Pausing to capture a moment lights up gratitude. Real-time journaling is so liberating. xo

. NO MATTER THE OBSTACLE
Breathing this in, through my heart & deep down to my roots:
“do humble work
with a holy heart.”
- kael klassen .
No matter the obstacle, this.
This brings me home.
.
“do humble work with a holy heart”
.
The work of life.
... the inner work.
... the outer work.
And all the spaces in between.
“do humble work with a holy heart”
At home.
At school.
At our jobs.
“do humble work with a holy heart”
On the mat. On the cushion. And off.
With our loved ones.
With our time.
With our health, with our healing.
With our passions & projects; fulfilling our dreams & intentions.
With our fears & obstacles, with change & uncertainty, with our choices in the making.
With all our offerings - the work of life.
The offerings of our life, lived.
.
“do humble work with a holy heart”

. UNEXPECTED JOY
Some dreams come in very small, fuzzy, packages. This is a dream come true. Having both my fuzzies cocoon with me, together, sharing cuddle time with mama ... !?
Well, it’s unprecedented (a first since they were kittens, they’re 12+ yrs old) AND it’s a source of completely unexpected joy!
.
Just like this incredible sunshine today & warming temperatures, @lululemon’s #PHYoga being less than 1 month away, @cityofom being less than 2 month’s away ... the new addition of golden turmeric matcha (from @davidstea) to my morning ritual aka no more coffee, the eternal joy I feel in moments of connection before, during & after class with students through a fully embodied hug, eye contact, shared tears, a deep breath ... or family meals shared around the dinner table, phones away, and when we go around the table to share a positive experience from the day, instead of 1 ... one of our teenagers shares 3!!! I’m plugging into unexpected joy in as many ways as I can. How? The first step is awareness. By paying attention. Paying attention to unexpected moments of joy. Pausing. Soaking in them. Appreciating them. Reflecting on them. Sharing them. And here’s to consciously cultivating more.

.
Your Teachers:
Partnering with @tiffaniharrisyoga to create & offer this incredible program, this life changing journey...is a privilege, an honour & a blessing I value with my whole heart n soul, and, my precious brain!!

We are so passionate about what we do, compliment each other’s strengths & are beyond stoked to be teaming up again. So much so, the planning process for November is well underway! Eeeee! Can’t wait to share what we have in store for you.

$. MAT TIME One of these girls will be joining me at @pranashantiyoga for MAT TIME tonight, 5:45pm! ;) Will you? . If you’re setting the intention to cultivate a new weekly ritual to get more mat time in, take a peek at my spring schedule: MONDAY’S 9:30am FLOW @pureyogaottawa Westboro 12:00pm WARM FLOW @pranashantiyoga TUESDAY’S 12:00pm WARM YIN @pranashantiyoga WEDNESDAY’S 9:30am FLOW/YIN @pureyogaottawa Westboro 5:45pm YANG+YIN** @pranashantiyoga ** This class is NOT heated, regular air, and is the same vibe/style as my 9:30am on Wednesday’s) FRIDAY’S 9:30am FLOW @pureyogaottawa Centretown SUNDAY’S 2:00pm FLOW @pureyogaottawa Centretown . We practice in the spaces in between. Between our formal ‘sits’ & our yoga classes. That’s the big practice, taking it off the mat, off the cushion, and into how we live our life. How we spend our time, our energy, who & what we give our attention & focus to. How we live our life & how spend this powerful & precious resource that is our life force. MAT TIME is when we come together ... To unite our hearts & minds, our breath & bodies ... To prepare our minds, bodies & hearts to be strong & mobile, flexible & fluid, aware & open ... To plant & nourish the seeds we want to grow in our life practice ... To reconnect, to remember, to strengthen, to grow, to release, to clarify ... To create a space. To be still. To listen. To wake up. To align. To get a little closer. One breath. One moment. One intentional choice at a time. ... the practice continues! xo _/\_$

