The energy of the Charkas correspond to major areas of our lives:

3rd– Power/Energy
4th Love/Joy
5th -Truth/Communication
6th – Imagination/Wisdom

This practice can help you heal, transform and create a deeper connection to the Self, nature and others.

In this series you will be introduced to all 7 major chakras as a system for self-healing and overall wellbeing. Each week we will focus on one chakra, starting with the heart, as the journey begins with the heart, connecting us deeper to ourselves, our souls and the abundant energy all around us.

This series is part lecture and primarily practice, to really feel the energy in your body. We will explore a variety of asana postures, movement, mudras, breathing, and seed sounds to connect with the energy of each chakra. Each practice will end with chanting and meditation on the focused Chakra. Everyone is welcome.

Sagittarius Blue Full Moon

Freedom • Truth • Expansion • Adventure

Where are you aiming your focus,
energy and intention?

On May 31st, we welcome a rare and powerful Sagittarius Full Blue Moon.

It arrives as the second full moon of the month, amplifying its energy and inviting us to release what no longer aligns with our highest truth.

This Full Moon is also a Micromoon, meaning the Moon is at its furthest point from Earth. While it may appear slightly smaller in the sky, energetically it asks us to zoom out, gain perspective, and view our lives from a higher vantage point.

Sagittarius Energy

Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign ruled by Jupiter, the planet of wisdom, growth, abundance, travel, and expansion.

This sign invites us to dream bigger, trust life more deeply, and align with a vision that feels meaningful and inspiring.

Sagittarius seeks truth above comfort.
This Full Moon may illuminate areas where you have been avoiding an important conversation, denying your feelings, or settling for less than what you truly desire.

Journal Prompts

What is being illuminated in your life right now?

What truth am I finally ready to acknowledge?

Where am I being called to think bigger or dream bigger?

What beliefs, habits, or fears are limiting my growth?

What would freedom look and feel like in my life right now?

Healthy Hips Yoga Series

This 6-week series is focused on understanding the different components of hip anatomy through the lens of yoga, functional movement, and embodied awareness to help support how you move and function in everyday life.

Together, we will explore the many movements of the hip joints and learn ways to strengthen and soften the body so you can feel more balanced, mobile, stable, and connected. Each week we will focus on a different area and theme within the hips and pelvis.

Through a combination of pranayama, functional movement, yoga, somatics, mobility work, and myofascial release, we will explore practices designed to support, heal, release tension, and bring greater awareness to the body.

The pelvis and hips are the centre of the body — deeply connected to our foundation, posture, balance, movement patterns, and emotional holding. This series is an invitation to reconnect to your centre and cultivate more ease, freedom, and whole-body balance.

You will:
Learn about your hip anatomy
Help strengthen your hips, glutes and core
Regain natural healthy alignment
Find freedom, balance and ease in the body
Develop more body awareness and interoception
Learn different movements to strengthen and stretch the hips
Help strengthen the muscles around the knees for better balance
Explore function movement, yoga, somatics and myofascial release
Create strength and flexibility
Find a whole-body connection to the core
Improve your yoga practice

Gemini Season

A few days ago on May 20th, the Sun officially moves into Gemini, marking the beginning of Gemini Season — a season of movement, curiosity, connection, learning, communication, and mental expansion.
After the grounding, slowing, and stabilizing energy of Ta**us season,

Gemini arrives like fresh air moving through the mind and spirit. Ruled by Mercury, Gemini invites us to ask questions, explore new perspectives, connect with others, and open ourselves to growth through conversation, learning, and experience.

Gemini Season asks us to remain open.
Open to learning.
Open to changing.
Open to listening.
Open to new perspectives.
Open to ourselves.

Ta**us New Moon
Coming Home To Yourself

This year, my birthday arrives alongside the grounding, sensual, and deeply nourishing energy of the Ta**us New Moon — and honestly, I cannot think of a more beautiful alignment.

I have been reflecting all week on the past year, my lessons, my gifts and my success and I feel so very grateful to live this life and do what I do and share my love and gifts with you all.

So, I also wanted to THANK you all for listening to me every week, for responding, for asking question and for supporting my small business. This fall it will be 10 years since I opened up Inner Compass Yoga & Ayurveda and if it weren’t for you all I wouldn’t be able to still do what I truly love.

Last night, I was laying in bed with Jade after such a simple yet magical day — hiking in nature, brunch with family, an afternoon Yoga Nidra, cooking dinner for friends, and ending the evening with yummy dessert, laughter, and games. And as I reflected on the day, tears came to my eyes.

I felt so deeply grateful.

Grateful to share the wisdom and practices of Yoga, Ayurveda, and Astrology — three of my deepest loves in this lifetime and three paths that have profoundly transformed the way I move through life, relate to myself, heal, connect, and understand the world around me.

These practices have taught me how to slow down, listen, trust, soften, and return home to myself again and again. They have carried me through seasons of grief, expansion, heartbreak, healing, joy, transformation, and rebirth.

And to now be able to share them with this community feels incredibly sacred to me.

One of my favourite Sanskrit words is Prema — divine love, unconditional love, the kind of love that flows from the heart without needing to possess or control.

Another beautiful Sanskrit word is Kritajna — gratitude, thankfulness, and the ability to recognize the blessings of life with an open heart.
I truly feel both deeply right now.

“Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer.” — Maya Angelou

Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day to you all, weather you are a mother, have a mother, care for others, care for animals, or deeply want to become a mother.

For many women, Mother’s Day becomes an invitation to reflect not only on motherhood itself, but on the deeper essence of mothering. And this is what I would like to share with you today. My journey through my TBI taught me how to Mother myself, how to hold myself, how to love and accept myself as I am and how to deeply nourish myself.

Before my accident I loved myself, but in a different way. I mothered everyone more and before me, but then I was unable to mother anyone, including myself. I had to move back into my parents’ house at 31 and live in their basement. This was a time that I thought my life would look and be very different.

I wanted to become a mother and have children of my own, but in those moments of darkness, it seemed impossible. There were moments I didn’t want to live anymore, and I didn’t think I would heal or ever be able to care for myself again. It felt heavy, dark and lonely at the time as no one in my life seemed to quite understand what I was going through.

And as I reflect on this today, loving and snuggling my daughter this morning brings tears to my eyes. Tears of joy, tears of love, tears of awe, of amazement and the power of healing and mothering ourselves.
Mothering yourself, asks us to turn inward. To care for ourselves with the same tenderness we offer others.

To rest.
To nourish.
To listen to our bodies.
To soften our inner critic.
To hold ourselves through the hard moments with compassion instead of judgment.

To allow ourselves much like the caterpillar in the chrysalis time to heal, to unfold, to surrender expectation and change in our own time on our own schedule. And if you have not cared for and mothered yourself enough, now is the time. The time to release the people pleasing, the guilt, the avoidance or hiding behind the business and caring for everyone else.

Sending you all so much love this week and all year. Reach out to join my newsletter and hear more of what I am sharing.
