Harbor Love! I love you #DanaPoint I love so many things about this beautiful harbor I thought I would share with you a list of my favorite places to frequent. @iheartyoga_org for the best yoga classes around! With the most incredible owner @elsa_stuart and the best instructors!! You will find me taking these classes: Barre on Monday mornings w/ @sarah_lindenfelser ... Vinyasa w/ @kristian_skorstad on Tuesday evenings Yin w/ @maggiegyogi on Thursday mornings I would be at every class if I could! Check out ALL of them! @coffeeimporters for the very best coffee and bagels! My favorite breakfast is the California bagel Special (no red onions) and a cup of their flavor of the day coffee. @windandsearestaurant for the fun appetizers to go with the incredible view! Get the massive Nachos Grande and share with lots of friends. @jimmys_famous for the best food! Including the best chicken & waffles in the world @coastalkitchendanapoint I love the ambiance and the food here! The Chicken Caesar is so very delicious and it goes perfect with a glass of champagne! My usual drink, especially when I'm out to lunch with my girlfriend's! What are your favorite places in the harbor? What do you get when you go there? . . . . . #iheartyoga #danapointharbor #yoga #orangecounty #yogastudio #yogateacher #teachyoga #sanclemente #yogainoc #warrior2 #yogababes #yogapants #harborlove #heartinmyhands #love #myfavorites

Take time to restore! I’ve been so busy the last couple of months....all good and fun things, yet I have not had much down time. This week I decided to slow down and take care of myself before I breakdown. I took 2 Yin classes Sunbathed at the beach for 1 hour Concentrated on acceptance & patience in the classes I taught And a bit of #retailtherapy thanks to #amazonprimeday2020 I have an #instantpot on the way to my house!!! ... . How do you refill your tank when you feel you are running out of steam but still want/need to keep going? . . #iheartyoga #danapoint #yoga #orangecounty #yogastudio #yogateacher #community #supinetwist #handtobigtoepose #teachyoga #sanclemente #yogainoc #restorativeyoga #danapointharbor

I’m on a yoga high this week from the spectacular Poses & Picnics Event that Maggie and I hosted for the @iheartyoga_org community!! Finally a night to celebrate real joy with great people!! A major part of what I enjoy about being a yoga teacher is the opportunity to connect with so many truly good humans! And that is exactly what occurred on Friday night! I am over the moon happy about how many of you came and shared your smiles, laughter and snacks with us! I’v...e missed these type of experiences so much! Haven’t you If you are like me and you loved every second of the event, let me know!! I think there needs to be more Picnic events like this asap!! Many many thanks to all those that supported this special event!! @maggiegyogi your creative vinyasa flow lead us through some much needed dancing and other powerful movements to start our night off in a very joyful and playful way! All your ideas and passion makes collaborating with you so fun and easy! @brookewolfe_ your beautiful voice and your songs supported us in going through a transformational/emotional experience while I taught the Yin portion of class(most everyone I spoke to shed at least one little tear) @pacificpicnicco you created such ambiance for the evening with your decor. And your generous donation to raffle off a romantic luxury picnic for 2 was greatly appreciated and I'm sure will be very much enjoyed by our winner!! It meant so much to me that @elsa_stuart and so many from the iHeartYoga staff came to help and support us and even stayed to enjoy the evening with us! You are all the best! I'm so lucky to have you as friends!! I feel #blessed and #grateful for so much right now!!!! . . . #yoga #picnic #community #danapoint #danapointharbor #orangecounty #livemusic #sunset #iheartyoga #sociallydistanced

"Backbends are meant to understand the back parts of our bodies. The front body can be seen with the eyes, but the back body can only be felt. That's why I say these are the most advanced postures, where the mind begins to look at the back." #BKSIyengar Oh so many reasons to love #backbends Opens your heart, improves your posture, feels so good and so much more! Get onto your yoga mat this week and do some of your favorite backbends #lowcobra #bhujangasana #upwardfacing...dog #updog #urdhvamukhasvanasana #pigeonpose #ekapadarajakapotasana #yogasplits #splits #hanuman #epicyoga .
