The Yamas (Restraints – how we relate to the world):

Ahimsa (Non-violence):

Practice: Speak kindly to yourself and others. Avoid gossip. Choose compassion over criticism.

Daily Tip: If you're feeling reactive, pause and breathe before responding.

Satya (Truthfulness):

Practice: Be honest, but also considerate—speak truth in a way that doesn’t harm.

Daily Tip: Journal daily to clarify your truths and align your actions accordingly.

Asteya (Non-stealing):

Practice: Respect others’ time, space, and energy. Don’t take credit for others' ideas.

Daily Tip: Notice where you may “take” more than needed, including attention or energy.

Brahmacharya (Moderation):

👍Practice: Channel your energy wisely—balance indulgence and restraint, especially in sensual pleasures.

Daily Tip: Spend time daily doing something that nourishes your spirit, not just entertains your senses.

Aparigraha (Non-possessiveness):

Practice: Let go of attachments to things, outcomes, and people. Practice gratitude for what is.

Daily Tip: Clean a space and give away one item you no longer need each week.

The Niyamas (Observances – how we relate to ourselves):

Shaucha (Purity):

Practice: Keep your body, space, and mind clean. Eat clean, move your body, and avoid toxic influences.

Daily Tip: Start your morning with a cleansing ritual—hydration, breathwork, or light movement.

Santosha (Contentment):

Practice: Accept and appreciate your current life situation without comparison.

Daily Tip: End each day by listing 3 things you're grateful for—even in tough times.

Tapas (Discipline):

Practice: Commit to your spiritual practice, even when it’s inconvenient or uncomfortable.

Daily Tip: Set one intention each morning to stretch yourself, spiritually or physically.

Svadhyaya (Self-study):

Practice: Reflect on your patterns, read spiritual texts, and observe your own mind with curiosity.

Daily Tip: Take 10 minutes daily for journaling or reading something that elevates your understanding.

Ishvara Pranidhana (Surrender to God):

Practice: Trust a Higher Power. Let go of control and align with divine will.

These principles emphasize moral conduct and self-discipline, aligning with the broader objectives of yoga to achieve spiritual growth and self-realization.

In my practice I integrate somatic therapy with IFS – because our parts don’t only live in our thoughts. They live in our bodies, our posture, and our breathing patterns.

Sarah’s achiever part, for instance, lived in her tight shoulders and shallow breathing. Her guilty part showed up as a collapsed chest and nervous stomach. When we worked somatically, these parts could finally be felt, acknowledged, and they gradually learned new ways of being.

In our Yoga class we help body parts discharge old stress, unhelpful beliefs and trauma that they carry. We teach the nervous system that it’s safe to let Self lead.

The magic happens when parts begin to trust that they don’t have to work so hard anymore – that Self is capable, compassionate, and present enough to handle life’s challenges.

We’re back home 🏠 full, whole, better because we got to do the things we dream of!

Our Fall 2025 & 2026 Flordia Yoga Retreats are open — and ready for YOU to make some magic.

Walking + yoga + mindfulness = the reset you didn’t know you needed (or maybe you did… and that’s why you’re still reading).

No experience needed. No solo planning required. Just bring yourself — we’ll take care of the rest. ✨

📬 Curious if this is right for you? We’d love to chat — send us a message anytime.

The Best part of Sound healing:as you surrender to gravity, your nervous system shifts from fight-or-flight into rest-and-digest!

03/10/2025

What Happens in a Sound healing Class:

As you begin to release into stillness, subtle shifts take place inside your body every sound takes you deeper inside.

Your head rests easily at the top of your spine, no longer held forward or pulled back. The tiny muscles in your neck let go, allowing for natural ease.
Your shoulders broaden and sink gently into the floor. The tension in your upper back and chest dissolves.
Your ribcage expands t.
Your spine lengthens naturally,
Your hips soften, and the deep muscles around them let go, releasing stored tension in your lower back and pelvis.
Your legs and feet relax into their natural position, allowing blood to flow freely.
Your body is experiencing true rest—not forced stillness, but effortless balance.

A FAVORITE is how the Nervous System Responds
As you surrender to gravity, your nervous system shifts from fight-or-flight into rest-and-digest.

Your heart rate slows, and your blood pressure lowers.
Your breath deepens, oxygenating every cell.
Your muscles receive the signal that they don’t need to hold tension, allowing deeper relaxation.
Your digestive system begins working more efficiently, as your body is no longer in a state of alertness.
Your brain waves slow, moving toward a meditative state.
This is the body’s natural intelligence at work because of frequency tones.
