Thirty-Minute Life Change

Enlightenment

So we’ve spent twelve weeks together. We must have attained full Nirvana or Enlightenment by now, right? Of course, the journey has just begun! We end in much the way we began: with setting intentions but looking beyond to consider how we’d like to show up in the world.

Look Out

We’ve spent the last TEN WEEKS going within; now it’s time to start to look to the world around us. This can be very challenging, so we’ll take it slowly and our yoga flow will help us open up to all life has to offer!

Go Deeper

This week, we’ll build on last week’s practice to explore where we’re holding — tension, emotion, fear — and begin the (lifelong) practice of release. WARNING: This week’s journal practice, in particular, can get a little dark. So if you’re someone who struggles with depression or if you feel it all getting a little too […]

Integration

Part Two For the last seven weeks, whether you know it or not, we have been working through the seven primary chakras of yoga/Hindu practice. The Chakras are energy centers that a slew of Eastern philosophies embrace. Frankly, they make a lot of sense. Very briefly put, they are “wheels” located at several points along […]

Bliss Out

Time to bliss out! The past six weeks have lead us to this moment: building from the ground up to the part of us that is most-connected to the Divine. I know that’s a mushy sounding word, but it’s the best one I have.

Trust Your Gut

Whom do you trust most in the world? If you answered anything except “myself,” this week is made for you! This week, we’ll spend some time trying to trust our own instincts and intuition.

Find Your Voice

How do you express yourself? Many of us who were “raised right” think that it’s polite to keep quiet or that being liked is more important than being heard. I think these days, that’s even trickier because we’re always hearing a lot from people who over-share — whether face-to-face or on social media. People who […]

Listen to Your Heart

As you wrap up your first month, let’s come into a lighter space of love and gratitude. I don’t mean romantic love (necessarily) but the spirit of generosity and kindness that permeates all aspects of creation. Call it the Prana, Chi or the Holy Spirit: it’s all the energy that connects us to creation.

Who Am I?

Who are you? Now that you’re a few weeks in, let’s try to arrive fully in the present moment to connect with and honor our intuition and intention.

Ignite Your Passion

Welcome to week three! How’s it going? Last week, we spent time connecting with the important energies of our past. This week, you’ll come even more fully into the present to consider what drives you: what do you really value? I don’t mean material stuff (although it’s nice to have nice things): I mean what […]

Rooting to Rise

This week, we connect with — and find gratitude for — our roots. That might mean the family that raised you. It might mean ancestors whose stories resonate. Or might be your chosen family.

Setting Intention

As we embark on our twelve weeks together, take some time to consider how you want to show up. Do you hope this to be the beginning of a longer, more sustained practice? Or are you just giving yourself a little reset? As you consider this, how often do you want to practice? Will you […]

Basics / Getting Started

If you’ve never done yoga or meditated, they can be daunting, so here are a couple of reviews to help you feel more confident. You’ll see the three tabs below. This is exactly how your course chapters will work, so click below for a little preview.

Materials, Supplies and Fun Stuff

I want to be super clear from the outset: you don’t need anything (except 30 minutes a week and a good attitude), but if you’re new to any of these practices, or if investing in some special things will help get you excited, here is stuff I like… Yoga Stuff In general, I really like […]
