Lighthouse Loft

Lighthouse Loft is a zen oasis where you are encouraged to let your true, authentic self shine. I am also offering distance reiki healing.

I’ve always been described as a free spirit, tree hugger, hippie kinda person & I love it! My soul finds solace near water or in the forest & my inner child is totally blissed out with the moon, shells, nature’s heart shaped gifts & feathers to name a few. For me, it’s the simple things that soothe my soul & bring me joy - big belly laughs, my fur babies, morning coffee, sunrises, sunsets or moments spent with loved ones. I love oils, crystals, cards, journals, smudging, meditation & mantras & like to sprinkle these throughout my practice. I am a RYT 500 having completed both my 200 hr YTT & trauma sensitive training in 2015 & my 300 ytt in November 2020. Since that time, I’ve evolved & my passion lies with restorative, yin & speciality candlelight practices. I am also a reiki practioner & completed my level 2 course in December 2020. I feel the union of my social work background, my reiki training as well as my yoga skill set is guiding me towards a healing path nourishing the body as well as the mind, heart & soul. Due to the pandemic, I am offering online classes (live & on demand) called Zen on Zoom. You can choose from slow flow combining strength with ease, yin & restorative yoga. I am also running private monthly groups via facebook that combine meditation, journaling, yoga (nidra, restorative, yin, flow), breath work & other theme related activities. Who knows that the universe has in store for me but I am open to receive & grow with wonder & passion while soaring with a free spirit xoxo

Happy Family Day!

Today is a perfect day to honour family in whichever form it takes:

The ones we're born into.
The ones who share our last name.
The ones we choose along the way.
The ones who share a common purpose, healing or collective breath.
Even the furry or hairless companions that fill our spaces with unconditional love.

Athough so different, ALL these families are worthy of celebrating.

At Lighthouse Yoga, I see family in the way you greet each other with softness, roll out your mats with open hearts, breathe together through the messy & magical, in the way you hold space for one another, in the way we show up each week: imperfect, human, together. This yoga community is a beautiful reminder that family isn’t defined by matching last names but by support, connection & belonging. You make this space either on Zoom or in person feel like home. You're not just students to me, you're the heart of this family.

A huge shout out to my family unit, the ones who support me endlessly, proof read my reflections, practice my yoga flows, offer feedback, let me take over our living spaces & do so much behind the scenes so I can follow my heart & teach yoga.

From my family to yours, Happy Family Day & however you choose to celebrate may it be filled with connection, warmth & those who feel like home.

So much love & gratitude for you all xo

Today i'm remembering that love isn’t only something we give or receive from others. It’s also the quiet, steady way we show up for ourselves especially on our messiest, heaviest days.

This love may resemble boundaries, grace, choosing rest or perhaps speaking a little kinder to yourself.

Today, whether you’re partnered, single, or somewhere beautifully in between, I hope you offer yourself a moment of tenderness. A hand to your heart. A breath that says, I’m here. I matter. I’m learning to love myself, too.

Happy Valentine’s Day, friends. May you feel loved from the inside out. ❤️

During yesterday's classes themed around the heart chakra, I revisited a technique called EFT or tapping.

If you're feeling overwhelm, stuck or tense, EFT is a gentle technique that can help settle your system.

EFT combines light tapping on acupressure points while repeating gentle words. People seem to like it as it supports nervous system regulation, helps shift limiting beliefs & creates emotional spaciousness.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, I themed this offering around self-love as turning love inward can be the most challenging.

It only takes a few minutes of gentle tapping (6-8 taps per point with 2 fingers) It's more important to stay connected to the feeling so I simply take slow, mindful breaths instead of counting.

If you have a couple of minutes, I invite you to try it with me.

Begin by sensing the physical support beneath you & let yourself be held. Take a few breaths to bring yourself into the moment of now. And take a moment to shift awareness to the heart space.

EFT Practice:

💚 Side of hand - tap here (karate chop) & say: Even though I sometimes forget my own worth, I'm learning to love myself.

Tap each point using 2 fingers & repeat:

💚 Between Eyebrows - I soften the space around my heart.

💚 Outside Eye - I release what no longer needs to be held.

💚 Under Eye - My heart is allowed to rest.

💚 Under Nose - I am safe to feel.

💚 Under Chin - I am safe to receive.

💚 Collarbone - I let love flow through me.

💚 Underarm - I release old stories with kindness.

💚 Top of head - I return to my natural state of openness & ease.

Repeat 3x in total.

Pause for a moment to integrate & notice how you feel. Perhaps, say some sweet words to yourself.

