Moving mindfully, and helping you expand possibilities.
Yoga teacher…. Sure. Mindset coach… probably. Energetic healer… yeah I’m that too. Either way, rich in life because I get to do these things I love and help others. by @mindfully_jasmine

Been feeling nostalgic for travel these days. Discovering tiny moments in Marche, Italy. Blooming jasmine, lavender fields, and time spent with incredible women @villaolivomarche #travel #marché #italy by @mindfully_jasmine

The art of looking up…the art of living fully… is indeed a practice and a skill. It takes time, attention, curiosity and the ability to stay present in the moment. Exploring north west Ireland and all its magic, was a practice in exactly that. #donegal #ireland #travel #staypresent by @mindfully_jasmine

Two things can be true at the same time… I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately. And how growth isn’t linear. How our brains can sometimes trick us into thinking that staying in the same comfortable familiar box is best… that it will keep us safe. And that can be true sometimes… but if you feel the pull to something more…bigger… something different your heart keeps yearning for. Give your (higher) self a chance. Behind the fear, lies freedom. by @mindfully_jasmine

I was drinking 40s, smoking Newports and doing stupid things 30 years ago… somehow I made it out alive and now and I’m doubling down on my healing!!! Thank god. Sound on for actual audio of our hip hop pasta making party overlooking the most beautiful vista in Cititanova, Italy. Our retreat chefs were insanely talented and also the most patient with our crazy group! Keeping it real, all day every day!

You are enough. You have enough. You do enough. And if this feels hard to believe today…. Just let it simmer as a concept, and maybe just notice one tiny way you can be kinder to yourself. 💛 ( not sorry) by @mindfully_jasmine

Travel is one of the greatest, and fastest ways to wake us up out of our current reality. It’s a reminder: the world is bigger than just the corner we live in. It is medicine for the mind,
body and soul. Missed a flight? Perfect. Got lost? Even better. Those are the nuggets of gold! When we are out of our comfort zone and we figure out a way back. Travel is challenging- no doubt… but worth it every single time. Scotland, 2024, with my whole Strain clan. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✈️ by @mindfully_jasmine

I went to Italy for a women’s reiki retreat. I convinced my dear sister to go with me. I was scared to go alone. I had lost myself. I lost my connection to my voice and my power. And my anxiety was at an all time high. Thinking back to all the ways I had been forcing parts of my life to work, ignoring my intuition, ignoring my inner child….no wonder I felt lost and depleted. No wonder I had vertigo and ocular migraines, tinnitus and jaw pain. That year I had 2 MRIs, EKG testing, blood work, appointments with ENTs and multiple doctors. All of the tests came back normal. No one could pinpoint my symptoms… it wasn’t until I stopped everything, let go of all the things I was forcing, slowed down, listened to myself, and went back to practicing yoga and meditation that things started to get better. And slowly I made my way back to myself… I hope I never get that lost again, that disconnected from myself. And if I start to feel that way…. I now have tools and a community to support me. And there’s always another trip to Italy if necessary !!!!!@intuitivesoul_coachingretreats by @mindfully_jasmine

Inhale shift forward, exhale hug the elbows in and slowly lower down half way… 😫😳 real talk : I used to HATE this cue and yoga move because it felt impossible for me. So I began keeping my knees lowered in plank until I built my arm strength up. Keeping the integrity of the alignment in my spine, but using a modification. Now ( a whole year later!) I can flow through high plank and it feels so goooooood! Mood lifted every time! Thanks for a great class @justbwellllc ! by @mindfully_jasmine

Recently I’d been feeling a lot of “ not enoughness”, a lot of self doubt, a lot of negative self talk… And then this song came to be out of the blue, and it got stuck in my head. I started humming it, all the time, and then singing it over and over. I even played it in one of my classes. And then I realized… this was Spirit delivering a very specific message!! Slow down Jasmine, you’re doing fine! I did some research on the song and long story short, “Vienna” (the songs title)is Billy Joels metaphor for old age and purpose, belonging
and possibilities that can still exist as we get older. And while I’m not in my old age era yet ( girl, please!) I’m not taking any moments for granted.
There’s still so much I want to do.
And so much right here I don’t want to miss. So I ll keep kissing my children’s warm little heads, and keep dreaming of all the things that was still waiting for me. by @mindfully_jasmine

I said what I said… Just do you baby! How many times have I second guessed things? Wondering if I’m too much, or not enough…or …. who cares ?! We are on a floating rock hurdling through space and we get to be here- living loving and experiencing. As long as it’s not hurting anyone, I say express yourself - and be yourself. That’s your greatest gift to your life and everyone in your life. Stay mindful friends! by @mindfully_jasmine

“The magic you’re looking for is in the work you’re avoiding.”

Sometimes that work is moving your body. Sometimes it’s getting quiet and letting yourself rest. Having the uncomfortable conversation. Speaking up for yourself.

For me lately, it’s been challenging myself physically and getting honest about how often I reach for sugar, alcohol, or a screen when I want to check out.

I’m not perfect. But I’m paying attention. Making little changes. Trying again.

I’m learning that the magic is in those little moments when I follow through for myself. Even when it’s uncomfortable. Even when I’d rather check out. Little by little, that’s how I’m finding my way. ✨ by @mindfully_jasmine
