One of my favourite meditations that I return to again and again.

A compass is a symbol — a quiet reminder that we are on the right path. That we are guided, supported, and held in this life, no matter which way we turn.

Try this simple practice:

Turn your head to the right
The East symbolises new beginnings
Breathe in
Breathe out
Send love to all who walk beside you and support you
Return your head to centre
Breathe in
Breathe out

Turn your head to the left
The West symbolises endings and release
Breathe in
Breathe out
Send love to all who have walked with you, in this life or beyond
Return your head to centre
Breathe in
Breathe out

Lift your head upward
The North symbolises guardianship
Breathe in
Breathe out
Send love to those who watch over you
Return your head to centre
Breathe in
Breathe out

Bring your chin gently towards your chest
The South symbolises self nourishment
Breathe in
Breathe out
Send gratitude to yourself for showing up
Send love and appreciation to all that you are
Return your head to centre
Breathe in
Breathe out

You might like to pair this with gentle neck stretches, throat massage, or myofascial release into the occiput, frontalis, and temporalis.

Namaste 🙏

Dust off your picnic baskets or charcuterie boards, grab a blanket and bring them to the vineyard for my favorite location for a yoga class! Enjoy the beautiful drive up to the vineyard and a couple hours retreat from the external worries and come spend some time . From the amazing view from your yoga mat overlooking the vines and the blue ridge mountains to the amazing flavors of their local wine, this class is one you don't want to miss.

April 1st — The Day of the Fool 🎭♾️

What the world calls “foolish” has never truly been understood. In the language of Tarot, The Fool is not naïve or careless—he is the origin. Numbered zero, he represents the point before all structure, the unshaped potential from which everything begins. He stands at the threshold of existence itself, where nothing is fixed and everything is possible.

The Fool embodies innocence, trust, and the courage to step into the unknown without certainty. This is not ignorance—it is openness. The willingness to move forward without being held back by fear or the need for control. From this first step, the entire journey unfolds. The Major Arcana maps this path of transformation, where every experience, challenge, and realization becomes part of the evolution of consciousness.

And this is what Fool’s Day quietly points to. That real wisdom does not always appear as control or certainty, but often as the courage to explore, to risk, to step beyond what we think we know. The Fool reminds us that every true beginning requires a leap—that growth, creativity, and transformation all emerge from that same space of openness.

So this is for the seekers, the ones who keep moving, even when the path isn’t clear. The ones willing to look uncertain—even foolish—in the eyes of the world, because they understand something deeper:

Every journey, every transformation, begins exactly there🔥 Happy April 1st 🙌🏻

"No getting up and down from the floor" yoga ... yes, please 💐

The yamas aren’t about being morally impressive.

They’re about reducing the friction inside you.

Every time you override your values, the nervous system pays for it.
Tension increases. Clarity drops. Reactivity goes up.

These principles weren’t meant to create guilt or perfectionism.
They’re meant to simplify your inner world so your energy isn’t constantly split.

When how you think, speak, and act line up, regulation gets easier.
That’s why yoga ethics are practical, not philosophical.

When they ask "is there any way you could bring the yoga to me?... even the Thai yoga?"
🎊 You know it! That's what I do! 🎉