Take the love you cultivated right here with you into your weekend. Everyday is love day! Love is all that matters & it starts by loving yourself xo

Welcome, February. Hello Imbolc.

We've arrived at the sweet space in between Winter Solstice & Spring equinox. There's a gentle, soft return of light & perhaps you feel the subtle stirrings within. It's still a time to honour the stillness of winter while inviting in curiousity & awareness to the little shifts within. A tender moment to begin again.

Lately, I've been posting about tiny rituals that help us come back to ourselves after a full, busy week; the small, steady things that make us feel human again.

For me, this weekend's simple comforts might include:
😻 snuggles with my cats
📝 journalling
📚getting lost in a book
👣rubbing magnesium on my feet
🧘🏻‍♀️rolling around on my yoga mat without any agenda
☕️savouring that first sip of morning coffee
🏔️ a walk in nature
💌 writing my newsletter

What’s one small weekend reset ritual that helps you feel restored, grounded, or a little more you again?

Your ritual might be the deeply deserved reminder someone else needs to fully exhale this weekend xoxo

A tender note & few shifts in our practice rhythm was just emailed to my readers. Thank you for being part of this space & holding these transitions for me xo

01/24/2026

Some days ask more of us than others. And despite knowing what I should do, I don't.

It's all a practice. A remembering. A pause to gather whatever resources I can to meet each moment as it arrives.

This is where I begin. Recognizing the simple truth that I don’t have to hold myself up alone. I can trust that Mother Earth is always there beneath me, steady & stable, willing to support me when I forget how to support myself.

Zoom classes have been very challenging lately with sparse attendance. After a couple of heavy weeks filled with disappointment & doubt, returning to this practice felt especially rewarding. Like any new skill, it takes time, energy, practice & grace to teach my brain to choose something other than the old, reactive pathways I slip into when I’m tired or overwhelmed. A gentle nudge away from the familiar “bitchy” spiral toward something softer, more spacious.

So I come back.
Back to my mat.
Back to the earth.
Back to myself.
Back to my why.

One breath, one moment, one tiny reset at a time.

Thank you for sharing this moment with me. Stay warm & cozy this weekend, sweet friends xo

After seeing so much chatter about doing more or being more, our classes started from a softer space. The start of 2026 simply invited you to show up as you were. Each class spent a portion of time creating a sense of groundedness as this helps foster safety. The intention was for each person to find poses that were supportive & nurturing to them. This invited in a level of awareness so we could tend to our individual needs. Perhaps, this was movement for some while others craved stillness. Open loving awareness of what it without adding stories, labels or judgements. Recognizing however you show up or whatever arises is all part of the practice. And all of you is welcome here. This is how you can return home to yourself. Safely. Slowly. Gently. Mindfully.

One of the most supportive ways to move into a new year is to tend to your nervous system. When your nervous system feels cared for, your whole being softens. You breathe a little deeper. Your thoughts settle. Your body releases a sigh & perhaps finds ease.

Many say that such is easier to do if guided or in a studio but wonder how to take this practice off the mat.

One of my favourite ways to do this is by creating a calm corner, a space that gently nourishes my senses. My husband loves big screens (the bigger and louder, the better), but for me that kind of stimulation feels overwhelming. So I’ve learned to honour what my system needs.

Here’s my lil cozy corner:
🌲 the soft glow of my lingering Christmas tree (I finally took it down yesterday!)
🕯️ the flicker & gentle crackling of a candle
🐾 the steady purr of my nearby kitties
📚 a good book that invites me inward
🧣 a blanket that feels like a hug
☕ if I really want to complete the sensory experience, a warm cup of tea

These tiny choices matter. They can signal safety to the body & help regulate the nervous system. They remind us that calm isn’t something we have to chase rather it’s something we can create, moment by moment.

Notice what feels right for you. Where do you feel a big sigh or in what places can you notice your jaw or shoulders settling? What textures feel lovely against your skin? Allow your body & all its sensations to guide you as you create a lil cozy corner that meets your needs. And maybe this practice doesn't resonate at all & that's ok. Perhaps you prefer walking in nature or riding a Pelaton.

As we step into this new year, may we all find the corners, rituals & sensory comforts that help us feel grounded, nourished & at home within ourselves.

Happy Friday, friends xo

"Don't be a yoga teacher. Be yourself & teach yoga"

It might be a new year but it's still the same old me!

This week, we begin again. January doesn't mean that you have to do more or be more. Simply show up & begin again, gently. Honouring where you are & listening to your needs. It's all about returning & reconnecting xoxo
