We talked, we laughed, we cried… and the love was REAL!\n\n\"Aerie\n\n\"Aerie\n\nWe started each day with a little flow and a lot of fuel. At morning yoga, we set an intention for our practice: clearing our heads, finding balance, dedicating the time to someone or something. It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you find a little peace of mind, and yoga was a great way to kick off days full of conversation and self-reflection.\n\n\"Aerie \"Aerie\n

“The power of women brought together to simply love and be… two words: pure magic. Find your girls and love them hard.” \u2013 Alexis Jones<\/a>, founder of two powerful movements: I Am That Girl<\/a> and Protect Her<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fall was right on time for this cozy weekend. We snuggled up for daytime workshops focused on identity, positive self-talk, intuition and belief systems.<\/p>\n\"Aerie \"Aerie \"Aerie\n

“If you\u2019re currently struggling with something, look back and try to find where that fear originated from. If you can recognize it, you can OWN it, and you can rise above it.” \u2013 Cassey Ho, aka @blogilates<\/a>, creator of POP Pilates and PIIT28.<\/p>\n\"Aerie \"Aerie\n

So much love for these Darling and #AerieREAL ladies!<\/p>\n\"Aerie \"Aerie\n\n\"Aerie\n\n“So much can change in a year friends. In a CONVERSATION. In a moment. We are all changing and learning and becoming. And the journey is long, and hard… and painful. But above all, it is BEAUTIFUL. It is redeeming. And it (and YOU!) are WORTH IT.” \u2013 Blogger Alex Michael May<\/a>\n\n\"Aerie\n\n\"Aerie\n\n
