Yoga for Life:
Courage
What does COURAGE look like for you? In a world with infinite distractions and opportunities to numb out and avoid facing the truth, do you have the courage to face yourself and your life wholeheartedly? This includes the courage to:
Be your true self
Say YES to what you need and NO to what distracts you from your purpose
Feel all the feels
Look honestly and compassionately at what is and isn't serving you
Be present
Show up consistently
Practice, try, fail, learn, and grow
Let go of perfection
Stand up for what you believe in
Be true to your boundaries
Receive as much as you give
BE

Yoga is more than just a practice; it's a transformative approach to living well. In today's fast-paced world, many individuals find themselves feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from their bodies, from each other, and from nature. Yoga provides the tools to cultivate mindfulness, enhance health, foster emotional resilience, and build a more peaceful and loving world.
Love Notes
YOGA THAT ENHANCES YOUR LIFEFORCE
My classes are designed to harmonize energy so you leave feeling grounded and refreshed.
The practices change with the seasons because the qualities in nature change seasonally, which affects the way we feel. Have you ever noticed that you feel a little stuck in the spring, or less patient in the summer?
Energetic balance is based on the Ayurvedic principle of harmony which says that in order to find balance we have to understand which qualities are elevated and use the opposite qualities to come back to center.
My classes begin with inquiry. What are the qualities of the environment? Which of those qualities are manifesting in you? Do you feel hot or cold? Steady or spacey? Is your energy flowing or are you stuck?
Curious? Yoga is meant to be learned through direct experience. Come try out a class and see for yourself!
Classes that are Aligned with nature
What I teach changes seasonally, but more importantly HOW I teach changes seasonally, and there is a reason behind every choice I make in a practice.
In any season, the intention is to enhance your life force so that you feel vibrant and your gifts shine. It is pretty amazing to witness the energetic shifts in people after these kinds of practices!
In the summer, practices are cooling and spacious to balance the fire element abundant in nature which can make us feel overheated and spicy. Practices circulate energy without fanning the flames of the fire.
Summer
Fall & Winter
In the fall and winter, the environment is cold, dry, rough, and windy. That can lead to dry skin, anxiety, constipation, and joint pain. Practices are grounding and warming to balance the wind and space elements that govern the season.
Spring
Springtime is mud season, and we can feel dull, stuck, and heavy when water mixes with earth. Practices support balance by creating strong energetic boundaries and then getting the energy to flow so we don’t feel stuck in the mud.
