I have not written a "personal blog" in a very long time. It's making me feel unusually vulnerable and uncomfortable, yet the inner work I did this weekend with Seane Corne is worth sharing. The two hour workshop I attended on Sunday was called "The Yoga of Awakening" and although Seane had a variety of… Continue reading Seane Corn | My Continued Awakening

Calm In The Chaos
On Saturday, November 19th I will be hosting a new workshop "Finding The Calm In The Chaos." This has been brewing for awhile, since creating "A Journey Through Self-Care" I knew there was more I wanted to offer in line with nurturing ourselves. The self-care workshop was designed to simply give women a day to… Continue reading Calm In The Chaos
The Body’s Wisdom
"The nervous system does not speak english; It speaks sensation. The body is the voice of the nervous system." -Christine Lee, Introduction to Somatic Therapy Workshop In my yoga classes, I often have students reflect on the feelings of their bodies and to tune in deeper to the organs and nervous system. We use awareness… Continue reading The Body’s Wisdom
Divine Feminine
Today is Mother's Day, so it seems fitting to share my deeper healing of The Yoga Code workshop. My shift actually happened at the end of the workshop, which integrated overnight, and the next morning in my hotel room, I was flooded with insight and healing. As I journalled about the experience I kept hearing… Continue reading Divine Feminine

20 More Reasons To Do Yoga
One year ago, I had the bright idea to publish one blog a week, for one year, totalling 50 reasons to do yoga in 2015. Early in the year my computer crashed, making the weekly blog an impossible commitment. By the time I got a new computer, I was four months behind on my 50… Continue reading 20 More Reasons To Do Yoga
Workshop | A Journey Through Self Care
What soothes your soul? Refills your cup? What do you need to feel fulfilled? This is something I've been exploring over the last few months, and years. Especially since becoming a mother, it is way harder to put your own needs first. A hard lesson learned is: I can't pour from an empty cup! Since… Continue reading Workshop | A Journey Through Self Care
My Radical Self-Care Experience
This year for my birthday, I focused on some radical self-care. I treated myself to a trip out west. I spent a week sleeping on a couch (best sleep I've had in the last four years might I add!), writing on a couch, reading cards on a couch, drinking 8 glasses of water a day… Continue reading My Radical Self-Care Experience
Yoga Blogs
Just an update: my computer has crashed and my time and options are limited weekly for blogging. Already behind, and I'm disappointed to say the "50 reasons to do yoga" blogs are temporarily suspended in time! In the mean time feel free to browse the old blogs, and I will be back at this as… Continue reading Yoga Blogs
