Hi, Reader — Happy Virgo season! It’s my Sun sign, so I love this time of year!! Virgo is methodical and pragmatic, and I already feel its influence over me. I’ve been getting the details in order for my fall travel, and looking ahead to 2027, organizing what’s to come and settling back into studio life. Maybe you saw my retreats email! Virgo in action. This weekend has been so fun – did you come say hi at the Imagine Monkland festival in NDG? What true joy to connect with people and see so...

Hi, Reader — August is cottage time for me! My family’s annual bubble. A slower time by the lake, with bonfires, Ry, Kobe and Liam, and neighbours – and the particular rhythm that only late summer drums. No wonder it’s an entire separate season in Traditional Chinese Medicine! (I’m also headed to New York for a very quick weekend trip, which I’m really looking forward to!) For me, though, August has always been a month for leaning into family before September begins and everything goes back...

Hi, Reader — It feels good to be home in July! Back in regular rhythms, practices and teachings. Back in the studio and the everyday life that holds me. As you may know if you’ve been around these parts a while, I’ve been paying closer attention to my summer energy in recent years, and really taking care not to burn myself out. July can carry so much action and passion, and I can feel how much my body has been asking for rest. Especially after travel! So I’ve been returning to The Imprint...

Hi, Reader — I am home. After a rich and beautiful stretch of travel through Europe in France and Spain, I am back in Montreal, back to the studio, and back to daily life. Travel is such a gift. It takes us out of our patterns and reminds us that the world is wider than we usually think. Our routines and habits give us important structure. They can also keep our world small. There are other rhythms, other ways to move through a day, other ways to belong to time. We must make room for those...

Hi, Reader — I’m back from Lac Brome, and landing here – for just a minute – before leaving for France with Kimiko! That’s why I offered The Imprint a week early this season, rather than trying to battle time zones and come on live with you next week. And as always, the timing feels perfect in its own way. This summer’s Imprint shares some beautiful themes with the upcoming Gemini new moon. Inside The Imprint, we are working with a meditation I affectionately call the Chicken Dance 🐔 – ahaha...

Hi, Reader — I know. It’s early. If you saw 6am and immediately thought, “Sara, no!” – I really do understand! Mind you, I’m just headed back from Lac Brome – an amazing weekend with a group of beautiful women – and we practiced early Saturday and Sunday. It was eased along by the feeling of community, and the wonderful early light we have this time of year. (Not to mention the fairy tale setting in an ancient forest!) I’ve continued to offer a live morning practice for years because there’s...

Hi, Reader — Summer always seems to arrive with a hundred invitations. I’m already feeling this one! How about you? Longer evenings and impromptu meet-ups. Travel plans – mine start soon! Family visits and dinners outside. The need to be in nature, near water, under trees, and with people you love. The sudden desire to do all the things, all at once because the season feels so precious and so short. I love that about this season! And I also know how quickly it can become a time where we lose...

Hi, Reader — I’m in NYC still, and I love it so much. This city is so full of life. It’s a wonderful place to be this time of year, too – late spring, right before everything tips into summer. I’m so happy Montreal is feeling a bit of it as well, even with those few cooler days sneaking in. The flowers are out, evenings are brighter, the city is in bloom! Spring gives us that spark. And summer? It brings the fire! The desire to play outside all day – and evening! – to say yes to invitations,...

Hi, Reader — I spent this past weekend immersed in Kundalini at Morpho Bleu with a group of women who showed up with so much openness and presence. I feel a mix of good-tired, vitally awake and happy! I am deeply honoured to teach this material. Every time I return to it, I remember how faceted it is – and how, in the end, it is so simple, powerful, and effective. This week’s Lunar Magic happens once in a blue moon! After our Scorpio Full Moon earlier this month, this Sag moon is that rare...
