✨ Third Eye Awakening Flow | Ajna Chakra Activation ✨👁️

We begin in the womb of Child’s Pose,
soft forehead kissing earth,
side-body melting open like midnight wings,
breathing into the hidden cave where vision sleeps.

Rise gently,
legs wide as ancient horizons,
forward fold unfurls,
spine spirals in sacred twists,
wringing out the fog,
making space for the indigo flame.

Then we surrender.
Shoelace pose coils the hips,
a tender twist wrings the heart open,
truth drips down the third eye’s silver thread.

Finally, Butterfly wings,
somatic and still,
knees soft as moonlit petals,
subtle pulses rocking the inner sea,
Ajna blooms,
a thousand-petaled lotus of pure seeing.

Every breath is a key.
Every shape, an invitation.
Come rest your gaze inward,
the unseen is ready to be known.

Drop into this slow, luminous journey
and let the Sixth Chakra awaken within you.
Your inner sight is calling.
Will you answer?

💙👁️ Like if your Third Eye fluttered during this practice

THROAT CHAKRA PARTY! 🦅💙
Let’s utilize the chair to dive deeper!
Eagle arms? We’re sky-diving with our shoulders!
Triangle whoosh-whoosh?
Side-body lengthening ,
Prayer twist? Squeezing out all the “I’m fine” lies like juicy lemons
Standing, sitting, or flat-on-the-floor with legs on the chair like a goddess,
we’re clearing the runway for your REAL voice to take off!
Side effects include sudden truth-bombs, random singing in the shower, and finally telling your group chat how you REALLY feel
Come play!
Drop a 🦅 if you’re ready to squawk your truth!

🌙 New Heart Chakra Flow just dropped ~ a little love letter to your tender, wild heart 💚

Unfurl into low lunges that bow to what’s ready to be released
Twist like you’re wringing sunlight out of every old story
Balance on one leg, roots sinking, wings remembering they were always there
And finally melt into yin ~ cat pulling its tail, curling into the softest yes you’ve ever given yourself

This one feels like laughter wrapped in rose petals.
Like forgiveness that tastes like honey.
Like coming home to the heart you thought you’d lost.
Move
Breath
Open
~ come play in the garden of your own heart centre 💞

May this flow open a thousand hearts (starting with yours) 🌸✨

🌞 ✨ A solar flare awakens within ✨ 🌞
Come, kindred flames,
the third chakra calls—
Manipura, golden wheel of fire.
We Breath in the sun,
we rise, we twist, we burn.
Core ignites,

reverse triangle spins the sky.
Step onto the mat,
claim the power that is yours.
the newest flow awaits.

Too close to the fires,
compassion and empathy
flare white-hot, searing
the marrow of my heart.

Compassion fatigue,
a slow ash settling in lungs.
Vicarious wounds
bleed through the skin of strangers.

Secondary stress
echoes like distant thunder
in the hollow of my ribs.
Moral injury;
a fracture no cast can mend.

Burnout,
the wick of me
gutted in its own smoke.

Yet the work is a lantern
swung into the dark,
draining and fulfilling
in the same breath.

Reserves run low,
but I keep the door cracked,
heart-forward, awakened
watching discord devour the world.

I teach hope to the hopeless
while battles rage unnamed.
Every day a skirmish
with shadows we can’t quite see.

So I breathe.
Keep the heart open,
mind fixed on the good.

Lend a hand.
Pet the dog.
Savor the small mercies.
Give Hugs.
Share your laughter.

Do the best with what you’ve got,
one kind act, one loving word,
one compassionate spark
is enough.

Let go the things you cannot steer.
Tip the balance toward kindness.
It matters.

The fire may lick too near,
but a single steady flame
can light the way home.
Take good care of that steady flame.

Drop in, rise up, let your spirit ignite

Breathe with your heart, become golden once more.

Layers of Growth

If it never feels hard, growth won’t show.
Effort, just right, bids your system to grow.
Not punishment, not exhaustion’s toll,
But challenge, the spark, to awaken the soul.

