โLAST DAYโ TO REGISTER FOR THE 2021 YIN TRAINING โฏ๏ธ LINK IN MY BIO ๐
Yin Yoga really is the art of learning how to slow down and become more in-tune with what is. I've found that it's only with that awareness of present circumstances that I can make an informed decision to better my circumstances and co-create the life I want to lead.
By taking this training you'll learn how to access that kind of presence via the simple and long-held poses of Yin Yoga. And better yet (in my opinion) you'll learn how to guide others into that healing place as well.
Any questions on how to sign up today, check out the form and contacts found in the link in my bio!!!!
Blessings to you all ๐๐ผ See you on the mat ๐ง๐ผโโ๏ธ๐งโโ๏ธ

One day at a time.
That has become the mantra of this big transition. I used to believe I was pretty good at transitions, but recently I've been humbled by the shear magnitude of transitions occurring simultaneously in our lives. It's been tough. New state, new city, new baby, new jobs, new roles, new work/ life balance, new house, new needs, new community. We do it all for the highest good of our little one.
I see now how the priority of self-care can easily take a back seat when life is this full. I have to keep giving myself the benefit of the doubt... I've never done this before, I'm only human, this too shall change. I strive to give myself grace, to keep learning, keep improving, and arrive at balance in new ways that makes sense for our new life ๐ค๐ผ
As I write, I orchestrate. And so it is ๐๐ผ

This picture was taken 5 years ago as I began a dedicated yin practice. I can barely recognize this guy. So much has changed, so much has shifted... and that's a beautiful thing.
In this special final Yin practice, I'll attempt to distill all the major lessons the Pacific Northwest has bestowed on me during my tenure here. This will be my way of closing a chapter and being grateful for what has been. Hope you can join me!!! ๐ฅฒโ๐ผ๐๐ผ

Beloved Oregon community, this is a love letter to you ๐
I've lived in 5 different cities in my adult life, and no other place has been as inspiring, as loving, and as magical as Portland and the Pacific Northwest! Alas, my family and I must say a heartfelt goodbye to this place we love so much ๐๐๐งญ
โญ On June 5th, we drive off to begin a new job and a new life in Austin, TX โญ
After all... Everything that has a beginning, has an ending. Make your peace with that and all will be well ๐
Portland is where I grew as a yoga teacher, a leader, and as a person. This is where I married . This is where our son was born, .firstofhisname. This is where we hiked, camped, explored. This has been our safe place for so long that it's difficult to even write this post ๐ฅฒ
Thank you to everyone who made this time here so special whether I knew you for days, for months, or for years ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ You've all been my teachers, my mentors, my inspirations, my muses. For that and so much more, you have my eternal gratitude!
My family has such an attachment to this place that I forsee us coming to visit as much as we can (and maybe even guest teaching at a few studios ๐
). I'll end this post the same way I've ended all other chapters in my life, with a quote by my favorite author Paulo Coelho...
๐ฅ "I come in Strength and in Fire, and when I leave no one will be the same. I bring true love." ๐ฅ
Love you all ๐ Always remember the brilliance of your own being ๐ @ The Great Pacific Northwest

Happiest birthday to the most inspiring woman, mother, and life partner ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ
Watching you blossom into new roles with our son has been one of the greatest pleasure of my life, and it gives me even more respect for the strong, caring, brilliant woman you are ๐
We said this from the beginning... each other as guru ๐ And it couldn't be more true today. , you inspire me to step deeper into my truth and watching you bring your light into the world encourages me to shine mine. So grateful to be on this journey together with you!!!
Happy life anniversary, my Love! ๐๐ท

Thank you to everyone who has wished us well & everyone who has supported us in so many ways! Abby and I read and listen to all your messages together and we've been overwhelmed by all the lovely sentiments, prayers, and hopes you all continue to send our way. We so appreciate it ๐๐ผ

Join me this Sunday, 2 - 3:30 PM, for a special autumn yin workshop!
Link in my bio - virtual and in-person sign ups available ๐๐According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, this season is associated with the Lungs & Large Intestine meridians, two essential organs responsible for taking in only what's necessary and releasing everything that's unnecessary โฏ๏ธ So the sequence we'll go through is designed to encourage taking in nourishment and releasing waste at all levels of our being (physical, mental, emotional, & energetic).
Come with curiosity and a willingness to look inward ๐๐ผ
