I was raised Catholic. I went through all the sacraments with great pride, I attended Catholic school from Kindergarten through college, I recall how often my mom would tell me she thought I would grow up to be a nun. I remember being an anxious child and turning to prayer to bring me through some things I wouldn’t have been able to get through on my own. Although I don’t attend mass every Sunday anymore, I try to connect with God, Source, energy, him/her, Divine essence, wh...atever it is you may refer to IT as. This morning I sat for meditation and listened to @sarahfinds beautifully articulate how to get back to that pure consciousness within. She spoke about letting go of the layers of conditioning we have put on ourselves and others have placed upon us. She gave me permission to let it go. I gave myself the permission to let go. That center, what we so often refer to in a yoga practice, is God. The God that dwells within, the pure, unadulterated essence that we were all born with. The essence that is shrouded by beliefs that try to pull you away from your light. Give yourself permission to lay all of that down and come back to your true self.

Happy Veterans Day to all the men and women who served our country. I come from a long line of veterans and my partner is not only a veteran but reaches hundred of veterans a day through @balancedveterans Over the past year, I have seen a beautiful community; a brotherhood and sisterhood of triumph, compassion, honesty, heartache, and solitude. Humans are complex, veterans are more so. Their strength lies in those complexities. They are adaptable, resilient, determined.... They served along side of men and women from every race, religion and background to fight for a common cause that was much bigger than their individual selves.

Oh and this impromptu kids yoga class...

What a wonderful weekend I had at the @pacannabisfest representing @balancedveterans! I realized that relating and connecting to others is the sweet nectar of life. For the first time in a while, I felt what it was like to have a tribe, a group of unique individuals with their own unique gifts, that share a united vision and purpose. Thank you @armychica12 @niicentoasty @officialcurtisshirk @youramishginger We heard so many inspiring, heartbreaking, hopeful and courage...ous stories. Even though I am not a veteran, I come from a long line of veterans. There were moments it was difficult to relate to war heroes but then I looked to the left or right of them and saw their partner or child and could relate to that. . We all have struggled or know someone struggling with mental health. Compassion is key Everyone is made in God’s image. I want to thank @herb_and_soul and @greenfieldblau for leading us in your meditations. What you offered was a sense of reprieve among the commotion. A place for people to drop in and feel safe in chaos. You raised the vibration of the whole festival by bringing your voice and gifts to us. Thank you @pickyourpoisonpaintparties for being an incredible human being and talented artist. Another highlight was that my dad, @jamesdesalvophotography, showed up to support. A veteran, a friend, I will forever be daddy’s little girl. And he met Ron’s family for the first time Last but not least, my beloved @ronmillward. It was such an honor to be by your side and help your vision come alive. Seeing you in your element made me fall in love with you even more.

Stop! And take 3 deep breaths! We are all victims to the incessant and mindless scroll. After seeing Social Dilemma and Cuties on Netflix, it is apparent what social media has done for our mental health and that of our youth. As Millennials, we were the last incoming generation that saw what life was like before social media and the World Wide Web. We are the generation that witnessed the rise of Xanga, MySpace and AIM instant messenger and we rode the next wave of... apps and platforms that consume our lives. Our generation is the one that created Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Tik Tok. There is beauty in the connection and opportunity all of these platforms have created but with greater reach comes greater responsibility. It is our generation’s responsibility to bridge the gap of the old world with the new. To stop the scroll to appreciate what is in front of you and not what is curated for you see. So please, not for me or anyone else but yourself, remember that all your problems aren’t answered through your Google search engine. Use your imagination, ask a human for directions, stop and take a few deep breaths and recall the magic that comes from appreciating the moment.

May we embrace the entire world a little more dearly through the expansiveness of our imaginations One reason I love to work with children is because they unearth the playful, imaginative parts of us that we have buried over years of adulting.

Hi friends! Here is a sneak peek at a sequence we will be doing in our Family Yoga class next Thursday! . - start in a crouching position. Count down from five and then blast off! Landing on the moon. . - with feet together and arms overhead, press palms together. Slide your hands over one way and the other. Remember that even if you shoot for the moon and miss, you’ll land among the stars. . - with feet and arms wide, twin...kle your fingers. How many points does a star have? Can you find those same 5 points on your body in this pose? . - or triangle pose. Tip over and reach one of your hands all the way down to your foot. Turn your head up as if you’re looking at the night sky! . - or half moon pose. Move like you are getting into Fallen Star and as you start to tip over, try lifting your back leg up and off the ground. Can you even touch your front hand to the ground to help with balance? . - or child’s pose. After floating in outer space, step your feet together and join your hands over your head. Imagine like you are collecting all of the magic in the stardust and you are bringing it back home with you. Land in child’s pose with your head on the ground, your bottom on your heels and the light of the galaxy in your heart I hope to see you all next week with your Little Warriors for an evening of fun for the whole family.

