Stability gives softness a place to land. In relationship, when I’m met with presence, steadiness, and care, that strength allows my heart to greet the other with openness. 
Lately, I’ve been feeling the quiet bliss of this dynamic (in myself and in relationship with another). 
I love slower practices with presence and care — but I’ve sped up the video for the sake of flow. Blocks aren’t just about making a pose more accessible — they can build strength and awareness.
 When I extend the bottom arm forward, using the block, a beautiful dynamic unfolds:
an internal anchoring and strengthening through the lower side that allows the upper side of the torso to expand with grace and strength. The openness and expansion above are amplified by the strength and support below — internally in the body, externally with the block. Here, I find the centre. The centre of relationship. @livecorten Tuesdays, Power Flow (Warm) at 9:30 am #openheartsafeheart #somaticwisdom #yogaforanopenheart #sacredremembrance #nervoussystemhealing #yogateacherlife #embodiedrelationship #yogapractice #intelligentsequencing #creativeyogaflow #yogaforhealing

Perfection is effortlessness.
The Sacred is perfect.
And yet, the Sacred simply IS. My Achilles tendons and calves have always made it difficult to bring my heels down in certain yoga poses.
Baby Grasshopper (shown at the end of this video) is one of them.
And still, I find beauty in this pose (my own way), even with my heel lifted. PERFECTION IS… Borderless.
A deep acceptance.
Not flawless, but whole.
Not controlled, but deeply true.
The Sacred dancing through form,
revealing itself in every “seemingly” imperfect edge made holy. EFFORTLESSNESS IS… Moving from inner alignment.
An offering free from friction.
The Sacred flowing without resistance - whole, honest, and true. ✨ Perfection is effortlessness. I invite you to explore this space with me - on the mat, in stillness, or within your own sacred becoming. @movati.burlington @movati.athletic @lifeatmovati Wednesdays, Hot Power & Flow at 12:00 pm Thursdays, Hot Power & Flow at 4:30 pm Thursdays, Hot Yin at 5:45 pm Sundays, Hatha at 9:00 am #sacredembodiment #sacredperfection #effortlessness #yogasequence #soulfulmovement #spiritualpractice #tantrayoga #embodiedwisdom #poweryoga #yogateacherlife #consciousmovement #radicalacceptance #yogaflow #sacredself #embodiedyoga #sacredremembrance

💫 Endings: Connection & Letting Go 💫 Ancient spirals etched across cultures remind us of life’s cycles—birth, life, death, and rebirth—each turn carrying wisdom for new beginnings. Yet, we often overlook Turiya, the fertile space of transformation—pure consciousness that transcends and underlies these cycles. Our relationships mirror this rhythm, evolving through roles and experiences. As we move from lover to friend, student to peer, teacher to friend, or let go entirely, we release the past with gratitude, and linger in the silent potential they hold for growth. 🌿✨ Reflecting on the connections that have come full circle, I share seven insights drawn from endings and the silent space of Turiya, guiding me to honour each encounter as part of a greater journey as a yoga teacher.

In her moments of stillness, she honoured the countless women who came before her, her ancestors, who worked without a pause. She also gave permission to the past versions of herself that didn’t allow for rest, to finally rest. She whispered, “You are seen. You are honoured. You can rest.” ✨ Rest. Reconnect. ✨ 🌼 MY 65-HOUR RESTORATIVE YOGA TEACHER TRAINING STARTS SEP 28TH! 🌼 This will be my third year running it and the depth keeps gets richer.
