A few weeks ago I was interviewing an incredible life coach. Someone I hope to work with someday (though ultimately I was honoring myself in knowing now isn’t the time to add stuff on to my ever increasing schedule). During our discussion she was asking me about my life and I briefly mentioned I had […]

How Yoga Helps with My Triggers
Trigger (v): (especially of something read, seen, or heard) distress (someone), typically as a result of arousing feelings or memories associated with a particular traumatic experience. A few weeks ago, I was sitting with my mom at a cafe and we ran into an old friend of mine. We chatted for a few moments, lamenting […]
The Releasing Ceremony
Recently I stumbled onto the world’s best therapist. I am so grateful for her guidance, but mostly I’m grateful she is so in tune with her spiritual side that she allows me to dig deeper into my own spirituality and yoga practice every time we meet. The first time I met her I opened the […]
Sadhana Check-in
This weekend marks the full moon, the time when I’ve been doing my daily sadhana for two full weeks and I believe the perfect time to let you in on what I’ve been up to! While I was in my 500 hour teacher training, I learned the art of a sadhana. Sadhana has many translations […]
How to Bless Your Home
This week during my classes, I worked on the idea of our Home Frequency. Elena Brower put out an amazing mini-article in her newsletter last week that reminded me of why I started the Shala and it resonated on an even deeper level as it was the first weekend of teacher training. It took me […]
A Yogic Guide to Gift Giving: Evolving Light
To say that I’m excited to have Jessica on the blog is an understatement. When I saw her beginning to showcase her reiki art/dreamcatchers online I knew I needed to have one for the Shala. I didn’t know what to ask for other than being drawn to something that looked like magical mermaid hair with tiny […]
The New Argument on Social Media
Dear Yoga Teachers, I want to start off by saying thank you so much for all you do within your community and our world. Being a yoga teacher is no joke and is seriously hard work. Unlike many other jobs, we can’t turn off at the end of the day. We chose to be teachers […]
Free Love Friday: A Chat with God
I talk to God — a lot! Recently, a friend of mine mentioned that when we awake in the middle of the night (2:00-4:00am), it’s because the angels are thinking of us. I loved hearing this and for some reason, the past few nights I have been waking up around 3:00am! I keep thinking of […]
My Experience with Kundalini Yoga, Reiki & The Spirit
This past year has been a wonderful year of discovery. I’ve had the opportunity to dig even deeper in my yoga practice and open my eyes to what yoga truly means (to me). At the end of last year, if you had asked me if I practiced yoga daily I would have said NO. I “only” went […]

The reading was intense, as Sasha explained to me the intricate details of what was coming up during her painting of […]
