What are you doing for the Super Bowl? 💃🏻

Many professional football players include yoga in their training as they prepare for the Super Bowl.

Yoga supports mobility, balance, breath control, and mental focus, qualities that help athletes move more efficiently, recover faster, and stay resilient throughout a demanding season. From dynamic mobility flows to restorative recovery sessions, yoga has become a powerful complement to strength and conditioning programs across professional sports.

Peak performance is not only built through intensity, but also through recovery, awareness, and control. Whether on the field or in daily life, the integration of movement, breath, and presence can make the difference between pushing harder and performing smarter.

Championship preparation includes more than drills and weights. It also includes the mat. 🧘🏻‍♀️🏈

Let the FILES be a sacred call for women to gather in sisterhood, to support one another, and to take a solemn oath to never tear one another down. 🍒

Some mornings call for mushroom coffee.
Some mornings call for clarity.
This one asked for tea.

A place to write...

Design is not only about what you make.

Which color scheme feels best to you? A cool, airy blue or a warm, earthy beige. Surround yourself with items that soothe you and repurpose the rest.

Consider donating your items or offering them up on your local "Buy Nothing" group.

Sometimes the things we own anchor us and create a feeling of a heavy space. Mindfulness is more easily accessible when you create a space for it.

What is Sobi Art School?

It’s a very quiet, intentional art mentorship.

It’s not really about learning art skills.

It’s more about using art for reflection, self-study, and spiritual growth.

There’s one main pathway that’s invitation-based, and you meet the teacher first to see if it’s a fit.

Come see me at one of the events to see how I can serve your journey.

New books are live.
This collection reflects years of teaching, observing, photographing, and listening. Each title stands on its own, and together they form a quiet library for students, teachers, and practitioners who value depth over speed.

Poetic Ai for Yogis
A contemplative introduction to working with Ai as a reflective companion. This book invites slower prompts, ethical awareness, and thoughtful engagement, grounded in yogic principles rather than productivity culture.

The Art of Mindful Spaces
A design and observation guide for those who shape physical environments. Rooted in awareness, proportion, and care, it explores how space influences attention, behavior, and well-being.

Hatha Salutations
A practical and photographic exploration of classical hatha movements and transitions. Designed as a study and teaching reference, it emphasizes rhythm, alignment, and embodied understanding.

Yoga Asana Photography
A technical and artistic manual for documenting yoga postures with integrity. This book bridges teaching, photography, and visual literacy for educators and creatives alike.

Integrated Yoga Pathway
A comprehensive framework connecting philosophy, practice, and teaching methodology. Created to support long-term development rather than quick certification.

The Art of Yoga Asana
An in-depth visual and instructional study of posture as expression, inquiry, and craft. Focused on precision, presence, and respect for individual bodies.

A Glimpse of Yoga Workbook
A reflective companion designed for students in training. Includes prompts, space for integration, and guided inquiry to support personal practice.

A Glimpse of Yoga
An accessible overview of yoga philosophy and practice, written to orient newcomers and ground returning students in foundational ideas.

Grateful to everyone who reads, studies, and practices alongside this work. More to come, always with care.
