💗💗💗

Widening the Circles of Care 🙏💕

What helps us widen our circles of care and awaken a more inclusive, compassionate heart?

As we navigate political division, collective uncertainty, and personal challenges, mindful awareness and spiritual imagination can help us stay connected to love without being overwhelmed by the suffering we witness.

Drawing from mindfulness, compassion practices, personal stories, and timeless wisdom teachings, Tara explores how we can move beyond fear, reactivity, and "othering" toward a deeper experience of our shared humanity.

This talk is an invitation to reconnect with the truth of our belonging—to ourselves, to one another, and to the living world. When we deepen our attention and allow our hearts to be touched, we become part of weaving a more loving future.

In this talk, you'll learn:

-How fear and stress fuel division, blame, and "othering"
-Why opening to suffering can deepen wisdom and compassion
-The role of mindfulness in staying present without becoming overwhelmed
-How spiritual imagination helps us envision and create a more loving world
-Practices for recognizing the vulnerability and goodness in others

💛 Have you forgotten what it feels like to enjoy the little things? 💛

Not the big holidays or special occasions.

I'm talking about the simple moments:

✨ Sunshine on your skin
✨ A genuine laugh
✨ A deep breath
✨ Feeling connected to yourself again

Life can become so focused on getting through the day that we stop noticing the things that bring us joy.

This week in my gentle Yin Yoga class, we'll explore The Small Joys of Letting Go - creating space for gratitude, emotional warmth, and those tiny moments that make life feel lighter.

This isn't about being flexible or fit enough.

It's about slowing down, listening to your body, and reconnecting with what feels good.

🌿 Gentle supported Yin Yoga poses, chairs available

A big thank you my rad students this week 💚

We've talked a lot about cultivating and awakening joy these last 2 weeks, and your generosity of spirit to keep returning to our classes and the deep appreciation i feel sharing them with you makes me SO HAPPY!

Every week, I'm inspired by the stories, insights, and experiences you share.

So today I'd love to turn the conversation over to you.

Complete this sentence:

✨ Yoga has taught me that my body __________________.

I'll start:

Yoga has taught me that my body doesn't need to look a certain way to be worthy of care.

Your turn 🙏🏼

One of the most persistent myths in yoga is that deeper is better.

But our bodies are not identical.

Differences in skeletal structure, proportions, joint orientation, and connective tissue all influence how a pose feels and how it looks.

A person who appears to be going "deeper" isn't necessarily getting more benefit.

In fact sometimes they've simply reached a different anatomical end range.

In Functional Yoga, we focus on the purpose of the pose rather than the appearance of the pose.

✨ Function over appearance.
✨ Awareness over achievement.
✨ Individual anatomy over idealized shapes.

👇 Have you ever felt pressure to make your poses look a certain way?
