🌸8 Limbs🌸

The radically liberating thing about yoga is that it can be practiced in every moment.

Not because you’re going to start doing headstands on the bus..

But because yoga encompasses 8limbs and depending on our circumstances we can lean more or less heavily into one or the other and know that we are still ‘doing our practice’.

The last couple of weeks I’ve swapped my mat for weights- my postures look a little different. 🤣 less graceful for sure.

And that in itself walks me through a new dimension of Yamas(how we relate to others) and Niyamas (how we relate to ourselves), into new avenues of Pranayama (breathing) and into new spaces of balanced contentment, mindfulness and absorption and meditation.

Whatever the stage production- the practice continues 🤘🏽

And gosh that feeling of home when you land back on the familiarity of your mat!

I’ll be heading overseas for my dad’s funeral in the next few weeks.

Final classes before I go are
Wednesday 4pm Hatha, 5pm Vinyasa
Sunday 715am Vinyasa

💫Maybe it was the Full Moon?
💫Maybe it’s me getting to page 9 of Women Who Run with the Wolves.
💫Maybe I have a tiny bit more capacity than I did before.

But something is shifting.

What keeps me small? What keeps me silent?

Fear, Safety, Lack of Capacity despite my infinite Privilege.

And then there is Noble Silence. The discernment and power in silence- when speaking from ignorance just causes more harm.

Skillful Action. Right Speech.

And I’m working it out- unpacking and being real with my own fear. With my own discernment. And which is which.

Holding My Own.

Energy
Happiness
Freedom

What would I say if I were to speak?

I’d say I want to dance and be big.
I want to love.
I want to say that I can’t stomach the politics of war and I have strong beliefs about it.
That I can’t stomach violence and I want it to stop. Especially against women and children.

I want to rant, rave, sing and laugh.

What keeps you small?
What keeps you silent?

💔❤️ I love you 💔❤️💫

Two weeks ago I lost me dear sweet daddy. He was a teddy bear- gentle, calm, steady and saw joy and playfulness in all life.

My dad and I met in Spirituality. We both gained deeply from religious philosophy, from the ambience of nature, from the beauty of our world.

I remember walking into his office as a teenager and seeing him on the floor with his feet in a Chi machine 😂

We went to yoga and church together in Bahamas- moving beyond dogma into the spirit.

And now you are spirit. Whatever that means. You are free and I miss you, I have missed you, for so long.

My dad went to Cambridge to study Latin American studies before anyone really knew where that was. He moved to Costa Rica when he was in his twenties and remained in Latin America and the Caribbean for the rest of his life.

✨travel ✨ spirituality ✨ learning forever ✨ friendship ✨ kindness ✨ small group at church ✨ rotary ✨ parties ✨ good food ✨family

When I hold my hands together I feel your warm teddy bear hands.

Thank you - for being the gentlest father a daughter could ask for.

I love you, I miss you❤️✨

🧘🏽‍♂️ Surrender, Balance and Intention 🧘🏽‍♂️

🌑🪷 so bad news - our house did not sell at auction last night. Eep!

Over the last two weeks my body has experienced the constant rise and fall of panic, fear, excitement and grief. On Thursday I spent the whole day watching Netflix and meditating just trying to attend to myself in bite-sized pieces and then distracting myself when moving beyond my capacity to regulate.

Really helpful strategy actually! I recommend it!

🪷Today we get the keys to our new house, our new chapter as a family and there is peace in my heart. As well as the rest.
🪷Today the planets align, Ramadan begins for those who practice, we enter the crescent moon.
🪷but, really, every day is an opportunity to bring surrender, balance and intention to our lives. How? By practicing stillness, by being real, by cultivating awareness and acknowledgement to all that arises— and then by letting go.

🌕💫✨ May the planets align for us all- and may we feel steadied in faith (whatever that means to us) that all is just as it should be 🌜

Drop me a 🧘🏽‍♂️ if you’d like info on our July Winter Retreats- Philosophy Yoga Retreat and Silent Retreat.

⚡️Pavamana Mantra ⚡️

“Lead me from illusion to truth, from darkness to light, and from death to immortality.”- Brihanyadakar Upanisad.

I.Am.Pure.

This is a healing Sanskrit Mantra of Purification.

Stabat Mater - “there stood the mother” (this music by pergolesi) Close your eyes and listen!

There stood the mother as she watched her son, a part of her, die on the cross.

Within me there is a dark woman. She is the madness of my female line. Generations of women tethered in rage over unmet needs, crossed boundaries and more. She has a space now within me. These days I’ve started to listen to her murmurings before she shouts- usually. Today, she pepped up.

And there stood the mother.

Watching..

It is the introduction of this mother of light- with all that she witnesses and bears- that helps me, usually, to surrender to the tides of death and rebirth with a bit more grace than I was able today.

So, I pray, in my own way.

And there stood the mother 🙏🏽

Om Asatoma Sadgayama Tamasoma Jyotir Gayama Mrityorma Amritam Gayama.

🙏🏽 🙏🏽

Wishing everyone peace, grace and kindness as they navigate what arises on this Easter Wknd ❤️ the light, the darkness and the in between!
