Hi, Reader — Last weekend’s Mother’s Day practice with Kimiko was so beautiful: a room full of amazing women, and holding space for the mothers within us and around us. Through the lens of Kundalini yoga, Mother’s Day can open into something wider than one role or one relationship. It becomes an honouring of the mothering current itself – the part of us that nourishes, protects, creates, listens, steadies, and holds life as it changes. Some of us mother children. Some of us mother through...

Hi, Reader — Early May, and the city is literally in bloom! I love it, and not just because it’s also my name!! 🌸🌸 I love seeing the cherry blossom trees in NDG – they are so iconic for this time of year. And Mother’s Day is coming up this weekend, too. I have to admit, I’m a bit funny about Mother’s Day. I LOVE all the holidays. Going wild with decorations is my jam, the fun and whimsy of it all just lights me up. And with Mother’s Day, there is also something about the Hallmark aspect that...

Hi, Reader — Here we are in the last week of April! We’ve had beautiful sunshine, I got to share a wonderfully intimate Imprint gathering on Saturday morning (after a fun and slightly rowdy Katonah session before!), the Habs are hanging in there, I’m feeling much better – and in my little corner of the world, things feel very alive right now. I’ve said it before: I love this time of year! Renewal, hope, fresh inspiration. Things are blooming, and there’s real desire in the air – a forward...

Hi, Reader — I just got back from a quick trip to LA for a special event – an all-day Kundalini deep dive devoted to meditation, breath, focus, and being fully with yourself. It was intense and expansive! The kind of practice that clears out a lot of mental noise and leaves you feeling clear, awake, and very alive! I’m back in Montreal and still vibrating, just in time for this upcoming Aries New Moon 🌒 → Join me Thursday evening at 18h30 EDT Aries opens the astrological year, and this new...

Hi, Reader — Do you feel some spring energy moving through you yet? I plunged into the season wholeheartedly! The Imprint was such a powerful way to begin stirring this yang energy, and I’m still doing the meditations every morning – it’s a good one. My vision board session on the equinox was also so much fun, thank you for joining, if you were there. We dreamt up some inspiring and soulful visions to draw on for the season ahead. This week, I’ve been settling back into Montreal life....

Hi, Reader — I’ve just come back from a family trip to Costa Rica, and I’m feeling that particular energy of transition very strongly right now – that sense of returning, re-entering, and standing at the edge of something new. The Pisces New Moon comes in the final stretch before the astrological new year, and it feels like such an important threshold. With eclipse season still echoing through the atmosphere, there can be a sense that things are shifting, even if you can’t quite name it all...

Hello there, Reader! The Imprint begins tomorrow! Spring is always one of my favourite sessions, the rising energy and more daylight always gives me fuel. If you already know you’re in, get registered now so you have everything ready, as there’s a slight change in how you’ll access the recordings this time. → Join The Imprint And if you’re new – or returning after a while – here’s a little glimpse of what the experience is actually like: For five days, we move through the practice together....

Hey, Reader — So excited that The Imprint begins Monday! This is a good one, four simple breath-focused meditations. Hope to see you live at 06h00, or on the recordings. One of the things I hear most often from people about meditation is this: “I can’t meditate! I’ve tried before… but I couldn’t stick with it.” Very often, it’s not because someone can’t meditate. It’s because the way meditation is often taught asks us to do something very difficult: sit still, quiet the mind, remove...

Hi, Reader — Time change in Montreal (and other eastern time zones). Do you feel it in your body? I’m still in Costa Rica with the family, but heading home next week. I’m happy to return to longer days and more light, even if the weather is still unpredictable. March in Montreal is wild! We can be basking in warm sunshine one day and bracing for an ice storm the next. These times of year always remind me why I’m fascinated by the idea of seasonal living. One of my teachers is known for...
