A wonderful way to spend a weekend (safely distanced) I’m very happy to be offering healing restorative yoga at this retreat

One Tribe Yoga & Doula 10.02.2021

Bhagavad Gita verse of the week: Chapter 6, VERSE 14 Serene-minded, fearless, firm in the vow of brahmacarya, with mind controlled, fixed on Me and balanced, le...t the yogi sit having Me as the supreme goal. Babaji's partial commentary: When a meditator becomes of serene mind, fearless, and firm in the vow of living a godly life (brahmacarya), the meditator’s mind, intellect, and body naturally become controlled and balanced. This brings the utmost peace. In this way a meditator should continue meditation, keeping the aim of Self-realization, or God-realization, as the primary goal.

I could feel it today! The warmth and the suns rays. I could see it today! The buds sprouting and the shoots poking up. ... Everything is changing again. Just the way I like it. #growthmindset #springcleaning #chickswithchickens #longerdays #gardenplanning #changeisgood #flowlikewater #vanislewinter #yourtribeishere

Ok, so you can do asana, but there are 7 other limbs of yoga to explore ya know! Head to Netflix to check out this great series - it’ll introduce you to several of the ways you can begin (or continue to) meditate. It’s beautifully presented - and really great for kids too!

A new heartbeat is truly a miracle. There have been many thoughts and inspirations which have come as a result of being privileged to be part of another precious life coming into this world. A child is born as a ray of pure light from the creator of all things. -Roy Henry Vickers #doulasupport #babysnuggles #earthsider #birthdoulabliss #emerge #allthefeels #mamasupport

One Tribe Yoga & Doula 07.12.2020

As we round the corner and charge hesitantly into a new year, I can’t help but notice the trend in many of the posts I see, to wish 2020 hadn’t happened. While I totally understand how difficult it has been for us to adjust, pivot, recreate, invent, and reinvent over and over again this year, the rewards that these challenges have brought are IMMEASURABLE. When I used to teach classes (oh goodness, that sure was fun!) I often asked of the students to provide perhaps more tha...n they were accustomed to give on their mats, (aka my classes were considered to be hard) because I stand by the belief that it’s through placing ourselves in this perceived adversity, and difficulty that we find the warrior within. The warrior who’s voice says I am in control of the only thing that matters - the way I breath and the way I move through When practiced often enough in the safety of a class, this triggered warrior voice becomes ingrained in our belief, so that when a real life altering challenge is before us, the voice inside, that’s been training for this moment, brings us strength. 2020 was the year that our lives became the yoga class. Where instead of asking ourselves how well (indulgently), we can live our lives we began to ask how well can we suffer We learned how to suffer in a way that wasn’t harmful to others, or harmful to ourselves. We learned to suffer and GROW. We learned how to see suffering in others and not turn away, but to chuck a meme or a loving note their way. We learned that suffering is a part of the human experience, and that without it, would the joyful moments truly be as rapturous in relation?!? I’d like to offer that perhaps we start to share how INCREDIBLE 2020 has been. It offered us an opportunity like no other - to practice yoga off our mats, in the most palpable way possible - to find the warrior that chooses love, patience and peace. (Pic: For me 2020 meant finally giving up the mama guilt I carried of dividing myself constantly. I had time to love my babies and my family in a better way. I had the great gift of being able to teach them how to hold the pose even when you want to run out of the classroom, screaming)

One Tribe Yoga & Doula 02.12.2020

Eagerly waiting on my next doula baby to begin his entrance earth side...to be born to a wonderful family that will welcome him with so much ceremony and love My goodness, what a special and rare time of life - It’s bringing back so many memories of our own babies and their own adventures being born - I could SO do it again (now that I sleep a solid 8 and don’t wipe bums all day anymore haha) Who’s with me!? Mamas over 40 club anyone? If you’d like, pleas...e join me in creating thoughts of warmth, love and security so that this beautiful baby begins its journey to this world safely and enthusiastically when he’s ready to do so #doulasupport #babyborn #collectiveconsciousness #bornintothis #doulawork #groupenergywork #welcomehome #nanaimobirth #togetherwearestronger #vanislebaby @rosannaienco (so lovely!)

