See you later, summer !
Summer, it's been a pleasure. But I’m also so glad you’re over !
As a parent, two months of school break means being a full-time project manager for kids, camps, families, and vacations, it’s exhausting… And summer is just not my season as I’ve never been a fan of the heat (too much Pitta in my system, for those who know Ayurveda 😉).
I’m craving the rhythm of normal life again: daily workouts, healthier meals (less cheese please !!), and the grounding and energy that come with a routine. And honestly? I cannot wait to get back to work. I’ve missed teaching and I’ve missed you !
How about you ? are you ready for September, or wishing for an endless summer ?
Yoga classes in Lisbon resume next week ! Same schedule:
⭐️ Tuesday 18h15 -> Yin-Yang Yoga
⭐️ Wednesday 8h45 -> Mindful Flow
⭐️ Wednesday 10h30 -> Baby & Me
Still at Studio Organic Flow, in Campo de Ourique.
This year, I will be offering 3 different pricing options for group classes:
✨ NEW ! Unlimited yoga for the year - Commit to your practice and come to as many classes as you like in the next 11 months - 400€ (that’s less than 10€/class if you come once a week).
✨ 10-class packages (valid for 3 months, can be used for all classes) - 120€
✨ single drop-in - 16€
Private classes can also be scheduled upon request:
- in the comfort of your own home - 50€/hour
- at the studio, with all the equipment - 65€/hour
- online, if you’re not in Lisbon - 30€/hour
You can book everything on my website, right here.
Our theme for September will be Routine, not the boring kind, but the one that grounds and anchors us. See you on the mat !
2 things I loved this summer:
Love & Mercy, a 2014 biopic about the late Brian Wilson, the main brain behind the Beach Boys. An incredible story about genius, resilience and creativity with California as the backdrop, and a great soundtrack, obviously.
Good inside, by Dr Becky Kennedy. I listened to this parenting book during our long drives between Portugal, France and back. Upon spending the past few weeks almost full-time with my kids, I can say this has been a great resource for effective tools & techniques to stay sane in the face of tantrums and objections. It helped me remain patient, understanding and empathetic… most of the time ! Highly recommended for parents but really it’s for anyone dealing with humans, big or small.
Family retreat
I am excited to partner with Juliana from Mind the Mom for this 1-day family retreat on October 4th !
A gentle pause for the whole family to breathe, connect, and slow down together.
This one-day retreat is designed for mothers, partners, and children of all ages.
November retreat
I’m (finally!) finalizing the details for a wellness retreat in the Fall, in English !
I’ll be sharing more details soon, but most likely it’ll be a 3-night long weekend mid-November, in a wonderful venue not far from Lisbon…
Stay tuned !
Substack
Every month on Substack I publish a short essay about the ups and downs of family life abroad and living an embodied life.
The last one was about looking up, in Rome.
