It's time to begin the new year year with learning about one of the best medicines that is found right inside your own body: Your Breath.

Breathe well = Live well.

I look forward to welcoming you to the The Seed Lodge for the beautiful retreat January 10-12, 2025 where you will learn all about the most important breaths to support your mental and emotional health. This course is eligible for psychotherapy coverage for those with insurance plans (Ontario and Quebec). It's great for health care providers, yoga teachers looking for a little self-care getaway, as well as new techniques to share with the clients they work with. To sign up:

"When you understand the link between your breath, body, emotions & mind, AND you have a small tool box of breathwork practices to turn to, you are well equipped to deal with all kinds of stress that will come up in your life."

For those of you who cannot make the trek out to these parts to join us in person, I am also offering the course online beginning January 14th, 2025. To sign up and for more information:

Hey everyone!

Hey everyone!
The Seed Lodge is opening its doors this autumn. I wanted to share with you this super exciting opportunity for anyone that needs some quiet time to focus and write. A Room of One’s Own at the SEED lodge is 7-days out of your daily life & responsibilities to immerse yourself completely in your writing life. The SEED lodge is a writer’s paradise, expansive views amongst rolling hills and large expanses of sky, forest, fields and flowers, but most importantly, there is peace and quiet. It is the ideal respite after intense hours of writing. It is two hours north of Toronto near Georgian Bay.

You will have a beautiful private room with a single bed and a desk and access to lovely and functional common areas both indoors and out for you to relax at, write, dream or meditate. There are 56 acres to explore when you need a break and for those of you who need your daily latte, a cute coffee camper down the road. More importantly, you are in the creative hub with the support of 8 other writers alongside you. Held 4 times a year, this is your chance to write that book you have been always dreaming of (or just finish that neverending PhD…).

The cost is $750 + tax for a full week. This includes a one time $30 application fee.

It's time to breathe everyone!
Begin with Breath, my 5 week introduction to somatic breathing (and everything else you need to know about life) begins TONIGHT at 6:30 live on zoom.
Breath + Body + Attention = Calm + Peace + Love. 😀😍🥰

All classes are recorded and full course manual is included... as well as many guided audio meditations. Lots of good stuff 😀

Anxiety is truly a mental condition... it lives in a mind divorced from its own body and, to a certain extent from reality itself. In yoga we call it the "monkey mind" and it is wild.
The solution to feeling less anxiety is to focus less on your thoughts, feel more of your body, notably more of your breath.
SImply bringing your awareness to your breath immediately slows it down, even if it is slightly. Slowing your breath down reduces anxiety. This has been clinically proven.
Learning how to work with and regulate your breath shifts your experience and relationship to your anxiety, by adding your body into the equation and helping you remember:

YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN YOUR THOUGHTS.

Now is the time to say good bye to anxiety and hello to your body and breath.

BEGIN WITH BREATH (my 5 week introduction to somatic breathing course) begins TUESDAY, MAY 7th @ 6:30-8:00pm EST and runs for 5 weeks. It's live on zoom and you have access to all the recordings, a super cool gang to learn with, as well as a course manual and pre-recorded audio meditations. 😀 (lots of good stuff to help you start breathing and keep breathing).

Can't wait to breathe with you!

You don't just practice breathwork or meditation for yourself. You practice it because of the effect it has on others and the effects that it produces in the world.

There is enough turmoil and strife right now to last for generations.

Breathe the change you want to see in the world.

In psychology, there is a term we refer to as resiliency.⁠

⁠Resilience is the ability to withstand adversity and bounce back from difficult life events. Being resilient does not mean a person doesn't experience stress, emotional upheaval, and suffering. It means that the stress, emotional upheaval or suffering can dissipate or can turn into something else.⁠

⁠In order to be resilient, you need to have a strong nervous system.⁠

⁠To develop a strong nervous system, you need prana.⁠

Prana is life force energy or vitality.

⁠You develop a relationship with prana by breathing consciously.⁠

⁠That’s why breathing is how to get through anything.⁠ FOR REAL.

Learn how to breathe this April. 5-week class begins April 23.
