What I didn’t realize was that my love was conditional. My confidence was based on fitting into acceptable standards. Mine, my family’s, society, my friends… It was totally and utterly swayed by my mood, by other’s approval, and by looking into the very real dark corners of my self and my life.

In this episode we cover:

-my definition of self love

-validate yo’self

-how do we show up for ourselves?

You need to understand that when you take action to do differently or level up, your old patterns are going to come for you. They live deep in the tissues of your body, and the dark corners of your mind. They run in the background, automatically like a basic robot computer. The moment that you decide to take on this mission of negating, of letting go of something, the resistance will begin to bubble up and surface. This is NORMAL.

In this episode we cover:

-why though?

-three key understandings

-yoga is knowing through experience

This episode is a mini workshop on choice. I’ll use specific situations from example humans to work through 3 steps to unpack your choice. You can come back to this episode and use it again.

In this episode we cover:

-3 steps to make a decision

-living into your values

-tuning your inner compass

It is safe to be as evolved or un-evolved as you are currently. Or to be a complete and total flailing beginner and wishing you were an expert. Put yourself out there, and see what comes back, and what doesn’t.

In this episode we cover:

-do whatever you want

-beginners full body fear

-truth as the foundation for connection

If you've always been meaning to take my class, now it's easier than ever! My favourite yoga to teach, and the practice that saves me every day is YIN yoga. In yin yoga we use less postures for more time and target the connective tissue like joints and fascia, rather than the muscles. It has been a key for me in not only reducing my pain levels, but also alleviating stress and clearing emotional blocks. To me, it's a meditation in motion and a practice of the art of relaxation mindbodyheartsoul.

If you want the video and not just the audio go to my website and get it under the FREE category “try yin at home." You can also join us every Monday night live on Zoom.

I am trusting you to listen to your body.

If you are in pain - that is not yoga.

Surrender is one of those words that often leaves us wondering HOW THOUGH? I am a collector of aha moments and I love sharing when something that is commonly said as a platitude is explained in more depth.

In this episode we cover

-eff it, I give up

-ego conditioning

-faith in something bigger

Book: The Untethered Soul - Michael A. Singer

People ask me to talk about purpose a lot. They say how though? How did you find your purpose? How can I? I’m going to break it down into two perspectives I can get behind, and one that I can’t.

In this episode we cover:

-two necessary beliefs

-why planning doesn’t work

-the song of your soul

There is no right or wrong way to turn inwards. No such thing as too late, or too far gone. There is only now, and your connection, your vibration.

In this episode we cover:

-my meditation journey

-your fucking excuses

-mindbodyheartsoulBEYOND meditation

BECOMING who want to be is bullshit. You can BE anything in the present moment. It is in BEING that you will attract the external. You will never be able to leap, risk, blossom, if you don’t first firmly plant your feet in the ground of exactly where you are.

In this episode we cover:

-Who am I?

-svadhyaya (self-study)

-if you haven't set your own values, they have been done for you