$. RESONANCE It’s been pretty surreal to have my lungs, health & well-being re-emerging - seemingly aligning with the slow but steady emergence of Spring. . After one of the winteryrist of winters, one the sickyiest of seasons, and one of the most tumultuous many many moon cycles energetically ... Sweet Trevor {my Harmonium} has been one of the many casualties. I know! The poor girl has been collecting dust for quite some time. . But, all the while ... just like our yoga mat, just like our meditation cushion, they each patiently await our return. No questions asked. We simply reunite, and begin again, more in love than ever. Have you ever noticed that? Felt that? . So, it’s been pretty surreal to feel the impact on my heart & mind, the resonance at a soul level to be chanting again ... and more specifically to be sharing this practice, with you! Trevor will continue to join us this week in my regular classes ... AND at @cityofom on JUNE 1st! . Yes! CITY OF OM 2019 is coming! Just two months from now, we will transform Landsdowne into the most epic offering our Yoga cOMmunity could possibly imagine. It’s bigger & better than ever ... with an incredible line-up of teachers, speakers, vendors, workshops, experiences, food, music, moments, connection, and so much more (ahem @mcyogi anyone!?). . I have the immense privilege of teaching again this year ... and am dreaming up a wholehearted offering that will create the most blissful balance for your Festival journey: 2 parts SLOW FLOW 1 part MEDITATION 1 part CHANTING Many parts LOVE Trust me, this is going to blast your hearts n minds, bodies, spirits n souls ... wide open. Join Trevor & I for an community experience you won’t forget! .

You might just win your ticket to the Festival!! . . . xo _/\_$

. RITUALS FOR RESILIENCE
This past Friday @loveyourbrain Ottawa hosted our annual #MindfulMarch fundraiser at @pranashantiyoga ...and this year it was a very special offering. One centred around the very community we represent, serve & support.
Although the ‘goal’ is to raise:
LOVE, FUNDS, and
AWARENESS
for the #braininjury community, our fellow brothers & sisters living with #Concussion / #TBI ... the FUNDS piece of the equation can & has overshadowed the former & latter two - LOVE & AWARENESS being the true heart & soul behind it all in the first place. .
This is the eternal double-edged sword w/ any charity or non-profit initiative, w/offering anything that is ‘free’. As I’m sure many of you have experienced first hand!
.
Yes, we need to raise $$ to help fund the $20,000 LoveYourBrain Yoga program that we’ve offered at PranaShanti for the past few years, yet, we also have to run the program, love our own brains + the real conundrum - often the events that bring in the big $$ are at odds w/ the kind of offerings that would best serve our community.
.
So, this year, thanks to extremely generous support from @lululemon (superhero’s) in 2018 we chose to focus first on our COMMUNITY, to prioritize BRAIN LOVE for all & shine some light on one of the foundational pillars that the whole @loveyourbrain program is built upon: RESILIENCY!
.
One of our beloved LYB Teachers, Kathleen Burr, offered a special edition of her popular {Rituals for Resilience Series} in workshop form. And oh my, it was pure bliss. Throughout this magical evening, Kathleen planted seed after seed sharing deep wisdom around self-compassion, self-care, self-love & resiliency, from practices & perspectives, to stories & lived experience, it was a true gift. She is a true gift to our community.
.
Thank you to everyone who came out to love your brain, soothe your soul & strengthen your resilience.
Thank you for supporting our LYB Yoga program thru your ticket and/or donating via our fundraising page (link in BIO). + a special THANK YOU to:
The volunteer team from @apple Rideau centre!!!
Our incredible LYB Teachers
@devinderkauryoga & the @pranashantiyoga team
Real life earth angels. xo

