In Flow and Free

What resonates for you when you read this quote by Bell Hooks?

✨I know what hear is accountability to show up in my connections, any of my connections with LOVE.

✨I would love to read your thoughts.

✨For February’s , we’re is (go figure) but really…we’re on the quest for the love within ourselves that is both near and far, real and unimaginable. We’re curiously seeking to be with a love we don’t ever get to express or know of. We’re in the search for the many loves that invite us to dig deep and touch the edges of all that blocks us from growing a love that we long for. Self love, healing love, and the fullest expression of humanly love that has the capacity to fill our cups and of those around us. It is a love that says I see you and that you matter. A love that fills our hearts and expands our connection…and therefore all of our possibilities.

💛What’s does love mean to you? (Share your words with us in the comments or you can DM us if you choose to be private)

📕In light of this exploration and in honor of the brilliant Bell Hooks who passed in December, we will be referring to her book “All About Love” which challenges us all to open our minds as well as our hearts to how we view and heal within the power of love.

🧘🏻Also, tomorrow at 8:30am(ct) will be guiding a morning mediation. Go to our LINKTREE to join the Zoom.

“In the beginners mind there are many possibilities, in an expert mind there are few.”

~ from Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind by Shunryu Suzuki

How can we begin with others?

Maybe; We practice to begin from now, in our moments to moments we connect to our breath. Allow our breath to be our guide to soften & freshen the mind. Clearing the mind of unwanted thoughts and bringing ourselves to an awareness of compassion. And maybe we can begin again, over and over, every time. Maybe, we can feel love and air out the need to know or control. So when we cross paths and connect, we are growing ourselves as we are and as we want to be within our communities.

There’s is no means to finding the way when beginning again, you starts with compassion. And we can simply access compassion for others with our breath or mantras of/like; there’s nothing to change or know here, I am new and I am learning.

👉🏽Come join me and amazing life partner In continuing to grow our curiosities and exploration in how we can connect with our communities in our beginner’s mind. 👈🏾

Waaat up! My beautiful people.

How are ya’ll feelin’ ????

I have to say this month as had it’s moments of bringing relief into my life. This month I committed to deepened my exploration in creating ways to growing freedom in my life. By listening to the moments that called for me to say ‘No, I don’t want this anymore and creating boundaries by being in my practice of releasing my breath and the tension in my jaw. I listened to what has been calling for me to see what has not been fitting in my life anymore and I then made a choice (that was of one I avoided doing for years). I have to say since making this choice, it has truly granted me the freedom and space to see all of my blessings and then create the space I needed to receive all the blessings. Everything I worked for and everything I have been growing now has the freedom to bloom.

Hard moments need space to breath + A mindful practice to hear my voice speak to me what is needed in the moment + Setting boundaries

= Freedom

We are on this Sunday for our Mindful Morning flow. Virtually bringing you a morning full of growing our freedom through grounding into meditation at 9am with then finding what freedom feels like in our bodies thru yoga with then we end our morning with a thoughtful conversation around what does freedom looks like in our communities? How can we create, grow and make space for our communities to see and feel freedom?

You are welcome to choose any one of these offerings with you do not choose them all.

These are open experience classes which means you simply start where you are.

9am Meditation
10am Yoga
11am R&R call

All calls are in central times

It's been a minute yall, and we're back from an enriching podcast hiatus to offer you a mini audio series we call "Sitting With Intention." These are lil gems and nuggets of inspiration and intention that have been living through us lately. These intentions stir up all the feels and explorations of what's been happening in Briana and Vanessa's lives. We share, we question, and challenge how we navigate various aspects and facets of what it truly means to learn how to live, as we are and as we can be.

This week's Intention is a personal share on Freedom from Briana Fails. All throughout July, Vanessa and Briana have been exploring the movements of freedom, and often lack of, in their relationships and within themselves. This share is a minute snapshot of Briana's experiences, as she reflects on what freedom feels and looks like and how this freedom, and all its movements, are shifting and shaping her own life, flowing far beyond her own nourishment.

Tune into more lil gems with The In Flow & Free Podcast.

To join us at our online donation-based meditation, yoga, and communal sharing this Sunday (July 25, 2021) beginning at 9:30am CST.

Hey Beautiful people.

We are back in Nola! This weekend & are creating space and connection. We invite y’all to come thru to as we move, soften and ground.

I don’t know about y’all but June has definitely shifted the ground beneath me. Waking me up to recreating and regrowing new boundaries. It felt as if Mother Nature had grabbed me by the root of my feet and vigorously shook me. To release some energy draining dead leaves off of me. In efforts to free myself of the extra load I was carry.

With that said, we’re grateful and excited to be generating some collective care . We have created a few offerings to show yourself some TLC.

So come thru as we move through yoga and settle into meditation.

We have multiple opportunities on Saturday and Sunday. Space is limited so that we can be in our practice safely.
