✨ Diwali — The Festival of Lights ✨
Today marks the beginning of Diwali, a celebration of light over darkness and wisdom over ignorance.

In yoga, light (jyoti) is not only a symbol — it’s an experience that arises from within. Patanjali describes this in Sutra I.36: viśokā vā jyotiṣmatī — “The mind may become clear and steady by meditating on the inner light, free from sorrow, that shines in the heart.”

As we light the outer lamps this week, may we also turn inward and remember that same luminous presence within — the steady flame that remains untouched by change, time, or circumstance.

Through our practice, may we uncover that light, let it guide our path, and allow it to illuminate the hearts of others.

Wishing you all a bright and heart-centered Diwali 🪔

When I was in Japan, I came across the concept of Ikigai (生きがい) — often translated as “a reason for being.”

It’s the sweet spot where what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can share or offer all overlap.
Not a job or a goal, but a quiet sense of purpose that makes each morning feel meaningful.

In Japan, Ikigai isn’t something you chase — it’s something you live into, little by little, through your daily rhythm, your relationships, and your care for what you do.

I’ve been reflecting on how yoga has been my Ikigai all along — a way to align what brings me joy, what serves others, and what keeps my heart steady. ✨

Maybe we each have our own Ikigai waiting to be noticed — in how we move, breathe, love, and create.

It’s been an epic week here at ! These retreats always mean so much to me as I love being able to share with people so much about Yoga AND a cultural experience of where we visit. However, Bali is particularly special to me. Being able to share with people the magic of Bali has been a dream. Thank you to our amazing yoga friends for trekking out from the States to this beautiful island. Thank you to the amazing hospitality of Soulshine, Bali. And a very special thank you to my husband, , for making this all happen so seamlessly!

Need to reawaken and reinspire your yoga practice?

Dedicating a weekend to immerse yourself in your yoga practice is vital for forging a deeper connection with your self and the broader aspects of asana and philosophy. Spending extensive time on your mat allows you to refine your techniques, build physical strength and flexibility, and enhance mental clarity and emotional balance. This concentrated practice can lead to a richer understanding of yoga principles, helping you integrate them into your daily life more effortlessly.

Whether you’re dropping in for one workshop session, or allowing yourself the full 10 hour experience, you will be guaranteed to find personal growth!

I had such a blast teaching my in person workshop today at the Walnut Creek! I absolutely love helping people explore more nuance and depth in their practice. Yoga is a practice that we can take through our entire lives if we take the time to learn it and refine it. I’m looking forward to repeating this workshop online tomorrow through ! (Still room 😜)

The power and importance of Savasana has been resonating with me deeply lately.

“Now, SAVASANA is about relaxation, but what prevents relaxation? - Tension.
Tension results from clutching tightly to life - and in turn being held by the myriad invisible threads that tie us to the known world, the known “I”, and the known environment contact that give us our sense of identity. (…)
To relax is to cut tension. To cut tension is to cut the threads that bind us to identity. To lose identity is to find out who we are not.”

~Guruji BKS Iyengar

Took to take class with at the .room this morning! I used to practice with her pretty religiously when I was a wee yoga lad. These classes were so important to me during a vulnerable time in my life. So much fun to step back into this yoga room and share it with Michael!

It’s been such an incredible week studying with HS Arun, ! Amazing practices, amazing time spent with yoga friends, and loads of inspiration! At this point in my studies with Arun over the years, I’m much more interested in the presence and connection he creates with students than any specific technique he is teaching. These last few days have been a strong reminder as to what it means to walk the path of Yoga.

Spending time with is always a powerful reminder as to what Yoga is really all about! It’s so easy to get lost in little cul-de-sacs of distraction throughout life and then to bring those same distractions into our practice. But, really it should be the other way around. Yoga is a tool to help us be at more peace in our minds and in our lives.
