New Session & Free 7 Day Move & Meditate Challenge
/Hello!
How are you doing? I hope you are enjoying the warmer weather!
I wanted to share a beautiful reading with you (see below). My mom told me about it and it definitely holds a lot of power. It is from the book Steering by Starlight by Martha Beck.
Having lost my family unit in my late teens due to mental illness of a family member, there is so much power and emotion for me in the line: "Her family is the family of a broken elephant. But they are strong in the broken places."
Our strength can come from experiencing struggles.
And in those times it is so important to have support around us. Sometimes the support from others gives us the strength we need to keep going.
It definitely did for Elvis the elephant.
Rumi's quote is also a great reminder of the strength that we develop from struggle:
"The wound is the place where the light enters you."
Sending love & light to all of you xo

7 Day Rise & Shine Move & Meditate Challenge
Tuesday February 1 to Monday February 7 2022
7-7:15am
Members: Free (I will send you the $25 discount code)
Regular Price: $25
Grab your morning coffee or tea and let's rise and shine...together!
Start your day off revitalized by connecting with others and taking some time for yourself. If you are feeling alone or have low energy join us for some connection and support. This can make a huge difference in your day!
Join me for 7 live morning meditation sessions in a row! Each morning has a different theme as we follow the elements of nature & energy centres of the body.
We will use some gentle movements to wake the body up (all can be done seated or lying down). These, along with the meditation and optional essential oil, will be specific to each element and corresponding energy centre of the body.
I look forward to rising, shining & connecting with you!
Please note that all of the meditations will be recorded and will be accessible for free for wellness members. They will also be offered as a challenge package to purchase after the challenge.
And after the challenge, we will be doing a draw for 3 smudge and crystal bundles from Carmon from Pure Awareness Yoga & Retreats!

Please join us at least 5 minutes before class to get settled! To enhance the experience of your sound it is good to have headphones/earbuds (but not necessary).
Yoga Nidra is a guided meditation that can help activate the relaxation response in your body and improve the functioning of your nervous system. It can also help decrease anxiety, improve your mood, help manage immune function, blood pressure, cortisol levels and induce restful sleep. After your nidra I will be playing some crystal singing bowls to take you deeper into relaxation.
You can do this class in bed or on a thick mat or blanket. You also need a blanket, eye cover and a bolster or pillow under your knees. If you have a weighted blanket that would also work well.
The soundbath portion is not to be done if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker, cochlear implants/hearing aids, have epilepsy or have implants or plates/pins in the body. If you have any questions, please let me know.
The Science Behind Sound Healing
Quantum physics tells us that every cell in our body is made up of vibrating matter joined together by magnetic forces. Every cell has its own natural vibrating frequency. When that frequency becomes disrupted or imbalanced by factors such as emotional (stress, anxiety, fear, depression, etc.), hormonal or chemical changes in the body, your frequency starts to lower.
There has been research done that shows that the cells in the body actually have a lower frequency of vibration when there is illness or disease present.
Since our bodies respond not just to internal factors but also external factors, we can use sound to bring our cells back to "vibrational" balance. Certain sounds or vibrations can quickly locate the discordant frequencies in the body and restore the body back to its natural state of harmony.
Sound also helps us to shift our brainwaves to a more desired state to allow deep meditative states where healing or expanded consciousness can occur. Through what is known as entrainment, when specific healing sounds are played, our brains start to synchronize with that frequency or rhythm. Taking us from beta (normal consciousness) to alpha (relaxed, meditative), then possibly to theta (deep meditation) and delta (sleep). These deeper states of consciousness allow our body to restore and rejuvenate itself, activating de-stressing responses in our body.
