Hey, it’s Cha Wilde here. Today, I want to talk about the real-life challenges of sticking with your yoga practice, especially when your environment just isn’t cooperating. I’ve been there—some days it’s hard to find the motivation to get on the mat, and that’s okay. The key is adapting to whatever life throws your way and being kind to yourself, even if your practice is shorter or less intense than usual. It’s all about showing up for yourself, nurturing that relationship with your body, and celebrating the effort, no matter how small.

00:00:34Environmental Impact on Yoga Practice

Let’s be real—your surroundings can make or break your motivation to practice. Sometimes, everything feels perfect, and it’s easy to dive into your routine. But on other days, distractions or an uninviting space can make it tough. If you’re sensitive to your environment, you know how it can become a real obstacle, especially when you’re trying to build a new habit. But don’t worry, we can work through this together.

00:04:17Adapting to Circumstances

What’s amazing about us as humans is our ability to adapt. I like to think of adaptation as our superpower—it’s what allows us to navigate through all kinds of situations and still show up. Instead of stressing about having the perfect setup, I encourage you to just get on the mat, even if it’s just for a few minutes. It’s like maintaining a relationship with your body; acknowledging it, connecting with it, even if only briefly.

00:09:21Bite-Sized Yoga Practices

To help you out, I’ve been sharing short, under 15-minute yoga videos on my YouTube channel. These are designed to help you build momentum and stay connected with your body, whether you’re a beginner or just looking to re-establish your routine. You can stack these bite-sized practices together for a longer session or just enjoy them as they are.

00:11:59Integrative Approach

My approach is all about blending yoga asanas, Buddhist somatic meditation, and internal family systems therapy. This combination helps you explore your inner world, find peace within, and embrace all parts of yourself. I’m here to support you on this journey, so feel free to drop any questions in the comments or reach out to schedule a one-on-one session if you need more personalized guidance.
