Welcome to the February newsletter! I hope this message finds you well! I have updates! First of all, I'm excited to announce that I've recently completed my Yoga Teacher Training Certificate and am now offering group classes in Washington, DC, and Montgomery County, MD. If your organization is looking for a yoga teacher, please don't hesitate to contact me! Let's calm and regulate our nervous systems together!
But that's not all - I have some more exciting news to share with you. I've been hard at work on a book that features short stories, poetry, and reflective prompts. The message of this book is all about coming into your own beautiful power, and it's a journey that I'm thrilled to share with you. I consider you all to be part of my community, and I'm grateful for your support in bringing this book to life.
As a special sneak peek, I'd like to share a poem from the book with you!
...
Under the Bridge
Under the bridge
Bringing all your favorite delights
The tart desserts
The savory pies
I engorge you with food from my plights
I sing you the same lullaby
Night after night
You drift away to my song
We lay in the mud
In the filth, in the sewage
Whispering all night long
But the time has come
To say goodbye
I’m on my way to the King
If I stay with you
I’d have to admit
I’d never amount to anything
So I’ll no longer be feeding you
Kissing these sticky lips
You will not
Dear troll
I’ve spent too much time with you
My divine worthiness, I forgot
You can’t have both.
So what are you feeding?

Challenges are a funny thing. Whether it's betrayal or conflict of any kind, when we learn how to work through them, they can become the fertilizer for a luxurious garden. And that's what this book is all about - using adversity to grow and nourish that garden of beauty and power within yourself. I'm excited for you to join me on this journey, as I truly believe that you are an essential part of it.
Thank you for walking this path with me. Your support means everything, and I'm honored to share this adventure with you. I look forward to sharing more updates on the book and other exciting news with you soon.
Your Sister in Beauty,
✨ Lana ✨
