🌊 Speaker-Author-Life Coach Trainer-Yoga & Meditation Educator-Kripalu & Esalen faculty

For the last 15 years teaching I start most worksh

For the last 15 years teaching I start most workshops saying something like “the world is falling apart, and what if that was the good news?” And if the world is falling apart what do we want to create together?
.
.
When I keep asking myself “what can I do, how can I sincerely contribute” I have to remind myself I PUBLISHED A BOOK THIS YEAR during a pandemic-when it feels like the world as we know it is falling apart. And what if that was the good news. I am not saying what has happened is “good”—but rather it’s simply time that the pain, destruction, and hurt we continue to pass on needs to end.
.
.
I don’t think this book will end all of the worlds problems—but—I do think if “we” really did the work in this book—like actually did the work—the world would change. We would collectively shift the course of existence. We would contribute to a more conscious and evolved society.
.
.
I’ve created a goal to sell 1,000 books in the next month and will donate all of the proceeds to make this world a better place-supporting the planet, black lives,our sacred lands, protecting children, education reform and water. There is a lot of work to be done.
.
At first I thought 1,000 books in one month- how will I be able to do that? Well, I need your help to want to make this world a better place too-which I know you do. So many of “us” have been looking for “what can I do?”....Well, I can guarantee, if you dive deep and DO this book- you will be supporting a better world.
.
.
The world is falling apart. Thank goodness—the time really is now. To order a copy of my book—link is in my bio. Please consider helping me share the book- share it with a friend-tag someone else who is looking for the next step. And- you don’t need to be into “yoga” to get a lifetime of inquiries from this book. From my heart, thank you. 💕

What if one step in the "right" direction was to f

What if one step in the "right" direction was to feel and heal our own grief, so we can feel and heal the grief of the world? What if part of waking up, was to stop disassociating from our own pain, so we can stop disassociating from the world's pain? I'm not saying this is THE answer, but what if it was a skillful step?

My home is truly a sacred space to me. A place of

My home is truly a sacred space to me. A place of practice, love, joy and grief, freedom and creativity. It feels vulnerable to share my home “online”—yet, at the same time—it feels time to be open in a new way.
.
So here I am, opening my barn, a piece of my home, my heart, my love of Yoga in all of it’s forms with those that are ready to begin this journey.
.
Our Blue Barn has transformed into our “online yoga studio”, where for the next few months we will dive into the depths of what it means to begin the journey of being a facilitator or “teacher” of yoga.
.
We have 10 days left for the early bird pricing and only 5 spots remain for our training. This truly is an ALL STAR STAFF, in my eyes, some of the best of the best. I know an online Yoga Teacher Training is not for everyone, and that is more than ok—but I can promise you, if you say YES to this journey you will be held, supported, seen, and encouraged every step of the way.
.
We welcome you to our hOMe…to the heart of yoga, to community, truth, evolution and transformation.

Lahari = Wave. . I've been at Kripalu for 13 years

Lahari = Wave.
.
I've been at Kripalu for 13 years now and when we heard the news that Kripalu was going to be closed to in-person programming until 2021 --that was A HUGE WAVE for many of us to ride. AND....It called us to rise up, but more importantly come together. And so we did.
.
The power of having a practice. A practice that teaches you how to "ride the waves" is how we were able to say "ok, this wave was not a wave we wanted to ride--but WE CAN'T CHANGE THE OCEAN, we can only get better at riding whatever wave comes in.
.
So here we are beyond excited and in AWE of the mysterious ways life calls us forth as we begin this journey with an amazing ALL STAR FACULTY, curious seekers, and a dedication to doing better, being better, and ultimately learning how to ride the waves of life more skillfully. Will yoga ends all of the worlds problems? No. But do I think it can provide a technology to move us in the right direction. Absolutely.
.
If it interests you to learn to ride the waves, with more skill + grace--this might be your training. Not everyone wants an online YTT, that is OK--honestly, it wasn't until a few months ago that I would have ever realized the power of community--even through a screen--because the truth is--when I/you/we are dedicated and interested in truth, there is always a way to connect and do the work.
.
I say this just for information, not as a way to rush anyone into signing up.....but.....we only have a few spots left, early-bird ends soon and we do have funding for awards to be offered.
.
Let's ride the waves, let's do the work that needs to get done--together.
.
And of course, your willingness to share this with anyone who might be interested is appreciated.

