Breathe! 🌬️

As many of you know—I love Yoga, anatomy and bodywork. What can I say? It lights me up! 💫

It might seem like I like to talk about muscles, myofascial and movement in class… but truly, the physical body is just the first doorway. When we begin to connect with our bodies, we awaken something much deeper.

Most people don’t want to feel. Emotions can be overwhelming, so we avoid them. But once you move... once you breathe... feelings rise up naturally. And here’s the key: what you do with them matters most.

That’s where we enter the next layer of being:
🧠 Manomaya Kosha – the mental/emotional body.

You can meet your feelings by observing them, listening to them, and then shifting your state using powerful yogic tools:
✨ Mantra
✨ Chanting
✨ Mindful movement
✨ Yoga postures
✨ Breath practices

These aren’t just spiritual fluff—they’re ancient techniques for mental clarity, emotional resilience, and inner calm.

Start with the breath. Stay for the transformation. 💛 the rest will follow naturally.

🧘‍♀️ Upcoming Classes & Workshops
✅ Monday 5:30 PM – Yoga for Back Care 4-week series of classes
✅ Wednesday 10:30 AM – 4-Week Somatic Workshop Series
→ Begins Wednesday April 2, followed by three Thursdays
✅ Morning Classes – Monday, Tuesday & Thursday at 8:15 AM
✅ 🌿 Yoga Beginner Mini Retreat Workshop – April 19th
A nourishing deep dive into breath, body awareness, and gentle yoga for all levels.

Your breath is your entry point. Your body is your home. Your mind can become your ally.

🌀 Vipassana & Somatic: Two Paths, One Purpose 🌀
What if healing isn’t about fixing—but about noticing?

Vipassana meditation and Somatic movement may seem like separate practices, but at their core, they share a powerful truth:
👉 Awareness is the first step to transformation.

Vipassana—one of the oldest forms of meditation—teaches us to observe our thoughts, sensations, and emotions without judgment. By sitting in stillness, we begin to see ourselves more clearly and respond to life with more peace and presence.

Somatic movement, developed by Thomas Hanna, brings that same kind of awareness into the body. Through slow, mindful movement—done on the floor or in a chair—we tune into physical sensations, release deeply held tension, and allow the nervous system to reset.

💡 Both practices invite us to listen.
Not to push or perform, but to notice, feel, and reconnect with what’s already inside us.

Whether you’re sitting in silence or moving gently through space, both Vipassana and Somatic work help restore a deeper relationship between body, mind, and breath.

✨ If you’re looking for inner stillness, outer ease, or a more conscious way to move through life—start by simply noticing. That’s where the healing begins.
