December 21st marks the Winter Solstice. Although it is the darkest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, we also celebrate the return of light, as this day symbolizes the gradual return of lighter days.

In our Midlife Yoga class this week, we'll be marking the Solstice with a candle gazing meditation, known as Trataka. I'd love for you to join us (you can register here), but in case you can't, I'm including the full instructions & a 2-minute candle gazing meditation video.

Why not give it a try? Click here for the Trataka instructions & video.

You know what else says "holidays" to me? Dancing to some of my favorite Christmas Classics from decades gone by!

Head over to my YouTube channel to enjoy these 3 toe-tapping hits:

• Jingle Bell Rock
• Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree
• Last Christmas

The Midlife Yoga & Wellness newsletter will be on hiatus until the new year, so let me take this opportunity to wish you health, happiness, peace & love today and always.

Until next time,
