Higher Consciousness | Book Review

My friend and fellow yoga teacher, Rob Owens, published a book last year inspired by (and about) the Yoga Sutras. How exciting to finally have my own copy! I read it in two-days, as my passion for yoga philosophy is strong, and it is rare to find easily-digested spiritual texts. If you are a beginner… Continue reading Higher Consciousness | Book Review

Yoga in Port Hope

Between 2006 and 2010 I had a lovely yoga space to teach from in Port Hope. I gave it up when I became pregnant, and moved to British Columbia. Closing that space shifted my whole business and when I returned to Port Hope just a few months later I had to begin again - teaching… Continue reading Yoga in Port Hope

The Gentle Way of Hatha | Spring

Yoga Classes, In Person and Online Spring is always a strange time for yoga classes. Many people travel, or go away, and it has resulted in a lot of "partial" registrations. So, although the in-person classes are technically full, I often have drop-in spaces available on Wednesday evenings at 6:30pm ($20 per class). Online Yoga… Continue reading The Gentle Way of Hatha | Spring

Most of… Continue reading A Quarterly Update

Chakras, Yoga, Meditation

It has been a LONG time since I've mentioned the chakras, philosophy, or meditation in any of my blogs or even in my classes. Partly because there is so much content and offerings out there these days, and partly because I have been so busy and distracted by other things going on in life that… Continue reading Chakras, Yoga, Meditation

The Value of Solitude

Even if you are not an introverted individual such as myself, it is important to take time for YOU that is just FOR you. Often our self-care or our "me time" includes fun social events, hanging out with friends, or indulging our senses. All great ideas! I am an odd ball of a human that… Continue reading The Value of Solitude
