Hey pals!

I shift from our usual programming to share an experience I enjoyed with my good friend Janine a few months ago. She invited me to her YouTube channel to explore what sacred means, and to share something special with her community. The series is aptly titled Show n’ Tell.

Janine is a yogi, mother, and Somatic practitioner. We met in our local yoga community four years ago and connected around the many similarities in our journey. I was so excited to be on the show when she invited me, and I began contemplating the assignment with glee.

Reminiscent of our kindergarten assignment of the same name the series aims to showcase all the beautiful and significant things her guests want to highlight in the world and bring different perspectives to an exploration of the sacred.

What came through, to share, were some tools that have aided me in grounding and beautifying my practices. I decided to share them in a particular order that aligned with the unfolding of my path. The journey would start with the Holy Water, then move to the Herbal Body Oil, culminating with Flower Essence-infused water.

It was a beautiful sunny day when we, arrived at Janine’s home for the video. Greg and Bear joined me and played in her family’s lovely backyard while we recorded. She was incredibly energetic and buzzed with the playful energy of creativity. We caught up a bit about life happenings and after some technical setups and sound checks, we started recording.

Our conversation answered the essential question but also covered how we move in and out of practices seasonally, how it takes mothers 3 years to restore our mineral supply after pregnancy (!), and the importance of increased support from the community & ourselves as we move through our experience. It was so engaging that the time just flew by. After recording we shared some insights about recognizing that our platforms have a life of their own and embracing our roles as vessels that bring that life into reality.

It was an enriching experience and I am so happy to share it with you. The video went live this week and is available here. Please check out Janine’s channel, enjoy the video, and maybe watch a few more from the series.

Till next time💚
