                            PRACTICES TO SUPPORT YOUR LIFE

Some days this is all I want.

Some days this is all I need.

Some days I completely forget that it’s all right here — in the simplicity of this very moment. 

And some days I remember the possibility of this — of being completely empty and simultaneously filled with aliveness — but it feels so very far away. Like the most distant memory. Those days are the hardest — being conscious of my unconsciousness and yet unable to fully wake up.

The distortions of the mind seem so real and so right. 

But they’re not. They are keeping us from seeing clearly and experiencing the preciousness of this moment; where we can feel the wholeness of being fully alive.

Here's a simple, in-the-moment meditation to support you in bringing your full attention into the direct experience of this moment:

>> The Form & The Fill <<

Feel the ground beneath you;

Rest into it as it rises to meet your form;

Sense the vitality within you - that which fills the form;

Rest and soften the form;

Notice the fill as it expands and dissolves anything and everything keeping it stuck or blocked;

Feel the breath’s relationship to the expansion and dissolving;

Do it all again…
With Love,

Yoga is BACK!

2024 RETREAT Announcement! 

Save the Dates:

April 18-21 & Oct 18-20

Yep - that's correct! I am thrilled to announce that -- after receiving several requests over the years -- I will be offering TWO retreats in 2024!

The Spring Retreat will be April 18-21 at Heartstone Lodge & Retreat Center and will be the retreat you all know and love - a larger, dynamic, 3 night / 4 day wellness retreat centered around yoga, meditation, time in nature and connection with community, and incredible food by our beautiful Shell Bailey. This retreat will be open to all - stay tuned for registration announcement in late 2023!

The Fall Retreat will be October 18-20, also at Heartstone and with food by Shell, will be an intentionally smaller, more intimate 3 day / 2 night retreat container that will center around meditation, deeper inner work and will have an emphasis on silence. This retreat will be by application and open to current or past meditation students and/or 1:1 or group coaching clients. Stay tuned for details.

Small Group Coaching

*NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR FALL COHORT*

Small Group Coaching is intentionally designed for individuals who are looking to make a specific, tangible change in their lives and want highly-individualized coaching that is meaningful and unique to them while having the game-changing support of others on a similar path.

Small Group coaching
- reduces the individual investment making it more financially accessible 

- allows individuals to work in the context of a consistent, committed group which allows for much-needed connection with others and a depth of learning from each other's experiences 

- provides an additional container for accountability

- develops meaningful and authentic community over time

Groups will consist of 4-6 individuals and will meet every other week for 12 sessions (6 months). Dates and meeting times will be determined by each cohort prior to starting.

APPLY FOR SMALL GROUP COACHING

**LAST CALL**

Registration closes Sept 1

My Annual Wellness Retreat will be October 26-29  at the beautiful Heartstone Lodge, nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Maury River in Buena Vista, Virginia. 

Though on-site accommodations are completely full, I have a handful of Day Retreat spaces available! The Day Retreat is an option to stay off-site but to join us for all meals (Shell is back so we are all in for a TREAT!), daily yoga & meditation, and enjoyment of the incredible land at Heartstone.

You are responsible for securing your own accommodations (there are many Airbnbs in the area as well as some great hotel options in Lexington). So invite some friends to join you and I'll take care of the rest!

Don't miss your chance to join us for an incredible experience.
