Hello my lovely local friends!I’ve started hosting a small Christian yoga gathering at my house on Sunday evenings.It’s an energizing, all-levels flow with strength, stretching, and a few playful challenges. Each class has a short Bible reflection woven in and a time for sharing. It’s been such a beautiful way to move our bodies and reset before the week begins.I keep the group small (about 12 women) so it stays cozy and personal. Starting in April we’re moving into the Easter season and we’ll have a whole new series running all the way through Pentecost at the end of May! All the details:✨ Sundays at 6pm✨ First class complimentary + $15 after thatIf you’re local and want to join us, send me a message and I’ll save you a spot 🤍 by @milkandhoney_movements

I see you mama, struggling to remember who you were before kids and striving to step into the woman you want to be.Motherhood invites us into sacred shifts of sanctification. But it is so easy to got lost in diapers or laundry, then those things shift to sports and school events and parties and practices. It can seem like every moment of your day is dedicated to taking care of something for someone else or your household. But motherhood isn’t meant to consume us. Motherhood offers the journey to delve deeper into trusting God, abiding with Him in every moment of the day, and cultivating your gift of discernment.But motherhood isn’t where your life’s work ends. One of the most helpful things for me as a multi-passionate person is to continually seek examples of faithful mothers who have pursued their passions alongside of mothering, without sacrificing their ideals.I know if they can do it, I can too. If they can write a book, or start a ministry, or keep a career and show up as a mother, then I can too! How are you feeling in this season of motherhood? Drop a comment and let’s connect 🤍Sending all the love,Steph ✨Let your movements be a prayer ✨#milkandhoneymovements by @milkandhoney_movements

It’s difficult to find stillness in the fast-pace of our culture. Our minds have been habituated to fill every second with some novelty. Praying can feel difficult and even impossible when our minds are racing with thoughts. Our minds and our bodies are connected. Praying is a call to have the whole of ourselves caught up in God’s presence. If we cannot still our minds or the sensations in our bodies, then our prayer life is hampered.And yet, there can be a stillness in movement. Peace can be found in the moments when our body is on a kind of autopilot. This is why we have some of our best ideas in the shower, or washing dishes, or on long solo drives with nothing coming through the speakers. In giving our body, a ‘mindless task’ we create a space for the mind to be free. When I flow, I intentionally set a prayer intention for my practice. I let my spirit pray in the groaning too deep for words as I create space in my mind to be present with God. The movement itself is a prayer. Then, the opportunity for even deeper prayer comes at the end of my flow, when I’ve brought my mind into a state of focus and released all the pent-up things trapped in my body. Have you had experience with movement as a prayer? What’s it been like?All the love,StephLet your movements be a prayer! #milkandhoneymovements by @milkandhoney_movements

The number one thing you need to know before considering the question, can Christian’s practice yoga, is…Moving around on a mat is not yoga.Yes, we call it yoga, but it’s a misnomer. Yoga itself is a whole philosophical system and moving around on a mat is just one part of it that is supposed to help your body sit comfortably in stillness. Did you know this? Do you think Christians should practice yoga? ➡️Share your thoughts in the commentsLet your movements be a prayer! by @milkandhoney_movements

Everything changed. My movement practice became a triple fulfillment of physical, mental, and spiritual nourishment. I was in full time grad school getting my Masters in Philosophy while being married and raising two tiny humans. It was 2020-2022, peak pandemic years.My life felt like it was in a constant upheaval but I learned I could take every worry in my mind to my mat and that I would leave with peace.It doesn’t happen automatically though.I had a great teacher who would invite us to think of a place in life where we wanted to infuse some grace. So I started every practice with a prayer.Every part of my life that I felt like I was wrestling with God, I brought to those practices. They became a combination of prayer, journaling, and exercising.I didn’t always get a new insight in every practice, but I did always leave feeling at peace. The flow became a moving meditation where I could work things out with God.And now I have a beautiful way to connect with our Creator in prayer in every moment of every day. If you want to try a flow that nourishes your mind, body, and spirit comment THANKFUL and I’ll send you a link to a 1 hr long free class!Let every movement be a prayer ✨All the love,Steph by @milkandhoney_movements
