I’ve received many thoughtful calls and texts asking if I’m okay and wondering why I’ve been away from teaching. I’m okay, and I appreciate everyone checking in. I thought I’d share why I’m taking some time away and what I’m doing with this pause.
I’m taking personal time to tend to a few things of my own, including a couple of minor health things that need attention. Nothing serious or to worry about, just a reminder to slow down, take care of myself, and give my body time to rest and recharge.
I’m grateful to have Heidi and Robin stepping in and keeping our Pulse community moving, breathing, and connected while I’m away. Knowing Pulse is in such wonderful hands makes this time easier.
I’m also using this time for something that has been calling to me: continuing my education in addiction and recovery through Y12SR, Yoga of 12 Step Recovery.
Y12SR brings together the wisdom of yoga with the tools of the 12 Step recovery model, using movement, breath, mindfulness, connection, and embodied practices as support along the recovery journey.
This is something that keeps finding its way back to me. We live in a time when so many people and families are touched by addiction, and I believe we need more spaces for support, compassion, connection, and healing.
This is personal for me, too. I have watched people I love struggle with addiction. Some have found recovery, some are still fighting and finding their way, and some have sadly lost their lives to it. I’ve seen and felt how deeply addiction affects the people who love them. Those experiences have stayed with me and are a big part of why I feel called to learn more and find meaningful ways to support others.
I don’t know exactly where this training will lead yet, and I’m okay with that. I simply know it’s something I feel called to explore and something I hope, in time, to bring into the work I do and the beautiful community I serve.
For now, I’m taking time to rest, recharge, learn, and grow. I’m looking forward to being back teaching around the middle of October, refreshed, inspired, and thankful to Heidi and Robin for keeping Pulse flowing while I’m away.
Much Love,
Jenny XO🧘♀️
