'There are no ordinary moments,' as Dan Millman would say. Every little bit of life has its hidden, or apparent, offering. It can all be a lesson. Can we show up as the humble student?

Get curious about every thought moving through, every sensation in the body, every life situation that stirs up the heart.

Radical acceptance of self, what a concept. 🙏🏽

With the way our society conditions us, it takes PRACTICE to cultivate this type of acceptance.

It’s possible — you get to give yourself the permission to be as you are in every one of your phases and expressions. Allow the practices of Yoga to guide you into self love & self acceptance.

It’s one of the most powerful investments you can make in yourself 🤍

It might not seem like it when we're in it, but identity crisis is a gift. It's an opportunity to step back and see the exactly how we've been identifying, and decide, does this still serve me?

Do I need to pick another identitity up?
What if I picked absolutely nothing up?

Although our mind roots our reality within our perspectives and preferences, when life shakes things up, we have the option to re-evaluate and inquire within.

Let's take a looksy at the masks we where, and open our hearts to the opportunities that allow us to shed them.🤍🎭🤍

Explore your depth. Lets leave the surface level conversations aside for now and go deeper. Go beyond thought and beyond identification with the person.

Yoga can guide you deconstruct what arises at the surface to invite in expansion & depth. 🤍

The path of enlightenment is supported from our concentration of mind. At all times, our intention & attention is to be abiding within our underlying nature.

The tendency of the mind is to get continuously distracted by all that is NOT us — the changing phenomena. The path of Yoga is to realize what is Truly us — the eternal self.

Understanding this, Patañjali’s Yoga Sutras identify a variety of obstacles from Mind that we need to be aware of, which can interfere with our ability to maintain focused intention, curiosity, and sustained self-inquiry.

What are obstacles that interfere to awakening to our True Nature?

🪷vyādhi: dis-ease

🪷styāna: dullness

🪷saṁśaya: doubt

🪷pramāda: carelessness

🪷ālasya: laziness

🪷avirati: clinging to sensory pleasures

🪷bhrānti: incorrect perception

🪷darśana: seeing

🪷alabdha: failure to attain

🪷bhūmikatva: ground

🪷anavasthitatvāni: failure to maintain

🪷citta: mind

🪷vikṣepaḥ: distractions

🪷te: these

🪷antarāyaḥ: obstacles

These obstacles singled out by Patañjali, in and of themselves, are not the problem. It becomes an obstacle when our mind’s tendency to identify with them, and become distracted by, these, and other changing states of body and mind.

When the mind is attuned & controlled, we are capable of distinguishing between what is changing and what is unchanging. What is us and not us. Through the practices offered by Patañjali in the eightfold path of Yoga, we can purify the body and mind of the tendency to become distracted and forgetful. These will no longer be obstacles on our path .

Dive into the areas of discomfort.
Take the invitation of sensation and let it be an anchor into the here & now.

We can choose to be with these arising circumstances, WITHOUT judgement, WITHOUT preferences.

There's nothing to chase after, no comfort or pleasure to seek. Wouldn't that be an incredible attitude to take on? Nothing could really phase you if you just let it all come and go, choosing a stance of unwavering, equanimous presence.

Savasana ✨💀🖤

Savasana translates to co**se pose. The power of this pose is directly related to the practice of dying.

The intention of our Yoga practice isn’t to acquire more things, an esthetic, a new identity, etc. Yoga is a practice of letting go of the veils that obstruct the knowing of ourselves as already whole, divine, and enlightened. Yoga helps us to remember by guiding us to let go of our attachments.

While the body and subtle body benefit from the movement and purification of asana, the deepest intention of yogic practices can only be realized when we become still. It’s in savasana that we release all doing, in both body and mind.

Savasana is then the practice of death. Death of the ego, death of all craving, grasping, and aversion. In savasana, we practice being with all that is, while we rest as consciousness itself — unaffected by the coming and goings of life.

Savasana marks the death of who we were when we first walked into our yoga class. Every practice we go through is a death of our old self and therein lies an opportunity to reawaken anew.

Did you know this meaning about Savasana?🌹

Simplify. Enjoy the simple things in life. The birds chirping, the body moving with breath. Engage with your senses and make this a simply luscious experience.

Every movement is a chance to celebrate the gift of individual consciousness.

Movements Begin Within

Welcome to a community of yogis; making moves to embody the most authentic version of themselves.

'What version of myself is that?!’you may be asking...

Picture you in your favorite element— surrounded by the world’s tallest trees, bathing in a jungle waterfall, surfing the oceans flow, whichever scene suits your vibe.

It is that fulfilling AND overflowing bliss we aim to reach on a daily basis. Those oh-so temporary glimpses--That’s the real you.
