Oh Christmas Tree 🎵🎄

The countdown to Christmas is on- almost one week until the man in red comes!

What’s one thing you’re hoping is under the tree this year?

Hey there!
It’s been a while since I said hello

A year ago I discontinued our in person kids yoga classes due to COVID and I’ve waited patiently for the threat to pass.

I’m pleased to share that plans are underway to gather together again in the New Year in Niagara!

This time around there will be yoga, mindfulness + art focused on character building and learning mindful tools.

Official announcement 📢 is coming soon so be sure to check in often or send me a DM to hear all about it!

I can’t wait until we can practice together again!

Fill in the blanks!

Hey there! Happy Easter 🐣

It’s been a while since I’ve said hi!

Rachelle + Kids is a making a bit of a shift.

It’s been a long year of unknowns and my goal through it all has been to support child and family by offering free virtual programs when we were unable to facilitate in person classes.

This weekend I’m opening up virtual family studio!

A place where you and your little ones will find weekly yoga videos to keep your practice going at home together!

Membership is $12/month.

All you have to do is head to over the website and subscribe!

(If you have outstanding credits- please reach out to me to get free access to the studio for a limited time)

I look forward to practicing with you all!

Play well, be well + do well

I hope you and your families are enjoying the holiday season in safe ways this year!

To me, Mindfulness for children and youth simply means paying attention.

We are purposefully paying attention to our thoughts, feelings and what is happening around us.

We can pay attention when we are playing, riding our bike or going for a walk.

Head over to Mindful Niagara to see two of my favourite mindful breathing practices to help kids and youth move to a calm place!
