Yoga has helped me re-find myself. I went to my first yoga class probably about 10 years ago. My daughter, Jordan enjoyed yoga with me. It was fun and warming to my heart to look over in class and see her in tree pose or warrior II beside me. When she died over 7 years ago, a deep, deep wound sliced directly to my heart. I wasn’t sure how or if I wanted to keep going… to yoga or to living. I stepped off my yoga mat for over 4 years. I missed yoga, my daughter, and myself. Somewhere deep inside me, I discovered this yearning for better and for more… life!

Three years ago, I rolled out my yoga mat again in the Drishtiq studio. Yoga has been a journey of transformation and rebuilding of who I am and what I want to become. My mat is my safe space to connect to something deeper inside me and find that Oneness that connects us all.

Practice is one of my favorite words… I am practicing living, practicing staying present, and practicing finding myself.

This past fall, I enrolled in the Yoga Teacher Training at Drishtiq Studio. I am overjoyed to share that myself and three other beautiful women are now certified yoga teachers! Yoga has helped me bridge the visible with the invisible and see it all with my heart. I carry all these teachings with me on and off my mat. This Drishtiq community means love, beauty, and abundant heart space. I will always have my daughter, Jordan beside and within me, on and off my yoga mat. I am so very grateful for this practice!

The Light in me sees and honors that Light within you!
