Yoga in the sand - the jump in the Gulf

All the years we've been practicing yoga on the beach, why haven't we reminded everyone the water is right here, waiting to refresh you! So this week I invite you to put on your swimsuits, throw a pair of shorts on and continue Savansana in the calm water.

Anyone who has practiced yoga outside dreams of practicing on the beach. We forgot to take advantage of our own backyard because we are creatures of habit.

I just got back from a family vacation from Michigan and we did it all! We cherry picked, lavender picked, wild flower picked, ate cherries in dressings, cookies, and drinks, visited the pigs and vineyards on the same farm, toured an insane asylum converted into a market and restaurants, hiked trails, went into Lake Michigan, went to 7 different townships in 1 day.....all the things most locals probably haven't done in a long time because it's in their own backyard.

When is the last time YOU went to the beach and you live here in Naples, how about practice beach yoga! Come on it's the summertime, more time for the Naples people to get out and about without crowds. It's actually my favorite time in Naples, other than yoga business slowing WAY DOWN...lol

So support this local economy, we are loosing so many places that can't withstand the summertime out of season numbers. Go out to your favorite restaurants with no wait, get into a local strip plaza and walk into stores you haven't frequented in awhile, Mercato, Coastland, Zoo, Botanical Gardens, old 41 Bonita Springs in so artsy and fun, Shangrila, hire neighborhood kids for odd jobs and babysitting, Support Kelly at Naples Electric Bikes and cruise downtown, come out to Lo's Yoga, or Paddleboard Yoga with Jodi at Wiggins Pass, MOD design for a new website with Jessica, Explore Naples Nature Perserves, Farmers Markets, rent a boat, Swim and Snorkel at River Park Aquatic Center, Visit the Minibar, Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary, Naples Pier, Clam Pass Park, Palm Cottage Museum, Edison Home.
