As a flight attendant, yoga teacher and trainer, i feel like i went through the list of ‘most risky jobs during a pandemic’ and picked the top 3. 😕🥲😑

The anxiety is real! As everything is locked down for the 3rd time I thought about all the progress we’ve all made- I had just started getting to know and love my yoga community, i just got my cpt etc etc. All these attachments are natural and human! I had to remind myself that the universe always provides! 🙏🏼✨

And there are so many other ways to connect and build our community! (If anyone wants online classes or training let me know!) ⚡️

I don’t meditate everyday (i should though, i forgot how grounding and empowering it is to just feel and be still) but i had to do a quick one this morning from my little hotel room! Feeling a little better!

Sending good intentions to everyone!

What’s your favorite way to move or workout? 💃🏻🕺🏻🏃🏽‍♀️

Genuinely interested! Always searching for unfamiliar ways to move familiar muscle 🙏🏼 so if you want to recommend new workouts let me know please!

I’ve been doing a combination of yoga, strength training, HIIT, dog walking, day napping, controlling mild anxiety, and trying not to break down lately! 🤣😂😅😭✨

How do YOU move?

Bending into autumn/winter like nobody’s bizznizzz 💁🏽‍♀️❄️

In class I always try to highlight the balance between strength and flexibility- sthira and sukha. Backbends are great ways to understand your body and how your mind and emotions react to this spinal extension. It’s not a shape we come into on a regular basis. It feels weird. It feels vulnerable.

It is in these postures, though, that I feel like we find ourselves. These postures of vulnerability, where we’re a bit uncomfy, where we start to question why we’re doing what we’re doing.

In these rare moments where we’re on our mats questioning ourselves, just noticing what the hells going on in our bodies- i think this is where we begin to find alignment with who we really are. Do i push back from challenges? Am i too aggressive? Am i too hard hard on myself? Am i squeezing myself into shapes not meant for me now? 🧐

Too many questions! But that’s why we practice!

Join me for a backbend series for the rest of October at !

Oh, so you DON’T wake up at the crack of dawn and take a 5k walk to watch the sun rise and meditate upside down for an hour every morning? 😦 Weird...

Om asato ma sadgamaya
ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय
Lead me from untruth to truth
📿

Is it just me, or is it hard to stick to your own truth? I feel like there are too many external or societal factors that make it hard to live your truth.

Too many of us go to university to pursue a degree we’re not entirely passionate about because it’s what’s expected of us.

Too many of us are stuck working jobs that make us unhappy because it’s accepted, it pays the bills, it’s comfortable.

We try to only share the ups and highlights in our lives because we think that’s what’s acceptable. Hiding the mess in our homes and our failures.

It’s not wrong or right though. It is what it is. Based on personal experience though, it’s insanely liberating to share your truth. ❤️

Am i living my full truth though? Nope. It’s a journey. I still find it hard to trust myself at times but who doesn’t? 🤷🏽‍♀️

I LOVE the mantra above. It reminds me to reflect, look within and recalibrate myself to live out my truth, my passion, what makes me happy. ✨

Just sharing this mantra too in case someone needs it. ❤️

Hellewwww i’m back and i’m 30!!! Whew 😅

STILL not at a place i thought i would be by 30, family-wise, career, fitness- but i’m glad i can say i’m content where i am ❤️ i’ve always trusted the universe. Whenever life gets me down, it’s something i always go back to.

I am exactly where i am meant to be! I try to trust myself and walk towards a path i believe in and love ✨

So if you’re not in a good place right now, just wanted to share that i’m not too! It’s ok to be not ok! If you’re in the same boat, we’ll make it! And spread kindness and love as we make it!

Just in case, my life right now:
😫 no job, jumpstarting my yoga journey again, struggling studying anatomy, rejected from a couple of jobs i applied for. 🙃

😋but also! Spent my 30th with a few close family and a friend ( )❤️, got my first yoga gig, feeling the strongest i have ever been, i have a home, a hubby and a puppy!!! 🥰

Tough tough year, you guys! Kudos to those killing it! I’m not- and i’m ok with it 😚

Thanks for the bday wishes!!! If you haven’t yet, feel free to comment. 😂😂😂 love you all!

Nobody:
Absolutely no one:
Me: ok guys, this way!

You’re welcome! If it weren’t for me pointing in this unnecessary way, you’d never know where the path was. 👍🏽

Have a great Monday and Labor day, everyone!!! ✨🙏🏼

Monday again, you guysss. 😳 To anyone that needs a little reminder- you don’t have to force yourself to have a or a or a kind of vibe. It’s ok to admit that you just CANNOT. Not today, Monday! Duuuuude weekends can be tough too!

Woke up wanting to do so many productive things! Ended up on my mat sphinx-ing and forward folding (of course had to take photo(s) lololol 😂😂😂).

Sometimes your headspace just isn’t there and the weight of everything going on in the world is so overwhelming! (Freaking myself out all over again tbh) 😂 i constantly need to remind myself or relearn this mindset of “fixing yourself right away”, “be happy”, “look on the bright side”. It’s OK to be sad, to admit you’re not up to it or to wallow and accept. ❤️🙏🏼 i find facing your sadness head on, detoxifies more than you think. ✨

So enjoy just being you this monday! Or this week! I’mma curl up in a fetal position now. 😅
