International Yoga Day

Per continuare il viaggio iniziato lo scorso anno con il nostro approfondimento dedicato alla

Giornata Internazionale dello Yoga

https://perfettamentechic.com/2025/06/21/giornata-internazionale-dello-yoga/

oggi … 21 giugno 2026, torna una delle ricorrenze più amate da chi cerca benessere, equilibrio e un pizzico di serenità nella frenesia quotidiana.

La Giornata Internazionale dello Yoga, istituita dalle Nazioni Unite nel 2014 e celebrata ogni anno nel giorno del solstizio d’estate, invita milioni di persone in tutto il mondo a stendere il tappetino e dedicare qualche minuto a corpo e mente. Anche nel 2026 il tema ufficiale è

Yoga for Healthy Ageing (“Yoga per un invecchiamento in salute”)

invito a riscoprire lo yoga come prezioso alleato per mantenersi attivi, flessibili e in forma a ogni età.

Dall’alba nei parchi cittadini alle lezioni gratuite sulle spiagge, passando per piazze, centri sportivi e iniziative online, anche in Italia non mancano eventi aperti a tutti: principianti, esperti e perfino chi pensa di essere “troppo rigido” per toccarsi le punte dei piedi! Del resto, lo yoga non è una gara di elasticità, ma un percorso personale fatto di respirazione, concentrazione e piccoli grandi progressi.

Se nel 2025 vi avevamo raccontato la storia e il significato di questa ricorrenza, nel 2026 il messaggio è ancora più attuale:

dedicare anche solo dieci minuti al giorno allo yoga può contribuire a ridurre lo stress, migliorare l’equilibrio e favorire il benessere psicofisico.

Perché, in fondo, il miglior esercizio è quello che ci fa stare bene… con un sorriso e senza fretta. Namasté! 🧘‍♀️🌿

Buona Giornata Internazionale dello Yoga!

Exciting news! I have placed an order with The Sound Journey Store in Lincoln ON for a Vibroacoustic Singing Bowl. This bowl was ethically made in their Nepalese foundry. Unlike my crystal singing bowls, this bowl was made to be placed on the body, to create a deeply relaxing and grounding experience. I can't wait to share this bowl as an additional offering!

Hip openers made me anxious despite years of practice.

Van der Kolk showed me muscles hold memory, bodies store trauma.

What has your body been trying to tell you through resistance or discomfort?

Dreading the January onslaught of messages demanding that you “fix” your body so it conforms to an unrealistic ideal based on racism?

Interested in hearing from under-represented voices in public health that share different messages?

Announcing the Shared Stories Society!

Starting January 16 join me online Friday afternoons from 3-4:30pm Pacific Time for “media club”. This program invites participants to explore under represented voices in public health. We will examine books, zines, and more across the year. Each session will include time for grounding and self-reflection in addition to group discussion of the materials.

January through February we’ll be reading Aubrey Gordon’s book, “What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat”, and learn how anti-fat bias harms not only fat people, but thin people as well.

While this is listed as being for adults 60+, if you’re an adult younger than 60 and want to participate, please sign up anyway! We’ve officially expanded it to 40+, but if this is what you need and over 20, consider joining, just know the conversation may be biased to post-menopausal people.
