💜This week in classes it's all about Santosha or the practice of contentment. ✨️To get a glimpse of why yoga philosophy tells us that contentment is such an important practice I'm sharing directly from the source of the Yoga Sutras. Practicing contentment supports: attainment of supreme joy. I mean, who doesn't want that?! 💜Yoga is not just movement and relaxation- it is literally a guidebook for how to live your life in a way that lines you up to connect with your most au

✨️This is 42. 💜My heart is full. I couldn't ask for a more beautiful day to celebrate how far I've come in my time here on earth. What a wild interesting ride. Feeling grateful today for all the hard work I put in to change, evolve and grow over the years. It hasn't been easy, but it has definitely been worth it. ✌️Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I'm feeling the love for sure, in case you couldn't tell from the smile on my face. 💜I couldn't decide, with or without m

🌟Everything I learned through leaning into discomfort... 💜I am stronger than I ever consciously realized. It is by leaning into the tough stuff that brings about the greatest healing. Speaking my truth openly to the world, without regard for how I would be seen by others, was liberating for my soul. Each step of my journey was perfectly placed in order to bring me to where I am today. Avoiding the triggers just makes the wounds fester and prolongs the suffering. It's not fu

May you live every day as if it's Earth Day. Love our planet and she will love you back. Care for the creatures and the land. Respect her, for she is wise. Honor her with humbled praise for the majesty and beauty she bestows upon us daily. Walk upon her barefoot. Feel the steadiness she provides. Shower her in gratitude. Gaze upon her in awe and wonder. It is because of her that we are here. Live every day as if it's Earth Day, because it is. Without her we wouldn'

💜A little student love. Thank you @jessisjamboree 🕉Yoga Therapy is personalized and so can look different for each person. Basic virtual sessions include touching base about what is happening with the individual who is showing up, use of discussion, intake and assessment forms to get an idea of Yogic practices that may support that individual in whatever it is that they are looking for out of Yoga Therapy. During sessions the Yoga Therapist and Student have a conversation,

💜When we practice the second Yama Satya and live in truthfulness- there is nothing to fear. Our life becomes an open book and this leads to freedom. Yamas are always applied in thought, word and deed. They are also always under the umbrella of non-violence, meaning all that is practiced is under the guise of "do no harm" to self and others. 🌟I personally live my life in alignment with core virtues of Love and Truth. When I truly began applying these two things to how I th

💜Well folks this is it! Happy Valentine's Launch Day! 🦋Chchchcheck out my new website baby, official logo and out of this world style. It really came together nicely. I'm feeling accomplished and inspired by making this happen for myself. As a Hippie Yogi, tech and business stuff is are not my strong suites but I did it! I successfully migrated my business fully over to Wix. I think I kinda understand branding now too 😆. This week I felt like a real adult as I also got

💜The reality is that the world we live in is a messy place, as is the mind. We can however change both of those things... 🌟We can do this by choosing to live consciously with integrity in alignment with high vibrational energies such as non-violence and truthfulness. When we begin to shift our internal perspective in this way we radiate those high vibe frequencies out to everyone we encounter and this is how we change the world- by adding kindness and compassion. 💜In

☮️Happy Thursday. I hope your week has been outta this world, I know mine has been a bit strange... 🌟To lighten things up I decided to share the sticker a friend/student sent me back in December, saying it reminded her of me. I love so much finding out how others see me. This small gift makes me giggle and smile every time I look at it. It's pretty representative of how I carry my unique Self in this world spreading peace and love. @kgio36 you see me ✌ 💜 If you'd like to

When I was younger I used to judge my physical appearance harshly. I didn't like my hair, my face, my body- I always thought that in order to be beautiful I needed to look a certain way- according to magazines, tv, movies, etc. This resulted in anxiety, negative self talk, harmful behaviors and a cycle of consistently making bad choices with relationships, food, and substances. I didn't like myself very much, I treated myself like shit, chose relationships with people who

🕉According to Classical Yoga Philosophy the entirety of creation is made up 2 elements: the eternal unchanging (Perusha) and the physical changing (Prakriti). Everything is made up of these, including us. Written in the Yoga Sutras is a core teaching that the root of all human suffering comes from the forgetting about the Perusha/Eternal and identifying solely with the Prakriti/Physical. 🌟The physical world shapes who we are from the time we are small, through every experie

🌟This week I'm leading a dive into the Yoga 8 Fold Path by talking about Classical Yoga Philosophy's take on the entirety of existence being made up of 2 base elements: the Unchanging Eternal Purusha and the Ever-changing Physical Prakriti. 💜 No worries if you have never heard of this stuff before, I present Classical Yoga philosophy in a digestible down to earth type of way. My teaching style is lighthearted, playful and trauma informed. 🕉If you feel called to practice
