This week we will be incorporating the Focus Effect with a strong and invigorating vinyasa practice. Vinyasa translates to “to place (the body) in a special way,” but the poses aren’t stagnant. They intelligently transition and flow to create balance and harmony within the practitioner. The poses are also linked to the breath, and this creates the mind-body connection. Vinyasa is paced faster than all the previous practices, but once you have these 10 steps down, you will feel stronger and more connected to yourself.
This week we are pairing the Care by Design effect “Rest gummies'' with a restorative yoga practice. This practice is unique because rather than flowing through many different poses and heating up our bodies in a more active practice, we passively hold poses for a longer duration in order to shift and retrain the body to shift from the sympathetic to the parasympathic nervous system.
The new Effects line from Care by Design has inspired me to create complimentary yoga sessions! Yoga also has many different forms and depending on your needs, there is a practice that is right for you. From an energetic and heating practice like Vinyasa and Ashtanga to slow and gentle classes such as yin and restorative, yoga fits every body. So, this month, I will bring you four different styles of yoga that can be paired perfectly to each specific Care By Design Effects formula to help you feel amazing during and after the session.

Traditionally, the yoga asana-s (postures) are practiced on a mat with a teacher guiding the practice. As my personal practice grew, I realized that yoga can be incorporated into many different aspects of my life. The practice that happens off the mat has transformed me in so many ways. I practice breathing when I drive to quell road rage, pause and stretch during hikes to reduce joint pain and practice around incredible scenery while taking in all the magic that happens in the great outdoors.
Start your day at the beach and end it in the mountains! Southern California is one of the few places where you can surf and ski on the same day, and it’s truly one of the greatest things about living here. Now that winter is upon us, here are a few spots in our sunshine state where you can enjoy the snow without the actual work of living in it. Depending on where you live, and when travel is possible, these fun spots are just far enough to feel like a getaway, yet close enough to make it a weekend trip!
