costa rica retreat april 22-27! mike and i are going back to @bluespiritcostarica - it’s the most magical place. the nicoya peninsula is home to one of the world’s 5 blue zones where people have the highest life expectancy 🌱 ⁣

fresh air, delicious local food, tons of nature (literally the monkeys wake you up), mindful community and yoga all come together on this trip for an amazing time and you will feel SO ALIVE + HEALTHY. plus you can learn how to surf or ride the waves! nosara and blue spirit are truly some of our favorite places on the planet, you won’t want to leave 💚 #yoga #yogaretreat #explore #travelyoga

we are finally emerging from the black hole that is cold + flu season 2019 😷🤞🏼 poor charlie caught it first, mike second and i brought it home over the weekend. after doctor’s visits, essential oils, nebulizer, otc medicine, chicken soup, steamy showers and all the natural remedies, we are on the mend - but one by one, it slowed all of us down to a standstill. i spent the weekend in bed - taking it easy, reading and resting. as sad as i was not to be out in the world, it is the reminder i need to take pause and put health first always. repairing my universe, one turmeric ginger tea at a time 💛 #yogamom #love

i’ll do it...⁣⁣

TODAY ✨⁣

sound familiar? i get stuck all the time by my own limiting beliefs. it’s only when i get out of my own way that the magic happens 💖 i also intimately know how scary it feels to take the plunge... and on the flip side, there’s nothing like it.

made it 🙌🏼✈️ 7am solo flight out of MIA, opted for no stroller. did all my prep, loaded boarding pass the night before. after lugging charlie to our very distant gate, found out that it had been changed overnight to the complete other side of the airport (E33 to D7). almost melted down. started running with charlie in my arms. hailed a ride in one of those beeping carts. ran to our gate as it was closing. nice stewardess who greeted us on the plane gave charlie a cookie. sat down and turned on the disney channel on the seatback tv. *exhale* 💖 #yogamom #explore

warmer days + beach vibes ahead... the one month countdown is ON for our tulum retreat🌴💖🧘🏼‍♀️and honestly, i can’t wait! charlie’s getting over being sick, mike is headed out of town to train with his teacher @blissology and i love having this to look forward to 🙏🏼✈️ #travel #explore #retreat #tulum

my mantra for the week ahead 🌀 i also relate to it as the sacred pause... the moment between the thought and the word. the split second before the reaction that turns it instead into a response. taking the time to think instead of just doing. doing less. it’s a cultivated skill, the unplugging - not one that we automatically do. and one that i’m always working on practicing. #yoga #love #slowdown #presence

two years ago today, i found out i was pregnant.⁣
⁣
i had zero clue what to expect on this journey, zero idea the changes i would go through - physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally - to bring our baby into the world. ⁣
⁣
feels like i've grown a lifetime in those two years. yesterday i was walking charlie to the playground and an older woman eating at a restaurant caught my eye through the window. she smiled at charlie and gave me a thumbs up, as if to say - i see you, mama. and it reminded me that i'm part of something much bigger than myself in this process. supported, connected, loved. and it's a beautiful thing. #mom #yogamom #love⁣ photo by @matt_roy

🌻 some days you just have to find your own sunshine 🌞 let’s brighten up the world together... see you on the mat tonight 6pm @tropicalvinyasa #love #sunshine

charlie’s first trip to the farm 🍓🍅 an hour out of town and it feels like a different world. picking tomatoes, running around in the field, free parking 😂 mike and i love a day in nature - and with everything lately, it was very needed 🥬 #grateful #love #miami
