“The Becoming”

36th year of further self discovery and core values deepened

Scorpios know best that your people are your people. Their love is loyal. I have never been filled with more boundless love for those I love.

My natural archetype is not the “mother”. I didn’t ever envision myself mothering a baby. I knew I would one day when Brian came along but I could never picture it. My archetype has always been a “seeker” or “healer” but the magic on becoming Marigolds mom unlocked a door inside me that every day gifts me the tools and this unknown strength to be her soul guide. She also has very much become mine.

Matrescence is the physical, emotional, hormonal and social transition to becoming a mother/parent. The complexity and intensity of this chapter rocked the reality I knew. It took a while to see through the fog. I am on the other side of it most of the time. I now can see in the wide lense and rear view of the journey rather than just the narrow view with all the blind spots.

The biggest shift is f***s given. Mamahood makes you give way less f***s about people pleasing and doing what doesn’t feel in alignment or at least for me that’s the unexpected surprise that has shown itself. Anxiety still dwells here but I care very little about my image or how I am perceived. Teaching again even feels lighter and more fun for this reason. Come join me for a class you may love it, or hate it 😘

To all the hats I wear. To reintegration back to whole self, not just mama. To loving all the parts of me. To Becoming more of who I am meant to be with grace, integrity and acceptance. To acquiring and giving even more freakin love. To being part of the change I wish to see in the world.

Thanks for reading this far.

✌🏼🤙🏼 🙏🏼

2017. What a fine time. Here is an image of a post rain Bok Bar yoga class that was almost canceled due to weather but we carried on. 100% worth it.
:
It’s not as fine in 2022 but yoga is a medicine beyond just movement that can sprinkle some splendor amongst the discomfort. It can let you sit with discomfort and still find/feel gratitude. Even more so it softens where you need to soften and strengthens where you need to feel strong so you say to yourself “I can do hard things “I am at peace” “I am perfect as I am”
See you Tuesday 6pm . But your tickets in advance.

Head to KGStrong website and find tix for Sunset Yoga under EVENTS

Really into my best friend. The force is strong with this one. Humanity is heavily in question these days, but the more this little one shows herself and her strength the more hope I have for the future.

Invitation to re-integration. That’s how stepping back into teaching feels. That’s how being a student of yoga always feels. A different body, a newer person every time, stepping on that mat.
Teaching at with KG Strong] Tuesday July 26th 6pm

See you on that beautiful rooftop in one week

Deciding whether she needs to re chalk her hands to send this V3

07/13/2022

Yes with motherhood there is a loss of maidenhood where sense of self gets lost in the fog of it all while you are giving all your energy to a budding being that fully needs you. This is something I have shared consistently. It’s important we have the honest forum to bring these truths to light.

I do miss the days of solo adventures, tons of yoga, spontaneous travel and impulsive, live in the moment decision making but with the radical change of new parenting I do get to re-access my inner child. I have the opportunity to “play” “explore” “slow down” with fresh eyes. It’s a clean start while mending the wounds of your own childhood and ancestoral trauma.

Momming/ co-parenting is similar to jazz, you improvise often and instinctually shift the groove when it feels right.

I know I am blessed to create our days together. Each day choosing a special experience that Goldie and I can share. Monotony, sprinkled frustration, some loneliness and exhaustion for sure are main ingredients of SAH parenting but I am daily learning the opportunities to stir things up and honor the wild that still resides within us both. My wild just looks a little different. The goddess still dwells here, she is just here giving less f***s about persona; less in the public eye and more in the groves of nature.

Becoming a mother, especially her mother has taken me on a deeper spiritual path and I look forward to diving deeper in.

Her light really is something fierce and I am here to help keep it bright. It’s really a reciprocal light brightening partnership ✨✨

Our hearts, our bodies
Our hearts, our bodies
Not anyone else’s to have ownership over
Right now the world around us is changing rapidly and somehow time traveling us 50 years into the darkness of the past. So much to process at once. So many beings to protect.

Here’s what I know in my 35 years that I didn’t fully see/feel when I started practicing yoga at 22 years old- that yoga is not what can be seen but what is felt And God and YOU, the internet world knows I’m all about what Is FELT.

Yoga is an avenue for social action, for change, because once you know something you can’t unknow it, you can’t ignore it. It is a practice that focuses on the liberation for all beings and that our thoughts words and actions should create that freedom and peace for all. It creates the clarity, How can I help?

The practice of intentional breath is a way move through grief, move through fear, refill our cups when we feel depleted, rest our overthinking minds
and what I’ve been channeling most the past two years on the unforeseen journey to/through motherhood amid a pandemic is how it helps you deeply heal.
I am returning to the in person seat as yoga teacher with KG Strong] Yoga JULY 26th 6pm. I am honored to hold community again and to create a practice you can walk away from your mat re-charged and in charge. May we keep our bodies strong, heads up and our hearts open.

RESERVE YOUR SPACE KG Strong]

See you JULY 26th On the ROOFTOP

Kahlil Gibran- On Children

And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said
"Speak to us of children"
Your children are not your children
They are the sons and daughters of life's longing for itself
They come through you but not from you
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you
You may give them your love but not your thoughts
For they have their own thoughts
You may house their bodies but not their souls
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow
Which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams
You may strive to be like them
But seek not to make them like you
For life goes not backward, nor tarries with yesterday
You are the bows from which your children
As living arrows are sent forth
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite
And he bends you with his might
That his arrows may go swift and far
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness
For even as he loves the arrow that flies
So he loves also the bow that is stable

Belly
The center, the core
Once Upon a time you and I lived in moments of ego.

Now as I lay in yoga practice relaxed naval to sky I touch the skin of my new body where my daughter once lived
It’s texture very much shifted but beautiful. It feels hollow, like there is room for her to dive back in, living briefly in nostalgia of wishing her back to her first nesting place
It’s complex the spectrum of motherhood
Never has my vessel felt more full, comically exhausted and radically resilient, my strength pouring in from unknown source. Unforeseen postpartum changes bringing forth more internal radiance than I ever knew.

Softer. Stretched. Sexy. Stronger than ever

The core of me goes deeper. My sense of self in budding discovery

belly I love you

Officially Ten Years Together

Two flirty will they won’t they 20 something pals officially went on their first date. A concert with some dancin & smoochin set the foundation to keep the good vibes rollin a decade later.

We have become so many versions of ourselves together at this point. We’ve done serious work to get through difficult times. We will continue to choose and support each other, I have no doubt.

To be able to say that is a beautiful thing. Baby Stacia dreamed for this kind of love story

I thank all the powers that be everyday for our deep friendship and partnership.

Thank You for co-creating this life and baby Goldie with me.

RBG shaped the voice of womens health for a generation.

Now political bottom dwellers are trying to undo all the great work she paved way for. Planned Parenthood, carrying a child, choosing not to carry a child, giving birth to a child, post partum care (mental and physical), maternity leave, and childcare assistance are all things not set up in a womens favor still in our government platforms. Women DO IT ALL and somehow still have to prove to the the misogyny undertones in our society that we are worthy, equal, and powerful.
Giving birth was the most intense, out of body- in this body, ancestral, WTF, Godly, I am STRONG hear me ROAR, I CAN’T/CAN DO THIS, mind tripping moment. If women did not endure this then, well men wouldn’t be standing here.
Hell Yeah to the Women! To the on the on the cusp women who will change this world. To those who feel in their souls they are women making our voices louder. Hallelujah to the strength it takes to walk a day in our shoes.

Happy International Womens Day
