There's nothing like the feeling when my students come to me after the class and ask me "Where else do you teach? I wanna come to more of your classes" 🥰
I'm wearing a shirt from @owlhaireddesigns and I love it!! Her beautiful soul clearly shows in all of her creations 💛✨🌱

Am I the only one who gets the chin black & blue from practicing chin stand?? 😅
Don't let your life treat you in ways you don't deserve. What your life gives you is a 100% based on your own belief and self worth✨ No dejes que tu vida te trate como no mereces. Lo que tu vida te da está basado al 100% en tu propia creencia de tu autoestima✨ あなた自身の価値に値しない人生を受け入れないでください。人生があなたに何を与えるかは、100%あなた自身の自尊心によって決まります✨

Happy Happy Birthday to my hot hubby @cap10pa10 🎂🎉🤘🏻😎🎸 I never knew that I could have this much love, trust and happiness in my life and they seem to grow even more each year with you. Thank you for everything you do and everything you've been teaching me. I love you with all my heart 😘💞🌱
I had another lucid dream the other night. As soon as I realized I'm in a dream, I rushed to the nearest person which was a middle aged lady, and asked "what's the meaning of life?"(Because whoever you're talking to in your lucid dream, you are communicating with your subconscious mind) And she started talking about how great deal you can get by shopping at Costco. (Maybe my subconscious mind wants to shop more at Costco? 🤔) So I grabbed the next person and his answer was "We share our experiences and learn from each other." And the next person I grabbed said something more profound but I couldn't stay awake in my dream and I forgot his answer 😭 I was so bummed so I meditated on it the next night. And to my surprise, the answer came back to me. It was "The meaning of life is to Make It." You are the one making the meaning out of your own life. No one else is. What's your thought on that?
Stay cool, everyone! 🌱
With permission I'm posting this message from my student because it really made my day...or I should say all those years of teaching yoga! I'm usually hard on myself whenever my students compliment my classes I force myself to think "oh, she's just being nice" or "that's so sweet, but I don't deserve it." But nowadays I'm finally starting to accept these words. I'm finally seeing myself deserve these compliments and it's a huge change for me. I can't thank my students enough for all their kindness and patience and I'm sending my deepest gratitude to @elissamichelle33 for this thoughtful message which almost made me tear up. I am excited to see our continuous growth with my students 🌱
Happy 16th birthday to this beautiful boy!!🎂 May all your experiences make you stronger, wiser & happier. Love you to bits 💕
Planting stuff. Playing with dirt grounds me🌱
Please please pleeeease don't die on me again 😂
Let the light shine through you. If what you're doing is bringing people joy, that's how you tell you're in the alignment. And that's how you serve the world✨
These days I am truly enjoying teaching yoga without feeling too self-conscious or too awkward with myself. It took me long enough to get to this point where I'm more focused on students and not on my shortcomings. And I'm very grateful to all of my students who are also my genuine teachers whom I deeply respect. Thank you all, you guys are awesome! 🙏🏻🌱
How often do you give yourself compliments? For me, not often enough but I'm slowly learning to do so. When you did something good, recapture the moment, reinforce that accomplished feelings, and repeat doing that good thing. (Recap, Reinforce & Repeat!) When you didn't do so well, take a note what you've learned from it without judging yourself. Happy almost May to everyone! 🌱
When you feel a lack of contentment, it does not indicate a need for something outside of yourself; it indicates a need to become present and connect with something deeper already inside yourself.
Have a happy week 🌱

Thank you @heathersfusion for inspiring me to do this pose 🙏

What's your opinions for hands on adjustment? Since the pandemic I haven't been doing that but recently with student's consent I resumed. I think every being needs a touch and feel the connection with one and another. Have a happy weekend 🙏🌱

Since I hurt my back a while ago, I was always afraid of inversion practices. But I realized that with enough core work and cardio for blood flow, my back is actually ok with it! I'm very happy with my challenge and so excited for my future progress. If you know any good tips for eliminating the arch of the back, I'm all ears!
Have a happy week 🙏✨🌱
"Try to be completely the eye with form, the nose with smell, the ear with sound, and so on. Try to be complete in experience while remaining in just the bare awareness of the sensory object. This will lead to more vivid experience in dreams as well as in waking life." - Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Have a wonderful week everyone! 🌱
Maia : Mommy, can we have the same hairstyle and wear the same clothes when I get bigger?😃
Me : Oh, I would love that! 😍 But I bet you will change your mind when you hit your teens. In fact, you'll probably want to do exact the opposite. 😅
Maia : I won't change my mind. Even if I get embarrassed by wearing the same clothes, I'll never change my mind and I'll always love you.
Kids are so adorable. We'll see how she feels in 4 years. Please don't change! Happy May 💜
