Returning home from the beautiful island of Cozumel, I am renewed and refreshed. The energy of Spring is becoming more and more apparent in the atmosphere and we just passed the last full moon of Winter!!
Take in these final precious few weeks before all the activity begins to bubble up and take hold of you. Looking forward to getting back into routine and sharing some important insights I Came Upon during the week I was away. It’s amazing teaching yoga in different countries. I come upon so many kindred spirits that make me feel right at home
Our half day mini retreat celebrating light is full to capacity. There is a wait list so I encourage those that have signed up to submit your payment and secure your spot. I’m looking forward to Leading this transitional Gathering
No matter how much we worry, ruminate or obsess over what is going to happen in the future, we have little to no control over it. We have to live into the present with patience for the future to unfold before our eyes. All the anxiety we create in our minds does nothing but distant us from the precious present moment. Why not surrender to the flow? Do the best you can today and let tomorrow take care of itself. Letting go of worry is a practice of self compassion that allows your heart to be at peace.
Our Celebrating Light March mini retreat is now full! I encourage those that have signed up to send in their registration payment as soon as possible as I am now taking a wait list. If you would like to be on the wait list just send me a message. So excited to get my creativity flowing in the direction of Spring!
“From wherever the mind wanders do to its flickering and unsteady nature, one must certainly withdraw it and bring it back under the control of the self” The Bhagavad Gita 6:26
The above quote is from the chapter entitled Dhyana Yoga. Dhyana, which is the seventh limb in Patanjali’s eight limbs of yoga, translates as the liberation of mind from all disturbing and distracting emotions, thoughts and desires.
Keep in mind (pun intended) that these two sacred books (Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and The Bhavavad Gita) were both written sometime around the 2nd Century bce. It is something Humanity has been struggling with for a very very long time. So have patience with yourself and remember; any effort on this path is NEVER wasted!

Dear yoga friends
Everything is connected and always changing. One day we are here and the next day we’re there. Treasure your moments. Let go and Ponder how blessed you are
The above passage from Thitch Nhat Hanh reminds us of how integral each one of us are to our families, our society and the world. Thus, we must cultivate a commitment to our practice. Yoga teaches us to stand steady, magnanimous and confident in our physical postures and embody our authentic selves. It is from this solidity that we can return to ourselves again and again creating positive influences in our inner and outer environment for the benefit of all beings.
