Magic Mamas

Reminder that yoga and meditation are NOT about being perfect, enlightened, flexible, pretty or any of the other assumptions/standards! "Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self." -The Bhagavad Gita

Have been reflecting on the idea of "igniting your flame" being an action both full of PASSION and PEACE. As female entrepreneurs, there is a lot, and I mean A LOT to do. Sometimes it seems constantly; accounting, networking, editing, consultations, appointments, bookings, nourishing social media and marketing platforms, etc. This is where your FIRE or passion come out; your creative juices stir and ideas ignite. We step back from our work and see. This is the roaring fire th...at I could dance around all night! But then we must always move closer, move inward to nurture the small, steady, peaceful flame within. We must take the time to nourish our minds, bodies, spirits, relationships, hobbies, families, gardens, etc. THIS flame is the flame that all passion is birthed from. THIS flame is the flame that depends on your self care, routines and wellbeing to stay lit, glowing, constant and grounding. We step closer and see. This is the fire that keeps me going...

Happy Black History Month Magic Mamas. This month is a time for physical, mental, emotional and spiritual effort and action; prayer, service, recognition and consideration; a time to truly bring Yoga off the mat. In celebration of black bodies, voices and dreams - all our playlists for Sunday morning Yoga For All will be comprised of all black artists from Otis Redding to Erykah Badu, from Chance the Rapper to Aretha Franklin, from Alica Keys to Nas, from Sam Cooke to Jamill...a Woods, and on and on! Additionally I will be linking students to 3 Philadelphia based black owned business per class and all personal profit made from Yoga For All classes will be donated to @blackmamasmatter .

Moon gazing AND a lovely sunrise over the city? This is what I live for.

How do we truly create safe spaces? It all starts with intention. The intention to listen, attune and provide balance to your client. Whether it be on the massage table, in the hospital or in your home - taking the steps 'internally' to create peace are vital before we take the external steps. Peace, happy Friday and follow the link in my bio to schedule a massage w yours truly!

The female body is an extension of mother nature The divinity stored inside the petals of flowers, the roots of trees, the nourishment of rain and wind lie within the miraculous anatomy of a birthing body. What a joy it is to watch mamas grow and transform from the inside out, as the life inside them prepares to enter the world. Happy Wednesday!
