Beautiful Souls Monthly - Stories, Practice & Insight
September 21, 2026
Hello Beautiful Soul,
First I want to share with you the exciting news that Yoga Club on the Beautiful Souls Academy was recently featured in Voyage Pennsylvania magazine! You can read the interview here; https://voyagepennsylvania.com/interview/meet-jennifer-agrawal-of-yoga-club-on-the-beautiful-souls-academy
Tomorrow is the Autumnal Equinox. That means the Autumn bonus videos are once again available in the 30 Day Plank Challenge.
Let me tell you honestly that I drifted away from my regular plank practice for quite some time. My daily exercise beyond yoga began to focus more on jump-rope & weight lifting. But “thanks” to menopause, no matter what I was doing, the weight kept piling on! So I thought it might be time to add planks back into my regular routine. I started about 2 weeks ago, holding a 1 minute plank about 4 or 5 times a week. Just one minute. And in only 2 weeks I have already noticed muscle definition returning below my ribcage on both sides. Just 2 weeks!!
So again I am reminded of how beneficial the practice of planks can be. And remember, if you can’t hold a plank for one minute yet, let your one minute be cumulative. Hold for 5 to 10 seconds and take a short break. Then try another 5 to 10 seconds. Maybe you don’t get to 60 seconds the first week but I promise you that if you practice in this way regularly you will definitely build up the strength to hold a one minute plank (or longer!) regardless of how impossible it might seem to you now. So enroll, or re-visit if you are already enrolled in the FREE Plank Challenge, today.

A Little More Magic
September 11, 2026
Hello Beautiful Soul,
Today I want to share with you the power of the PAUSE.
Have you ever found yourself swept along by your routine? Doing things out of habit more than out of enjoyment?
What do you do when you notice that the way you choose to spend your time is not bringing you the same happiness that it once did?
It is my desire that the work I do should always come from a place of love and joy.
When I realized that the content I spent my time creating was starting to feel more like an obligation and less of a source of joy, I knew it was time to make some changes. Normally I would just pivot. Shift focus. Try something new. In the past, whenever I felt this way, I always kept DOING SOMETHING because the message we get from society is that to do NOTHING is to fall behind! I was operating from the belief that if I JUST KEPT GOING then SOMETHING would eventually click and then I would FINALLY see the growth in my business that I have been working towards for a DECADE. But I couldn’t do that this time. Not because I had suddenly gained clear wisdom (that came later!) but because I was tired. I realized that what was once my creativity expressing itself in various forms had become more like a non-stop hustle that was getting me nothing but burned out.
It was time for a change, I could feel it. But I was too tired and disappointed to even find my next pivot. So I just STOPPED. Instead of changing my actions, I chose NON-action, a pause. I stopped making the weekly Tarot Card videos and Haiku videos. I stopped planning and recording all video content. You may have even noticed that I didn’t send out a monthly email in July or August. I intentionally STOPPED a lot of the work that I had been doing.
Do you know what I felt during those weeks of non-action? Not boredom. Not regret. Not even anxiety. What I felt was a lot of relief.
When we finally decide to let go, and can do so without sadness, relief comes in like a cool rain after a scorching hot day.
I let go of the work schedule and the to-do list that had been my daily routine for years, and I only did the work that still felt joyful. I kept teaching my yoga classes - of course! - because the Yoga Club community is a constant source of joy and inspiration. I also continued with the monthly tarot reading video on YouTube, which I also really enjoy doing. But everything else stopped. I stopped not just the DOING but also the PLANNING.
What did I do during this time if I wasn’t constantly creating content? Well,…. I have a baby who is under a year old,
so I assure you that I wasn’t bored! But I also read a lot of fiction, which is something I hadn’t done in over a decade. Even my leisure reading had become part of the hustle. Previously, every book I picked up was something to help “improve” myself in some way. Always learning more so that I could DO more - Be more! Be better! But it was never enough. So during this pause, I stopped all the “learning” and just read for enjoyment. It was fantastic!
