My internal world has been full of questioning lat

My internal world has been full of questioning lately… the ones that keep coming up are: who am I? What do I want to do - with this re-birth into life? Where am I going? What is my purpose? What do I want to create? The questions that emerge when everything under our feet seems like quicksand, when life has seemed contracting and you finally begin to see new openings and light.

I’m allowing space for those answers to emerge, supporting myself w a mindful art course with @bccancer and a weekly women’s circle. BecUse I need to. The emotional whorl is here and real; and while I know it has been a lot I don’t actually realize it until things come up and I feel all the feels.

The body I am in feels different, it is and it will take time to regain my strength and movement ability. And yet life continues and I feel its press: the pull of many roles I bear as a woman, a mother, a daughter, a wife, a teacher, an entrepreneur… and it can feel like a lot!!!

But then, there is a walk w the sunshine or moonlight on the horizon a meal that celebrates our senses and I remember that I have to stay on my path and begin again…

Photo sprinkles L to R:

6. This branch was so beautiful
7. Lion made a tiramisu (I halved the sugar it was still v sweet)!
8. An appt at BC cancer - I’ll have check ups every 3 months. Each time I see my oncologist I remember how far I have come
9. Today: a walk in the sunshine w my little guy.

Always counting my roses every day. Have not been writing much recently and need to commit to writing everything down about this last 15 months before I forget… still receiving messages from others encountering cancer and so happy that my story can help give inspiration and hope. Thanks for being here.
💖💫🙏🏼

The roots of where I come from ie. India have alwa

The roots of where I come from ie. India have always been an integral part of my practice and study of yoga and Ayurveda, even though my family is Muslim - yoga has always been both and integral and secular practice for me - yet connected deeply to Hindu philosophy - as is Ayurveda. Also so much of what I have learned I also owe to committed teachers and lineage in the west. As someone who has experienced this sort of transnational identity - of space, place, race and more - from living and moving and being in so many countries - i cherish and hold the threads that connect me to meaning and illumination. And I am committed to sharing those threads with lightness of heart and depth of experience.

Super honored to announce that I will be sharing Ayurveda and more @sedonayogafestival this March 2024. If you are considering it say yes. It will be a weekend to cherish. @theblissologist will also be there bringing his incredible Blissology yoga teachings.

And a host of amazing teachers.

Hope to see you there. Ticket prices on a super sale until tonight. Head over to @sedonayogafestival for more. 💖🙏🏼💫

Happy Saturday!!!

It’s cold and I awoke this morning feeling like

It’s cold and I awoke this morning feeling like I was coming down w a flu. But going outside is always my medicine and the sunshine put on its A game tonight…

One thing I am focusing on right now is how to heal myself by tuning into the rhythms of nature / to our circadian rhythms… this is at the heart of Ayurveda. Happily a lovely yogi sent me a book called “the rhythms of wellness” by Alberta teacher Jaki Daniels, which offers a Chinese medicine perspective on bio rhythms. 🙌

Here’s what is helping me these days:
👇🏽
🌞Getting sunshine when it’s strongest - these days I walk our dog at around 3:30 or 4 pm and soak up whatever light I can.
🥣making lunch my main meal and dinner lighter - this helps our digestive fire to work harder when it can (ie during the afternoon)
Winding down before 10 pm (trying)!!! But I notice how much better I sleep before getting that second wind of energy.

Lots more about this on my blog if you are interested. Look up « Dinacharya » @ yogue.ça and it will honestly transform your days.

Saw my surgeon today which was a reminder again of where I was a year ago and where I am today.

Grateful for a little space of light and sending out as much peace and love as I possibly can. The world needs it. We all do! 💫🙏🏼💖

Loss and grief: it feels both personal (in my body

Loss and grief: it feels both personal (in my body and mind after all the surgeries and treatment) and planetary right now with wars that keep on going. 😢

This week I had the opportunity to join a circle of courageous women led by a wise woman who held space for us all to speak out loud the grief we hold.

We spoke our losses holding onto a stone - their weight in our hands an anchor point - I found my stones earlier that day… walking to a beach w my son and his friend… I chose each one because it felt a certain way in my hands, because I felt their shape and beauty.

As we moved around the circle, time stopped.

Words don’t always allow us to fully feel what we are trying to express, but they try their best. And it can be simple words that sometimes express big, unspeakable things…

Tears were shed. The lights were dim and as I held my stone and spoke and then placed it into the vessel of water; I realized that it was only in walking through the curtain of pain that I felt whole once again.

There is a lot of suffering in life. And most often we cause suffering through our perception of what happened or is happening. What a relief to speak it out and make space for a new way of seeing and feeling.

I don’t have any solutions to the suffering around us. But I do know that it begins with each one of us. And the seed of healing lies in being more kind and more clear and making space for light and love to illuminate our shadows.

Grief is the other side of bliss. But we have to move through it to get there.
