Weaving a Practice

40 Days of Weaving a Practice

A few weeks ago, I spent some time with a life coach – who is also a friend and someone that I admire greatly for her energy and vitality! We talked about Quiet Mind, my sense of overwhelm, my Qigong studies, my teaching, and where I felt called to grow next. It wasn’t a strategy […]

Winter Practices

A Collection of Seasonal Wisdom There are certain practices that I hold close and return often … quiet anchors that help me move through all the seasons with more presence, steadiness, and care. Today, over on Instagram, I shared 12 of my favourite Winter Practices. But, this collection didn’t begin as a list. It truly […]
