Thick Girl Yoga Full Embodied Expression TGYLA you'll find a warm and inclusive community waiting to welcome you with open arms.

Thick Girl Yoga LA is a social collective focused on self-healing, life empowerment, and soul care.

This is the final call for our Ojai Women’s Wellness Retreat (June 12–14th). Consider this your permission slip to put down the phone, leave the laundry for a weekend, and just... breathe.

I know the first thing you’re going to do is look at your bank account and try to talk yourself out of it. Stop. We’re doing a sliding scale specifically so you don’t have an excuse to skip this.

• Commit to yourself: Put down the $250 deposit today. That’s it.

• Handle the rest later: You have until June 1st to pay the balance.

If you can find the money for everyone else’s “emergencies,” you can find it for your own peace.

The Essentials:
• When: June 12–14th, 2026
• Where: Ojai, CA (Yes, the air is actually different up there).
• The Focus: Rejuvenation, flow, and finally hearing yourself think.

April is C-Section Awareness Month, and it’s time we changed the narrative. 🕊️

That thin, silver line isn’t just a mark of a “medical outcome.” It is a sacred initiation into motherhood.

Healing after this transition requires more than just physical rest; it requires a practice that honors the soul and the body’s new rhythm.

These 6 gentle poses are designed to help you restore and heal without straining your core:
1. Seated Spine Elongation – To re-align and breathe.
2. Supported Reclined Bound Angle – To gently open the hips.
3. Supported Supine Hamstring Stretch – Circulation without stress.
4. Legs-up-the-Wall – To reduce swelling and calm the nervous system.
5. Gentle Supported Bridge – For core-safe stretching.
6. Savasana with Blanket – The essential rest for recovery.

Always consult your doctor before returning to the mat. When you’re ready, let’s honor the line.

For many of us, the mat is where we reconnect with ourselves. But after a C-section| Belly Birth, that connection can feel different, even distant. My latest Substack piece, “The Sacred Line,” is a love letter to the C-section soul. It’s about finding grace in the recovery and honoring the strength it took to cross that threshold.

If you’ve felt like your recovery has been “clinical” rather than “spiritual,” this is for you.

Today is a reminder of the quiet, constant, and profound ways Mother Nature provides for us. Every breath of fresh air, every drop of clean water, and every harvest from the soil is a gift she gives freely. She sustains us, grounds us, and offers a quiet sense of peace when we need it most.

Step outside, take a deep breath, and show some gratitude for the planet we are so lucky to live on. 💚♻️

Yoga doesn’t have to happen in a quiet room alone, sometimes that isn’t an option.

It can happen during storytime, during play, and during the “puppy-under” moments. It’s about accessibility, mobility, and most importantly, connecting with your little one.

Featured Poses:
• Storytime Pigeon 📚
• Big Dog & Puppy-Under 🐾
• Shared Child’s Pose ☁️

🧘‍♀️ A little chair yoga goes a long way. This desk worker reset targets all the usual tight spots (hello, lower back and shoulders!) to help you unwind and feel human again.

No mat required, just your trusty office chair. ✨

Your desk shouldn’t be a source of tension. 🖥️✨
If you’ve been hunched over a keyboard all day, your body is likely screaming for a reset.

You don’t need a mat or a change of clothes, just 5 minutes and the chair you’re sitting in right now.

This Chair Yoga flow is designed to release the “computer neck,” open up tight hips, and give your mind a second to breathe.

The Routine:
• Seated Cat-Cow: For that much-needed spinal mobility.
• Seated Twist: To wring out the tension in your back.
• Eagle Arms: For the “I’ve been typing too long” shoulder release.
• Seated Pigeon: Because your hips deserve some love.
• Heart Opener: To reverse the slouch.
• Supported Forward Fold: A deep hamstring and back release.
• Seated Meditation: To bring it all home.
Save this for your next lunch break or share it with a work bestie who needs a stretch! 🧘🏾‍♀️

Yoga for when the heart is heavy.

On those days, we don’t practice yoga to ‘fix’ the pain. We practice to breathe through it. To remind our bodies that they are still safe, even when the world feels upside down.

Save this for a day when you need to be held by your own breath. ✨
