Oh My Yoga

🌺🙏🏽 And that’s a wrap on the inaugural Oh My Yoga Bali Retreat at Santra Putra Guesthouse!

Over 5 days and 9 sessions, we shared more than 17 hours of yoga and mindfulness practice, enjoyed scenic walks through the local landscape, took part in a sacred water purification ceremony, and indulged in plenty of delicious food and drinks along the way.

So proud of our 6 wonderful students, all of whom were Bali and yoga retreat first timers.

Adapting to the rhythms of a new place and committing to a daily practice of self development is no easy feat - especially at the start. Yet every single one of them showed up every day with a willingness to embrace whatever challenges awaited them.

Watching their confidence grow and their practice deepen over the course of the retreat was truly special.

Thank you for trusting in the process and for helping make this first Bali yoga retreat such a memorable experience. 2027 dates coming soon! ✨🧘🏽‍♀️🌴

have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language.

Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them.

And the point is, to live everything.

Live the questions now.

Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.

- Rainer Maria Rilke, from “Letters to a Young Poet”

For months, I’ve been getting DMs asking if I was in Bali because of my content… Well, now that I’m officially back, here’s a sneak peek of my home practice just to confuse you a bit more 🤪🤣

While my social accounts are 100% authentic - made up of photos, videos, and screenshots from real-life practices and classes - it’s still not real life. I don’t post in real time, and I usually only post the pretty things. It’s a curated version of my life as a yoga student and teacher.

Sorry to burst your social media bubble 😂😝 but don’t worry… there’s plenty more Bali content coming soon.

Backbends week, or as one of my students called it yesterday morning; “the anti-Quasimodo class” 🤣

Backbends help to strengthen the back body, so we can open and expand the chest, front body and mind.

They may look outwardly impressive and physically challenging (and they are!) but they also require a great deal of mental attention and focus too…

Even with space between,
our paths still wind the same

still bend
and fold
and melt

to align our spirit
with purpose

still pull
and pool
and flow

as parallel tracks
as maps
to soul mates

still babble
and snake
and slow

allowing us to
connect
and reflect

to grow in ways
we might not have.

Even with the space between
I know

that on our journeys
though diverse

we are not alone.

Alone, I crossed the Field of Emptiness,
dropping my reason and my senses.
I stumbled on my own secret there
and flowered, a lotus rising from a marsh.

How many downward dogs?

Too many to keep count, and at least three times as many still to come in this lifetime…

Small progress and improvements - yes, always. Perfection - probably never!
