There is no greater power than that of the sun, the moon, and a woman who knows her worth.

Can you relate to the following?

  • You’re tired of feeling the pressure of society that often tells you, as a woman, you need to be constantly running, going, pushing and doing more.  
  • You’re over this idea of hustling that has become synonymous with success, fulfillment and being proactive.  
  • You feel a constant nagging feeling that you “should” be completing tasks, getting things done, checking things off your to-do list.  
  • You feel like your always on the move and rushing around, but not necessarily making a lot of progress or feeling fulfilled
  • You know in your heart that continuing to keep up with this pace will eventually lead to burn out, exhaustion, or even illness if you don't make a change.  
  • You’re craving a more sustainable and natural way of moving through your days.  


You’re not alone. We live in a culture that turns women away from our bodies and away from actively listening to our intuition and understanding our needs. But we ignore those needs at the expense of our well-being.  

I’m here to tell you there’s another way.  

And, it starts with self care…. but not in the way you might think.  

Self-care is not just about taking really great baths that you can post on Instagram (and to my fellow millennials: the answer is yes, I totally do this. I love a good bath! #forthegram).  

It’s about having rituals and practices in place that mimic the rhythms of the natural world. When you follow the natural ebb and flow of energetic highs versus times of deep rest, the risk of burn out or exhaustion becomes a distant memory.  

Let me explain what I mean…  

Can you imagine… when you align with the natural world, you gain the skill of looking inward to see what you really need, to see what's nurturing your body and your mind, so that you can act from a place of fullness, rather than a place where you're exhausted, overwhelmed or lacking resources. You begin to become more intentional in how you move through life within these flowing rhythms and how you engage with everything you do and the result is that everything's not so rushed.

Nature never rushes, yet everything of importance always gets accomplished.  

I want to encourage you to join our revolution in radical self-care.  

I want to encourage you to reframe how you look at success, embrace the process as integral to the outcome of what you do. Because if you're running yourself down, it really doesn't matter what the outcome is, because you'll be really unhappy or excessively tired or unfulfilled.  

Self care is to move away from what what we're "accomplishing" and really focus on who we are and who we're becoming, which is deeply connected to taking care of yourself, mothering yourself, and learning, what do I need to thrive?

The Dark Moon The new moon phase is seldom embraced in our fast paced society. Learn to skillfully navigate this time of turning inward and deep rest and rejuvenation.

Rituals and gleaning wisdom are one of the most powerful tools to cultivate in this phase. Sharing and reflecting on teachings and lessons that have been learned. The light begins to fade again as does the energy in the natural cycle, like the first hints of autumn in the air. Energy is in the natural system is still quite potent but it's time to think about gearing down as the moon heads into it's waning phase. Learn how to skillfully embrace slowing down during this phase in each lunar cycle and watch how therapuedic it is for all layers of your being.  

The Waning Crescent The balsamic moon (that which sooths us) which reminds us that in the darkness, we are healed. Embracing the dark moon, moving into stillness as the heart and soul of yoga. It's time to recuporate and rest. It's time to balance and calm the nervous system. The waning crescent is the phase of moving into the slow lane.
