Aloha, Friend! We are earthen vessels moved by the light. At times, we might have more flux than flow, and fortunately, Yoga moves us away from the realm of struggle in the midst of flux, and into the flow state, the realms of comfort, empowerment, and grace. How do we stay aligned with our true power, which is always inside of us and always available? If we have nourished inner spaces of protection, energy healing,

Be happy. Be healthy. Be hopeful. “One legend says that after struggling to understand the needs of so many whose cries she heard, Quan Yin’s head split into eleven pieces.

Aloha Friends! While there are thousands of reasons and ways to illuminate your Soul, I want to share with you 3 Keys to Yoga illumination: Feeling. Fascia. And Flow. How we move, breathe, express, and think depends on the state of trillions of cells in our body. Cells are broadcasting and receiving stations that thrive when nourished and weaken when depleted.
