Go touch grass 💚


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 friendship, teaching, caregiving, creativity, community, animals, plants, and presence. Some of us are healing our relationship with motherhood itself. Some of us carry grief beside love. Some of us are learning, slowly and tenderly, how to mother ourselves.

And this week, that thread of care, steadiness, and inner holding leads us naturally into the Taurus new moon.

Taurus brings us back to the earth – to the body, the breath, the ground beneath us, and the inner place that can still hear what is true. After the intensity and illumination of the Scorpio full moon, this new moon asks for regulation first: a slower rhythm, a steadier nervous system, a deeper sense of safety within ourselves. Taurus reminds us that we can only rise as high as we are rooted.

Energetically, this moon may feel like a pause button in a world that keeps getting louder. It asks us to notice where our attention has been scattered, where we have been rushing, seeking, pushing, or looking outside ourselves for certainty. The medicine here is earthy and simple: slow down, simplify, tend to your needs, listen inward, and let the next version of your life grow from a place that feels grounded, embodied, and true.

Our practice meets Thursday evening at 18h30 as we move toward the darkest point of the moon on the weekend. Come practice, breathe, regulate, and root yourself in what is real.

Reserve your spot for Thursday evening’s new moon practice – I’m looking forward to connecting and grounding with this community. And I always send the replay to anyone registered.

Will I see you on this new moon?

Sara

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...