Something to think about as we get closer to the holidays Xooxox

One Tribe Yoga & Doula 12.11.2020

Three things: Finally getting awareness back into my body after weeks of having my attention dispersed nowhere near. Love me some holidays, but man oh man is it ever easy to slide back into old habits and patterns when there isn’t routine to direct actions! It’s humbling to learn that even after a bajillion hours of study, practice and teaching, that there is still so much I have to learn in yoga. ... I’m elated to have found a teacher again after a long drought. My thirst is being quenched! @patrickcreelman #returntothewild #430wakeup #everythingisyoga #vanisleyoga #yourtribeishere #hotellife #wildlotus #twisted #onetribe

Remember that time in class when I said practice like we are going into lockdown tomorrow and you won’t have your studio class again for a while .... I hope you were able to :) My intention for saying that was to remind you that all things are always changing, always shifting, and to hold on to the moment you’re in, not the one that’s yet to come or the ones that have faded into the past. Well, here we are, lockdown numero dos ... but with a deeper wisdom and understandin...g perhaps, that yes, this will pass too! I hope you can feel that. In the meantime, please don’t stop supporting your local studio - we want to be here for you again once these measures are lifted. There’s some great @oxygennanaimo gear to gift, including hats, sweaters, and mats and more - Team Oxygen will come back lookin better than ever! (Curb side pickup available to keep you safe) Online classes starting up soon too so we can still hang and move without the risk. Stay tuned! I can’t wait to see you again soon xoox #doinittogether #supportlocal #missyousomuch #covideffects #oxygenyogaandfitness #oxygennanaimo #swag #getyourgear #oxygenarmy #movingforward #onebreathatatime

Although there are no active forest fires in my region, the smoke from down south is causing us to experience among the highest levels of air pollution in the w...orld right now. Apart from staying inside and keeping hydrated, theres a few things you can do to protect yourself. As the smoke itself is a toxin, supporting antioxidant mechanisms is important, including the consumption of fresh, brightly coloured vegetables and fruits rich in nutrients such as beta carotene, vitamin C, flavonoids, and chlorophyll. Sulfur-containing foods to replete glutathione levels such as garlic, onion, and cruciferous vegetables (e.g. broccoli) are also helpful, and there is good research that sulfur-containing supplements such as n-acetyl cysteine (NAC) can prevent and reduce lung inflammation caused by air pollution. And as these inhaled toxins are mobilized and excreted by the liver, avoid drugs and alcohol, and consider liver supportive herbs such as turmeric and our local Oregon grape root (Oregon grape berries for the win!). I also use certain medicinal mushrooms to modulate inflammation and support the lungs such as reishi, turkey tail, and cordyceps. More generally, other important nutrients to consider include vitamins B, D, and E, as well as essential fatty acids, zinc, and probiotics. As far as specific herbs go, there are a number that can help with smoke pollution, some to mobilize congestion such as elecampane and mullein, to soothe mucosal irritation such as marshmallow and licorice, and herbs to ease spasm such as lobelia and wild cherry. If you can get it, one of my favourite herbs for the lungs is amla fruit, which the major component of the Ayurveda formula Chyavanaprash. Stay safe everyone, and lets pray for rain!

Loads in the news these days about whether school will start again in a few weeks or not - I know it has divided a lot of folks in their opinions - We all have different boundaries and needs, which when not met, can create chaos in our worlds. I anticipate its going to get a bit heavy in the coming weeks as people scramble to adapt, but please remember that regardless of whats going on, youre not alone in the navigation of it. Youre not alone in feeling like you want/d...ont want change. Youre not alone in feeling frustrated or sad, or even mad. Were all in this together - whether youre a teacher, principle, a school worker, a parent or a guardian, or even a student.... Lets do this patiently, together, so that down the road we look back proudly, as one community with different needs. #allforone #schoolornoschool #bettertogether #sd68 #teachersrock #vanisletribe #yourtribeishere #kidslife

Sneaky peaky into my journal: A great lesson that birthed the theme for my classes this week. . Feedback is essential if were gunna grow, but youve got to get your stuff from a trusted dealer right!? Finding mentors who will encourage your growth is critical and so rare (and damn sacred if you ask me) ... . Do you have a mentor who you trust to give it to you like it is? If not, who can you think of whos opinion you VALUE and who lives a life you want to emulate?? If youre a mentor to someone, how does it help you grow?!

