Saturday’s are for Surrender...My day of Sacred Sanctuary so I can keep giving my Heart to the world. But honestly I am living a life of daily surrender now...softening my spine into the flow of the all. Becoming putty in the hands of the Divine as my practice. It feels so juicy to let life hold me up, and stop trying to hold myself up. To be soft often. It feels so good.
.
Yesterday I sweat like a mad woman in 5 Rhythms - one of my portals into power and self. And then I went to my 2nd temple. The trees. The mountains. The ocean. For magical mystical musings all day on a blanket on a hill. Talking to the birds. Phones away until this moment.
.
Stepping out of computer land, to do lists, and into moments of Infinity is VITAL to our health and well being...Step into poetry. Step into nature. Step into dance. Step into kissing. Swimming. Making love. Writing on paper. Cooking with an old record playing, wearing a silk dress. Laying on a blanket staring at the sun.
.
These are the moments the Gods speak to you. The muses come to whisper in your ears. The moments your heart becomes a hot air balloon and lifts you to the sky.
.
As life becomes more chaotic and the ego tricks us into believing “this is important” or “this goal is essential” we must always step back and breathe and listen and quiet. Remembering the PRESENT is what is important in the end.
.
Hope you find pockets of surrender today. Pockets of pleasure. Of recharging yourself deeply.
.
With Love ❤️

Leading a workshop in this psychedelic light show of a room last night at @unplugmeditationla was a delight!! Art meets theatre meets healing meets meditation meets connection based practice?!!! YES.🤘🏼🔥❤️
.
If you told me 18 year old me this is what healing and meditation and art looked like for my career I would have been like 🧐🤔 But the art unfolds moment to moment and I keep being surprised! When you surrender to your dharma it just FLOWS in the most interesting of ways.
.
This last week I lead work at @ramayoganewyork, online for our hundreds of Moon Club members, at @freepeople LA, and last night at Unplug. 💥Monday @iamsahararose and I are recording a JUICY sexuality sacral chakra class and next weekend my Mentorship Group goes into 2 days of tantric work together! 🙌🏼🗽Teaching at @jameshotels Soho June 7💃🏻Then Shibari with @miss_true_blue in SF.🌉🐍 July it’s retreat at @kripalucenter! 🏔🔥Then I’ll be off to teach at Burning Man! 🔥Links in bio to know more!
.
The train is moving fast these days- I suppose it’s more like a rocket to the Moon. And I am 1000 times grateful and loving it. My new clients are doing plant medicine work in our programs together and deep tantric connection work and making their healing journeys full of art and magic. It’s so so so fun.
.
Thank you for Goddesses @gabyherstik and @sabrinaelisabetha for all the love last night in the room ❤️

Why do you engage in spiritual practice? Why do you spend time becoming more light? Letting love seep out through your pores? Letting your Heart blossom out so that it’s a spotlight in the dark? Letting your pauses becomes moments where you dive into infinite pools of creativity and wisdom? Why NOT engage in every moment in your life as your spiritual practice?
.
Am I dressed above for “spiritual practice?” Am I wearing yoga pants? Holding sage? Nope. Because my whole life is my practice! Dressing like a tropical flower and letting my light shine is my practice. Walking down the street as a radiant being of Love is my practice. Making each time I cry be a work of art is my practice.
.
If your “practice” of daily meditating or gratitude listing or yoga only stretches through a short period of time each morning then you’re missing the point. Because when you poop it’s your yoga! When you bleed it’s your practice! When you laugh. Cry. Smile. Pitch an idea at a meeting. Go on a date. Each moment is an opportunity for your awakening! The idea it’s separate is a laughable illusion!
.
When you surrender to the fact everything you do is for your awakening - the magic carpet ride of life gets way more fabulous. Trust me.
.
Tonight I will share more about Moments of Connection as Tools for your Spiritual Practice and Awakening at @unplugmeditation Weho. Link in bio for tickets!

