about me
I'm a yoga teacher/practitioner, Holistic Health Practitioner and movement artist. I graduated from a certification program for Holistic Health Practitioner at the World School of Massage & Holistic Healing Arts. I'm currently enrolled in the Professional Massage Program at the school and super very excited. I inspire all to embody their whole being. All these tools of practice have helped me follow my path without fear. My self-confidence has improved and I'm still peeling away at the layers. Fear is what stops all of us in our tracks. It can be frightening but once you face it, absorb it and acknowledge it the healing goes on from there. I'm one to wear myself thin with too many projects but I feel I have more awareness of that now and back off from things without any judgement. I'm all about taking care of myself, my mind, my body and my partner. See how I put myself first? I never used to do that and it feels great! I try not to over-analyze, just be in the moment, be present. To live in every possible way and have a good time. Oh and I LOVE CHOCOLATE and always will....

i have ranted about peppermint before and i'll do it again. IT ROCKS! it was nice not to have class last night and go out with some classmates, but man, going out on a school night can have an affect on you the next day. at least nowadays. for me. i found my first gray hair yesterday and was like, shit that's pretty cool. then feeling groggy after lunch, patted my temples with some peppermint oil and poof! instant perk! now with a sliver of a hangover (thank god i remembered the ibprofen and ... read more

it was a full weekend, but of wonderful things. i performed friday and saturday night; saw avatar; taught yoga; took a butoh workshop; went food shopping and made dinner with my hubby.

performing was fun, surprising and exhilarating! i performed to yma sumac, an amazing peruvian singer of the 50s and 60s who can sing in 4 octaves (sorry, mariah but she outdoes ya!). the name of my piece was "snake goddess" in which i did become a snake goddess. i not only had the white, butoh make up on, b... read more
