With the essential oil craze bubbling over, let's have a serious talk about the good, the bad, and everything in between. This lovely article sums up the risks that the MLMs don't tell you.

And yes, I love my EOs just as much as the next person but they must be respected and used safely

I never wanted to be a Yoga Teacher. Ever. But how was I going to deepen my practice?

Ever feel like you want to dive deeper into your Own Personal Practice but unsure if a Yoga Teacher Training is Your next step because:

Too Much or Too Overwhelming
You Have to Want to be a Teacher
You Won't be able to Keep Up
You'll Get Lost in it All
or
Take Away from the Other Student's Experience?

These trainings are designed to support every person no matter where they are on their journey. Whether it's deepening your practice, learning a new style or technique, becoming a Yin Yoga facilitator, meeting like-minded people and sharing a unique experience, a training can be powerful for anyone and everyone!!

These are some of the reasons I keep ever training small and intimate so that I can address all learning styles, experience levels and goals of the group. It also keep a safe and open space for students to explore the depths of their being and practice.

**Remember, no one will ever experience life the way you do, you will be able to offer something unique and powerful whether it's through the questions you ask, the insight you offer or the energy you show up with.

If you want to learn more about what happens on a Yin Yoga Teacher Training, I would LOVE to chat :)

I am so thrilled to introduce you to the latest project that stemmed from the love and passion of all things empowerment, embodiment, and self-discovery.

We started The Re-Human Movement because we truly believe that in order to make change, we must begin within. To influence the external environment, we must nourish and cultivate the power of our internal landscape.

Developing your personal power means digging deep, getting very real, and committing wholeheartedly to challenge, discomfort and uncertainty in the name of unapologetic growth and authenticity.

Learning to openly communicate, set compassionate boundaries, live from a place of kindness AND put yourself first can be uncharted territory for some, but absolutely achievable for all.

But first, we must uncover what it is that you TRULY want on a visceral level to fully step into that power...ready?

Be well & Live loud,

Brain is happy & Heart is full!
Thank you so much to Aro Hā for having me and to the incredible people who showed up honestly and openly to talk about Stress, it's impact and how we can mindfully work with and through it ✨

🧠🧘🏼‍♀️ Did you know that GABA, a common neurotransmitter in the brain, has been shown to increase when we engage in mindfulness?

GABA helps to slow down brain activity and reduce the stress response, similar to what the parasympathetic nervous system does.

By staying aware of the quality and capacity of our thoughts, emotions and habits throughout our day we can mindfully choose how we respond and behave in different (and quite often stressful) situations and experiences.

When we feel a stressful or overwhelming situation begin to evoke a reaction we can choose to breathe a more rhythmic, deep and oceanic type breath (4 second inhale, hold for 1, 4 second exhale, hold for 1) which has been proven to engage the parasympathetic nervous system and evoke a more restful response within the body 🧠🧘🏼‍♀️

Interesting read on Nutritional Psychiatry and how we can make changes to our overall health through the use of food. Sounds simple, yet many people are still quick to jump on the medication bandwagon.

Do not get me wrong, there is absolutely always a time and place for Western medicine and the medications it provides.

"It is now known that many mental health conditions are caused by inflammation in the brain which ultimately causes our brain cells to die. This inflammatory response starts in our gut and is associated with a lack of nutrients from our food such as magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics, vitamins and minerals that are all essential for the optimum functioning of our bodies.

Recent research has shown that food supplements such as zinc, magnesium, omega 3, and vitamins B and D3 can help improve people’s mood, relieve anxiety and depression and improve the mental capacity of people with Alzheimer’s."

💭What foods make you feel healthy, alert and energetic? Let me know! 👇

A growing body of scientific evidence is making clear the connection between good nutrition and good mental health.