This breath, also know as Sitali Pranayama, is a technique that cools down the body. Air Conditioning Breath can help when you feel overheated while playing outside. It’s also a great way to let off some steam when you are feeling angry, upset or hot headed. #yoga #yogaforkids #kidsyoga #namaste #kidsyogateacher #childrensyogateacher #yoga4kids #yogaforfamilies #playfulyoga #familytime #familyfitness #stretch #balance #play #mindfulness #mindfulmoments #mindfulkids #playbasedlearning #mindfulschools #toddlersofinstagram #toddleryoga #staypositive #yogaforeverybody #littleyogis #littlewarriors #littlewarriorsyoga #healthy #vegetarian #plantbasedliving #mentalhealth

Sometimes it’s hard to identify the way we feel especially in times when we are bombarded with a bunch of different emotions. Some of these feelings are ours, some may feel like the pain or emotions of other people. It is important for children, and adults, to be able to at least identify and sit with feelings whether good or bad, happy or sad. When I read, The Way I Feel, to younger kids, I have them dissect the pictures and see if they come up with the emotion the ill...ustration is portraying. It is also a way for adults to break down and explain difficult emotions to children in a digestible way. This book is a great way for children to build their emotional intelligence. You may be surprised how many feelings live inside you!

Bumble Bee Breath, also known as Bhramari Pranayama, releases tension in the head and neck while calming the mind. The vibration dissolves energy and heat stuck in the mind which may accumulate there when you feel angry, anxious or stressed. You can imagine the humming sound like a jackhammer that breaks up tricky emotions. It also helps with headaches.

It’s getting harder to stay motivated while in quarantine. There are some days where I feel exhausted from doing the easiest tasks, other times everything feels harmonious as I celebrate the little victories. Luckily, when Wednesday rolls around, any dark clouds roll away to remind me of the radiance of my passion and purpose. Having this platform to launch this kids program has given me something to look forward to every week. During that half hour, I feel alive and e...xuberant, with each smile a genuine expression of my presence in that moment. Please join me with your families!

I am completely blown away by the support I received from the first Little Warriors, virtual kids yoga class. There have been moments in my career as a yoga teacher where I wondered if I were on the right path, if this dream career would always be out of reach and where I questioned my impact on others. Just yesterday, I hosted an incredible online class of over 20 children! My heart was exploding with joy to see the faces of children I have taught for years, my famil...y members, long time friends and new acquaintances. To feel the support of a network of people that have been holding me up all these years is such a treasure especially during these times. After yesterday’s class, I was reminded what it feels like to share my gifts with the world and to be in the presence of people who truly see me and appreciate the gifts I offer. I know I am in alignment with my calling and I pray that I continue to walk that path back to my heart over and over again #kidyoga #kidsyoga #childrensyoga #familyyoga #familyfitness #familytime #quarantinegym #yoga #littlewarriors #stretch #peace #calm #passion #calling #yogateacher #kidsyogateacher See more

Balancing today with strength and softness. There are some moments where we are meant to be strong, for ourselves or for others. In these moments we rise to our fullest potential and meet that call with an open heart. There are times we are called to soften and surrender. To put down the weight of our past, to allow feelings to flood in and again open your vulnerable heart. Either way the path to healing is through an open heart. Choosing to live in that space even when the world is telling you to close, even when your past programming builds up walls, even when you’ve been so hurt and the last thing you want to do is feel. Feel anyway, that’s how you find the strength in the surrender. The balance of life.

Since I was a little girl, I was pegged as too dramatic, too sensitive, and told I needed to toughen up. I feel deeply, I always have, emotions flow freely sometimes erratically. When I can tap back into power of my physical body, I recall the strength I have to hold the fluctuation of emotion that ebbs and flows within me. Through the yoga of relating, I am learning what it means to hold space for myself as well as for others. It’s not easy or simply mapped out but with patience and compassion, I am able to welcome all feelings with more grace and open myself up to embracing my sensitivity as a gift.

Shoulder flossing is a great way to explore range of motion and mobility in the shoulder joint. If you don’t have a strap at home, you can use a towel, pillowcase or belt. Try to keep the movement even and avoid jerking the body. If you feel restricted in this movement, try separating your hands a little more. Breathe deeply into open space in your chest and feel tension drip away.

Don’t forget to wash your hands but also cleanse your mind regularly. We are taught good hygiene from a young age, especially at this time in our world, it is at the forefront of our concern. We are never taught tools to have good hygiene for the mind. How do we dump the thoughts that don’t serve us, or return to presence with our partners, or forgive ourselves for reliving old patterns? Practice, practice, practice. Come practice with me tonight from 7:30-8:30 FUNdamental Flow @yogabrain_eastfalls

In my relentless quest to find work as flow, I find myself spread thin trying to fulfill all avenues of my heart. Constantly rearranging the puzzle pieces of my schedule and life, I am feeling out of balance. How did I get to this place again, lacking focus and peace of mind? The one thing I have found helpful is asking, Does this align with my highest goals and morals? It’s a way in which I am constantly reprioritizing and refining what it is I want for myself. Right now I am looking for people and experiences that enhance my life in some way. Someone once told me that life is tough and it just makes sense to be around people that make it feel a little bit easier. Thanks to all the people that bring sunshine into my life

Happy 2020 everyone! This year my goal is to balance the masculine (Alpha) and feminine (Omega) energies within me. To play around with polarity when relating to people (alpha/omega) and to enjoy the dynamic of resonance (alpha/alpha or omega/omega) when relating to others. Dance, to me, embodies the Omega essence, fluid, sensual, emotional, unfiltered. While seated meditation represents the masculine in me, stable, grounding, direct, intentional. As a Libra, I am all about... creating harmony and balance internally and in my surroundings. Cheers to getting better at mastering these skills this year! How do you find balance in your life?

There are only a few spots left! Come and join me for a four-week series with your little one. Starting this Sunday!
