick.” Here are 10 ways to make your new food habits a solid part of the “new you.”

1. Start slowly and be realistic The reality is that old habits die hard. So don’t try to do too much too quickly. Make one or two changes at first, solidify those new habits, and then when you feel ready, take the next step. It’s better to make a few healthier choices—not drinking sugary sodas or switching from fast food to home-prepared food—than to completely change the way you have been eating all at once.

2. Get support Find a nutrition buddy! It’s easier to make changes when you declare your intention to others out loud. Once you do, select a few supporters to lean on during those times when you feel yourself wavering. Team up with a friend. Ask a sibling or spouse to cheer you on. Get the support of your social circle for when you go to parties or get-togethers.

3. Clean out your kitchen You can’t eat those potato chips if they aren’t there! Working with your nutritionist or healthcare professional, decide what a “healthy” pantry looks like. Then clean out your cupboards and restock them with the healthier alternatives. Grocery stores are changing to meet the growing consumer demand for healthier foods, especially snack choices, so look beyond the brands you are accustomed to buying on automatic pilot.

4. Dare your taste buds Most people eat the same foods over and over again, and tend not to roam too far afield in the culinary world. Seek out tasty new recipes that use the foods you are substituting into your new diet. Dare yourself to be adventurous in your palate. Love burgers? Try a portobello mushroom burger instead. Always wondered what a kiwi tastes like? Now is the time to find out!

5. Plan ahead Temptation tends to strike when we are away from home and can’t control our food choices. So if you are planning to go out to dinner, go online first and see if the restaurant posts its menu on its website. That way you can determine if their culinary offerings support your new dietary preferences. When it comes to work, traveling and on-the-go activities, prepare some healthy snacks and pack them to take with you.

6. Deal with cravings When the craving for a donut strikes, have a healthy alternative available. Better yet, wait out the craving by busying yourself. You will be surprised how quickly a craving passes when you occupy yourself with something else.

7. Go easy on yourself No one is perfect. If you occasionally slip in your new dietary habits, that’s okay. Let go of any guilt, move on, and renew your commitment to the new, healthier you.

8. Set goals Work with your nutritionist or healthcare provider to set realistic goals. Then write them down! By having clear, identifiable goals and tracking your progress, it will be to celebrate your successes, which keeps you motivated, and to alert yourself to problem areas and find solutions.

9. Accentuate the positive Continually remind yourself why you have made the dietary changes you have. Post positive affirmations around your home and workplace, even in your car. The more you remind yourself of the benefits of healthy eating, the more motivated you will be.

10. Reward yourself Changing a habit isn’t easy, so celebrate your decision to do so. Give yourself regular pats on the back. If you have a support person or group, celebrate milestones with them. Doing so on a weekly, or even daily, basis not only will help you stay motivated but also will help you feel good about yourself and your progress.

And finally…

11. Join me for this month’s Group Call “Weight Loss”. Let’s get rid of those pesky little triggers that get in the way of being able to make and keep our weight loss and healthy eating goals!

Green Smoothie Power

/4 Comments/in , , /by

Green Smoothie PowerI start almost every day with a green smoothie, my husband usually has two a day.

I do not measure anything, just toss in what’s in the fridge of freezer, or what I feel like for that day.

And, btw…I don’t pay much attention to those who say smoothies have too much sugar.  It is all natural sugar from fruits and my motto is, if it was in the Garden of Eden, I’m not going to be fearful about eating too much of it. (Says the girl who just ate an entire watermelon by herself!)  -Hey, it was one of those smaller, seedless kind…don’t judge me  *smile*

I’m all about simple, and this makes it simple for me. I buy the huge bags of Kale and Spinach at Costco, then separate them out into small baggies (a big handful size) and put the small baggies back into the large Kale or Spinach bags (just to make it easy), then put the big bags into the freezer.  So when I’m preparing a smoothie I just pull out a baggie or two of each.  Yes! It gives me 2+ servings of greens before I’ve even exercised or showered!

If you are serious about this, you really need to invest in a high-powered blender.

I invested in a Blendtec a few years ago and love it!  Ours gets used many times a day.  Another great brand is VitaMix. Green Smoothie Girl has a great article about blenders here:

http://greensmoothiegirl.com/favorite-things/tools/blenders/

GreenSmoothie

This is my basic Green Smoothie Recipe:

  • 1 small baggie kale
  • 1 small baggie spinach
  • Banana
  • 1-2 cups Frozen fruit– whatever combo you like.

Note: Berries will give you a brown not green smoothie. And I prefer not the berries with seeds. Peaches, Mangos, Pineapple, Cherries, Berries, or mixed combo!

  • Any non-dairy milk – Rice, Almond, Hemp, Soy, Coconut

Note: my favorite is Rice because it tastes a little sweeter. I do about ¾ cup and then the rest water –

  •  Optional Additions:

1-2 Tab. Chia Seeds

1-2 Tab Ground Flax seed

1 tsp coconut oil (not too much or its greasy)

Sometimes I add some mint leaves, or a tsp of vanilla flavoring. You may want to add some Stevia or Agave nectar – I used to do that occasionally, but I’ve been off sugar for so long that this tastes plenty sweet to me.  If I add extra greens I will throw in a date or two to add some sweetness (make sure the pit is out).  And the dates don’t always blend completely so you may get little chunks of sweetness here and there –mmm, delightful!

