A smile is the universal language of love and connects our hearts for a moment in time. We are all intertwined. Smile at someone new today. 😊

We are more the same than different. But so often we focus on how we are different, and in that creates resistance.

I love being a woman of the world. I love seeing humanity in all different forms. I love seeing smiles, connections, dance, music, food and art. We all like the same things even when they are different geographically.

We really are connected. Human. 💛

This is my 3rd time to Morocco. After the first time coming here, I wasn’t sure if I would go back. It was my first time being in a Muslim country and I had a hard time understanding or resonating with the culture.

But I decided to change my perspective. If we strip down the dogma of religion, we can see that we all want connection. Further, we can see how rules, conditions and dogma can hold us back from that. In fact, it can steer the entire culture in repression of connection.

Ultimately, we all want love. So instead of looking through the lense of misunderstanding, we can look through the lense of compassion and empathy. Further, we can be a student of the world helping us gain deeper consciousness/awareness of what happens in the world and as a collective.

I remain open and curious to it all. To learn, to grow, to empathize, to love even deeper. And along the way I get to experience beautiful art, brilliant textures, vibrant colors, beautiful terrain, delicious food and being a human of the world. It’s quite remarkable and I’m so grateful to have these experiences.

We are all intertwined.

For the past 3 days before my yoga retreat, I met

For the past 3 days before my yoga retreat, I met with my business consultants for an offsite business retreat to curate and cultivate my vision for next year and beyond.

We went to the Palais Claudio Bravo, a palace in Taroudant Morocco. We ultimately had the entire palace to ourselves. I felt like a Queen. It was majestic✨✨

During our breaks, we walked the grounds and wandered through the art and imagination of this artist.

Every human has the desire to create. This is how we feel productive, alive, contribution, and legacy.

It inspired me. Being in that environment of royalty (the Queen of Iran once lived there…how timely) and art elevated my imagination, my drive to create, and reminded me we are all intertwined and inspire each other.

Watch out @shefayogavenice @shefayogaroosevelt @hauteyoga, it’s go time!

Now time for my yoga retreat! 💛

When you are caught between a rock and a hard place…trust yourself!

Hard decisions. They are scary. They are uncertain. They might mean we might fail. We might lose. We might make someone not like us. We might hurt someone’s feelings. We might be rejected. We might not be loved.

These are the reasons why we don’t trust ourselves.

But what would happen if we actually did trust ourselves in our decisions?

We would see our fears are lies. That we didn’t die, we actually were right all along. And even if it was not the expected outcome, we learned from it.

Your heart knows. Trust it.

When I first came to LA from Seattle to scout locations for a yoga studio people would ask me what I was doing. When I told them “opening a yoga studio”, I got a lot of opinions. “The market is saturated “, “good luck with that it’s so hard to make it in LA” and “Aw that’s so cute, you and everyone else”.

It tested my confidence fiercely. In fact, I started to doubt myself. But then I remembered, these people don’t know me, they don’t know my experience and my vision. They don’t know my strength.

So I said f*ck you to that noise and trusted myself. I knew it could do it. And I did.

@shefayogavenice is everything I manifested it would be.

Trust yourself.

We are so conditioned to look to others for the answers…when the answer is right there inside you.

No one has your experience, no one has been through what you’ve been through in the exact way. We must learn to trust our knowledge, our experiences and our intuition. Fear of failure often derails us but if we can defy those fears we see we knew all along.

What keeps us from transforming? FEAR!

We fear change, uncertainty, judgment, rejection, loss of love…

If we can commit to evolution and growth in spite of all those fears, transforming is even more empowering and it will also show us our fears are most often lies.

Sit in the throne of your power! You are ready. Go for it🙌

Did you know that if you try to help a butterfly 🦋 break free from its cocoon, it will die?!

Nature teaches us, in order to transform, we ourselves have to do the work. No one else can do it for us.

But that’s why it’s so beautiful💙

I’ve committed my life to constant growth and evolution, transforming over and over again.

I was stuck in Leah version 1.0 until I was 32 years old. I was caught up in conditioning, societal norms, and my unhealed trauma.

Then I found yoga.

It helped me to wake up. It gave me the quiet to finally listen and the courage to finally move toward my truth and freedom within.

I am now Leah version 7.0. I have transformed 7 times since then and I am so different from who I used to be.

I’m revealing. I’m shedding. I’m opening. I’m healing. I’m free.

I can’t wait to see Leah version 20.0😊

I feel most balanced when I focus on my inner self

I feel most balanced when I focus on my inner self, my energy. We have 7 energy centers that run from the base of our spine to the crown of our head. When one is excessive or depleted, we become out of balance and it manifests in things like addiction, eating disorders, lack of sleep, sickness like ulcers and other disease.

It takes investigation and self study to remedy this. Looking at the past, habits, and the cycles and patterns from our ancestors.

It’s transformed my life focusing and understanding these energies. I myself can bring myself back to balance, back to harmony.

My energy used to be SO out of balance. We all ha

My energy used to be SO out of balance. We all have masculine and feminine energy. They are both equally important but most of us aren’t tapped into our feminine energy because it’s vulnerable, intuitive, creative, sensual, non linear and we are conditioned to be masculine (at least in the western world). Masculine energy is essential. It’s our bravery and our strength but when out of balance it’s aggressive and often triggers fear and inadequacy.

Previously when I was in the corporate world and through survival of my traumas, I was over masculine creating controlling, over fiery, hard, and rigid behavior and energy (kind of like this rock in the photo).

It wasn’t until I tapped into my feminine divine where I started to not only feel balanced but in harmony with myself. It was then where I saw my true power. Through intuition, nurture, compassion, open hearted, loving energy, along with my bravery and strength, my life started to transform and heal. Through that true freedom and peace came because my energy became more balanced. Closer to love. (The rock looks and feels better with feminine energy leaning into it doesn’t it!).

Often times we focus on balancing external circumstances: balanced diet, work-life balance etc. But what if we focused on balancing emotions?

We are a culture of fear and therefore we’ve become out of balance with fear. Many of our decisions, thoughts and actions are fear based.

We’ve got to shift to default to love. Living from our hearts with purpose, truth, compassion and kindness. Believing we are abundant and worthy of love and are enough as we are.

If we do this, we will be more balanced in our whole life.

Sometimes we are quick to pass judgment on ourselves and others.

We have to be willing to go deeper. Ask questions. Have conversations. Be curious. Be vulnerable. Look within. And be a mirror.

We are reflections of each other if we go deeper.
