Hi! I'm Kerry!

Summer in the Berkshires has arrived!

Published 4 months ago • 4 min read

Happy June!

It is almost officially Summer in the Berkshires -- maybe it is near you too? I have definitely been feeling the influx of people and energy in the Berkshires. It is equal parts exhilarating and energizing as it is exhausting and overwhelming. As a small business owner that relies on tourism, I have to remind myself to take a pause from time to time and TRULY enjoy the summer, not just keep plugging away because the opportunities are endless.

So, in case you're like me and need the reminder to slow down, here it is! (LOL)

As we enter the summer season, I have a few promises that I want to keep for myself and I wanted to share them with you, maybe for accountability, maybe they inspire you, maybe they are silly!

My Summer 2026 Promises/Intentions/Goals

Jump in the lake weekly:)

Write more-- on substack, my newsletter, my journal, on a napkin, anywhere

Remember to take days off of email

FIND JOY... even in the mundane

Put my body first (or at least not last): IE: don't skip the workout or the meal for just one more email.

This are things I return to weekly, monthly and yearly as things I seek in my life and things I endlessly struggle with. These are things I encourage my clients and patients and students to do, yet, I don't always remember to do. Let's just say, I'm a work in progress. Do you have any intentions for this summer? I'd love to hear them.

On another note, this weekend is the Summer Solstice and I hope to celebrate with a fire pit and some time outdoors. I wanted to share with you some of my favorite ways to celebrate the Summer Solstice. I wrote a blog about it a few years ago and I hope you enjoy it.

I have a few things in the pipeline that I am working on behind the scenes and trying to ffather interest. Ranging from yoga teacher continuing educations to pelvic health resources to yoga classes.

If you are interested in learning more about your pelvic floor and pelvic health, please drop your email below.

If you are a yoga teacher looking to learn more about anatomy, fascia, creative sequencing, pelvic floor and more, please fill out this google form AND drop your email below

As we all head into a busier season of life, I hope to still pop into your inbox and share some of the magic of the world and your body with you. If you have some joy to share, I would LOVE to hear from you, hit reply and share with me all the magic in your life!

Sunset Yoga at Naumkeag

Berkshire Friends! Come Flow with Us!

There’s something magical about practicing yoga beneath the open sky. The way the breeze carries your breath, how the light shifts as you move, and the grounding that only comes from being held by the earth itself.

At Naumkeag, we move with the setting sun—bathing in golden light, surrounded by historic gardens and sweeping views of the Berkshires. It’s a time to unwind, to exhale the day, and to soften into stillness as the sky turns to watercolor.

Bring your mat, your heart, and your love for nature. This year you will see a few of my teachers at Yoga Lee (myself included) at Naumkeag. I will always be posting on the Yoga Lee instagram who is up for the week! We can’t wait to share these special outdoor practices with you. 💛

Want to Retreat With Me?

I took a pause on planning retreats as I dealt with some personal things but I am so excited to get back into the swing of planning some amazing Experiences. I am in the midst of planning a few magical things. Late fall, I am hopeful to host a Berkshire Based Yoga Retreat with options for locals to join in at a lower cost. I am also collaborating with a few special woman to host a winter retreat in the Berkshires. LAst but not least, I am looking to host an international Yoga retreat in 2027. I am debating between Tuscany, Italy, Costa Brava, Spain OR going back to the Azores-- What do you think friends? Shoot me an email back with your preference. AND Don't forget to put your name on the waitlists below so you are the FIRST to know!

Join me on Substack!

I have a lifelong dream of being a writer. I am a lover of books and journals and documenting my life. I think that is why I originally loved instagram. But now, IG feel so... strange and a blog doesn't feel personal enough and I miss the days of tumblr I feel like I have finally gotten into somewhat of a groove on substack-- I am sharing both thought pieces as well as some poetry I have written over the years.

This is a new and vulnerable (and exciting) endeavor for me! I hope you join with me with curiosity and kindness!

I'd love to hear from you too-- what would you like to learn from me?

P.S. I renamed my substack to feel more ME! here's to embracing my true self more!

As the Wheel Turns.. September is one of my favorite months in the Berkshires. After the hub bub and chaos of summer, September is such a blessing. September feels like a fresh start but without the pressure of new years resolution. September feels like an old friend that always has time for a chat and a cup of tea. September feels like a big, long exhale after running around all day. The energy of September is equal part rest and cozy and magnetic and energized and...I very much love it. But...

As we say Goodbye to July... July has flown by (as it usually does here in the Berkshires). On one hand, I am happy to see July in the rearview. I often forget that living and owning small business in the Berkshires means I don't sit down or even have a second to breathe from June 15th to July 15th. It's a beautiful and abundant time but it is also a chaotic and sometimes stressful time. It aligns well with the natural world... nature is blooming with abundance and activity. On the other...

Happy July! Summer is kicking in the Berkshires and the warm weather has me wishing I was on a floatie in the middle of the ocean somewhere some days. At the same time, I do love Berkshire summer-- the sunsets, the lake, the garden. It's what I look forward too all winter. I think it's important in the joy (and chaos) of summer to slow down too. To soak in all the natural world has to offer and to have some days to just be. I'm not quite sure where that fits into my summer plans but I do know...
