reminder: it’s not my job to live up to your standards and it’s not your job to live up to mine.

I’ve started laying on sidewalks. It’s like laying in the grass, only more firm and less itchy.

PS — I’m teaching write & flow Tuesday’s at 12pm PST via Zoom on @zudayoga. You can reserve your spot on www.zudayoga.com, on their MBO, or visit my website in my bio.

Write & Flow is Write Club with a little movement to connect to our bodies before we journal.
It’s $10 drop-in or free for Zuda members.

Join me anywhere you are in the world and let’s take our hearts, pen to paper.

Last week, I was a guest on @kristaripma’s podcast. I share my take on how to stay grounded through times of uncertainty. We chat about influencer responsibility and not feeding panic, how I’m parenting at this time, dumping your baggage on others, why it’s vital to have boundaries and be willing to walk away from business and people that no longer feel sacred. “As an influencer, you have a responsibility to not share bulls*t for the sake of attention…” Oof. We went there!

Have a listen to today’s episode and subscribe to @authenticaudience on iTunes. One of the best ways to support podcasts is to subscribe to them. @kristaripma is one of my marketing gurus and she’s always been an advocate for me to go out and do big, scary, audacious things. By following and listening to her, you can’t help but be inspired to do life in big ways.

You can find the podcast on my website (under move with me) and linked on my stories.

Insert your joy here. I have found myself a few times this week proclaiming amongst friends that I feel really freaking good. Joyful, in fact. There are moments when I feel like I “shouldn’t” feel this way during such times. Absolute nonsense! Fuck off should, I mean it. And send grace to those that attempt to should you.

By god, if you can tap into your joy, please do. And please share it with others. If we have the capacity to give, then we must give.

What moments of joy have found you this week?

For me:
- teaching my son to hula hoop, so fun!
- daily dance parties
- soul posse sneaks
- getting outside, making out with trees
- reading & meditating w/ Dr. Joe Dispenza
- yoga twice a day, breathwork
- watching our garden grow
- helping studios and teachers all over the world feel confident to create online classes
- extra sleep
- making art, seeing art everywhere
- feeling grateful to be alive

Share yours below so we can feel your joy with you.

I’ve shared FREE online classes on my website, link is in my bio.

As of right now, my studio classes are beginning to cancel. I don’t know what tomorrow holds, or even the next hour. I’m doing my best to not worry. My son believes we are on spring break. We are creating a temporary normal. Extra snuggles, more sleep, not rushing our schedules, playing and staying home like one of those storms that would roll in when I was a child. We are safe. We are home. We are praying and playing.

This is our normal for now. We can do this. We know we can. If anything, things like this show us how we can come together, take care of each other.

I’ll be creating more online classes so you can keep showing up on your mat. Let me know how I can support you. I’m here.

This is our temporary normal. We will be okay. More than okay.

Everyone is doing their best, with the information they have, in the best way they know how. I have to remind myself when I’m met with others that don’t share the same views. All we have is the present moment. What we can do in the now, how we can be in the now. How can we use our gifts to help each other?

I am the oldest of 5. Since I was a child, I have always remained calm and collected in high stress situations. My instinct was always to scoop up the kids and get them to safety in emergencies. Like when our house caught fire or when my siblings needed stitches (the list is long). It’s why I became a lifeguard as a teenager, because I could stay calm in times of crisis and I wanted to help others. I know these are a couple reasons why I teach yoga.

We are in a time of freak out for many people. We all live in different realities. Panic and scarcity is a real threat for some. If you have the ability to stay calm and collected during times like these, share it with others. If you have skills, extra food, space, toilet paper — share with others. If you have the capacity to give, then give.

My prayer is that we set aside hyperactivity and remember our humanity. Keep our immunities up (as my friend and health guru, @scott_estrada says, “health is about stacking odds in our favor”), give people solutions to lowering stress. If you’ve got more tips, please share below. Or write a prayer, mantra, words of loving-kindness for others to take comfort.

Hugging you all. Be well, friends.
