In this episode of Now by Creative Yoga, Cara Meade invites you to rediscover one of the simplest yet most powerful forms of self-care: stretching. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or just trying to peel yourself off the couch, this episode is your gentle reminder that movement is for every body.

We’ll explore why stretching matters—beyond flexibility—and how mindful, intentional movement can reduce tension, improve posture, and reconnect you with your breath and body. Plus, Cara guides you through a short seated or standing stretch practice you can do anywhere.

Because it’s not about touching your toes—it’s about showing up.
Listen in, stretch it out, and feel the difference.

On June 21—the Summer Solstice and International Day of Yoga—yogis around the world rise to greet the light. In this special episode, Cara Meade explores the meaning of this sacred day, the power of 108 Sun Salutations, and guides you through a short solstice meditation.

In this episode, we explore the simple yet profound practice of presence, and how summer offers us a natural invitation to slow down, savor, and truly be here now.

From the golden stretch of evening light to the soft rhythm of waves and warm skin against a towel, summer is rich with moments that call us back to our senses. But in a world that rushes, how do we reclaim our attention?

Join me for a gentle reflection on presence, the beauty of doing less, and a short, summer-inspired meditation to ground you in the here and now—where life is already unfolding.

Let’s make this a season not of busyness, but of embodied joy.
