I'm a Yoga Teacher, Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist, Author, Speaker, Dreamer, Mother, World’s Most Detail-Oriented Editor and Recovering Perfectionist.

Hey, there!
I'm Julie.

Like you, I’m more than just ONE thing. I want to help you maximize your time on this earth by helping you protect your peace through creating a sustainable and invigorating lifestyle.

If you crave a life that’s less stressful, busy and complicated, you’re in the right place here on JulieGtheYogi.com.

To your optimal health and longevity,

Julie

Here’s a reminder you might need (I know I do):

You don’t have to do it all today (or ever). You don’t have to have it all figured out. You don’t need to check off everything on your to-do list. You don’t need to hustle nonstop.

You’re allowed to slow down and rest even when there are still a million more things to do.

Self-love isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about freedom. And self-care gives you that freedom and permission to loosen the grip on the pressure that comes from others and from within.

Feeling this, too? Drop a 💛 and tag a friend who has been too hard on themselves lately.

Feeling completely scattered and stressed? I get it. Those are the two main things I feel when I skip my yoga practice. 🕉️

Why is it so easy to get consumed in chaos when we know we desperately need a reset?

Are you over feeling exhausted, stressed and unmotivated? Maybe you’ve tried everything and nothing seems to change. 😣

It wasn’t until I discovered my dosha (mind-body type) that I understood why I was feeling the way I was feeling.

Once you know your dosha, everything about what you think you know about optimal health will change. 💫

Ayurveda, yoga’s sister science, will help give you the answers you’ve been looking for and get you on track to feeling better soon. ✨

Whether you’re vata 💨 pitta 🔥 or kapha 🌎, knowing your dosha can bring more balance into your life for the long haul! ⚖️

Ready to discover your dosha? Take the quiz at www.juliegtheyogi.com/dosha-quiz.

What if 1 minute of stillness could change your whole day and eventually your entire life? When I began meditating every morning a decade ago, I instantly noticed a shift. One of clarity and connection to myself and the universe. It was undeniable and magnetic. 🧘🏻‍♀️

Meditation isn’t about pushing all your thoughts out of your mind, it’s about showing up for yourself and observing those thoughts with kindness and compassion. It’s one of those things you have to experience for yourself, and once you do, you’ll notice profound and infinite results. ✨

Start with 1 minute today. Less time than it takes to brush your teeth. ⏰ 🪥

Taking that first breath the moment you were born is one of the most amazing things that will ever happen to you. The gift of prana and life force. 🎁

Now you take about 20,000 breaths a day. But do you ever think about your breath outside of a yoga class, trying to catch it in the middle of cardio exercise or when you have a stuffy nose? 🧘🏻‍♀️

I can teach you how to take more quality breaths by tuning into each inhale and exhale. Take a class with me @bloomingdaleparkdistrict (online and in-person options). Plus, share your favorite breathing exercise in the comments below. Mine is Alternate Nostril Breathing! So calming and grounding morning or night! 🕉️

🕉️ Calm the mental chatter
🧘🏻‍♀️Boost clarity
☮️Reduce stress

My first yoga class was at a YMCA in 2008. During my first-ever Savasana in that class, I knew I would one day teach yoga. After class, I went home, ate dinner and read my horoscope and it referenced yoga! 🕉️

This magical journey of practicing and teaching yoga has unfolded into a wonderful world of self-study, understanding and perspective, and has changed my life forever. 💫

You can have your own yoga story, too. ✨

It all starts with one breath.

New year, new goals to help make your dreams come true. Creating a vision board before the start of every year is one of my very favorite things to do just before ringing in the new year to manifest my goals and dreams.

I’ve been doing this at the end of December for the last 7 years. During this time, I’ve published 2 award-winning books, completed my 500-hour yoga teacher training and became an Ayurvedic yoga specialist. You can manifest your dreams into reality, too!

Save this post as inspiration for your own vision board! What’s the first step you’re taking toward reaching your goals in 2025?

#VisionBoard #VisionBoards #VisionBoard2025 #VisionBoardGoals #ManifestingDreams

One of my FAVORITE days of the year: our exclusive annual sister Vision Board Workshop. We create. We manifest. We envision. We DREAM BIG.

Vision boards are the true manifestation of where the “woo meets the work.” They’re a MUST if you’re serious about setting goals.

Double-tap if you believe in the power of manifestation. What’s one thing you’re manifesting in 2025?

#VisionBoard #VisionBoards #VisionBoard2025 #VisionBoardGoals #VisionBoardParty #ManifestingDreams #GoalGetterMindset

Before the vision, it was just a board. I have been leading an exclusive vision board workshop with my sisters every December for the last 7 years to help manifest our goals into reality. If you’re serious about setting goals, these boards are pure magic.
