This is the second Love Shack I’ve stayed in this year.

While we didn’t have this week’s weather forecast, we fully soaked in a peaceful week by the river. Cute cabin, good food, relaxing in nature, laughs, snuggles and a good amount of rest 🤍 couldn’t have asked for anything more.

I’m grateful for what this past year has brought into my life, and the last 5 years spent seeking cute nature spots with my love. 😍

This is what solo trip dreams are made of.

Road trip North, a visit to Killbear Provincial Park, greeted by a beautiful deer, a sweet little cabin all to myself, lake dips and 2 full days of Sea Kayak Level 1 Skills with ontarioseakayak in Parry Sound.

This was a refresher for me since I had last taken the course in 2018.

The instructors were incredibly skilled, knowledgeable and fun! Contrary to the forecast, the weather even turned out for us 🌞

I proved to myself I could do it, and my love for the sport has been reawakened!!! 🥳🤍

Grateful I took this time in nature, challenged myself, learnt new skills and met wonderful people ❤️ my soul feels refreshed 😊 Can’t wait for Level 2 and some multi day trips in my future 🥰

This past weekend I had the opportunity to attend the “Seeing clearly through the self” silent meditation retreat held by Stream Yoga + Meditation.

With an excited willingness I handed over my phone Thursday, and stepped into the sacred space of honourable silence, meditation, and dharma talks.

I’ve been on multiple retreats in my life, I’ve even hosted some, all lovely of course, and with good intention, but this was different.

This was not looking at the phone, taking pictures of the delicious food, reading a good book, or journaling my life onto a page. In fact, we were encouraged to do non of that.

This was a time to not have an escape from the corners of my mind, a time to sit through the uncomfortable, to actually witness the repetitive negative dialogue and assumptions that carry on in my head.

At times I cried, I was angry, annoyed, judgemental. I had no one to blame, nowhere to turn my attention away to, nowhere to run.

This was a great gift I’ve been given 🥹

Since my life changed drastically in 2022, I knew I was swimming in grief, sadness, fear and even hate. The road rage, the resentment, the ego. Slowly I’ve come back to yoga practices and integrating self care, and forgiveness, but this experience was a game changer.

I got to see, feel, and acknowledge that my inner dialogue, outward negativity, impatience towards others and situations in every day life were stemming from a deep seed of suffering. A clinging to preferences, striving, and running on empty.

I’m not going to say it was easy, or that I’m untouched by the human experience all of a sudden. But I am astonished at how much compassion grew from going deep within and sharing this experience in community.

I actually reintegrated into “normal life” with patience, and a relief that the suffering is not mine to hold onto. That what another person may do directly or indirectly “to me” is not personal. It’s a reflection of their own suffering. Something that we all experience and have the capacity to understand 🥹🙏

A light has been reignited within my heart ❤️
-phew 😮‍💨 lol and I’m excited to continue on this path ✨beyond grateful

💐NEW CLASS ADDED 💐

✨Feminine Flow: Yoga for Women’s Wellness with me
Starting Tuesdays 6pm in June 💕At the beautiful Yoga by Abbey studio .yogini 🙏

This class is for women of all ages and abilities. No matter your stage of life, these slow and intentional practices offer an opportunity to connect more deeply with your mind, body, and soul.

Together, we will explore gentle movement focused on pelvic floor awareness, hip mobility, core stability, conscious breath, and deep rest to support a profound sense of inner connection and balance.

This class is a nourishing blend of hatha yoga, yin, pranayama, and meditation designed to cultivate both deep inner strength and peacefulness within.

You will be invited to gently explore the energy centres of the body, mantras, and the wisdom of the goddesses as a way of supporting this sacred practice and reconnecting to the true essence and nature of your whole being.

I look forward to sharing this sacred time with you 🌸
