In today’s Stoop Sit I talk about resilience (today’s buzz word) and the yoga/Ayurveda perspective on it: OJAS. I also share a framework for keeping your ojas high as we head into a potential stressful period in time!
“Take It As It Comes” sparked today’s talk and reminded me of the Hindu deity Ganesha and seeing perceived obstacles as path.
It’s such an important time to care for yourself so that you don’t lose sight of your incredible capacity to keep showing up as your true self, come what may, obstacles be damned.
It’s a Big Feeling day over here so I ventilate my heart’s music and offer the great teachings this powerful moment is making available to us if you’re willing.
Are you ready to double down on living an authentic life?! CARPE DIEM
On the virtual stoop today I talk about this idea of being more you now than you ever have been before. Why? Or why not? What hinders us? I talk again about energy stewardship and boundaries too. Then we sit! This sit gets interrupted by a poor connection (weird since I have google fiber) so I’m sorry for that! Eyes closed and didn’t notice until we were done! First time for everything!
Today’s stoop talk emerged from a place of tenderness and gratitude around something I’m going through and I hope the discussion of energetic stewardship and boundaries is of benefit to you in navigating your own challenges!
Today we explore the idea of probing some of the ways we may unintentionally restrict or “incarcerate ourselves” and the concept of getting into behavioral grooves that may ultimately leave us feeling toxic. Then we sit and remember that our thoughts and emotions are our domain alone, we can always choose what we soak in. Love you all!!
After a friend dumped me on Instagram, I got to pondering this idea that some people think we can't be serious about what's going on in the world if we're still engaging in play, silliness and joy. And that's just a part of our conditioned consciousness that says we're either THIS or THAT. But Nature is not black or white, me or other, work or play. It's YOGA, the union of what appear to be polarities. Yoga is like a Venn diagram, that union space between what seem to be opposites. Trust me, we can be very serious about our activism AND still laugh and find joy. I share a teaching from the author Audre Lorde about how joy provides the power for change (which is why joy is an act of resistance!) and from Dr. Chelsea Jackson Roberts' 95 year old granny. Give a listen.
Hey neighbs! Today I talk about why we suffer, what causes it, how our relationship with the “sweet confinement of our aloneness” impacts it and what to do about it. Grateful to you for being here!! May it be of benefit 🥰
Hey neighbors! In today's episode I talk about how challenged we’re feeling with everything that's happening in the world, playing the long game, getting into top nervous system shape and exactly how meditation can help (vs a vague “it’s good for you”). May it be of benefit! 🙏
It’s my birthday week! 48 is right around the corner and I’ve been in REFLECTION. Today I talk about how “healing is the unlearning of patterns” and what that means to me. I also talk about how to use the practices of Yoga to support that process and then we get right to it with a Wholeness Meditation. Feel free to share! May it be of benefit 🤗
