Love to see science confirming what we already know - yoga is good for us!

This article (linked in my stories!) sums it up perfectly: “The holistic mind-body practice of yoga provides physical and mental health benefits through four main components: breathing, physical relaxation, mindfulness meditation and postures.”

Practice with me from the comfort of your own home, live every Monday night or with my library of videos (link in bio) ✨

I know I’ve been quiet on here, but I want to remind you that our Monday night Yin practice is still going strong! Drop in any Monday at 7:30pm to get your yin fix, often served with a side of myofascial release. Leave a comment below if you wanna come to class and I’ll send you the info 🥰

When I started practicing yoga many years ago, my practice was totally focused on the physical.

Over time, I've learned that there's so much more to yoga than the poses, and we only scratch the surface in public classes.

I'm starting a deeper conversation about yoga with a Yoga Study Circle for 2023. It costs nothing and there's no commitment.

If you've ever read something super interesting about yoga and wished everyone you know would read it so you could talk about it - this is for you 🤓

⭐️ Starts 10/17! ⭐️

In this 6-week series, explore the dynamics of Yin & Yang and the Five Elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine through practices for the physical & energetic body, including yin yoga, acupressure, and self myofascial release.

You’ll get six slow-paced and thoughtful yin yoga and meditation practices, delivered right to your screen - join live on Mondays 7:30pm, or watch the recordings (you get to keep those, too!)

In each practice we’ll cover the characteristics of each element and how to tap into them for support - in your practice AND your day-to-day.

Learn specific ways to harness the characteristics of each element to tend to your garden of well-being through life’s natural cycles.

It’s cool if you have no experience and want to start something new! Or if you’ve been looking for a way back to your home practice, this is a low-risk way to keep yourself accountable and learn some fun new stuff at the same time. Comment or DM your questions! 💕

As my own practice evolved over time, I found myself in motion less often, and constantly craving stillness. There’s something so magical about quiet time spent with yourself… and there’s so much about our bodies to be interested in. Yin practice has helped me learn to love stillness and quiet, where I can hear the subtle messages from my body and soul.

There’s a place for movement, too, of course - but you won’t find much of that in anything I teach. I think you’ll find our Monday night Yin practice is a good way to ease into the stillness, a structured time for slowing down, listening to our bodies, reflecting and responding with loving attention.

We’d love for you to join us - link is in my bio for more info.

This is why I do what I do!

has been a regular in my Monday night yin for the past year(!) and has shared with me, many times, how great she feels on Tuesdays! It’s not the thanks I do it for, but the benefits that YOU get from setting aside an hour to take care of yourself in a tangible and proactive way.

Join us on any Monday night and see how Tuesday can feel for you 🥰

I’ve made it a priority to offer plenty of flexibility in commitment and pricing for our online practice together.

You’ll notice that the unlimited pass is a lot less 💰 per class than the drop-in options, and that’s because I want to emphasize the benefits of a consistent practice. Making a commitment to show up every week (or do the recordings on your own) has made such a difference in my own practice, and I wanted you to have that same opportunity for structure and support. 💕

I deliberately priced my unlimited options in a way that still leaves room in your budget for you to practice with other teachers, which I highly encourage - it’s important to learn from diverse people with different perspectives. 🌎

The link in my bio will take you right to my online shop to get your pass. If you have questions about how to sign up, I’m here to make it smooth and easy for you, so comment or message me and I will hook you up with all the info ✨

I’ve been quiet here, in part because I’ve been prioritizing rest. Most of the time, I genuinely enjoy a harder movement practice, like a run or a strength training session. Other times, I don’t have the energy to get off the couch. (Lately, it’s a lot more of the latter.)

If you’re feeling unmotivated, restless, or even cold, more yang activities might be the move for you today. Maybe you go for a walk/run/hike, lift some weights, or move through a vinyasa flow.

Or maybe you’re overwhelmed, overworked, and exhausted. Maybe your body craves a nap, a massage, or a hot bath. All that matters is that you hear what your body is telling you and respond to that. Rest is just as critical as movement, and it isn’t something to be earned - you inherently deserve it.

The most important thing to remember is that you can make a different choice tomorrow. It’s great to have a schedule and a plan, but our bodies are a lot more nuanced and will let us know what’s right and when.

Honor your natural cycles and rhythms. Find activities - active and restful - that you and your body both love. Move when it’s right, meditate when it’s right, rest when it’s right - for YOU.

End of an era 😢 The collective will be closing on November 1st.

Thanks to those who supported the collective over the past year. It was so wonderful to be a part of this community and I will definitely miss it! I’m grateful that Jennifer opened up for me the possibilities of teaching yoga online, and while I’m sad that we’re not able to keep the collective running right now, I’m very happy to tell you that my Monday night Yin class will continue online! (Stay tuned for all the details.)

And please continue supporting the teachers who are part of the collective, whether it’s an IG follow or attending a class, we all sincerely appreciate your support!

I’m coming up on the 7th anniversary of completing my first 200-hour training, and I’ve been thinking about all of the wonderful people who have come through my classes over the years!

Here are a few very nice things that some very nice people have said about my classes. I am truly grateful for the many opportunities I’ve had to lead a yoga practice for all of you.

If you’ve practiced with me, whether you were a regular or dropped in once… I’d love to hear about your experience! Please feel free to comment here or DM me if you prefer. I appreciate every single one of you ❤️

Even though I think yin yoga is amazing, it might not be what you need right now and that’s OKAY.

If you’re feeling unmotivated, restless, or even cold, more yang activities might be the move for you today. Whether you want to go for a walk/run/hike, lift some weights, or vinyasa flow, all that matters is that you hear what your body is telling you and respond to that. 💕

If you’re looking for a movement-based class that’s not too fast, considers your unique structure, and gives you lots of choices, check out the Movement section in my on-demand library! Mobility/strength work, foam rolling, myofascial release, and some fun twists on well-known asanas all make an appearance in there ☺️

Access to my on-demand library of live class recordings and shorter, prerecorded practices is included with your monthly unlimited pass through (use my code BACK2YIN for $5 off before 9/30) or check out the link in my profile for a direct access option ⚡️
