Come out and join us in moving your body in kind, loving and gentle ways.

We are making our way into the fall season and summer is quickly fading... in reflection how have you spent your time?

Maybe this is the season for you to begin a small practice of learning how to breathe and practice Yoga.

What might happen if the divine masculine was allowed to be just that….divine?

What possibilities exist when we teach our young boys the value of kindness, compassion and empathy?

We must bring along both the divine feminine and divine masculine as both are important…and both have been imbalanced for hundreds of years in our world.

It takes each one of us to lean into the discomfort where growth happens and it takes each one of us to do our own work and heal our trauma so that we may be the best human possible.

How might you lean into the discomfort today and find yourself unlimited in possibilities?

Hatha Flow Yoga + Breathwork
Wednesday Sept 17th
630-745p
Cost 20$

I am back from my travels... last week I was feeling under the weather on Wednesday and run down...sometimes even when we are doing fun things we can tax our bodies. I have rested and I am ready to get back to moving my body in gentle, kind and loving ways.

Today is my sweet momma’s 89th Birthday and her 3rd in the cosmos.

She was born in the midst of poverty and The Depression .

She was full of grit, resilience and had a helluva ACES score….and she did not allow her trauma to create a bitter woman.

In fact she embraced all the people who were different in our world by society’s standards and she had a heart for Jesus and God.

She loved everybody, even those whom were really hard to love, and those who caused her great sorrow and pain.

She taught me many things in life and the best lesson of all was to love and accept all people as they are. I am constantly working on this…I find it a challenge sometimes because of beliefs, thoughts and behaviors of others.

If she were alive today she would be quite appalled at the behavior of humanity and she would be praying hard for hearts and minds to change. We would have many discussions and thoughts about the state of our world at the kitchen table over dinner or lunch.

So today I honored her in the best way possible…drumming, singing, laughing, listening, cooking and sitting outside in nature. Tonight for dinner I am going to eat one of her favorite meals- steak and baked potato and I will remember the times we shared and the memories made …. I will never forget that I am my mother’s savage daughter…the one who runs barefoot cursing sharp stones….

I AM BACK!!!!

I have communed with GUS (God + Universe + Source), I have meditated for HOURS in the quantum healing field with Delta brain waves on blast...I have manifested that which is near and dear to my heart....I have laughed, cried, walked on the beach at 4am....and settled into a historic space to allow Bixlbee Pugglsree to grow and develop even more. I have learned about the nonprofit world in ways I didn't know and I am excited to grow a dream....a vision...that was placed upon me by GUS.

I have renewed my soul....my sprit. I have made new friends and learned SO much over the last 3 weeks.

And now....well....let's just say all is well with my soul.

Consider joining me on Wednesday Sept 10th from 630p - 745p.

Cost is 20$

Love, light and the shadows