Happy Friday 🦋

LA! Tomorrow night at @unplugmeditation...
.
•Practice letting love ooze through you eyes as blessings for the world. •Letting your words become magical beacons of your message. •Letting your presence be enough to enliven or quiet a room. Your gaze be powerful enough to soften even the hardest of hearts! •Play with your superpowers! •Take your magical mystical skills off the meditation cushion and into Connection- into moments in coffee shops, clubs, yoga classes, airplanes!
.
I went to acting school when I was 18 to learn embodiment- Breath, sound and movement. I laid on the floor making groans and moans. I gazed into stranger’s eyes. I learned to stand tall. I learned to CONNECT and be PRESENT.
.
I’ve been practicing presence for a LONG time. And I wanna share with you some ways to make the delivery of your MAGICAL SELF simple! So you don’t get too nervous or anxious and forget your magic when you’re under the gun. So your presence has an IMPACT. In meetings. On dates. And simply as you walk down the street.

“Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.” -Rumi.
.
I love helping people make art out of their personal transformation and healing. I love watching people rise into the next level of their evolution. I love holding hands and hearts all day. Laughing. Crying. Screaming. Shouting. Choosing possibility over old narratives. Choosing expansion over fear. This is the beauty of what I do.
.
Over the years what I “do” has morphed in its external outfit. But the truth is that when I was 19 reciting Margaret Atwood poetry onstage wearing all white and spitting fake blood onto a white canvas and then pulling red rose petals out of my white panties and throwing them on myself as an ode to my womb, to my power, to my magic- I was very much letting the beauty I love be what I do.
.
And it’s very much the same now. I teach others, women to spit out the pain and poison and bathe themselves in those metaphorical rose petals from within.
.
I ask you to stand taller. Speak louder. Live brighter. Be more real. Stop accepting mediocrity. Be messy. Exposed! Alive!
.
Why? Because this is how I live my life. And the beauty in it is enormous. It’s not an easy path. But as a wise man said to me yesterday “It’s not easy, but it can be simple.”
.
Wishing you a day of simple returning to your Heart, your Breath, you Truth, and the life you know is possible under all the layers of conditioning.
.
Be a Rebel and relentlessly pursue the possibilities of what’s out there for you! Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
.

LA! Friday night I will be leading a workshop at @unplugmeditation in Weho about ⚡️Conscious Connection⚡️ I will be leading practices and conversations around...How to cultivate more presence + magnetism, how to experience friendship and relationships as tools for awakening, creating intentionality in the way we relate, seeing relationship as a mirror for where we are in our own evolution, and eschewing mediocrity and finding ecstasy in the way we relate. And more! It will be experiential. Partner and group work.
.
Expect to leave feeling ALIVE + EXCITED 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🔥

I realize lately I’ve been looking very ladylike in my photos. Which is only part of me. So here is me with a little more Wildness leaking from my eyes and womb. Day 1 of my cycle. Alive. Bleeding alive...
.
And if you know me you know I am equal parts lady and equal parts wild messy beast. I laugh loud. I burp loud. And this Taurus season I will allow and resurrect my feral Goddess and let chocolate drip down my face, laugh loud, let my belly hang out, and not give a fuck about looking tidy and perfect but instead look like the fecund juicy Georgia peach that I am.
.
My 77 year old Taurus Brazilian Father- for all the 34 years that I’ve known him -EVERY time he eats chocolate exclaims “MMMM this is ORGASMIC!” Without fail. EVERY time.
.
My Taurus mom would have candles lit and Enya playing, even if we were broke and could only afford Kraft Mac ‘N Cheese- we would do it Taurus style- with beauty, and ALWAYS with desert.
.
Though both my parents have both been through major traumas, their commitment to beauty and pleasure, and their stubbornness in their pursuits was always bigger than their woes.
.
Even in the throes of a bankruptcy I assure you Mom’s nails were manicured.
.
Taurus says “Fuck it! Despite all the odds I WILL enjoy this life and be stubborn as hell about it if you cross me!”
.
Today’s modern world vilifies pleasure at times- we aim for efficiency and modesty, but there is value in enjoying pleasure! You became a magnet for more of it! People run to be close to you. To be inspired at your grand outfits, the way you eat each dinner like it was your last, the way- despite pain and trauma or upset- you surrender to pleasure- letting your pleasure be bigger than your pain.
.
I am ecstatic that Uranus is moving into Taurus and that today is a New Moon in Taurus. AFTER 7 YEARS in Aries where we were all working on “WHO AM I” and the “I AM” now it’s shifting and it’s gonna feel yummy I just know it!
.
Link in stories to a ritual on @mindbodygreen. Live ritual tonight in @freepeople Santa Monica. You will leave with your feelings of PLEASURE ignited.

.
