Hallow Bone/ Bamboo Stick/ Clay Vessel In the Indigenous and shamanic traditions, the “hollow bone” means becoming empty of the ego, control, roles we play, titles we’ve earned, and handing yourself over to be a vessel for love or divinity to work through. I’ve heard the term used mostly by people who practice shamanism but didn’t have a direct relationship with this feeling yet. Recently, when I asked my dad about his spirituality, he told me he is nobody. This sounded troub

Good Morning Soul Family, First HAPPY Mother's Day to all creators of life. It's truly a miracle that I get to be a woman and that I brought two souls here to earth. What a beautiful gift.

5 Ways to Heal Yourself and to Stay in Love 1. Connection is Medicine: The longest -running study from Harvard Medical School found one clear truth: The #1 predictor of long-term health and happiness isn’t diet, exercise, money, it’s relationships. Sardinians are recognized as one of the places with unusually high numbers of people living to 100 as sited by the Blue Zones foundations. Their tricks: The eat together, walk together, work together and stay close to their

I am not a therapist, I am not a doctor but I am someone moving through heavy emotions that call me to face my patterns and make a shift. I am declaring through some new work I have invested myself in that I am a powerful, connected and loving woman. I am willing to be uncomfortable so that I can grow in a more loving way. When I am uncomfortable, I am brave and present to sit in the discomfort and go deeper. I don't have to prove that I understand everything immediately.

Don't water down your highest potential. Take the opportunity to be part of the medicine of the world. To see beauty where others don't. After each yoga class we express the word "Namaste" Namaste is a Sanskrit phrase derived from namah (bow, reverence) and s te (to you), literally translating to "I bow to you" or "salutation to you" . Westeners translate it simply to the light in me bows to the light in you, which is in itself still beautiful. Divinity within all: Sadhg

Conch in hand, listening to the sacred sound of existence, AUM, Amen. Water of life flowing in the background, white sand at my feet, wind spiraling around, hummingbirds flying around me. It's really a sweet moment. Thanks Maggie for the picture. Since I was gifted this beautiful shell walking the Unity Church Labyrinth last week, I have realized how deep beautiful this sacred spiral really is. The spiral represents another threshold of learning, you enter into expansio

Dear friends and community - I NEED YOUR HELP TO SAVE LO'S BEACH YOGA - PLEASE read in the entirety. The past week has brought a whirlwind of emotion and frustration, and I want to share openly with you what is happening and how I am responding to it. My initial reaction was anger, then meeting restriction with equal resistance. But as intense as that response was, I knew it wasn’t aligned with how I want to live, lead, or practice. It also isn’t what I’ve been training m

We hope you will join us in this one of a kind experience. 2/22. 11am-2:30pm

What I Thought Was Leadership Training Became a Homecoming Last week, I took a three-day course called Heartcore Leadership. Like anyone would assume, I signed up thinking it would be about leadership. You know, communication skills. Organization. Maybe some corporate-style tools I could apply to my work and daily life. That’s not what I got. What I got was something far more raw. This wasn’t about leading others. It was about learning how to lead myself. It was about letting

We wait for clarity. We wait for confidence. We wait for the moment when everything lines up and feels safe. And in the meantime, we call it patience when it’s really procrastination dressed in better language. I’ve learned this the hard way. Inspiration rarely arrives with fireworks. More often, it shows up as a quiet nudge, an idea you can’t shake, a thought that keeps returning, a pull toward something that doesn’t yet make sense. The problem isn’t that we don’t recognize

Dharma Talk What does it mean to become whole and in harmony? Is it to feel open, spacious, to move with purpose? People and experiences come into our lives for reasons, a divine reason even. Symbolic currents are a part of my dialogue with my spiritual side. They are a way I hope to remember what truly matters. At work this past week, I found a silver ring every day. When I found the second one, I thought it was the same ring reappearing in different rooms, but no, I colle

Housekeeping: Please set up as you arrive on the beach closer to the Turtle Club. We can't set up in front of the condominium directly and block their enterance path to the beach. We can only share this beach space for the morning as long as we stick to the rules. If you do set up to close to the entrance of the condo you will be asked to move more north on the beach. Kindly help us out! Thanks.

As you rest here and take a minute to think about the upcoming week. This week invites more doing, showing up, more hurrying. This past week on the beach, we walked up for class and found this heart made of roses exactly where we practice yoga. Exactly where we had our Full Moon Cerermony with roses last week. Syncronicity, God wink, vortex, what ever you want to call it, but it's so magical and beautiful. Whom ever got engaged congratulations and thank you for sharing you

We often feel the pressure to appear strong, to hold ourselves together even when everything inside feels like it’s breaking. This strength is not just a mental or emotional state, it’s something we physically carry, often in the tightness of our abdomen. In yoga and many healing traditions, the belly is seen as the place where unspoken emotions go to hide. When we suppress feelings like grief, resentment, sadness, or fear, our bodies respond in ways that can affect our healt

Project Timeline Hurray our north side of the beach is done and wider than I've ever seen! December 1st crews will resume work moving towards the Pelican Bay phase. During this time the access on the north end of Vanderbilt Beach will be open, restrooms are open as in the parking garage. Make sure to check your beach sticker expiration date! The project should be 100% complete by mid January 2026 as it's new time-line. Yoga We are in the season of traveling and gathering.

Understanding Love and its placement is a profound idea that goes beyond simple emotion; it involves a conscious decision about where we direct our focus and energy. This deliberate approach to love can shape our experiences and relationships, leading us to deeper connections and understanding. Hate shows up when we refuse to see within. If a person cannot sit with their own shadow, they unconsciously hand it to someone else. The moment they cast themselves as pure, or righ
