Meant to Pause Yoga

New landing page for my upcoming yoga workshop “Reframing Your Menopause Journey”.

You’ll find all the details on my website. Link in bio!

Bring your friends, sister, partners!

All experiences of this wild transformation are welcome, wherever you are on your journey.

If you can only attend one, cool! But if you can attend all 3, then be prepared to make some friends too!

A few more thoughts about my new career path!

I did a thing!

So proud to announce I am now a certified genderq***r menopause provider.

As a white affluent but cis q***r woman, I represent a part of the mainstream narrative that puts the black and brown global majority of women as well as all gender q***r people at the margins of menopause care.

As yoga has shaped so much of who I am today, my commitment to truth seeking and telling brought me right to ***r.menopause

During the course, I met and collaborated with some beautiful human beings who are equally emboldened to change access to care, the narrative, the language, and mainstream understanding of the menopause experience for genderq***r people. They and their work continue to fill me with joy and hope for a more inclusive future for people with ovarian systems!

My work continues as I prepare to launch my new and improved menopause yoga & menopause education series in September ! Stay tuned!

Happy PRIDE month ya’ll!

Don’t Hesitate - Mary Oliver

If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy,
don’t hesitate. Give in to it. There are plenty
of lives and whole towns destroyed or about
to be. We are not wise, and not very often
kind. And much can never be redeemed.
Still, life has some possibility left. Perhaps this
is its way of fighting back, that sometimes
something happens better than all the riches
or power in the world. It could be anything,
but very likely you notice it in the instant
when love begins. Anyway, that’s often the
vase. Anyway, whatever it is, don’t be afraid
of it’s plenty. Joy is not made to be a crumb.

I feel so lucky to live in the PNW and have access to this glorious nature. I’ll always feel at home near the sea. You can’t take the 🇮🇪 out of this girl!

What is bringing you moments of joy these days - big or small?

Joy might feel a little hard to get at these days with changing hormones (and the end of the world as we know it) but it’s still there - in the splash of sea mist, the tickle of your wind blown hair across your face, the smile of a stranger, or a lovely spring break trip with your family.

I’m teaching a free Hatha yoga class on Friday May 1 at 6:30pm.

We will move with all the joy and renewal of the season!
