Find Your Voice

As we step into the heart of the holiday season, it’s easy to get swept up in the swirl of conversations and gatherings. This month, I invite you to pause and notice your words—how they land, how they feel, and the energy behind them. Our focus for December is the throat chakra, the center of truth and authentic expression.

This practice is all about alignment—making sure what you say matches what you truly mean. When your words come from presence and intention, they have the power to uplift, connect, and create real harmony in your world.

I recently got back from a whirlwind trip around Northern California to see family, friends, and be on the land up there. Even though it was a short trip, I ended up staying with and seeing half a dozen friends and family. I found myself telling my story many times… with several variations. It made me notice, which version of my story was I telling to whom and how was I delivering it?

What I was noticed was that I really wanted to be careful/thoughtful about how I was conveying what’s going on in my life right now. Not sugar coat the reality that there are some really hard things coming up in my life right now, and yet… I want to make sure I’m not contributing to the dramatic response. It’s work and it isn’t always pretty sometimes, but let’s work on finding our voice this month.

You’ll feel this theme woven throughout all offerings this month:

* In-person classes: movement and mantra to open and balance the throat chakra.

* Virtual Deep Dive: tune inward, strengthen your voice, and express with more ease and confidence.

* 108 Sun Salutations for Winter Solstice: build heat, endurance, and connection through moving meditation.

* Sedona Yoga & Ayurveda Retreat: give yourself time to calm the body under Sedona’s wide, open skies—nature’s perfect amplifier for your inner voice.

As the year draws to a close, let December be a month of reflection and recalibration—a time to listen more deeply to your inner voice before stepping into a new chapter. I’ll be guiding another Ayurvedic Reset in January, the perfect way to clear out the holiday heaviness and begin the year with clarity, balance, and renewed energy.

I forward to showing you practices that will allow you to find your voice this month!
