Homeward

The perPETUAL self care calendar

A LEGACY STORY

“This calendar is actually the second edition. I was gifted a perpetual calendar in the 90s, made by my mom’s yoga teacher Margaret. It was filled with yoga sequences, medicinal herbs and health hints from her decades of teaching yoga and growing herbs as a herbalist in Germany and Canada. Although I never met her, I was named after her, my middle name is Margaret. She left me with the practice of yoga - something she passed down to my mother who taught for 35 years. She also left me the gift of cyclical wisdom in the calendar she left behind. When I first held Margaret’s calendar I was intrigued by this invitation into a world I couldn’t yet understand. Fifteen years later - I’m a yoga teacher, my sister is a herbalist and Margaret’s world is now my reality. It’s part of our journey to carry on her legacy and I’m humbled to have finally found the team to bring this project to life.”