If I have any fruit or even salad items that I know won’t get eaten before they get too old, I just chop them and put in a baggie in the freezer to throw in a smoothie!  I never throw out old fruit/veggies anymore.  The veggies can be thrown into a soup, or enchiladas, lasagna –whatever. They are a great exchange for the cheese and meat.

 

Here’s another refreshing idea:

Lately, we’ve been freezing watermelon (chunks) and then putting them in the blender (alone) for a delightful melon slush! Yumm. (add in a little mint too!)

 

Enjoy!  This is such a fun journey ~ and every cell in your body will love it!

What’s Up With A Plant Based Diet?

/2 Comments/in , , /by

What's Up With A Plant Based Diet?

Many of you know I eat a whole food plant based diet and have asked for some resources to look into and get a feel for how that would work in your life. Yay You!

I’ve gathered up some of my favorite videos to help get you started:

Forks over Knives

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfY2C4WaJ3s

If you are interested at all in moving towards plant based diet, I highly suggest watching the documentary Forks over Knives. Here is their website: http://www.forksoverknives.com/

There are so many documentaries similar to this. If you google “plant based documentaries” you’ll find several lists. You can probably find many of themat your local library or on Netflix.

Also, if you go to Youtube and search for plant based diet, there is a lot of info.

My favorite authorities on this subject are:

Dr. Neal Barnard  –love this-  “Breaking the Food Seduction”

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDgA3T_JF2A

Dr. McDougall

Dr. Furman

Dr. T. Collin Campbell   author of “The China Study”

Dr Caldwell Esselstyne

Rip Esselstyne author of “The Engine 2 Diet”

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dv-lE6f7Gug

Juliana Hever –author of “The Idiot’s guide to Plant Based Nutrition”

Juliana has a great 9 min Tedtalk here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgCSunBfREQ

That’s the talk I wish I would have written and given. *smile* She also has many videos (short cooking demos) on YouTube with Chef AJ, called “The Chef and the Dietitian”.

You can also do a search for plant based nutrition BLOGS –there are many with great recipes and ideas!

I will list some of my favorite plant based recipe blogs in an upcoming blog post.

Please comment below on how these helped you, or if you have any questions!

How is marketing online working for you?

/0 Comments/in , /by

If you’re trying to build a business, you’re probably scrambling to
navigate the world of online marketing.

Well, I have a bit of news regarding that world. My friend,
Marnie Pehrson, the creator of the longest running article
directory (IdeaMarketers) just closed the doors on her site
and completely reinvented it under a new model (IgnitePoint.com)
Why? Because she says article marketing just isn’t working the
way it used to. In fact, if done improperly, it can be
detrimental to you.
WOW, that’s quite a shift in the online marketing world!
It just goes to show that you have to be constantly on
your toes when doing business online.

You’ve probably felt some of the frustration with
marketing your services online. This is why Marnie is
putting together a panel of successful entrepreneurs to
share what’s working and what’s not in the ever-shifting
online marketplace. She’s invited me to participate
on this panel and share what works for me in my business.

If you’re trying to find new clients online, you definitely
want to attend this call coming up Wednesday,
December 12, 2012. It will be recorded. So even if you’re
busy and can’t attend live, be sure to register for the audio.

See you there!

April 28th is World Tai Chi Day!

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Did you know every year there is a day set aside for celebrations, demonstrations, and classes all about a special form of exercise?  And that YOU can take part in these celebrations?  I’m talking about World Tai Chi & Qigong Day which is held on the last Saturday of the month every April.  This even begins at 10 am in every timezone, creating a healing wave around the world!

To see where the celebrations nearest you are taking place go to the official WTCQD website: www.worldtaichiday.org

For more information from me about Tai Chi you can visit my site: www.TaiChiFlow.com where you find easy to follow DVDs and lots of articles about what Tai Chi is and what it can do for you!

Here’s a little more about this ancient art:

Health Benefits

Tai Chi and qigong’s health benefits have been studied for nearly 2,000 years in China and for only about 20 years in the west. However, western medical research is quickly discovering what Chinese medicine has long realized, that Tai Chi provides more benefits than any other single exercise. No wonder it is the most popular exercise in the world! Besides providing the lowest weight bearing exercise known, regular practice of Tai Chi can also:

  • Boost the immune system
  • Slow the aging process
  • Help ensure full range of mobility
  • Enhance body’s natural healing powers
  • Speed heart attack recovery
  • Increase breathing capacity
  • Reduce asthma and allergy reactions
  • Reduce risks of falls in elderly
  • Improve grip strength in elderly
  • Slow bone loss
  • Improve posture
  • Sharpen mental focus
  • Reduce anxiety
  • Improve coordination
  • Help with ADD and ADHD
  • Increase flexibility
  • Awaken energy
  • Improve balance TWICE as well as anything else known
  • Lower high blood pressure and heart rate
  • Help with gastric disturbances Reduce joint pain of arthritis, rheumatism, and fibromyalgia
  • Provide cardiorespiratory conditioning
  • Ease back pain
  • Stimulate circulation
  • Enhance muscle tone
  • Help with weight loss
  • Reduce amount of stress hormones
  • Calm central nervous system
  • May help with MS
  • Alleviate stress response
  • Promotes quiet mindfulness
  • Limber up joints

 

Tai Chi can change what the world looks like for us by changing our view of it. After all, our health and our lives are merely reflections of our state of mind. As the body and breath move, so does the mind, clearing energetic blocks that normally lock us into fixed emotional and psychological patterns. This empowering “meditation in motion” reminds us that change is always constant and that new beginnings always follow closures.