$. SECOND LIFE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS Tomorrow is January 20th. My 8th {second life} birthday. Second life because on that very day, 8 yrs ago, my life both ended & began in the matter of a moment. This was the day I sustained a TBI. And in honesty, I naturally wrote the day I was ‘given’ a TBI {but then edited my words to what you see above}. Isn’t it fascinating that I still have moments of hesitating in speaking what feels true, but hard? . It is on this day that I now choose to celebrate life. THIS life. The life I was given. To LIVE. Call it what you will, but for me it was divine intervention of the most brutal & brilliant kind. The greatest gift I never wanted to receive. A gift I would never give back. And a gift that I would never give to anyone else. A gift I still struggle with. A gift that has given me more than it has taken, at one hefty daily price. Making it one of the reasons this gift is hard to fully reconcile & why I celebrate & bow in reverence to it all. Because isn’t that the truth of it all. This whole life. This being human. This having a body. A mind. This having a heart. A spirit. This having a Soul. This connection to something right here, right now impermanently true AND this connection to something far greater & deeper shared permanently across or beyond time, me & you. Sometimes, or many times, that feels hard to fully reconcile too. And yet I celebrate & bow and revere ‘it’. Somehow I do. The mystery. The unknown. The uncertainty. The love. The One. The truth. Of this life, and living. For me, the two are inseparable. What happened that day, and this greater force that unites us & unites us all. That IS us all. Love (or ___, it has many names). Happy birthday to me. To us all. First life. Second life. Or more. May we live the one we are living. May we love our way thorough. May we celebrate. . And on this day, of THIS January 20th, I have been blessed w the opportunity to unite with YOU, on the mat...in the very room where I taught my 1st official studio class: SUNDAY, 2pm FLOW at @pureyogaottawa Centretown ...because these 2 bless-ed souls @pureyogiamber @pureyogajen believed in my path, believed in what lay ahead.$

$. THE PRACTICE So blessed to have this practice. The capital P practice of it all. The capital Y yoga of it all. The capital H humanity of it all. The capital D divinity & capital S soul of it all. So devoted, to it’s depths, it’s reach, it’s unending possibilities. Wherever I am. In geography. In body. On mat. Or on cushion. On foot. In car. On Bike. Chair. Or Laying. At home. Or at work. Away. Or here. Or in between. On or off. In mind. In state of being. Emotion or feeling. In thought, word, or speech. Behaviour, choice, action seen or unseen. In relationship with self. With others. In heart. In healing. In spirit. In Soul. Inside and out. Within and without. Connected or not. Aligned or lost. The practice is there. It’s all there, for you. Each of these layers, a world to behold. A world to unfold. The practice is there. Love. So blessed to have this Practice. xo _/\_$

. SACRED
All of it. May it be so.
As light meets darkness.
Sunset.
As darkness meets light.
Sunrise.
The teachings of the sky,
the wisdom of light, and of night.
Each day. Every day.
We are reminded.
A fragment of what we can turn to,
to remember.
.
.
When we are
in the dark.
When we are
in the light.
When we are
in the light, covered by dark clouds.
Ours. Others.
A moment. A day. A chapter. A season.
When we are
in the dark, and trust there,
in the returning of the light,
and trust there, that it has never gone.
.
.
Sun and moon.
Rising. Falling.
The spaces in between.
Each a part of the other.
Each a part of the whole.
Each necessary. Each connected. Each exceptionally, you and me.
.
.
When we are
in the dark,
like the hidden sun on a cloudy day. Like the moon & stars in a blanket of night.
We are, still radiating light.
The sun keeps rising.
Clouds or not.
May we keep rising,
through it all.
Sacred. All of it. May it be so.
.
.
“A truly spiritual person lives for Truth, and breathes for Love.” - Mata Amritandamayi (Amma)
.
.
If you arrive in a moment like this.
May we pause in the space, the grace, the wisdom and teachings of our source - and trust, and love - that we are made of this too.
.
.
.
If you arrive HERE & flip to picture (video) four.
May we pause together, in space and time. And be in this moment.
May we live for Truth. And breathe for love.
Be still. Close your eyes. And feel the powers of the ocean.
She teaches us too.
Feel the waves, ebb & flow.
Each rise & each fall.
And the deep enduring stillness, the peace beneath it all.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Slow it all down.
Sacred. All of it. May it be so.

