What does it mean to surrender and why is it so hard? Surrender is one of the hardest things to do - to release control and agency to something greater than oneself. This is what the Yamas & Niyamas have been leading us up to - preparing for this very challenging idea.

Join me as we explore su...

Welcome to the New Moon in Aries - energy rising for Spring and the fiery energy of Aries! Today we are working with building a bit of heat to burn off what is no longer needed, and focusing on balancing and supporting the liver/gallbladder meridian organ systems as we move into Spring. What se...

Springtime is the energy of wood and the liver/gallbladder meridians. It's a time of detoxification, clearing out the denseness and heaviness of winter. In this practice we use the support of props to help us settle in and allow the poses to do all of the work for us as we support our natural d...

Tapas is probably one of the most misunderstood of the Yamas & Niyamas. It can be translated as fire, heat, discipline and is most often interpreted as more active practice (in yoga at least). But how can we apply the energy of tapas to our lives to inspire, to change, to transition, to break t...

What does it mean to Winter? Many of us have lost touch with the natural seasonal cycles due to electronics, lights, and our fast paced world but we need to circle back to wintering. Wintering is that time when we slow down, reflect, rest, restore, heal, and practice deep creativity so that whe...

The element of Metal in Traditional Chinese Medicine is related to fall/autumn and the lung/large intestine meridians located in the arms/chest/upper shoulders. In this practice we soften, support, and use the poses to get deep into these tissues to make more space.

Aparigraha, the 5th of the Yamas (8 Limbs of Yoga), is often translated as nonattachment. In this practice we explore releasing attachment through opening up to possibility, listening to our bodies and what they need in this moment, letting go of expectations and allowing the present and our pra...

Sometimes we can feel all wound up as if we are a rope all tied in knots. Whether this be mental or emotional this can be reflected in our bodies and a great way to unwind it all is to begin with the physical body. Join Lucy and I as we explore "knotted to unwound" poses in our bodies - making ...

Our heart meridians are connected to our ability to sleep deeply, fully and soundly - to essential rest peacefully. When this organ system is out of balance - we feel overstimulated, cravings, longing and struggle to settle down. When in balance - we feel joy, peace, stillness, calm, compassion...

Each day we awaken we begin with new energy - what will we do with it, how will we use it, how long will it last, how do we conserve it for emergencies? Some will use all of their energy in a big outpouring and others will trickle it out as a precious resource and others will vary between one en...

We all grieve in our own way and at our own pace and while we need time and space to allow the mind/body to heal, we can also help ourselves by engaging in practice like this one to fully support us and comfort us. Join me for this sweet breath practice, along with yoga poses focusing on softnes...

Everyone believes anger is a bad thing but in reality, it's a natural part of our human psyche. Instead of pushing it down, pretending it isn't there, ignoring it - anger is often a great way to explore, experience, and make positive change.

Today we explore anger through the Liver meridian (th...

The element of water is one we can all connect to daily - through the flow of our day, the flow of our breath, the awareness of the flow of life and yes, the flow of actual water (if we are lucky enough to be near some). Water is gentle, yet powerful, cleansing and renewing. It is the sacred en...

Within Traditional Chinese Medicine and yoga tradition, the concepts of solar/lunar, yin/yang, masculine/feminine sun/moon are intertwined. Recognizing the value inherent in both sides, the blending of a little of the other in each, and the center upon which all of this clings - this is where th...
