Huge fan of bent knees in forward folds! Understanding where it is you should be feeling a pose helps when making modifications. 💜

1. Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)
Instead Of: Traditional Downward Dog, which requires significant flexibility in the hamstrings, calves, and shoulders.
Try This: A bent-knee variation with a focus on pushing the hips up and extending the spine. This reduces strain on the legs while still opening the shoulders and lengthening the back.
Benefit: Allows for better alignment and spinal extension, making the pose accessible for beginners.
2. Standing Forward Bend (Uttanasana)
Instead Of: A straight-legged fold that requires considerable hamstring and lower back flexibility.
Try This: A slight bend in the knees, bringing the chest closer to the thighs. This maintains the spinal stretch without straining tight hamstrings.
Benefit: Protects the lower back and gradually improves hamstring flexibility.
3. Seated Forward Bend (Paschimottanasana)
Instead Of: The traditional seated fold, which can be challenging for those with tight hamstrings and lower back stiffness.
Try This: Sit on a cushion or bend the knees to prevent excessive strain and allow a deeper forward fold over time.
Benefit: Promotes relaxation and spinal elongation while preventing injury.
Overall Benefits of the Modifications:
Reduces the risk of injury by easing into the poses.
Gradually improves flexibility and strength.
Encourages proper alignment and muscle engagement.
Makes yoga accessible for all body types and flexibility levels.
These variations help individuals progress safely and build confidence in their practice.

New Moon Tonight

A brand-new chapter is here!

During this new phase, you may find yourself detoxing your life of anything that is weighing you down.
This is the perfect time to clear out any unhealthy habits, obsessional thoughts,
one-sided connections, limiting fears, and whatever drains you
rather than charging your soul.
As one door closes, be prepared for others to open.
Trust your intuition, stand up for yourself, and believe in yourself.

New Moon blessings to you!!!

Welcome to the Scorpio New Moon!

Happening tonight, November 20th, at 1:47 a.m. ET/7:47 p.m. CET—but we are already feeling the effects of this lunation.

The New Moon is a couple of hours away, but one may have felt it's been here for the past few days. The cosmic alignments have been moving into position to support this new lunation, and really, it has quite a tail to it and will linger after the New Moon peaks tonight.

So many emotional swings and ways to be, I love hearing stories that one person is feeling on cloud nine lately and another is in the throes of hell, as a reminder of how fleeting, fast, and ever-changing life is and how quickly our lows become highs and vice versa. I've been oscillating between the highs and lows, and the overflow of feeling and tears is ready to spring from both grief and beauty at any old time these days.

It's turbulent waters, but only to help shake up what wants to trickle through and eventually become a deluge of creative, life-altering progress. This could very well be that crossroad you've been feeling toward for months. Give it time to ripple.

I see it in everyone these days, the epic in-between that 2025 has been, the major internal shifts and new layers of embodiment being settled into, along with an external life/future that feels more unknown than ever before yet can be felt in essence, like there's a light that wasn't there before to illuminate the path as it comes.
I'm in awe.

It's a really incredible time to be alive and to be aware of it.
The next few months feel like a deeper settling in, like a lot of the changes happening are just this next level of settling, of surrendering.

May your New Moon seeding be fruitful in six months on the sister Full Moon!
