Mellow Movements for Mind-Body Balance
In partnership with our friends at DKNY
Everything in our bodies—our emotions, energy systems, musculoskeletal structures—is intrinsically connected; when one element is off, the ripple effect can be felt throughout. The key to getting back into balance? Movement. And no, you don’t have to go for a prop-heavy, sweat-dripping workout to reap all the juicy, harmonizing benefits. Some of our favorite practices, made easily accessible by these brilliant practitioners, don’t require much more than a mat, a few feet of space, a sleek matching set (we see you, DKNY SPORT), and a willingness to tune in, turn on, and vibe out.
Go with the Flow
Catherine Eckeleme,
Movement and Embodiment Educator
Move and Breathe yoga and meditation, Open
“Usually, moments of gratitude slow me down and keep me still when life gets chaotic. But lately, I’ve been using gratitude as a path to keep me moving forward. I’m thankful for a healthy body that allows me to get up and move in a way that can shift my mind, my body, and my energy. I like to nurture my sense of balance by using movement to stay grateful and connected to what’s important.”

“In the morning, I sage and diffuse a mix of geranium and lemongrass essential oils to clear my space and set a positive intention for the day. My forever book is Living with Joy by Sanaya Roman: It’s a spiritual-practice essential. I open the book to any page and it gives me exactly what I need, always.”

“I discovered GYROKINESIS when I was recovering from a dance injury, and I was so inspired by the low-impact, whole-body approach to rehabilitation that I’ve been doing it for over twenty years. I’m normally on the road a lot and find I can do it in any hotel room: It’s portable, ideal for small spaces, and easy to adapt wherever you are. The undulating movements soften the fascia and melt away tension, leaving you with a delicious sense of freedom in your mind and body.”

“After dry brushing my body in the morning, I love to infuse the room with gorgeous, wild-crafted natural oils like frankincense, geranium, and bergamot peel before doing a Qigong one-through-ten meditation. It’s the perfect way to ground myself while elevating my surroundings.”
