Pause Before Moving Forward into 2026
I’ve been reflecting a lot on cycles lately.
2025, the Year of the Snake 🐍 felt like a long exhale.😮💨
Slowing down. Shedding layers. Listening inward.
Letting old skins fall away instead of forcing what wasn’t ready.
And now, as we move toward 2026, the Year of the Horse 🐎 , I can feel a new energy gathering.
Movement.
Momentum.
Forward motion.
Freedom.
What this year has taught me through Yin Yoga is something I don’t want to forget:
Sustainable movement doesn’t come from pushing harder. 😮
It comes from learning how to be still long enough for your nervous system to feel safe.
Yin has been my reminder that rest isn’t passive.
It’s preparatory.
It’s how the body learns trust before it learns speed.
I’m closing this year in deep gratitude for the pauses, the quiet recalibrations, and the wisdom that only reveals itself when you stay with the sensation instead of rushing past it.
Here’s to moving forward…
rooted, regulated, and ready. 🐎🤍
Happy New Year 🥳
