Urban Yogi

I am super excited to join the weekly lineup @soulofyoga Tuesdays at 6pm for Yoga of Recovery! These online classes (+recordings) draw from Vedic wisdom to see our addictive habits in a new light, understand what we’re really seeking and use our energy in more life-giving ways. This is a huge and awesome subject that we’ll explore a week at a time. I’ll be integrating @yogaofrecovery teachings by Durga Leela, who rocks, with postural yoga, subtle yoga and rest.... It’s been years since I’ve offered public yoga classes. These teachings resonate very deeply with me and are so relevant to the world right now that I just have to share them. Everyone is welcome! Join me on Tuesdays (aka Suzdays) from 6-7pm PST with @thesoulofyoga If you can’t join the livestream, you can view recordings for 2 days after class. Thank you. I hope to see you in class soon. Endless love from my heart to yours. See more

Post-Equinox greetings and news! Susana is on maternity leave, summoning healthy prana shakti for birth Also, we’re letting go of the name Urban Yogi!

Today is the International Day of Peace. We can all participate through 24 hours of non-violence, ahimsa. Violence exists on a spectrum, from the subtlety of thoughts to direct harm inflicted on self and others. In the spirit of yoga, let us inquire, in the moment of ill intent, How can I treat myself the way I wish to be treated right now? The great peacemakers of the world taught us the Golden Rule, to treat others the way we wish to be treated. It takes incredible streng...th and discipline to uphold this simple creed. That’s why the people who have done it really well are such historical figures. Strength and discipline are honed with practice. Yoga, as a complete system beyond poses, is a healing balm for the pains of abuse. It gives us a process for acknowledging the hurt, maintaining healthy boundaries and liberating ourselves from suffering by intentionally directing our energy to that which we truly long for. We are all capable of this. We need not go it alone. New resources are listed on our website. Let peace begin with me. Let this be the moment now... #internationaldayofpeace #omshanti See more

Beautiful things happened when we stopped buying gas to teach yoga and hired an artist @_smilelauren #dhyanamudra

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds. - Robert Nesta Marley #moksha #liberation #juneteenth @nuwarhol

I believe rest, sleep, naps and slowing down can help us all wake up to see the truth of ourselves. Rest is a healing portal to our deepest selves. Rest is care. Rest is radical. When your worth has been falsely tied to how much you produce, resting becomes an act of resistance. ~ Tricia Hersey @thenapministry via @yogajournal

Our fave new thing: a search engine that finances the planting of trees worldwide @ecosia thanks for supporting healthy breathing!

In the unitive state of being that is Yoga, conflict arising from our perception of the other dissolves. Realizing this in society means that your struggle is my struggle. With humility, empathy, and a burning desire for peace in all our relations, Urban Yogi stands with our Black community now and always. Join Susana in solidarity with #blacklivesmatter this Friday in La Jolla May the sea of our togetherness help us remember #weareone

Satsang = the company of the true. Tonight at 7 PST, I join forces online with @yogaofrecovery and @thesoulofyoga to explore reorienting addictive behaviors and moving toward that which we truly long for. If isolation has increased self-destructive tendencies for you, or you simply wish to be in the company of people using their life force constructively, join us.
