Happy Friday, Yogi’s ✨ Last theme was our roots, our home, our grounding. And amazingly, my good friend shared some words with me that became my mantra instantly: “be the seed!” Be the seed of what you want to see! Be the seed, of Kindness, of Compassion, of Friendship, of Love… and what a wonderful thought as we lean into love-season. But I strongly felt those as we go through so much right now. “Be the Seed,” is repeating in my mind ♥️☺️✨ And one of my students/friends shared that she likes it when I video the flow for the week, she can break it down in her own time. I’m so happy! So here it is. Much love to @angelyn42 & @elainedochard. You both touched me this week! 🙏🏼

I promise, I’m not a flexible person, not without a ton of work! You’ve heard about my titanium spine and dislocated hips, right?! So when I tell you these poses are possible, I can say from personal experience. Let’s give this variation on a split a try! My #1 tip in almost all cases: work the ribcage forward and down the front leg, elongate the hamstrings. And always always, breathe! Tell me if you want to give it a try!

Well, we just finished our week of grounding into our “home” and roots (more outtakes & part of our flow on Bosu-ball in stories). How do you all feel after the hip work?
With all of that balance in our flow, I started to think about the Bosu ball? Do you all know it? It’s a dome-shaped fitness ball thing with a flat side, to master your balance!! I’ve seen the posts and thought “no way!” So what do I do when I hear “no way?”… of course I have to shatter that “no!”🤣 Give it a try and let me know how you do! 💪🏼 And always, have some fun with it! Should I bring this into class? Or maybe a Longevity: balance workshop soon?! 🤔✨

Thank you, my yoga fam, for joining me this week! This was part of what we flowed, exploring into our roots, our home, our safety. We did a little compass and Visvamitrasana at the end, what do you feel like next week? ✨🤗

“I left my soul… on the Pacific Coast.”
It’s been such a week! There are no words. The absolute devastation, and the beauty of the soul of Los Angeles, shining through the ash, as strong and as beautiful as our LA sun.
Life can feel unbearable at times, but just like a balance asana, strength comes trom within. In these moments, we are forced to grow stronger, find balance, and be resilient. Never give up, even when it feels impossible, be brave and keep going —we have to.
Yoga reminds us that strength isn’t just physical; it’s the courage to keep going, to find that something deep within, to put one foot in front of the other when we don’t feel we can take one more step. Remember, we are not born with strength. It’s something that we develop and find deep inside.
With exhaustion after a week of emotion, I played around trying to find that balance today. Lots of wobbles, like everyone here these days. Just feeling our way through these next steps.
Stay strong, stay balanced, and have faith.
