I am over the moon excited to be collaborating with @newearthnatalie to open a Waldorf-inspired nature-based drop off experience for children between the ages of 5 and 7. The New Earth Village will be held on the Yoga Yurt property. Immersed in nature, children will experience wholesome days surrounded by a large organic garden, beautiful trees, horses, and chickens, and a Mongolian Yurt that allows for a unique and intimate womb-like space to return to connection with S...elf and community. We recognize that many of us are yearning a heart and soul connection to others, our environment, and ourselves. Our intention is to offer a support system for families that will guide and hold us in this time of great awakening and change. Natalie and I have co-created a Waldorf-inspired drop off experience for homeschooled children, allowing for a soulful, loving, and playful learning experience outdoors. The New Earth Village is a safe space that allows for conscious, fluid, and holistic learning experiences. Children will be immersed in a peaceful and consistent rhythm filled with storytelling and song in circle, fairy tales and puppet shows, farmstead chores, imaginative free play, gardening and harvesting, bread baking, nature walks filled with awe and wonder, art with a variety of mediums (clay, painting, drawing), yoga and meditation in the Mongolian yurt, creative visualization and breath work, energy awareness, body and emotional awareness activities, outdoor games to build trust, gratitude, joy, confidence, and compassion, weekly drumming circles and bonfires, and, monthly family gathering days. We are open for registration Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays of the week, 10 AM 3 PM, providing children with organic meals and snacks, filtered water and herbal tea. Limited space is available, and priority will be given to children who are registered on all four days. The Autumn Term begins on September 14th, 2020 and concludes on December 18th, 2020. If you are interested in learning more about The New Earth Village, our daily rhythm, and our fees, please email Natalie and I at [email protected] Love and Light, Hannah

Woohoo , I have been connecting with a group of amazing humans for about 6 months and co-creating this dream, New Earth Village! Thank you Natalie Natasha for writing about our dream and thank you Collective Evolution for sharing the magic. Take a look, if this resonates with you reach out and connect.

This Saturday night, July 4th 7:30pm-9:30pm, will be the first Full Moon Yoga Spirit Medicine Circle in person outside on the farm. > It will be a night of aligning with our Spiritual Sun, as we ascend, reclaim and amplify our personal magic and spirit medicine. > An opportunity to be held, as we nourish to let go of the last threads that have been holding us back. Can you feel your Soul moving you forward? Can you feel your insecurities, the tape in autoplay in your mind ...hold you back? > As you root into the Earth, step through the portal this Full Moon Eclipse will open to come into soul alignment with the Spiritual Sun, can you step into flow? Can you feel and re-member the rhythm of your Soul in your bones? > Join @naty_howard in person, this Saturday night for a powerful night of alignment and recalibration. > Yoga Spirit Medicine Moon Circles are a fusion practice of yoga, shamanism, breathwork, toning, anchored by the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition Shamanic Altar at the centre of our space.

How inspiring is this sunshine and spring we are embracing at the moment? ... These words, this song, makes me feel all the feels every morning when I wake, I can’t get enough... I want to be free so free Like a feather blowing through the breeze Like a bird in a tree Like a dolphin in the sea I want to fly high so high Like an eagle in the sky And when my time has come I'll let it all go with a sigh Pachamama, I'm coming home To the place where I belong Pachamama, I'm coming home To the place where I belong I want to be free, be me Be the only being that I see Not to rise and not to fall Be at one with love and all There is no high, no low There is nowhere else to go Except inside within your heart And be just who you are Pachamama, I'm coming home To the place where I belong Pachamama, I'm coming home To the place where I belong Pachamama, I'm coming home To the place where I belong Pachamama, I'm coming home To the place where I belong . . **Pachamama** **Song by Beautiful Chorus** . . . May we continue to find freedom within our hearts and connect deeply with Mama Earth as we surround ourselves with kindness, compassion and gratitude. May we find our strength and heal together. I’m thinking of you, sending hugs and love your way

