I think service is my love language. It's what I do. I'm not grieving, I'm not sad, it's something that happened, I know we're in for a fight if we want to protect women's rights.
I taught yoga today, and it felt good to bring people relief and some balance. And I'm here to do more of that.
Yoga is online! Starting next Tuesday, 11/12 at 4:30pm Pacific time. $13 via PayPal or VenMo. If you want to give more, that's appreciated. I'm keeping the price low to make it more accessible.
We'll do breathwork, chanting, mudra (hand gestures), and, of course, posture. Plus, you'll get a little yoga philosophy framework.
If you're interested, send me a DM.

REMINDER: Full Moon Class Today - Happy Equinox! How are you celebrating the balance between light and dark? Along with this equinox energy, there is a Full Moon in Libra this week as well as a lunar eclipse. All this focuses attention on balance, or the lack thereof. At the same time, the Sun has transitioned into Aries, which is all about energy for new beginnings.
Forgiveness and Full Moon Class - My word for March is Forgiveness. There is a lot in life that begs forgiveness and I am starting with myself. I am moved to speak in a kind way to myself, begging my own forgiveness and giving it with grace and love. This radical act of kindness towards myself leads me to cultivate harmony and balance. It also helps me own my personal power. As it happens, this Libra Full Moon is all about that. Join me for a Lunar LifeForce Yoga Class on Thu March 21! - https://mailchi.mp/yogafordepression/libra-full-moon

Practical and Intuitive - This month, the Full Moon invites us to bring our attention to the balance between the mind and the heart, or the practical and intuitive. Are you a person who analyzes decisions or do you let your heart lead? Chances are, you are a bit of both. But if you are anything like me, one can take over and I bet it is the mind. https://mailchi.mp/yogafordepression/virgo-full-moon
