Twitter: Yoga Teacher Badass and Writer! It was blissful, hot, and life-changing!

Born and raised in difficult, sometimes violent circumstances. Rose above this to become a successful mother, career woman, and friend to all. I spent 21 days at an Ashram in Hawaii to get my Yoga Teacher certification. I write about spiritual topics, consider myself of the Christian faith - though more spiritual than religious. Everyone is a teacher in my opinion. Fortune and grace have put a lot of good mentors in my path. Sometimes what I write may stir people up, however, it is never to bash. Just to challenge as I am challenged daily in my journey. I do write about Christianity, however not exclusively. I will not criticize other faiths, love to study various philosophies, and tend to apply some of these into my daily life. Keeping an open mind to all other beliefs. Again, we can all learn from each other. Comments are welcome. I love discussions. Feel free to be real with me. I don't think I know it all and I love a good challenge of thought. I make the commitment to Kindly, Gently, Lovingly, and Supportively maintain inner peace. - E

Feeling tight from sitting all day?
Same, bestie. 

That’s why this short lower-body stretch sequence is my go-to midday reset and pre-bedtime routine.

No fancy gear needed—your scarf, belt, or random closet treasure works just as well as a yoga strap.

---
📱Scan the code at the end of this reel to watch the full episode.

We’re warming up with:
• Seated Staff Pose (Dandasana)
• Butterfly Pose
• Head-to-Knee Pose

All slow, all soothing, all designed to help your hips, hamstrings, and low back unclench from “chair-mode.”

And remember: we find the work—not the pain.

Yoga is not dramatic.
There is no crying in yoga.
(Okay maybe once… but not today.)

Watch the full sequence on YouTube  and stretch with me. Your body will thank you later. 

✨ Save this for later, share it with a friend who sits all day, and follow for more slow living + gentle yoga.

My Grand-Doug🐾 climbed a tree.

Then he got stuck.

When he came down he did a walk of shame.

Like we would judge him.

🌳I've never got stuck in a tree myself but I've fallen out of many tall ones!

Gut-Friendly Food of the Week: Chia Pudding 🥄✨

Some breakfasts demand energy.
This one gives it back.

Chia pudding is the kind of friend who knows your pace—
shows up ready, no pressure, no chaos, just quiet nourishment.

On low-spoon mornings, this is one of my go-to’s: simple, forgiving, and gentle on a tender stomach.

Each bite feels like a tiny act of self-respect.
A reminder that for spoonies, food isn’t “just food.”

It’s care.
It’s capacity. 
It’s a love letter to the body that keeps showing up.

And because I’m a nerd for a good kitchen tip—shoutout to for the method:

Mix your ingredients → let it sit 5 minutes → stir again so the seeds don’t sink → then jar it.

Place in the fridge and let time be your sous-chef.

By morning? Soft, soothing, and ready to support you.

Love

Last week?

My energy was so off a turtle would've smoked me in a race and still had time for a nap AND a snack. 🐢💤

So this week, I’m slowing it all the way down with a Morning Embodiment Scan — my go-to ritual for checking in with my body before the world starts asking for pieces of me.

If you woke up already out of spoons… this one’s for you. 💛

Some days I wobble.

Some days my energy dips so low I swear a houseplant has more stamina than me.
But here’s the truth I keep coming back to:

I still stand.

I still root myself in who I am.
I still rise, even if it’s slow.
I still hold space for the people I love and for the body I’m learning to listen to.

My branches bend, but they don’t break.
And I’m done pretending that makes me anything less than strong.

I’m good for something in this world—
and I’m not shrinking from that truth anymore.

If this hits… tell me one thing you stand for, even on your wobbly days. 🌿
