NOVA SAYS..
I teach because i love it, and i that is what i want others to feel too. You will never continue to do something just because you should, you will do things for la little while for duty or out of habit but you will never continue it unless you love it. So i try make it as much fun as i can.
I think there is a lot wasted energy in yoga, trying to make things look a certain way externally, when what really needs to happen is on the inside. So I offer a space to drop away from the judgements and grasping mind, and just play like a kid again, fully embodying the moment, with playfulness and pure joy.
The Power of Discomfort
Do you ever get yin and restorative yoga confused? I’ve been having a lot of conversations with practitioners recently who are trying yin for the first time about the difference. Yin is finding an edge and sitting there, maybe with a little discomfort. There is no pain, no pushing but rather sitting at that edge….
Don’t Make Assumptions
“It is wiser to find out than to suppose.” -Mark Twain The third sequence based on The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. This week’s topic and the 3rd Agreement: Don’t make assumptions.

Yin Yoga | Four Agreements: Don’t take anything personally
I wanted to continue in The Four Agreements series with a yin sequence themed for the second agreement… Don’t take anything personally. This one is a lost art in our society. With the age of technology, we have become quick to assume, to think, and to act. We are offended by views and behaviors that…
Not Doing – A Way of Doing -Wu Wei
The concept of wu wei enters most of the yoga classes I teach. When I guide my yoga students into a pose, I often ask them to make an “effortless effort.” This has an amazing effect. My students lower their shoulders, their faces relax — and miraculously — the pose become easier to rest in….

Like a Meteor
Like a meteor hurtling toward the Earth, each of us hurtles through the years being worn of all that doesn’t matter. Like a meteor that shines brighter the more it casts off, each soul shines brighter as the body that carries it is slowly cast off over a lifetime. This is the same process our…
Ratatouille like the Rats make!
Ratatouille, Occitan: ratatolha, is a French Provençal dish of stewed vegetables which originated in Nice, and is sometimes referred to as ratatouille niçoise. Wikipedia I have copied the pixar film version which is a layered baked version which is more photogenic then the stew and is considerably less work and you will get way more…
