Community Landing Page

Hi everyone! I created a community landing page to help you find your yoga and meditation videos much easier than Patreon's scrolling format. The classes are divided into five categories to help you find what you're looking for: Yin & Restorative, Flow & Movement, Meditation, 30 Minutes or Less, and Kundalini. They are organized in a carousel format by date (the latest showing first). View Post

By joining (completely free and optional with your subscription), you can connect with other like-minded people, ask questions, share your journey, and feel safe to expr...

“The Opening” Playlist

“The Opening” Playlist

Here’s another playlist for your yoga practices or simply to elevate the vibration of your space. As I mentioned during my new moon virtual class, I’ve been consuming much less content (which for me is podcasts) and listening to music instead, which helps me maintain an elevated and clear state. This playlist has been my go-to. The song Ave Maria by Ashana is particularly powerful.  View Post

Energy Restore Sequence

Energy Restore Sequence

This sequence came through divine inspiration one night as I was getting ready for bed. After I did the postures, I experienced a long deep sleep, as if I had received an energy tune-up and everything somehow realigned. This is a gentle sequence (gentler than yin), and you may not need props unless you want blocks to sit on. A mat is optional.  

Enjoy and let me know what you think!<...

New Moon in Cancer Forecast 7/20/20

New Moon in Cancer Forecast 7/20/20

The new moon in Cancer is actually a blue moon, because there were two back-to-back new moons in the same sign. This doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, it’s often because we need to go back and really make sure we learn and embody the lessons of the moon cycle. Therefore, it doesn’t surprise me that I’m seeing the Queen of Cups reversed as a repeat card since the full moon for...

Akashic Records Reading for the New Moon / Solstice / Solar Eclipse — 6/22/20

Akashic Records Reading for the New Moon / Solstice / Solar Eclipse — 6/22/20

Sunshine. Light. Light embracing all. Light pouring through the hidden layers. Light making known that which was once hidden in the shadows.

Have you seen the stars? How light breaks up the darkness?

Where have you gone to search for light? It is already around you, embracing you.

The layers go deep. The wounds are deep. The deeper the wound, the more painful it is when it is ...
