Welcome to Fall My Friends,
Happy birthday to me! You are a gift. In juvenile hall we said each class "yoga is a gift, no one can take that away from you." This means the wisdom you learn and grow from a trauma informed yoga practice, mindfulness and meditation, resonates within. Nothing on the outside can bring peace, it is within you. And can be found anywhere, in any circumstance. Today I am celebrating big changes on the horizon and new opportunities. The biggest gift I can give to myself (and ultimately others) is the commitment to show up in authenticity and grace, surrendered in alignment and listening to the quiet voice within that guides my soul’s deep passion, mission and service. This is the way I’m honoring my teachers, guides and mentors. My spiritual lineage of wise ones holding space for me to grow. It’s meaningful to me that I acknowledge and give thanks for all and see the progress of maturity. Especially for all the challenges and painful lessons. I’m grateful to be exactly where I’m at today, accepting my own “Deep Shift” and working with those looking to embrace their own personal shift. Click below to schedule a call to join us next month 10/30/21. Or just to connect and see how we might work together. This Saturday please come say hi to us in person at the https://homeboyindustries.org Homeboy Industries 5K! We have a booth and will be offering the warm up yoga stretch to the amazing runners! Sadly we lost our dear friend, and very first UpRising Yoga Ambassador, Suzanne Hansen. She passed away due to Covid at the age of 72. In honor of Suzanne I wanted to share some photos below and her blog. Suzanne has kept me going in tough times and I will miss her dearly. I know many of us are grieving now and my heart is with you. Please stay in touch as I plan to share more incredible news next month, as I embark on offering services to help make this world a better place. With Blessings, Jill Weiss Ippolito, Founder & Director, UpRising Yoga

"In this episode, Christi Anne Bela and Jill Weiss Ippolito discuss "the importance of Trauma Informed Yoga Life Skills and how it serves incarcerated youth and communities." Catch it on Spotify, Itunes, GooglePlay, VoiceAmerica.com" VoiceAmerica
I'm honored to be interviewed by Christie Anne Bela on her show 'Unbuckled'. We talk about the early beginnings of UpRising Yoga 10 years ago (!), and how by working with her, made our outreach so memorable and impactful. Please take a listen, it was an incredible conversation about our learning experiences of CSEC in juvenile hall, violence in the camps and challenges the unhoused youth face in and out of incarceration plays a role in our teaching and ultimately how our training model can be utilized in any setting. #traumainformed #mentalhealth #leadership #community #podcast#mentalhealthawareness #juvenilejustice #prisonyoga #socialservices#traumasensitive #traumainformedyogatraining #recovery#leadershipdevelopment #inspiration #suicideprevention #youth Take a refreshing break with me. In this 2 Minute Soothing Mindful Meditation you will feel more connected to your breath and heartbeat and feel a liberating sense of ease. Thank you for joining me. I promise you, by taking this short brief action as a deliberate intention to feel better you have instantly set in motion your desire for a better way to live. That one simple motion towards your health can be a true life saver. Taking a conscious inhale and exhale celebrates your life and can guide you towards appreciation for the present moment. Even if this sounds like a small act, as we naturally breathe in and out as living beings, adding your intention to deepen your breath and the awareness of your body, your heartbeat in your chest, the air that surrounds you...when we begin to allow our feelings to be, we embrace a moments change. That shows that every moment is an opportunity to change and there is a significant chance you will feel better. Hang on, you got this! Hello Friends!

Congratulations to the recent URY Graduates! During a pandemic 21 activists showed up to learn how to be more trauma informed with yoga life skills! Some had to evacuate from the fires. One logged in from Singapore and others will watch the videos to complete their certification. I’m touched, moved and impressed by everyone who made this happen. From the speakers who devoted their time to share their expertise and knowledge to the students ready to bring what they learned back to their communities, I thank you. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you. Let’s all go forth and bring more love into this world. So excited about September, lots of important things happening and it's my birthday month! I'm happy to announce that I will be offering an in depth training program for a limited number of participants. This will be online, super fun and informative! To find our more click HERE and I'll reach out to you. Let me know if you are interested in hosting a URY Trauma Informed Yoga Training Virtually or collaborating to bring classes to your community.
