Embracing the Winds of Change in 2024
Jessica Otieno | JAN 17, 2024
Hello Cherished Soul.
I hope this message finds you well, and I trust that your New Year's celebrations were filled with warmth, reflection, and hope. As we venture into 2024, I can't help but reflect on the transformative journey that was 2023.
Bidding Farewell to 2023:
I don't know about you, but I was more than ready to bid adieu to 2023. It was a year of profound growth, and as we all know, growth can be uncomfortable. Yet, it's in those moments of discomfort that we often discover our true strength. So, I welcomed the lessons and experiences of 2023 with open arms, even though they were sometimes accompanied by exhaustion and challenges. It was a year that demanded much from us, but it also gave us the gift of growth and resilience.
A Shift in the Air:
As the calendar turned to January, I sensed a shift on the horizon. While I couldn't quite define it at the time, I knew change was coming. Sometimes, these shifts are subtle and slow, like the changing of seasons. It's challenging to pinpoint them as they happen, but they are no less significant.
Welcoming 2024 with Hope and Faith:
With hope and a healthy dose of fear, I embraced the arrival of 2024. I knew it held promise, even if that promise was veiled in uncertainty. And so far, it hasn't disappointed.
Community Building and Growth:
In the first half of January, we embarked on a new journey right here in our private studio. We welcomed four new teachers to our community, and together, we've been setting intentions for this sacred space. Our shared focus is on self-discovery and self-healing, using yoga as a vehicle to raise our consciousness. It warms my heart to see this space, once solely mine, becoming a second home for others. It's a testament to the power of community and shared purpose.
The Magic of Aura & Chakra Readings:
I recently had the pleasure of participating in the first Psychic Fair of 2024 at the Blue Barn in Roswell. It was a record-breaking weekend for Aura & Chakra mini-readings. I'm utterly enthralled by the opportunity to help people recognize themselves as the beings of energy that we are. These readings offer glimpses into our chakras and auras, providing valuable insights for self-reflection, consciousness, and spiritual growth.
Collaboration and Manifestation:
In 2024, we've already seen the fruits of collaboration. Our first retreat of the year, the Manifestation Mastery retreat, was a tremendous success. Partnering with Annmarie Grenga of Enchanted Minds LLC and the brilliant Naomi Morad, we explored powerful manifestation techniques in conjunction with the Chakra roadmap. The experience was nothing short of magical. Annmarie and I have big plans to refine and expand on this, and the energy around it is palpable. It's that feeling when you know you're on the right path, and the universe seems to conspire in your favor.
An Inner Shift:
Alongside these external shifts, I've noticed an inner transformation. I find myself better able to identify my true desires, to commit to what truly matters, and to ground myself in my purpose. This newfound clarity has anchored me, providing stability even as external circumstances continue to change. It's allowed me to see my own worth and value in a crowded marketplace, reaffirming my belief in what I offer to the world.
The Gift of Pause:
After the bustling first half of January, I treated myself to a moment of pause and self-care. I attended Elissa's Restorative class right here at our private studio. It was a profound reminder of the importance of receiving, of simply being without the constant need for doing. I sipped hot chocolate, savored a quiet dinner, and allowed myself to luxuriate in the present moment. It was pure bliss.
Join Us in the Present:
If, like me, you've been caught up in the whirlwind of life, I invite you to pause for a few breaths. Join us in one of our classes throughout the week, whether it's a gentle slow flow, Yin, Restorative, or Meditation class. Fill your cup with moments of serenity and self-love.
Mystic Mag Interview:
I'm thrilled to share that I had the honor of being interviewed for Mystic Mag. This opportunity allowed me to delve deeper into my journey, my experiences, and my vision for the future. I'd be incredibly grateful if you took a moment to read it and share your thoughts with me.

As we navigate the adventures of 2024, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for each of you. You are the heartbeat of this community, and together, we're embarking on a beautiful journey of self-discovery and transformation.
With boundless love, light, and excitement for the path ahead,
Jess
