YINspired
This is a spin on a Yin practice in which we settle in to a pose gradually with mindful movement, pulsation or body vinyasa before enjoying the stillness of a static hold.

Drop In
Dropping in is about becoming present and bearing witness to yourself in the moment. Where your attention is, your mood, the sensations happening right now in your body.
It’s often harder than it sounds. Some of us need to clear out a little physical and mental clutter first and this practice wi...

Dark Side of the Moon
One of the lunar phases is called the New Moon, when the sun and the moon are on the same side of the Earth, giving the perspective that the Dark Side of The Moon is facing us, or that the moon has turned inward, perhaps to regroup and reboot so she can shine again.
We’d do well to allow ourselv...

Release
Wouldn’t it be nice if when we decided to RELEASE something that was troubling us that it simply disappeared?!
But we all know that’s rarely the case.
What we CAN do though is choose to RELEASE the CHARGE surrounding whatever it is, to clear the emotional path a bit for resolution or forbearanc...

Steady & Strong
Did you know bison walk INTO a storm, unlike other animals like cattle? They instinctively know the fastest way out of a storm is to go directly through it rather than to drift with the winds of the storm.
Walking into challenges, both those we choose and those we don’t, requires steadiness and ...

Nectar
Nectar is a rich and sweet liquid produced in the depths of a flower. As such, I’ve always associated it with essence and the sweetness of our life experiences – like we savor the nectar of our experiences so we don’t miss them.
Today’s practice is nectarian in that it is slow flow leading to re...

Got Your Back
Fun fact: The muscles of your BACK body propel you forward. So physically, it makes sense to keep your posterior chain of muscles as strong as they are flexible.
Metaphorically speaking, what is BEHIND you can propel you forward in life when you draw strength from the wisdom you earned from your...

Activate

Mornin' Starshine

Mindful Mobility
Yoga practitioners focus a lot on flexibility, which is a muscle's ability to passively lengthen. This practice, however, focuses on MOBILITY, which is the ability of a joint to move actively through a range of motion and that movement is enabled by muscles that are both strong AND flexible.
