I have a restless spirit. Since I can remember I’ve always been searching. For what? I’m not quite sure. But this nudge in my deepest places has always sent me looking. Most of the time, I’m thankful that I’m open to finding new things, that I never settle, that I have the stir that invites me to dig deeper. But sometimes, it makes life hard. Sometimes, it causes me to not appreciate where I am because I’m too busy looking for something else. But yoga- oh yoga! You have taught me to channel my tingles and nudges and antsy insides to find what I’m looking for right where I am. Yoga you have made me tune in instead of out. You have taught me to pay attention so I can see what is really here, right now- right where I am. So whenever I’m struggling or my tingles get my nerves twisting up because I’m ready for the next thing- I just look for my mat. My second home, the place I never knew I was looking for but when I find it- it all melts away. The place that teaches me the nudges are calling me to look where I’ve already been, where I already know- MY HEART. #yogalife #findyourthing #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogalove #yogaeveryday #yogaeverydamnday #yogateacher #yogaeverywhere #yogagirl #yogachallenge #yogajourney #yogalifestyle #instayoga #yogadaily #yogaaddict #yogisofinstagram #inspirationalwords #inspirationalquotes #inspirationalthoughts #inspirationoftheday #yogalover❤️ #yogaheart #beextrayoga #findyourself #loveandlight #followyourheart #followyourbliss

Dear God, Help me to show good will to all people, Dear God, Help me to show good will to all people, even when it's hard. Even when, I don't agree with them. Help me to always seek the good in life. To give what I can, to serve others however I can, and to love as big as I can. May I always, always, always be dedicated to seeking connection with You.

I went for a quick grocery run for supper tonight. I went for a quick grocery run for supper tonight. I looked forward to just stepping out of the house for a few minutes. I blew through the store quickly but found myself in one of THOSE lines. The ones that seem to take forever. The ones that have multiple orders and balloons to get and lots and lots of stuff. I wanted so badly to be out and about and then found myself completely frustrated in about 20 minutes flat. Then, it got worse. It started raining. As I ran through the rain with my bags and hopped into my car with my mask poking me in the eye I was so annoyed. I could feel the anger bubbling up, maybe at the people in front of me in line or at the store or at the whole situation general. I immediately did what I have learned to do. I stopped. I breathed. I turned off my wipers. I closed my eyes and tuned into the sound of the rain on my windshield. I breathed in deep all the way to the belly. I returned my attention to the rain. Only the rain. When my thoughts traveled away, I brought myself back to taps on the glass. Only the rain. Only the rain. Only the rain. Two minutes later, I was OK. Two minutes later, I found empathy for the worker doing their best working in these conditions. Two minutes later, I understood that the people in front of me possibly had multiple orders because they were shopping for those that are unable to leave their house. Two minutes later, I find peace in the few minutes I have had alone in a week. Just two minutes of tuning in and I find my heart again. I share this simple story with you because it works. Because I know and believe that we were created to be people that see each other as connected, not separate. That the emotions are only of the body and not of the spirit. That being connected to our true selves doesn’t have to be this huge ritualistic process, but can happen in your car, in a parking lot, with wet hair. I hope next time you find yourself frustrated you can simply listen in, breathe deeply, and find your heart. #yogalifestyle #breatheinbreatheout #yogaoffthemat #yogalovelove #yogalifetips #yogalife #yogaanywhere

When I sit in quiet with myself I can become anxio When I sit in quiet with myself I can become anxious, tired, angry, and frustrated. My legs fall asleep, my back doesn’t want to sit straight, and my body hates the floor. My mind wanders, my to-do lists grow, and even worse – my judgy-side kicks in. I judge the person leading it, I judge the room, I judge the length, and most importantly I judge myself. But then do you know what is next? Freedom. Read more in on my website.

What is it about motherhood that makes time move s What is it about motherhood that makes time move so fast? It’s like the second they place the baby in your arms someone hits the fast forward button and off you go. Zooming, running, doing, going; and all of it- ALL OF IT- each and every day just accelerates. Faster and faster and faster. There’s never enough time. There’s never enough of you to do all the things, and yet here you are like a cartoon character- a blur in the frame- hustling as fast as you can all day long. You want to look up. You want to breathe. You want to just slow the heck down. But it feels like you can’t. It feels like the second you press down on the brake pedal it will all fall from under you. It’s exhausting. It’s messy. It’s scary. The more quickly it goes, the more worried I become. Did I savor it? Was I there enough for that moment? Did they see me? Is it already almost over? I just want to end the day knowing that I took a breath. I want to end each day feeling like I accomplished less and lived more. I want to end the day not in fast forward, but feeling like I can hit the pause button a few times. Reflecting. Experiencing. Remembering. I can’t help but think about how swiftly life moves. I know I must recognize that only I have the power to press pause in the story of my life. Only I can take that deep breath in and be still. Only I can change my mode. What is it about motherhood that makes time move so fast? I want to stop living so darn quickly, and start living right now, in this moment- present and joyful. I want to experience this thing we call motherhood knowing I lived it fully, and not just raced through it all for the sake of getting it all done. #yogamom #yogalife #yogainspiration #yogajourney #yogaeveryday #yogagirl #yogateacher #yogalove #yogini #yoga4growth #yogadaily #momblog #momlife #momblogger #motherhood #momsofinstagram #motherhoodunplugged #mommylife #yogamommy #yogalove #beextrayoga
Goddess Pose. A pose that works the entire body, h Goddess Pose. A pose that works the entire body, has amazing benefits, and it only needs 2 minutes of your time. I love, love, love this poses for many reasons, but especially for its benefits for women. I interpret the word goddess here to mean womanly power. That means this pose is about the attributes of womanhood and what makes women special: deep empathy, passion, courage, adaptability, creativity, faith, sensitivity, tolerance, loving, strength just to name a few..

A little yoga in the middle of our hike through Oa A little yoga in the middle of our hike through Oak Creek Canyon today. It was stunning. Connecting with nature is food for the spirit. To experience a new landscape opened my heart. I also got to wear my new @sveltebelle yoga pants. They were perfect for hiking and I felt so comfortable moving in them and they are really cute! Svelte Belle is giving all my followers 20 percent off their order if you want to give them a try!

“The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had “The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears” This is a Native American proverb I learned today during my time around the Grand Canyon. As I sat on the ledge of the cliff peering across the eight mile divide of the canyon I was reminded of where I am in my life today and the places I have been before. During my time of tears, struggling with grief and anxiety, I felt miles away from this person I am today. The divide in my heart felt like it would break me. I wasn’t sure I could ever get across to the other side. And yet, here I am. Healthy, happy, at peace. I am only able recognize how incredible life is now, because I once lived on the other side of that canyon. I only see the beauty of life now so vividly because I know how hard it was to make the decision to cross the divide and work towards getting to the other side. My soul experiences the rainbows because I lived in the tears for a time. Today I sat on the edge of the divide, thousands of feet in the sky, soaring with the ravens knowing that I am here because I was once so far down below. I want you to know this: If you are in the midst of hard time, you can climb your way back up. The hike may be long and tough, but you can make it. And remember that it is only through these tears that your soul will recognize your rainbow when you reach the mountain top. #yogainspiration #yogalover #yogalife #yogapractice #yogagirl #yogaeverywhere #yogalove #yogadaily #spiritguides #yogaeveryday #igyoga #yogajourney #yogini #yogagram #instayoga #yogisofinstagram #practiceyogachangeyourworld #yogainstructor #yogaforlife #wisdom #nativeamericanproverb #nativeamericanproverbs #yogalifestyle #yogalife #yogamom #yogamommy #momblogger #momblog #beextrayoga