*Ancient Nahuatl Blessing* I release my parents from the feeling that they have already failed me. I release my children from the need to bring pride to me; th...at they may write their own ways according to their hearts, that whispers all the time in their ears. I release my partner from the obligation to complete myself. I do not lack anything, I learn with all beings all the time. I thank my grandparents and forefathers who have gathered so that I can breathe life today. I release them from past failures and unfulfilled desires, aware that they have done their best to resolve their situations within the consciousness they had at that moment. I honor you, I love you and I recognize you as innocent. I am transparent before your eyes, so they know that I do not hide or owe anything other than being true to myself and to my very existence, that walking with the wisdom of the heart, I am aware that I fulfill my life project, free from invisible and visible family loyalties that might disturb my Peace and Happiness, which are my only responsibilities. I renounce the role of savior, of being one who unites or fulfills the expectations of others. Learning through, and only through, LOVE, I bless my essence, my way of expressing, even though somebody may not understand me. I understand myself because I alone have lived and experienced my history; because I know myself, I know who I am, what I feel, what I do, and why I do it. I respect and approve of myself. I honor the Divinity in me and in you. We are free." (This ancient blessing was created in the Nahuatl language, spoken in Mexico. It deals with forgiveness, affection, detachment, and liberation). https://www.cathedralofthesoul.org//Ancient-Nahuatl-Blessi

As things begin to open back up around the world, just remember that you're not in a rush to "pick back up where you left off". You're not in a rush to have to prove anything to anyone.... You've grown and evolved. This time has given us the opportunity to reflect on the things that we REALLY want to be doing, the things that we NEED to be doing, and the things that we don't really need to be doing. It's put into perspective the people and relationships that are most important. So just let this be a gentle reminder to take your time.

I taught my first class in two and a half months this past weekend: it was a birthday gift to a sweet girl and her besties, and we were able to do it outside at a beach, safely distanced. I cant even begin to describe how much I missed having the words spill from my mouth. In speaking the teachings I adore so much, Im reminded of how sacred they are. I really, really, really cant wait to guide in person classes again, and am sorry that I wasnt able to offer online classe...s. . These last few months have offered me an excellent opportunity to hone my skill, and define my passion more clearly.

Good morning gang :) I wanted to step away from the forests weve been buried in & check in for a sec. To see how youre doing and coping with this exciting and challenging time weve been living in. I hope that everyone you love and cherish is healthy and staying connected. I hope that youre able remember the teachings of your practice, and that they remind you that this too will all be different soon enough. I cant thank you enough for your messages and comments, and wa...nt to especially direct this post to those of who who have written asking when Ill be offering classes online. I have been hesitant to do so as Ive always guided my classes by gut, and have been fortunate to formulate a daily class plan based on what I felt from you, from nature, and from what was current and relevant. Adjusting students, both verbally and physically is a big part of my teaching as well, so its for these reasons that Ive resisted teaching online. Ive been given an opportunity to offer a few workshop-style classes in collaboration with a dear friend, and would house these classes on her website on a pay-per-play basis. Id love to consider this, as its time I emerge out of the cocoon of the past and learn how to continue my lifes work too. ... Please post or message me your workshop requests and Ill do what I can to support them all. Id love to help you continue on your own path of study, inquiry and passion. Sending you all a great, big, tight squeeze!! #emerge #nanaimoyoga #vanislelife #yourtribeishere #vanisleyoga #timetofly #makinglearningfun #supportlocal
