When we meet the world with presence, life itself becomes the teacher — a mirror revealing our depth, our tenderness, and our belonging to all things.

The Awakened Warrior walks into the world not to conquer it, but to learn from it — finding endless inspiration and connection in the ordinary and the profound.

The body doesn’t wear out—it wakes up through movement.
Qigong reminds us that regeneration is our natural state when we live within the window of presence—where awareness, breath, and form meet.
This isn’t exercise. It’s renewal.
Through simple, mindful movement, we nourish joints, strengthen fascia, calm the nervous system, and restore the rhythm of life within us.
Join me for upcoming online and in-person Qigong classes, and explore a deeper path of embodied practice through the Awakened Warrior Program—a journey into the art of presence, purpose, and vitality.

The human body isn’t a machine that wears out.
It’s a living ecosystem that renews itself through movement.

Is cortisol holding back your ability to reach your weight loss goals?

In my recent article on GLP-1 and natural ways to support weight loss, we explored how certain lifestyle choices can mimic or stimulate the effects of this important hormone, helping regulate appetite and improve metabolic health without pharmaceuticals.

Many of us struggle with our weight, trying different diets, and end up feeling overwhelmed by the enormity of the task. It is becoming increasingly apparent that weight loss is less about discipline and more about healing our gut and restoring metabolic function. Read more on my blog...

But emerging science and deeper somatic insight tell a different story. We now understand that impulse control, e...

Real healing comes from being present with our pain. Read my latest blogpost here.

Devon Hornby, LMT, ABT In a culture that prizes productivity, speed, and emotional composure, the idea of being with our emotional pain can feel counterintuitive—if not outright dangerous. We’re taught to push through, numb out, or rationalize our feelings rather than feel them. But the refusal ...
