The thing about grief is that it takes it's own time to journey thru it.

And grief journey is a nice term that we use to say "find the way back to a sense of new normal as the days carry on".

In a few days it will mark 6 months since my incredible husband left this realm, and i spent most of the time in that 6 months finding comfort in solitude, allowing myself the time and space to rest and digest all that has happened.

But I made him a promise that I would continue to live fully- for him- and for me.

So I'm also blooming with the rest of the flowers in southern Massachusetts. Out for walks in the woods, nightly mediation, and staying committed to daily yoga and pranayama practice.

But here's the truth- it's still hard to push thru and do it. Even making it down the hall to my beautiful yoga room is too difficult sometimes.

A mat next to the bed with the dog toys and laundry that needs to be put away is sufficient. Yes. That is enough.

As I practice my muscles remind me how much I have been closed off & boarded up. When I breathe into these spaces and get to know them once again, I'm filled with tears. For myself, for him, for remembering how to live, for blooming like a spring flower- as I also emerge from the cold dark winter.

📅 It's almost that time of month again!

The time that we slow down, breathe, and go inward. Finding clarity within, and carry it forward to the coming weeks. Planting seeds and trusting they will bloom as meant to be 🌷

🌬 Breathwork is an active mediation which is intended to wake and shake up your nervous system, allowing you tap into your greater consciousness and release energy from your body & mind before returning to homeostasis. This conscious connected breathing technique is done lying down, in a continuous 3-part breath for about 30 minutes, with a 15 minute integration & sound healing at the end. During her sessions Ashlyn uses reiki, sound, and oils, to aid in opening the heart, and clearing & grounding your energy. This is an intense and active mediation, which vivaciously & energetically charges the body and opens the mind to journey in a self-induced mind-altering voyage, offering the space for you to explore your conscious and subconscious while remaining in the safety of your body and breath.

🧦Wear comfortable clothes, bring water, yoga mat, blanket, optional to have lip balm, a journal, and eye pillow if it calls to you.

🕝 Please arrive at least 10 minutes early to settle in and we can start in a timely manner.

👋 it's been a while since I've posted here.

I've been navigating life and loss and everything in between.

My husband lost his battle to cancer in October, and since then I've been trying to keep one foot in front of the other. But the reality is, I've done such a good job at that- that I've hardly made time & space to be in my own body.

And to be really honest, everything is new and scary.

The grief that I carry now wasn't there before, and I need to make space for it in my being. Slowing down is one of the scariest things for me right now, but I know it's how I'm going to continue to find acceptance.

Today I stepped on my mat. I moved, and breathed, and it was SO intentional to be here in this moment. I also had the chance to smile thanks to my playful pup kiwi, and it felt light and welcoming.

The simple things, right?

This is the next step in my journey, my next piece of life to navigate, the next trial of coming back to myself. It's important that I continue to lean into what I know, and not to abandon myself in my time of need.

If you're struggling too, I see you. Stay on the path and continue to give yourself that love ❤️

Breathing into big astral events! New Moon & Fall Equinox guide the energy.
🔸️🔸️🔸️
September Solar Eclipse in Virgo is a new beginning infused with destiny, an initiation into refinement, healing, and alignment. Eclipses accelerate evolution, and here, the call is to examine the structures of our lives: the habits, the routines, the foundations that support us.

Virgo reminds us that wholeness is found not in perfection, it is found in authenticity. Seeds planted now are karmic, though their unfolding may be gradual, they mark a shift in alignment with purpose.

This eclipse may feel like a cleansing, a recalibration, or a sudden reorientation toward what truly serves your path. Release the pressure of perfection and open to devotion – devotion to growth, to service, to the practices that allow your soul to thrive in form.

This eclipse clears what is unaligned so that your vessel – body, mind, and spirit – can hold more of your authentic light.
🔸️🔸️🔸️
The Equinox is a sacred threshold – equal day and night, light and dark, a cosmic pause where balance becomes the medicine. It is a moment of reflection, of standing at the midpoint between seasons, between stories, between who we have been and who we are becoming.

The Equinox reminds us that harmony is not static, it is living, breathing alignment. Step consciously across this threshold, and let balance renew you.

For the second time in my life, I've found a four leaf clover 🍀✨️

A message from my Irish ancestors? Perhaps!

But here's the message that this clover sent to me;

Keep seeking- hold the hope that what you seek, one day you will find. Just because it's not there when you look the first or 100th time, doesn't mean it won't be there eventually.

Believe- even when it feels magical, mystical, and silly. Let your the playfulness and childlike wonder take ahold sometimes. Allow it to slow you down so you can explore with curiosity.

Luck- is it really just luck, or do we make our own luck by putting the intentions out into the universe? That's for you to ponder but maybe, just maybe, what we put out is part of what we receive.

Love- once you find what you seek, cherish it, bask in gratitude, and fully feel the cheer that it's brought with it. That is truly the magic ✨️

Time to breathe 🌬

For you

For the collective

To release

To regain

🌬 Last full moon breathwork until the fall, we'll switch into utilizing the breath to manifest with the new moon (but don't worry- we always leave room for releasing in breathwork 😊)

You know those moments?

Where you're stressed, exhausted, physically & mentally feeling it-

And then you create the space. Get on your mat, light the incense, put on the music. Stretch. Breathe. Create the space.

Then the world offers cotton candy sunset clouds, and they take their sweet time floating on by-

And joy and gratitude settle in, and for some moments, everything just is.

Yeah, those moments are delightful 💕
