In early April, I hung my first photography exhibit in over a decade. Preparing these images for display felt deeply meaningful, and a chance to share visual stories from a land that has touched my heart and continues to call me back.

I am delighted to share that a collection of photographs from my travels to Tanzania is currently on exhibit. The collection features nine images that capture the beauty, rhythm, and wild spirit of the land and its remarkable wildlife.

Artist Talk & Reception
A Photographic Journey: The Wild Spirit of Tanzania

I warmly invite you to join me this Saturday, June 6, from 6–8 PM at Bluebird Sky Yoga. Doors open at 5:30 PM, offering time to explore the artwork before the artist talks begin.

Throughout the evening, you’ll have the opportunity to hear from and engage in conversation with the three featured artists, with time for questions and discussion.

You can find more information and the registration link in my bio. I would love to see you there and share these images, stories, and experiences with you.

And if these photographs awaken something within you, I invite you to take the journey even further. This November, join me in Tanzania to create your own stories and images on a transformative 10-day adventure:

This Sunday brings another session of Plant Spirit Yoga, this time at Circle Yoga in Chevy Chase. As an herbalist, I like to share about plant medicine in an accessible way.

In this nourishing exploration of plant energetics and movement, we will connect with stinging nettle, Urtica dioica, a mineral-rich, deeply nutritive plant with a long history of supporting vitality.

Join me this Sunday, June 7, 3-4:30pm, to experience a deeper connection to the plant world and feel the revitalizing energy of stinging nettles.

Happy Earth Day 🌎🌍🌏

Today we honor Mother Earth in all her expression. From the fleeting tenderness of spring beauties, the enthusiasm of pollinators, to the fierce persistence of invasive plants.

Each has its place, its purpose, its way of belonging. All in relationship, each presence creating ripples that affect the whole.

As you move through your day,
may you walk gently upon the earth and carry a sense of wonder with every step.

Today carried the kind of weather that invites retreat, an instinct to curl inward, to build a quiet blanket fort against the biting cold and relentless winds.

After offering a nurturing Reiki session, I was drawn to the singing bowls, letting their gentle vibrations root me into my body as the wind sang wildly outside.

May you feel grounded, wrapped in warmth, and softly supported as you move through these biting cold and blustery days.
🌀
If you feel a quiet nudge to receive Reiki, I welcome you to send me a message and we can explore what support might serve you now. 🤍

The knee is the largest and one of the most complex joints in the body—and also one of the most commonly injured. If you experience knee pain, are recovering from an injury, have arthritis, or simply want to keep your knees healthy and resilient, this workshop at Circle Yoga is for you.

We’ll explore the anatomy of the knee joint, refine alignment in common yoga postures, and strengthen the muscles of the legs that support and protect the knees.

Through mindful movement and accessible practices, we’ll create greater connection, invite more ease, and support healthy mobility in these vital joints.

All levels welcome. No prior yoga experience required.

Join us in-studio or online, or sign up to receive the recording!

This retreat is an invitation into that experience.

As the year gently closes —on the eve of the Winter Solstice, guided by new moon energy—we are invited into a sacred space of endings and new beginnings. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have led Supportive Yoga for Larger Bodies this past year on Saturdays at Circle Yoga What began as an interim role blossomed into meaningful connections with both seasoned practitioners and those brand new to yoga—beautiful reminders that yoga truly is for every body.

While I will miss our Saturday mornings together in community, I’m happy that Caryn will be stepping into the teacher’s seat beginning in January.

With heartfelt gratitude and loving-kindness. ✨
