Grateful, honored, humbled, proud to be part of this community and of myself for doing new things ✨🙈

“Why We Cowee” is a collaborative podcast hosted by Matt Sawyer and sponsored by City Lights Bookstore where we highlight who and what makes this place so special.

This week’s guest is…Ashlyn Miller!
(www.coweeschool.org/why-we-cowee)

Ashlyn Miller is a lover of all things wild, mystical, and holistic weaving yoga, Ayurveda, and somatic practices to co-create ripples of individual and collective transformation.

“My journey of self discovery was being kinder and more compassionate to myself, realizing I have value. From that is a sense of self trust in knowing I am connected to something bigger than myself.”

She is also a resident artist and the creative behind Inner Woven Wellness, check out her schedule for offerings in our co-workspace.

☀️a moment for the summer solstice & tulsi sun tea from the garden☀️

The days grow long
And the light wide

Time grows full
With songs from the wild
And rainbows of color
Flood the eyes

What wisdom live here?
What medicine ripens?

Under the peak of the sun
The pinnacle of truth, cosmic knowing, soul

Rivers flow
Planets dance
The sun takes center stage
Nature grows unhinged

Colors bursting
Juices swelling
Life beaming

Solstice- to stand still
And behold the aliveness

Pervading all existence
Anointing the corridors and contours
The nooks and crannies
Every fiber and sinew

An animating force from beyond
Delivering blessings from afar
For the journey here, now
And ahead

The outstretched arms of the sun
A resting place to remember
To savor, to pause

In what is unconditional, unbiased, untamed
Herding all creatures
Onward, outward, downward, upward

Into a stream of radiance
To carry and caress us
All the way
Home 🌻

Here for the magick of the rhythms, the cycles, the aliveness that lives in my bones☀️

To the prehistoric Celts the Summer Solstice was called Alban Hefin, meaning “the light of the summer”.

We’ll be gathering to celebrate, savor the light, feel the radiance, settle into our aliveness, and collectively create via a gentle somatic arriving practice and then a collective story weaving experience.

Grateful for the opportunity to collab with a dear friend [ ]and share 🦋Nature as Kin🦋 during the Bartram 250 event.

The presence, engagement, reflections, song, and tea time were an honor to witness and be a part of.

I look around at what feels like the world on fire and am reminded of the value and importance of rewriting stories of domination and supremacy—that was something we got to do this past Saturday as we came home to “we” instead of “I” and slowed way tf down to be in relationship with nature as family/kin/relative/ancestor/sentient.

Thank you for those who attended and trusted us to facilitate! It was a new edge for me and one I hope to keep gently pushing as part of my resistance to a world that disempowers and disconnects.

“In the fields the barley grows a little straighter
In the river the salmon leaps a little higher
In the sky the stars glint a little brighter” -Martin Shaw

< take away- everything is more alive, vibrant, and resilient when situated in itself; in supportive conditions; in its natural habitat >

Who are you in the field of your heart, the river of your soul, the sky of the eternal?

May we all find our way home to this rich field, this flowing river, this mysterious sky ✨

Inspo from this past week’s confluence series- we focused on resourcing and connecting with support and compassion to come back to this field, river, sky.

Next week we’ll build from this foundation and get curious about what lives in the heart, what gets in the way, what we can do to care for stuck energy that constricts the heart; the field, the river, the sky of our being.

Our holistic Summer series starts tomorrow! This week our tool for tending the roots to find more flow is compassion.

Compassion says: I am with you in your wholeness; compassion is spacious; compassion does not judge.

whats working? whats going? taking time to sip on that

05/09/2025

My identity has been shifting
and with that
what I want to share
what I want to write
what I want to create
what I want to experience.

And I’ve noticed
these last few years of pivoting
that I’ve been so hard on myself
for not having it figured out
for not feeling as inspired as I once was
for not knowing what to share or how to express
for making mistakes
and that has been far from helpful
rather a hindrance
to where the river wants to carry me.

I’ve been in the very process I need
to move toward what is aligned with my heart
my bones and blood
and I’m wondering
for myself and anybody else pivoting
what if you loved yourself, comforted yourself,
support yourself more during this time of transformation?

I’ll be experimenting this summer with how to integrate yoga, ayurveda, somatics, animism, mythology, and collective transformation through a 12 week series.

It’s a low-cost opportunity to gather and practice a holistic approach to healing, well-being, and empowerment that considers both the individual and interdependence with the rest of life.

It’s also an opportunity to be human together and not feel alone in our struggles and wins.

May we our roots hold us so that we can trust the river to carry us home ✨💧✨

Summer 2025 Series ✨💧✨

If ya don’t know now ya know~

But for real, I’m excited to have 2 weekly group opportunities to learn, practice, and grow together, centered around teachings that are holistic, relational, and empowering in nature.

“For the masters tool will never dismantle the masters house” -Audre Lorde

Here for genuine change in the direction of care, connection, and creativity; power with and within versus power over.

And no, this isn’t another yoga class for flexibility & strength, calm, relaxation, and enlightenment (that’s all valid and a natural byproduct of the practice) but this is more about how do we stay true to ourselves under pressure, how do we lift some of the pressure to have more flow, how do we expand our capacity to hold complexity, how do we resource ourselves so we can keep riding the waves of life, how do we cultivate enough safety and stability so that we can be authentic, how we can weave our roots into belonging and dignity so that we can be more alive.

Meet me at the edges.

This work is physiological, psychological, emotional, relational, social, ecological, and spiritual; it is holistic.
