Taking selfies are totally different from when you have someone using a real camera and starts snapping away. Camera shy is a thing for me but Viki and Kiera got me to be my true self. Happy, silly, awkward, and full of smiles.

Thank you and Kiera Kaufman for capturing these moments.

LOVE just isn’t a word for one day, it is for everyday. LOVE just isn’t a word but yet a feeling. This word is even sometimes difficult to say. It can even represent something different to each individual.
❤️
What is important is the LOVE you have for yourself. Self Love is the key for that LOVE around you. Once you are able to LOVE yourself, it changes the LOVE that you give to others and even accepting LOVE in return.
❤️
Scream out loud, “I LOVE MYSELF.” Over and over until you believe it and know it. Then take a look in the mirror and Smile! Then share those loving Smiling moments with another.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Happy Valentine’s Day!!! Sharing my LOVE and Smiles with YOU!

In this salt cave, you will be surrounded by six tons of pure pink Himalayan salt. This micro-climate environment is ionized and saturated with a low v***r concentration of Himalayan salt. As the salt air is inhaled, it travels through the respiratory system providing relief for those with sinus and breathing ailments such as Asthma and Bronchitis.

Oh and I can’t forget laughter, kindness and to wake up and start again to see where the moments take me.

Be present in all that you do. Maybe move with some ease and grace. I know that can be a challenge in itself. Along with the many challenges around us. Focus on the moment so it can be enjoyed and that you aren't missing that something that is important.
☀️
Our mind and body is always moving towards the next thing without being here and finishing what has begun.
☀️
I truly enjoyed being in this moment in these pictures. No stress, no pressure and I appreciated every second of it. Being able to be me.
☀️
Thank you and for this time to explore in this space capturing such moments.
☀️
Be yourself in what you do and how you move throughout life.

Truly grateful for the moments. Every is a new experience along with some amazing connections between the guests and the surroundings. At times there is uncertainty with doing something new and unfamiliar, but with the support and strength of us together it becomes a success. Each guest has their own reason for being present and attending Strength and Serenity Retreats.
☀️
A big thanks for our private chef .k.flanagan for adding his touch to these moments.
☀️
An additional thanks to Lisa and Shawna of for an addition to our gift bags along with visiting us.
☀️
Hope you can find a reason to join us to next time.

I’m always grateful for the opportunities that are presented.

See you there!

Happy Autumn!!! Embracing this change with open arms and continued high energy.
💐☀️
This change that occurs can be so peaceful as we see the leaves change colors and then shed from the trees leaving them bare. Normal to shed the excess and to allow ourselves to rest, connect and continue being present with what life offers.
🌻☀️
Living life to the fullest as much as we can. Being grateful for the abundance in our life and finding a balance with all.
💐☀️
Let go of the past, don’t stress about what is to come but feel being in the here and now!

“How about doing a sunrise photo shoot?” she said. Well that means to be up early before the sun even rises. Haha Since I am up late the sunrise time appears usually while I am still asleep.
😴
I must say a big BIG THANKS to Viki and Steven for making it happen. It was such an amazing experience to see the day begin, and to be part of the beauty around.
🙏✨
The fascinating sky, amazing reflections along with me here being awake/present☺️, captured in a photo brings to me a place of gratitude.
☀️
Everything around so truly peaceful I can’t even explain how I felt other than at ease with my life along with all of its offerings. Being here and now.
☀️💕☀️
I will definitely view another sunrise to see and feel the day begin.
☀️🌼🌸
I can even say the seagull, fish and gnats played a wonderful part in the morning experience as well.
🙏

Just like that it is September 1st!
Happy Friday! Happy September! Be present in the moments. Allow today to be the start of something new along with finding gratitude.
You have got this.
Have a great day!

Allow yourself to move freely, like the flow of water through a waterfall. Keep on moving, never stop or give up, don’t look back to question or compare but be Here and Now!
☀️
This side angle is bound but still constantly moving with breath to go deeper. Heart lifting, feet grounding, legs engaged and knowing Mother Nature is around full of life, strength, vibrant beauty, sharing all that she has.
☀️
We are this small piece of all that is in life so make it the best, enjoy it to the fullest and know that you can bring yourself to your greatest potential along with happiness. Smile, laugh and share that with others.
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

It was a beautiful morning for Vinyasa in the Vines (Yoga & Wine tasting) at Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard . I am truly for Mother Nature being kind to us and for those who were able to share in the experience.
☀️
I love connecting with nature and to have a yoga practice in it brings an energized feeling of being present in life.
🧘‍♀️🍇🍷
A big thanks to the BHF staff for adding to these moments.

Enjoy the moments as you are present!
.creagh.1

Continue being who you are but always find room for growth while embracing change.
☀️💕
Be silly at times, laugh in many moments and move freely throughout life. It’s sometimes our self that holds us back.
☀️❤️☀️
Always be present for what is here now and behold to what the moments ahead bring!

We sometimes get caught up with the words (negativity/judgement) from others which can be heavy and overwhelming throughout time.
☀️🌼
Allow yourself to not absorb but to accept those for whom they are and adding in forgiveness too. As long as you can personally do this it will make a difference.
🙏💕☀️
This gives that feeling of lightness and freedom. The feeling where you can keep taking that next step to always move forward. The freedoms to be yourself. Being present moving one moment at a time. Step by step….
Smiles along the way. It can be done.
❤️☀️💕

Happy International Yoga Day/Summer Solstice!
🌼🧘‍♀️
Yoga has brought me to many places mentally and physically. Remember it isn’t just that pose that you get to do balancing on your hands, or the backbend & bind that maybe not every body can get into, it is the feeling, mindset, presence of that moment and those challenges of being able to let go so you can go deeper in sitting in stillness, breathing with control and ease. There is a bundle of goodness in it that you experience one step….day…..moment at a time. Remember it is a life practice/journey so no judgment on where you are in it. Be proud to begin, feel good and just embrace it all.
🙏☀️
I am truly grateful of my knowledge/experiences and the ability of sharing it with others.
🌼🌺☀️
Thank you Mother Nature as well for the beauty that you present to us through all seasons. Enjoy this season for what it brings.
