I suspect when most people do a purge, it's a seasonal thing, or maybe an annual event. Very practical! I, on the other hand, had a life-time of boxes to go through. I have called this my "great purge" and it's been on-going for about 3-years (and daily). As an artist (painter, writer, music-dabbler, and… Continue reading The Great Purge

Signal vs Noise
Have you heard of this? I just learned about it last week, and it is changing my life and how I feel about business. This was the video I watched if you are interested in learning more for your own business: Diary of a CEO with guest Kevin O'leary. I had never heard of this… Continue reading Signal vs Noise
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
Creating Space
The cycles in my life always bring me back to this need to create space. Creative space. Breathing space. Personal space. As a mother who also works with kids and runs my own yoga business, there leaves little room for me. I spend most of my time and energy thinking about others, and how best… Continue reading Creating Space

What’s Next?
The mind is a wild thing. The first paragraph of the Yoga Sutras says: "Yoga is the settling of the mind into silence. When the mind has settled, we are established in our essential nature, which is unbounded consciousness. Our essential nature is usually overshadowed by the activity of the mind." (translation by Alistair Shearer)… Continue reading What’s Next?
The View From Here
As I sit here typing, coffee by my side, a grey Tuesday morning, I realize this is my first day of summer. Â A sense of potential hangs in the air, and some anticipation of the unknown that lies ahead... Â Time to nurture my spirit and renew my energy. Â Full-time mom and full-time work is a… Continue reading The View From Here
Isolation, Hibernation, Transformation
Just like nature, we all have our own natural rhythms. As a society and culture we have created a structure and expectation of living, that is not in tune to nature or anyone's individual needs. In our progress of technological advancement we have led ourselves into a way of living that is very fragmented.  We have separated ourselves… Continue reading Isolation, Hibernation, Transformation
This is me, on Yoga.
Here goes my ego-post of the century. I posted this image of myself on Facebook the other night, and it had a multitude of 'likes' and comments. Â It was a great ego-boost as my self-esteem has done a serious nose-dive since child bearing... Being a mom has destroyed every last ounce of confidence I once… Continue reading This is me, on Yoga.
Strive For Wholeness
A part of my journey through life has been to find wholeness. Â Yoga has helped bring me to a place in my awareness where wholeness is accepting ourselves and our lives exactly as they are. Much of the work I have done, on myself and others, I would define as 'healing' work. Â However as I… Continue reading Strive For Wholeness