$. P E A C E In any moment there is possibility. For this: Peace. For anything. . . . It’s all right here. It’s already inside. What is it that helps us to know it, touch it, feel it, see it, hear it, connect with it, be it. That is the journey. . . . Deep reverence to the experiences & encounters we’ve been blessed by at @habitastulum so far. Thank you @swanloveyoga & Jafeth for being exactly who you are, and gracing us with your love, wisdom, presence and truth. . . .

$. TRUSTING, IN Greeting This day This breath This moment This choice ... With an open heart And soft edges ... As open as I can be As soft as I can be With as much trust as I can muster One breath. One moment. One intentional choice at a time. ... Feeling the resistance The discomfort The dissonance The heaviness That is present. That arises. That has been. And is. That is moving, speaking, stirring, awakening, gracing, hurting & healing. ... Doing my best To allow Instead of avoid. To receive Instead of push away. To listen Instead of pretend to know. To be with, it all. ... Trusting, IN. ... Break Down. Breaking In. Open. Upwards. Break Through. ... This practice. This life. It’s true It only works...if you do. And that work begins in any moment, in every moment, you are willing. To practice. ... 1.1 we remember. I remember. ... Permission granted. I am willing. I will keep practicing, I will keep showing up, I will trust. I will be your vessel. Down, in, open, up, and through. Again & again. Here I am. ... Not easy. Not easy. And let’s be VERY CLEAR, even in paradise. Especially in paradise. Even w/ loving support. Epic blessings around you. Sometimes all that layers on - well - more layers. And as beloved Jon Kabat-Zinn will forever whisper in our hearts, “wherever you go, there you are.” What these special opportunities can grant us, if we are intentional enough, clear enough, and yes, courageous enough ... is a sacred pause. To turn IN. To tune IN. Instead of tuning OUT. Instead of turning our attention outwards away from the discomfort, inner resistance & dissonance that will simply await our ‘return’. Literally & figuratively. To ask for support. Love. Patience. Time. What you really need. Not easy. Not easy. Worth it. And as I write this. Know I am writing this to myself, and perhaps you. A reminder. A soulful remembering. To believe. To trust. To know. ... then to align. With our whole. Life. xo _/\_$

$. TATTERED TORN ‘N BEAUTIFUL This beloved jean shirt may be my most favouritest piece of clothing {aside from my @lululemon #align pants, of course}. . This guy’s been on so many journeys with me, crossed many oceans, kept me layered & warm during trainings, meditations, walks, cuddles, coffees, chats, meals, and yoga practices. . Tattered, torn ‘n beautiful indeed. With each rip, a new “love line”... with each new fray, I loved him more. Mmmmm Love Lines. “Life” Lines. Signs of Life Lived. Each fray = a story, a moment, an experience, a transition, a beginning, an end. And all the breaths shared in between. . AND, he’s seen better days. ;) A few rips & frays were extra zealous - going right to the seams. Both sleeves hanging by a thread. I thought about replacing him. I’ve even been out shopping & tried on a few possibilities... but there is no replacing this guy. If I could save him or find a way to buy us more time together - then that’s what I resolved to do! . Recalling the many comments & confusion he’s elicited - especially since the last few deep rips - like “what is the point of this shirt?” and “why don’t you just buy a new one?” and “would you like me to help mend it for you?”. Oh my heart!! So incredible! I was inspired! . For many of us, our default mode is to toss things aside that are a bit tattered, torn, worn down, or broken. Why? Many reasons. Perhaps because buying a new item seems much easier, new is more ‘sparkly’, and repairing things seems to have fallen out of favour. Many of us didn’t learn repairing skills and/or these services are harder to come by (depending on what type of thing we’re trying to repair) + sometimes it comes at a premium due to lower demand ... so off to the store we go to buy a NEW ONE & throw out the old. . Well not this time!! . Invoking the epic sewing skills of my mama & the many incredible souls that inspired me over the years to get my sew on, here I am. Today I pulled out my rickety sewing skills ... I chose to leave a bunch of his rips just as they are. Love lines. Life lived. ... and bought this guy a few more ... years!? _/\_ Tattered. Torn. AND Beautiful. xo$
