Long before the world told you who to be:
what you should wear
how much you should weigh
what you should do with your life
you knew, without question,
that you were enough;
That you were here for a reason
and that reason felt holy.
But, somehow, life happened:
you followed your prescribed path, possibly had kids, and often find yourself on the hamster wheel of your to-do list, racing to keep up.
But deep down you know that there is so much more to who you really are.

20 years ago, amidst the debilitating patterns of addiction and depression, I, too, was struggling to find a spiritual home in this world.
No matter where I went or who I was with
I never felt like I was enough.
I spent years on the hamster wheel of unworthiness,
chasing my worth in a variety of unhealthy ways,
and shape shifting myself in order to fit into boxes that didn't feel right for me.

That's when, by the Grace of God, I stumbled into a yoga therapy class.
Here, the teacher called me things like Whole Worthy Sacred Supported Enough |
|
On the mat, I experienced an embodied knowing of my inherent worth,
my Divine Nature,
and was FINALLY able to release the guilt and shame that was keeping me stuck.
I am amazed by how,
as I became more authentically myself,
my addictive behaviors eased,
my depression began to clear, and
my emotions loosened their grip on me.
And while life never became less messy, I simply learned how to be in the mess of it with the courage and confidence to be who God made me.

From then on, I was hooked; I dedicated my life to teaching other women what I had learned through the path of yoga mostly their inherent worthiness and how to feel comfortable in their own skin. This work is a ministry through which I get to help women get off the hamster wheel of unworthiness, |
discover their spiritual nature,
befriend their bodies,
understand their emotions,
cultivate curiosity and compassion,
and speak up for themselves.