Go faster, go slower, make it bigger, add more,
Heavier loads or a twist to explore.
Yet complexity’s dance is the mind’s open door,
Engaging coordination, attention, and core.

A step meets a reach, a squat finds a twist,
An arm’s gentle spiral pairs with heel’s lift.
Combine what’s familiar, then shift, then reverse,
Feel simple turn vivid, as progress immerses.

Hard isn’t cruel—it’s the signal to learn,
A map for adaptation, where growth’s fire burns.
Life pulses in movement, in challenge’s embrace,
Movement is life—complexity’s grace.

"So proud of my daughter, Emerald, for launching Emerald Valley Therapy! 🌿 Her compassionate, integrative approach to counselling is truly inspiring. Check out her practice and share the love! 💚 "

Hello everyone!! My name is Emerald, welcome to Emerald Valley Therapy🙌🏼

🌿 Now Accepting Counselling Clients Across Canada 🌿

I’m so excited to officially launch my counselling practice as a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) graduate!

My work is grounded in a Person-Centered foundation, creating a warm, collaborative space where clients feel genuinely heard and supported. From this base, I take an integrative approach — blending evidence based therapies such as Internal Family Systems, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and some of you may be familiar with CBT practices. I do this to meet each person’s unique needs as I believe there is not a one size fits all to therapy😌

I support individuals navigating anxiety depression, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, difficulty setting boundaries, and the desire for personal clarity and empowerment. In sessions, we might explore difficult emotions, set future goals, or even find a moment to laugh — therapy isn’t always heavy. It’s about creating space for whatever shows up and working together to move toward clarity, confidence, and self-understanding 🌱 any pace and all versions of you are welcome 🤗

🕊️ Virtual sessions available for adults 18+ across BC, AB, SK, MB, NL, YT, NT, and NU
📩 email me: emeraldvalleytherapy@gmail.com or visit the links in my bio for more information.

Weird Moves, New Grooves
When I nudge your body to move in ways weird,
I spark up your brain, shake it free from the steer.
Muscles and joints, in fresh patterns they blend,
Break habits, wake reflexes, old ways to mend.

Strange moves call for focus, no cruising on rote,
Sense, shift, and explore,
every step’s a new note.
Walk slow, twist your head, trace a circle with flair,
Eyes, feet, balance dance in a rhythm so rare.

Arms swirl to one beat, hips sway to their own,
Brain knits new links where old limits were sown.
Same steps, same paths, just carve what you know,
But weird crafts the map where fresh pathways grow.

Awkward feels foolish, strange stirs up the soul,
That’s good—your system’s tuned, alive, and whole.
In odd, clumsy strides, coordination’s freed,
A rhythmic new pulse where your growth plants its seed.

Join us for a gentle yet effective yoga session designed for all levels, using a chair for support! This video guides you through a series of standing and se...

A Breath of Healing Awaits
In the quiet of your bones, a whisper hums,
Ancestral wisdom, where gratitude comes.
Breathe in light, let aches softly fade,
A journey through body, where peace is made.
Join me in this week’s meditation,
A poetic flow, a heart’s restoration.
Feel the vibration, let love seep deep,
Nurture your soul, in gratitude, steep.

📽️ Watch now on YouTube
Pause, breathe, heal—let your spirit sing.

Flexibility, Energy and Freedom for Every Body

A deep bow of gratitude to you, for letting curiosity guide you here ~ We have designed this site with you in mind, so that you know where and what I might be teaching, plus enjoy my videos and join in on my blog, which I have renamed ‘bogel’.

My intention is to create a space where we can feel a sense of unity, harmony and flow. I will share my take on yoga as a universal body language or art form, that is much more than simply poses. It is found in all our adventures through life, as we expose ourselves to new people, animals, places, rituals and environments.

My practice, my teachers, and my students have inspired me towards this jumping off point. A leap of faith with tons of breath to keep us filled to the top with inspiration. It is with great gratitude, deep humility and unbounded passion that I offer all I have learned to all who are interested and curious. So stay tuned for some weekly goodness via bogel (blog) for we will travel on this journey together, navigating the forever fluctuating sources of inspiration ~ LIFE ~

Your Twisted Sister,
