Monkey Bear Yoga Breath, Feel, Be. Monkey Bear Yoga is bringing yoga to schools and the community we live in. The practice of yoga is beneficial to kids, caretakers and teachers.

It is often that these individuals do not have time or the resources to visit a yoga studio. Monkey Bear Yoga brings the yoga practice into the spaces we share in our community. Yoga fosters the whole child. We live in a high speed, fast paced environment that can be taxing to our spirit and sense of self. Children experience stress and anxiety just as adults do. Through movement, breathing techni

ques and imaginative play children can begin to explore their authentic self. Caretakers and Teachers benefit by practicing yoga with children as well. Practicing yoga together creates a unique space where both the child and adult can share each other’s company free of expectations. Monkey Bear Yoga wants to create these peaceful spaces in our community.

Cozy Sunday at home reading The Upanishads, drinking tea, and listening to the rain.
The weather has been dramatic moments of polar opposites today. At one moment pounding rain and the next the sky opens to the sun beaming through the clouds. The impermanence of one state of weather, nature’s reminder that change is constant. Nothing is permanent, our fortunes, our youth, our emotions, desires all change like the winds. What remains…those questions are answered in the Upanishads.

‘Changeless amidst the things that pass away,
Pure consciousness in all who are conscious,
The One answers the prayers of many.
Eternal peace is theirs who see the Self
In their own hearts.’
(Katha Upanishad, verse 13)

Diwali is celebrated by people all over the world. The beauty of Diwali is that the meaning of the holiday is universal although the stories differ according to each religion. Diwali is commonly known as the festival of lights. We light diyas and set off fireworks on the darkest night of Autumn. I remember as a child, Diwali was the one time of year I was not scolded for forgetting to turn off a light.

The true meaning of Diwali is light overcoming darkness. Good triumphs over evil, ignorance is extinguished by the light of knowledge. The meaning of Diwali remains relevant today. On a broad scale, we are being asked to show up to represent truth and wisdom in the world. Women in Iran need truth speakers in safe spaces to shed light on the ongoing abuse they suffer. Bodies that can create life need truth speakers in power to stand up for their reproductive rights in the U.S. The people of Ukraine need truth speakers to continue to tell their story to the world. People of color, those that have been disenfranchised, neglected, forgotten, marginalized, abused need truth speakers. The earth is calling for truth speakers to protect its very existence. There is darkness in the world. It can feel overwhelming. It is in the darkest of nights that we can see the most stars. Each of us is a spark of divinity. We are not alone. Together, we are many truth speakers that banish ignorance. Our collective light shines through the darkness driving out darkness.

This evening I will light a diya and celebrate the beauty of our collective light. Happy Diwali to each one of you. May the light of Diwali fill your hearts with love.

Om, Shanti, Shanti, Shanti

Sunrise Yoga is back!
Click on the link in bio to register.

On Indigenous People Day, let’s rise with the Sun to practice Yoga in community. All proceeds will be donated to Intertribal Friendship House (IFH).

https://www.ifhurbanrez.org

“Intertribal Friendship House (IFH) located in Oakland, CA was established in 1955 as one of the first urban American Indian community centers in the nation. It was founded by the American Friends Service Committee to serve the needs of American Indian people relocated from reservations to the San Francisco Bay Area. The Bay Area American Indian community is multi-tribal, made of Native people and their descendants—those who originate here and those who have come to the Bay region from all over the United States and from other parts of this hemisphere”

Hello Friends near and far! I’m starting Kids Yoga classes again on Mondays at 4pm PST. The class is hybrid- I will have an in person and virtual option.

Kids feel calmer, focused and more in touch with their emotional state with a regular yoga practice. It is also a wonderful way to improve strength and flexibility!

I haven’t posted in a while. I’ve been feeling quiet lately. On this Mother’s Day, I am moved to share this moment. This was the moment my children saw my mom after over a year. This love fills my heart. I am so grateful for my mother, for my sweet children and the love between them. My heart is full.

Spring is here in full bloom! Look at my girl all grown up. A new haircut and 3 inches of height gained definitely make her look a high schooler! I’m so proud of how she has handled the last year. I’m amazed by all the teens taking this year in stride, working hard and staying positive
