No filter needed when Mother Nature paints the sky like this ✨🌅
Karl and I escaped to Emerald Isle for a few days to relax, reset, and simply breathe. After hosting a retreat ❤️ and a wonderful YMYTT Yoga Teacher Training graduation❤️, this moment felt like a gentle reminder from the universe:
Rest is sacred.
Stillness is medicine.
And sometimes the most powerful practice is simply being present. Gratitude~
May this sunset remind you to soften, exhale, and trust the timing of your own unfolding.

Yoga-Mojo's “Spirit of the Mountains” Retreat at Moon Rising Retreat Center was filled with connection, laughter, deep breaths, meaningful conversation, rest, reflection, and so many special moments together.

From yoga and meditation… to hiking the trails, Art-in-the-Park, creative arts & crafts, nourishing meals, quiet moments in nature, and simply slowing down long enough to listen — it was truly a gift to share this time and space together. 💚⛰️

And a very special thank you to Claire and Bond for opening and sharing their beautiful mountain home with all of us.

The mountains have a way of reminding us what matters most. 🌿

✨ Save the Date ✨
The next Yoga-Mojo Retreat in the Mountains will be:
September 17–20, 2026

Details coming soon…

🐾 Happy National Rescue Dog Day from Kaipo 🐾

Sometimes the sweetest souls find their way into our lives in unexpected ways. ❤️

A friend (thank you Laura A) sent us a photo of a puppy needing a home… and before we knew it, Kaipo had found his way into our hearts and our family.

“Kaipo” is Hawaiian for little sweetheart or beloved — and oh, is he ever loved.

You may spot Kai:
✨ walking the lake with us
✨ making occasional appearances at the studio
✨ lounging at the beach
✨ or fully embracing the art of deep relaxation 😴😂

And yes… Koa, our cat, and Kai are somewhat becoming friends. (Progress is being made. 😉)

Today feels like a beautiful reminder that rescue animals don’t just need homes — they bring love, joy, laughter, companionship, and a whole lot of heart into ours.

Happy Rescue Dog Day to all the sweet rescued companions out there. 🐶❤️

“Queen of Peace,” written by Nalina Blossom, is a mantra/song I return to again and again—especially in moments when I’m seeking a sense of calm, grounding, and quiet connection within. It’s my hope that this chant becomes a space for you to soften, to breathe, and to remember the peace that already lives inside you.

And… a little joy woven in as well—keep an eye out for a special guest appearance by Kaipo, our 18-week-old puppy 🐾✨ This is the first time he's heard the harmonium!

May this practice be a gentle refuge.
May it bring you peace.
May that peace ripple outward into the world.

❤️

I’m so excited to share that my three books are now available on Amazon 🤍

The Art of Vinyasa Sequencing – Yoga-Mojo Method
Maturing on the Mat©️
Yoga Mythology ~ A Resource for Yoga Teachers and Practitioners

Each one was created to support you in a different way — whether you’re learning to craft intentional, meaningful sequences, adapting your practice as your body evolves, or bringing the richness of mythology, mantra, and mudra into your teaching / your practice.

If you feel called to explore a little deeper, I’d love for you to take a look. Available via Amazon or at Yoga Collective.

MOVE~ BREATHE~ LIVE~

One of my true happy places…
Sitting in sacred space with students, exploring the deeper branches of yoga — where movement softens, breath deepens, and sound becomes a doorway inward.

Today in our Yoga-Mojo Yoga Teacher Training, Yoga of Sound…
Listening, feeling, and allowing the resonance of the bowls to guide us into stillness.

This is the heart of the practice for me —
not just what we do on the mat, but what we experience within. Each practice a 'journey'.

So grateful for these moments, these teachings, and this community.
And... big thanks to Marisol for the pic!! xoxoxo

💜 Momentum Yoga & Wellness-Crystal Coast. Hope to see you Friday in Morehead City~🙏

When one of your favorite yoga teachers reaches out and says I’ll be in town for a few days, do you want to get together? Maybe a little mantra and harmonium?? Hmmmmm, YES please!!! It’s time for a POP-UP!!💃🏼🕉️🔥

Join Loretta Jo, this Friday afternoon, March 20th @ 3:30 pm for a Movement, Mantra, and Mythology class experience that combines physical postures (asana) with ancient storytelling, devotional chanting, and sound vibrations. This class will focus on bringing the “why” behind yoga poses to life, using archetypal tales of gods, goddesses, and heroes to enhance personal reflection, self-discovery, and spiritual connection on and off the mat.✨
