I feel that I haven’t appreciated living in a city fully this past year since we moved back to vancouver. But one of the things I do love most about cities is the access to cultural diversity - from sharing traditions and art with friends and strangers, learning from other cultures especially through story; and tasting new foods. It was a bit of effort on this cold Sunday but lion and I made it to the Chinatown parade. He loved the color and the spectacle of it and I loved seeing the transformation of public space and yes the people watching! We connected w some dear friends, tasted some new year delicAcies and beautiful tea and enjoyed being in the throng of all the busy-news. Like “good” Canadians we are also embracing the cold 🥶 and lion reveled in the soft white flakes tumbling down... ❄️❄️❄️ winter is here, again... happy new year to all who celebrate it!!! #sundaysinvancity #vancouver #chinatownparade #snow #yogamama #cities #diversity #weekend #consciousparenting #mothering #canada

Full moon... I am feeling you “fully” right now. Staying open, staying present, allowing expression to move through me. Thanks @victoriayogaconference for such an illuminating weekend. It feels fitting that I get to call in the full moon eve tonight w a talk on conscious parenting, circling 8 years to the date when @blissology and I welcomed our bliss babe into this world - he was born feb 19, 2011 pulled by the moon’s fullness out of my womb :) ✨ Today I feel grateful for the wisdom of life as it continues to reveal itself more fully. #blissedandblessed #modernayurveda #blissology #yogafam #insiyayoga #victoriayoga #yogue #breathe #fullmoonvibes #acceptance This amazing art is by @thealchemyofdesign ✨

Into the quietness Into the stillness Breathe. Let your breath meet you Wherever you are Breathe light Breathe life Breathe love Exhale it out. Let your good vibes Hug the world Into sweetness. ❤️ ... #vancouver #snowstorm #winter #Insiyayoga #yogamind #meditate #breathe #exhale #letitgo #modernayurveda #takinginthelight #elementalvinyasa #yogue #blissology #blissedandblessed #yogamama

Whew this last week did rush by - anyone else feeling it??? finally a bit of a pause this am! I used a v early wake up time to make some ghee and strain some organic chicken broth loaded w tons of veggies and herbs - the broth simmered all night and longer and wow It is so delicious. The kitchen smells divine, I feel more nourished and am so happy lion slurped down his khichadi (that we cooked in some bone broth) at lunch. Cooking is so much about being in rhythm and flow for me. It’s also so easy to get out of the flow and this week was a challenge as we were busy. But I try not to get too caught up in what I didn’t do and instead I use the weekends to stock up literally on stock and more good stuff to keep our little family happy and healthy!!! From our kitchen to yours, lots of love :) #wellness #familywellness #ghee #ayurvedicchef #omnivore #wholefoods #yogafamily #nourish #blissedandblessed #insiyayoga #ayurvedalife #modernayurveda

My books are spread out around me and I have heaps of notes and reminders of questions I want to ask. Lion is out finally sledding in the snow and I can dive in deep. It has been a journey but I am finally getting closer to completing the first step of my Ayurveda Counsellor and eventually practitioner journey. I spoke w a mentor today about some of the externship clients I’ve seen over the past few weeks. Her counsel was wise and loving and guided me deeper into unraveling and understanding how we can get a little more clear. How Ayurveda can give us more insight when we ask the right questions, how we can gently and compassionately hold space for all our trials, our suffering and pain and also offer glimpses into our innate healing wisdom. I never thought I would like working one on one with people so much in this way, but I truly do. We learn so much from sharing our stories, from being vulnerable enough to share our truth and it offers so much learning, insight and a deeper commitment to this powerful, healing work. Today I am filled w gratitude. love ✨❤️ #ayurveda #ayurvediccounsellor #modernayurveda #blissology #yogue #insiyayoga #snowday #vancouver #mountmadonna #counselling #awareness #holistichealth #breathe #yogue #study #yogalife #yogateacherlife #yogamama #healing #wellness #holisticlife #neverstoplearning #evolution #growth

Let your hands be a reflection of your heart and your mind. Relax and soften the fingertips so you can let go of tension and that bodily awareness will in turn help to calm your mind and soften the heart. ✨✨✨ This is something you can do yes in yoga and meditation but also at your desk, during a challenging conversation or anywhere in life. When we recognize that we are whole, connected beings we open up to true possibility. Pic from the new meditations and flows on @alo.moves w @blissology - see you next week @victoriayogaconference i am so so excited to share lots of yoga and Ayurveda goodness at this sweet community conference! #fridays #yogateacherlife #iloveyoga #meditation #breathe #flow #handsheart #embodiedmeditation #embodiedyoga #blissology #bliss #blissedandblessed #insiyayoga #yogue #iloveyoga #yogacouple #yogamama #vancouveryoga #alomoves #yogainspo #mindfullife