I have quit the "yoga world" at least a thousand t

I have quit the "yoga world" at least a thousand times since I've been a part of it--probably more. I've thought, maybe I'll be a flower farmer or go to law school or run for office or just go find the most quiet place in the world and build a tiny house.
.
.
And yet. Here I am, 25+ years later. Still here. Though at times I strongly dislike/disagree with the "wellness and yoga world"--when I come back to what capital "Y" Yoga is to me, I remember there is work to be done--in myself, in the "yoga world", and in our greater community. And when I view yoga as "getting comfortable being uncomfortable, skillful participation and engagement, inquiry and truth" I remember, this is exactly where I want to be and the exact work I want to be doing--even when it's uncomfortable, even when I don't skillfully engage, and when I don't want to participate.
.
.
I've said this before, but worth saying again--in my opinion—Yoga is not necessarily going to end all of the world's problems, but I do believe in every cell of my being, entering the doorway of Yoga is a step in the right direction.
.
.
Because Kripalu has shut its in person programs down for the year (there are many wonderful offerings online), this truly DREAM TEAM STAFF has joined together to share Yoga--for the sake of Truth, Change, a more Evolved Society. Are we perfect, no. Do we deeply care, yes. Are we committed, yes. Even if you don't want to do our training, you definitely want to check out who is contributing to this training.
.
.
Our faculty is committed to making a shift in the "yoga world".
.
.
If you have thought of doing your Yoga Teacher Training--you may want to take a peak. At this time, Yoga Alliance is allowing all approved Yoga Schools to lead their training 100% online. I never knew an online training could be so powerful--I resisted it deeply--but the last few months this is where I have been teaching, and from my experience, I am witnessing lives changing. And, of course, if online trainings are not for you, no need to comment :) we are all doing our part, this is ours.
.
Link is in bio and some quick details -awards available, early bird pricing, starts July 10 and 7 spots remain.

It’s certainly not a solution to the worlds prob

It’s certainly not a solution to the worlds problems, but it is one of the ways I am trying to contribute to an evolved society. Quarter-Life Calling Online Immersion begins today. Thank you to my community that has encouraged and supported me. ❤️

Just because someone does not post about something

Just because someone does not post about something does not mean they aren’t interested, doing the work, having the hard conversations, or taking action. Maybe they just don’t want to spend time online when they could be getting the work done. Just my 2 cents this morning.☀️And, it’s true - you never need to agree with someone else.
Especially online.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I AM MAKING THIS ANNOUNCEMENT --an

I CAN'T BELIEVE I AM MAKING THIS ANNOUNCEMENT --and honestly I never knew I had it in me.
.
.
For YEARS I've had people encouraging me to share online and for YEARS I've resisted. Deeply resisted. I didn't think I could make a real impact online. And, well, I was proven wrong. Thank you to everyone for calling me forth-to trust this new way of being and sharing. All we can do, is contribute to our evolving society. And this is one of my ways.
.
.
With the news of Kripalu closing for the year--we have decided to take our gifts online. Sooooo......drum roll.....

Scratching your head, wondering what to do? You do

Scratching your head, wondering what to do? You don’t need to do everything to do something. What is getting your attention, what keeps you up, what moves you—find some small or big way to contribute. We are weaving our existence together. Some voices are LOUD, some voices are soft—but all voices need to be heard. Tell me, what is calling you + what are you prepared to do about it?
