Join us for a free Savasana Summit as we celebrate yoga’s most powerful pose and explore what it means to rest, soften, and be fully present.

A quote from the forthcoming book I’ve written with my daughter Lizzie Lasater, "Śavāsana: The Practice of Radical Rest"

True art comes from within.

Lee Krasner believed that an artist’s work is inseparable from who they are — their emotions, experiences, memories, struggles and identity.

Art isn’t simply about technique or creating something beautiful. It’s about expressing something deeply personal and authentic.

For women artists, this message is particularly powerful. For centuries, women were often expected to conform to society’s ideas of what they should create and who they should be.
Krasner reminds us that an artist’s greatest strength is her individuality.

You don’t need to become someone else to create meaningful art. Everything you need to begin is already within you.

Perhaps I will invoke this imagery this week for savasana... imagine you are an otter at one with the ocean.... :)

Feeling the flow between yoga practice, teaching, writing, and making art. Each practice feeds the others, and their intersections become places of possibility.

Life is art.

Yoga opens space to see, feel and breath in clearly the art unfurling within us and around us.

Ha!

BKS Iyengar in Vasiṣṭhāsana (Vasisthasana) — Side Plank Pose.

Falling out of alignment? Just turn it into a posture.

Yoga isn’t about never tripping.

It’s about learning how to land with presence, humor, and maybe a little flair.

Because even when it feels messy, your practice is still holding you.

Tag a friend who’s mastered the art of falling with flair or who needs this reminder today. Let’s normalize the messy moments together. 💛

In Iyengar yoga details matter. God is in the details! And alignment opens you to the benefits of the pose. The stability and lightness and spinal effects and nourishment.

In the digital age, we are engaging with our imaginations less and less, and this could have significant consequences, argues philosopher Amy Kind.

Though we may see it as a childhood pastime, it is also the skill we draw on to make our hardest decisions, understand the people around us, and work out who we want to become.

Reading for pleasure has nearly halved in two decades, and we increasingly outsource our creative thinking to machines.

We must recapture our imagination to sustain our capacity to conceive of things being other than they are.

Mondays mornings and afternoon are for private sessions and diving a little deeper together.

This week, I had the pleasure of working one-to-one with students, as well as with a lovely group of three women. Our focus was perimenopause and creating a nourishing, strengthening and emotionally stabilizing practice that helps us adapt to change while staying deeply connected to our bodies.

Private sessions can be individual or shared with a small group and thoughtfully tailored to meet you exactly where you are. See link in bio to access my website and more info on private sessions.
