Somatic work — the practice of reconnecting with the body through movement, sensation, and awareness — is a way back home. It asks us to slow down and begin to feel again. Through intentional movement and by tuning into our five senses, we start to remember what it means to be present.

The Eight Limbs of Yoga, described in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, are not rules to follow, but pathways to remember who you are and how to live in deeper alignment with your true nature.

Compassion is one of the most profound teachers we have — not only for how we treat others, but for how we relate to ourselves. In a world that often celebrates control, perfection, and constant self-improvement, compassion asks us to soften. It invites us to meet our experience with honesty, tenderness, and acceptance.

Boundaries are not walls — they are the architecture that allows our energy, body, and spirit to thrive. Many of us grew up without healthy boundaries, taught to please, to overextend, or to stay quiet to keep peace. Without realizing it, we learned to abandon ourselves. Over time, this can leave us exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from our own center.
