Integration is the real purification 🌿

The Bhagavad Gītā (6.15) reminds us: 🕉 Yogī yuktaḥ viśuddhātmā “The yogi is purified and integrated.”

The journey isn’t about becoming perfect — it’s about becoming whole.

We have so many ways to purify the body, but what about the mind????

cleansing doesn’t come from just detoxing the body — it also comes from enlightening the mind. 🌿

The Bhagavad Gītā (4.38) reminds us: 🕉 Na hi jñānena sadṛśaṁ pavitram “Nothing is more purifying than knowledge.”

When we grow in knowledge (and wisdom), we see ourselves and life more clearly. And that clarity — that light — is what purifies everything.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments below 👇

This week’s Monday Message explores: ✨ How wisdom dissolves ignorance ✨ Why knowledge transforms fear into peace ✨ How learning becomes a path to liberation

It’s your time! To step into your power! I am talking to yoga teachers, wellness practitioners, health and wellness coaches…. All you light leaders out there

I have heard from many of you, and I know you WANT and desire growth in your craft, growth in your audience and clientele, and growth in your ability to draw in abundance

I know that there are a lot of courses out there that tell you that you need better marketing … but marketing doesn’t work if you aren’t clear on your messaging

I know there are coaches who will tell you that you need to know who your ideal client is and structure your brand to that, but it won’t work if you aren’t clear on your values, and your vision

All the “business” stuff is great… but if you aren’t aligned on the inside, if you aren’t clear on your vision, if you aren’t grounded in your values…. It won’t be sustainable… and it will definitely be a hot mess of a journey that will take you a lot longer than it needs to

I am speaking from experience!
And I designed this 10 week container to support you light leaders to get exceptional clarity, connection to your values, and put words and ideas on paper that support your mission and desire for impact

You scaling up isn’t going to come from another certificate …. It’s going to come from powerful alignment !!!

Let’s do the work !!!

Join me for this 10 week container - I have 20 years of experience in this field of work and business as I have walked my own path of growth - as a massage therapist, Ayurvedic practitioner, yoga teacher, yoga studio owner and single mom….. I’ve learned a ton…

Let me pour it into you …

Comment Light Leader and I’ll DM you the link - let’s get you enrolled ! We start Friday !!! 🤩

This week’s Monday Message explores: 🌿 Why service is central to dharma 🌿 How helping others expands the heart 🌿 Why giving creates meaning beyond success 🌿 How service uplifts both giver and receiver

🎥 Watch the full video on YouTube (link in bio)

Life will always rise and fall. The real yoga is staying steady in the storm. Type 💯if you know what I mean!

The Bhagavad Gītā (2.48) reminds us: 👉 “Samatvam yoga ucyate” Equanimity is yoga.
Krsna tells Arjuna to live his life with equipoise, without being attached in success or failure - and that this equanimity is called yoga !!

Equanimity doesn’t mean shutting down or not caring — it means staying rooted, balanced, and clear no matter what’s happening around you.

In this week’s Monday Message, we explore how: 🌿 Equanimity = inner balance amidst change ⚖️ Don’t swing wildly with success or failure 🌊 Centered-ness creates clarity in decision-making 💪 Balance is strength, not indifference 🧘 True yoga is the art of being centered everywhere

✨ Imagine what could shift if you stopped getting pulled into extremes — and instead practiced staying anchored, calm, and present.

Stop waiting for someone else to save you, fix it for you, solve it for you, do it for you….
 The Bhagavad Gītā reminds us: 👉 “Uddhared ātmanātmānaṁ” One should uplift oneself by oneself. (6.5)

This is one of the most empowering teachings in yoga philosophy.
 It’s not about isolation — it’s about remembering that the greatest power to transform your life is already within you.

In this week’s Monday Message, we explore how: 🌟 Taking responsibility = reclaiming your power 🧘 No one else can walk your path for you 💛 Inner work is the foundation of outer change ⚡ Owning your choices dissolves victimhood ✨ Uplifting yourself becomes an inspiration for others

The path is yours to walk — and your rise lights the way for those around you.

Ever feel weighed down by the pressure of results? The Gītā reminds us that freedom isn’t found in controlling outcomes—it’s found in how we show up.

✨ Here are 5 keys to practicing non-attachment in action:
1. Detach from results, attach to effort.
2. True freedom = doing your best without clinging.
3. Outcomes are shaped by many forces, not just you.
4. Attachment breeds anxiety, detachment breeds peace.
5. Non-attachment allows joy in the process.

🌱 Modern Life Examples: – In Work: Show up to serve, not to chase applause. – In Relationships: Love freely, without demanding return. – In Life: Act with integrity, then let go.

👉 Swipe through today’s carousel for the full Monday Message.
 📩 DM me the word EFFORT and I’ll send you a free journal prompt PDF to help you explore where non-attachment could bring you more peace and freedom. 
💛 Save + share this with someone who needs the reminder to trust the process.

The joy is in the doing. 🌸
