About that 6am thing ⏰


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 something beautiful about beginning while the day is still quiet – phone asleep, heat still low, nobody asking anything from you yet. It’s a nice feeling!

You might’ve heard me refer to The Imprint as a sadhana – a daily spiritual practice. It’s a way to cultivate a deeper connection to yourself and the wider spiritual world, improve your energy overall, unblock creativity, and tap into your natural intuition.

6am though? I hear you – and, this is a practice made for people with real lives.

Some of you have children, or work late, or are travelling. Some of you are already tired just reading this. Some of you are simply not 6am people, and I love you exactly as you are.

Which is why we have both doors: the live morning practice, and the recording when that’s what your life allows. You can join the live group meditation at 06h00 EDT, choose to come a little earlier at 5h45 for a short optional movement warm-up, or hit up the recording when your day gives you the space. No one dictates what hour you show up for a spiritual practice – just you.

The Imprint is meditation, simplified. I guide each practice, and we meet in community. We’ll work mostly with breath and mantra, with mudra and music too, to help steady the mind, awaken your energy, and bring you back into connection with yourself as summer begins. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

This is also why I love online practice for summer. It can come with you – home, cottage, city, suitcase, wherever you are. Morning if you can. Recording if that’s what works.

The Imprint: Summer begins Monday, June 8

Join for the five-day event, with recordings available through June 14, or hop into my membership and keep practicing through the full season.

Come live, come recorded, come sleepy. Just come, I’ll meet you there. I’d love to practice with you.

Autumn will have its own medicine. This one is for summer – for the heat, the fullness, the joy, the swirl, and the fire we’re tending now.

We start tomorrow! Are you coming?

Big love,
Sara

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...

Hey there, Reader — I’ve got that late summer feeling – how ’bout you? Can I even put my finger on what it is? Camp is over for Kobe, but school hasn’t started yet. It’s the in-between of the in-between. Summer has always felt like a pattern interruptor to me, when our usual routines take a backseat and the days stretch differently. And yet, in this mid-August moment, it’s the everyday that feels especially sacred – a day by the lake, simple pleasures, eating something perfectly in season. My...

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...
