Practice with devotion what it is that elevates you, moves you, changes you.
That is self love.
Mine is nidra. It was, and is, the homecoming to myself. The gentle reminder that I am enough. For that, I’m eternally grateful.
None of that possible without my commitment to it. If you know something changes you, strengthens you, why is it hard to choose it each day?
I hear it often. I forget, or I don’t have time.
What I really hear - I’m more committed to yesterday than I am to tomorrow.

The unwanted is always pointing you in the direction of what is wanted. Pressure filled time for relationships, specifically friendships. If you’re feeling this, give her a listen

Triggers are incredibly personal. This is how I used a trigger to bring me back to myself
(even if it does seem very first world problem, it was real to me)
Today I practiced yoga and got incredibly triggered - angry, righteous, judgmental…
helpless
not seen
invisible
I was late getting there and got a tiny spot in the middle row, against the wall. Both yogis at the top and bottom of my mat were close to the center and my Extra Large B Mat (which is obnoxiously large) didn’t fit. I had to roll the end to make myself fit and this was the beginning of the swirl of sensations that led to a massive trigger.
The yogi in front of me was beautiful with incredibly long legs, a graceful practice……and she was right in my vision.

(not all of you will resonate with this fear, this is for those that are like me)
Some days you’re meant to meditate, and some days you’re meant to remember you’re human
These days come to remind you that you’re actually afraid of being fully Spirit, because you are afraid to die.
Even talking about death scares me. I’ve been afraid of it ever since I was little. I don’t remember having conversations or anything like that with ghosts, but I always knew they were present.

WHO AM I? This is a question I ask myself often in meditation. Who am I today, in this moment? In this life, I a blessed mother to teenagers becoming men, a yogi who delights in the spiritual side of the practice, an energy worker as my innate gift - my true calling. Throughout my journey, I have been gifted the circumstances, heartbreak, modalities, understanding and teachings to position myself as an Intuitive Guide, Aligned Life Coach and HIGH VIBE Educator.
I’ve been facilitating healing journeys for years now. Through the path of Yoga Nidra, I’ve found my true self and continue to pursue my souls calling of being an Energy Educator. This education comes in an unconventional way and it’s taken me years to understand what I’m to do with it. This work is SACRED. This work is IMPORTANT. It is a CALLING.
In my one on one sessions, my clients have felt some serious shifts, in only ONE HOUR. It was from this place that I knew I needed to bring people back to their bodies and back to trusting their inner knowing. We’ve come so far away from the intelligence that guides us, the wisdom that exists purely because it is our birthright.
In my work, I bring the confidence back to you to trust what you're hearing. You know you have this gift. I am not unique in the way that I understand the call of the Universe, but I do believe I am unique in the way that I mentor others towards it. From this space I am crafting online programs to re-introduce your Inner Voice and to build a trusting relationship with this connection.
In my sessions, I communicate from the Universe back to you. I can sense your loved ones and those that are close to you, and I can also sense those that have caused you to repress emotions and express them in a way that is unconscious to you. Through dialogue and energy work, the potential to release blocks, reduce trauma, shift perceptions and find greater balance and harmony in your life are endless. I’ve personally seen the most inspiring transformations take place in my clients, if they listen to the wisdom (Universal, not mine). It is clear that this work is needed. It is important, and that is why I continue to channel in the way that I do.
I’ve helped clients navigate career loss/changes, family trauma, divorce, death, childhood trauma, relationship challenges, belief systems, old stories, complete overhauls - including moving an entire family and uprooting the life they have always known for one that fills their souls. The reward is in seeing the trust build between them and the Universe.