For several weeks, that’s how it went. I enjoyed NOT doing. I enjoyed reading. I enjoyed resting. I actually enjoyed the pause. Somehow in all this struggle I finally felt - no, DECIDED! - that I was ENOUGH! I wouldn’t let my worth be based on my output. I realized that the constant activity of “checking items off of my to-do list” was somehow validating my existence to myself. I didn’t want to be like that anymore. But I didn’t know HOW to be, so I just paused. I didn’t have a deadline in mind as to when this pause would conclude. I let myself find stillness in my routine. I stopped the hustle.
At times it felt a little bit like a free fall, to take the leap of letting go without yet seeing the landing spot. But I learned to trust the process of letting go. Trust that I would land where I was meant to be.
And where did I land? It’s not a massive change. It is NOT a HUGE shift. It is a small shift in the way I express my creativity. The video format wasn’t working for me, and in the stillness, in the pausing, I remembered how much I enjoy writing. I remembered how much I enjoy seeing life from unusual angles and WRITING about it. I LOVE finding magic in everyday life - the beauty of nature, encounters with strangers, insights discovered in meditation, messages found in tarot cards, strength found on my yoga mat - I love ALL of it and I love sharing it with others in the form of WRITING. Yes, I have a blog page on my website, but that format felt too limited in many ways.
I felt inspired to put my energy into writing and sharing it on the Substack platform. For a few years I have been following a wonderful poet on Substack, but I never did much beyond that until now. What I like about Substack is that it holds space for a variety of topics. Instead of keeping my writings about Yoga and meditation in the Yoga Club curriculum, and my writings about life on my blog, and tarot videos on YouTube, I can now keep all of these writings and reflections in one place.
So, I welcome you to A Little More Magic
This is a place to pause, reflect, and discover a little more magic in ordinary life.
Here, I write about living a life that is curious, conscious, creative, and occasionally delightfully unconventional.
Yoga, meditation, tarot, music, poetry, love, spirituality, life in India—and the strange, beautiful lessons that appear when we’re paying attention.
Some days I’ll share a thought that’s been wandering around in my head. Some days a story. Sometimes a haiku. Sometimes a little wisdom from the cards. And sometimes just something that made me stop and say, “Wow. Life is fascinating.” (Like when I recently saw a Slug wearing a white feather on its back. For real!)
Life is full of beautiful moments and I believe we’re all becoming who we are, one small moment at a time.
Come sit with me for a while. 🌿

Celebrations & My Life in India
March 11, 2026
Hello Beautiful Soul,
At the end of January we had a formal celebration to welcome our baby boy, Theodor, into the community and to celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary.
It was a wonderful night. If you would like to see a glimpse of it, the photographers put together a brief but beautiful video showing some lovely moments from the night. You can find that video here; https://youtu.be/slbf34sENfU?si=LzVafPIwH_XaDApk
A personal element I would like to share with you is this: I am 54 years old and, as you already know, I just became a mother for the first time. Yes, this is rather unconventional, as most of my life choices are! 😄 But I want you to know that YOGA, yes YOGA! is a big part of why I feel confident becoming a mother at this stage of life. Yoga has kept me strong, healthy and mobile. The practice of yoga goes beyond the physical benefits though. Yoga helps me find my center when life gets tumultuous. The meditation practices of yoga reveal a lot to me about the ways in which I can grow into my best self. If you are not already a member of Yoga Club, I just want you to know that I will be here for you when you are ready to join us. I will be delighted to share with you the many wonderful benefits found on the yogic path.
Also recently added to my YouTube channel is another installment of “My Life in India” where I briefly share with you my experience of the “sounds of the city.” At the end of the short video Oliver (our dog) makes a funny appearance. You can find it here; https://youtube.com/shorts/hJd04cvF3FI?si=qisAHuUifYxhq1rO
