Me: 😔 

The Velvet House Hippo was a small tank of a pittie with a mighty heart. He was a #lovernotafighter, an entertainer, and a fiercely loyal companion. 

I so, so, so appreciate everyone who texted, called, and sent condolences the old school way. 

My heart is still broken but his life and legacy is strongly in tact thanks to you (and the hundreds of photos on my iPhone). 💔

The ideal scents for balancing the extreme heat of the summer months are those that are cool and sweet: jasmine, rose, sandalwood, lavender, gardenia. 

And how convenient that these are 50% off right now. Shop the sale and get free shipping on orders $75 or more. Local? PM me to order and we'll save your shipping costs!

According to Ayurveda, the 3 doshas - vata, pitta, According to Ayurveda, the 3 doshas - vata, pitta, kapha - are made up of specific combinations of the five elements.

Vata = air and space
Pitta = fire and water
Kapha = water and earth 

The doshas are energies that pervade the body and mind, and each dosha has distinct physiological functions. 

Vata = nervous system
Pitta = digestion 
Kapha = growth

Every individual has a unique combination of the three which determines their mind-body person's constitution. Knowing this about yourself allows you to watch for potential imbalance as we often tend to favor that which throws us / keeps us off kilter. 

Ex: Ptta (fire) types, tend to love hot sauce and hot yoga. But y'all already carry a lot of heat naturally. Indulging in more can lead to a raging inferno (diarrhea, hot temper, heartburn). Ain't nobody got time for that. 
Know your dosha.🔥

That is all, carry on.

Last winter I signed up for tap classes. Last nig Last winter I signed up for tap classes. 
Last night we rehearsed in our recital costumes (yes, there is a recital even for us elder hoofers).
Soooooo many sequins. 

Two words can describe this process:
Joyful + Humbling 

And I wouldn’t change any of it. 👯‍♀️

April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month 💙 People ask April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month 💙

People ask why I chose to focus on Parkinson’s. The short answer? Because I saw a gap. I saw a population that deserved more support, more thoughtful movement, and more care than they were getting.

What started as continuing education became a calling.

If Parkinson’s is part of your life—or someone you love is living with it—I’d love to invite you into my Yoga4PD community. Each month, I share tips, tools, and resources for people with Parkinson’s and their care partners. It’s more than a newsletter. We’re building a community.