Hiya Beautiful Souls, It’s been awhile How are you doing dear ones?... I miss you. I’ve been feeling like I need to cocoon myself, holding space and just being... Me... what does that look like? This has been the big question... Getting back to me and my little one. Spending most of our time in nature, practicing shadow work and letting go of old stuff and patterns that are resurfacing. Letting go of the guilt I feel for not doing enough, being enough, supporting enough I am just being and it feels like a wild wave of emotions and awakening... to who I really am, what I really want, who I want to do it with and just allowing myself to surrender, receive and transform... In my cocoon... laying low, doing less... What if... we are all in some kind of transformation, Mother Earth and all beings, as a collective. Transformation; like the precious butterfly... A few days ago Willow (my fairy child who is 2) came up to me with this object (you can see in the second picture), I said what do you have willow, did you find garbage? Go throw it out, willow said, no mommy! It’s a beautiful butterfly... I replied yes you are right, it is she now has it on her alter It’s all about perspective... . Thank you dear little Willow for once again being my greatest teacher. How are you transforming? Does this resonate with you? Wherever you are, whatever you are doing during this time, please remember, it is enough. You are enough We are enough Together we hold space and shine our light for each other in whatever form it comes... I love you. Hannah Banana xoxo

Hello brave and beautiful humans, Bring present in the moment, accepting change, having faith and going with the flow... After talking with many beloved Yogis within the community, my family, friends (all of you ) and after much consideration we have decided to close the doors to the yurt for a few weeks(or as long as it takes). As we do our part in contributing to flatten the curve for the community and our Country. May you enjoy this down time, connect to Mother Earth a...s she speaks to us with wise wisdom, listen to your body as it knows exactly what it needs. Practice Yoga at home, you will be surprised what you will remember as you start to move your body!! Breath deeply, fully and remember you are loved, supported, safe and held in divine love and light always. Let’s all take a moment to pause and focus on all the beautiful things happening in the community and around the world right now To name a few... *Spending more time with our loved ones *Spending more time with Mother Earth *Communities and countries coming together and supporting each other with compassion and kindness *The blue skies in China as the pollution lifts and the birds chirp and sing *Huge reductions in air pollution and global heating *Italians signing to each other from their balconies *Humans taking care of themselves and looking at what they can do to boost there immune systems and live a healthier life *Looking at what we can do to heal and give back to Mother Earth as she needs to heal and things need to change for us to keep walking upon her for generations to come *A chance to slow down, do less and go within Sending prayers to those struggling, to the families who have lost those they love and to all beings everywhere. We are so unbelievably connected as I send you hugs and Thai massage rubs! Love, Hannah

Hey Yoga Yurt Family First of all, I hope that you and your loved ones are happy and healthy and enjoying this extra time together. As of now, Yoga Yurt is open and we are running our full schedule and workshops.... During this time, there are many ways we can help each other stay healthy and happy in our community at the Yurt. Here are a few: *We kindly ask that if you or someone you live with are feeling ill, or you are uncertain about your health, please stay home, heal and rest. * If you have travelled outside of Canada in the last 14 days, we ask that you self-isolate and stay home. What YOU can do that helps when visiting the Yurt: *Bring your own mat and use the sanitizer spray after class * Bring a towel to put over props *If you do not want hands on love, no problem! Just let us know and we will be sure to ask when we are offering it. What WE are doing to help: *We have mat spray to clean your mats after class as well as hand sanitizer to use whenever you like. *We will be sanitizing our mats and props extra carefully. *Removing eye pillows for the time being, so bring your own or you can purchase in our boutique. *Teachers will be hand sanitizing often *Thieves essential oil and immune boosting oils will be going in the diffuser, yummy!!! *As you know if you have visited the Yurt before, we always smudge sage before and after class, this helps to remove energy that no longer serves us, it is also known to purify the air as well as many other benefits. **Hannah will be offering private Yoga classes in the yurt or at your home & **Build your own personalized home Yoga practice with Hannah over Skype or FaceTime May we continue to gather in a sacred space. Practicing YOGA, positive thinking/affirmations, meditations, ceremony and intention setting. Letting go of anything that no longer serves us, as we breathe, move our bodies, boosting our immune system and quieting the mind. Finding our balance in this wild world as we connect with our inner peace, harmony and healing energy (which by the way is MIGHTY POWERFUL)! I am here for you and I am grateful for all of you beautiful souls. Love, Hannah Xoxo
