Avocado & Cucumber Rolls wrapped in toasted sushi nori sheets with a creamy SunButter Sauce. Perfect for a date night meal!
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I never really got back to “normal” after the pandemic.
I didn’t really need to, because my normal can be working in pajamas in the comfort of my own home.
Outside of teaching yoga once a week, climbing, and heading to our favorite coffee shop every Saturday, I otherwise don’t *need* to venture out.
During the pandemic, my house became my safe space, my place of work, and my workout studio.
I stopped attending hot yoga at the local studio (something at the time I couldn’t imagine living without), and started practicing exclusively at home.
So it was rather magical this weekend, when I attended my first hot yoga class in over 5 years during my 300 hr YTT program.
Sitting in an easy seat chanting with a chorus of of “OM” vibrating around me, tears prickled behind my closed eyelids.
THIS, I thought, is what yoga is about.
It’s nothing short of magical and it’s about me but it’s also about embodiment inside of community.
While I’m grateful for my strong personal practice at home, I’m remembering what drew me to yoga classes in the first place.
I’m so glad that I ventured outside of my comfort zone to learn, grow, and connect again; it’s been a while.
It’s also been a while since I’ve made sushi at home.
It’s interesting because sushi is both so simple and so complex at the same time.
It has a few parts that take some foresight, but if you take the time to plan, you’ll be very grateful that you did.
These Avocado & Cucumber Rolls are wrapped in toasted sushi nori sheets with a creamy SunButter Sauce.
It’s the perfect meal to make with others so dinner is a shared experience.
