Butte County where I live is currently experiencing one of California’s worst fires. My friends and colleagues have lost their homes, and my heart is heavy for the loss our community is suffering. Please consider donating to help victims of the fire, or reaching out to me to find out more ways you can lend support.

Hi 🙏💛🌹 Drinking my morning coffee and reflecting on the blessings that surround me. 🤗 So much love. So much support. 💛 I'm heading back to Chico today and I'm gathering my strength. Thank you thank you thank you all for having my back. Keep those uplifting thoughts coming! 💛 #buttestrong #hope #prayforparadise #love #community
I surrender 🙏😭💙💔 #yoga #buttestrong
Yoga connects us to awesome humans 😍💛 This practice is all about community, being there for each other🙏 Feeling grateful I had the chance to take class from @sacyogawithjules last night and see @valerieyagerskincare ❤️ thank you to everyone who's showing up and supporting me through this difficult week💛 #yoga #aliveinthefire #community
Starting this weekend and next week, I'll be teaching yoga and meditation in Chico 🙏😊💪❤️ It has been a long time since I've held space for others in this way and now's the time. 🙏💛 My goal is to contribute to victims of the Camp Fire in this way, to bring a little bit of peace to anyone who is willing to show up. Tears will be welcome while we practice. You don't need to know how to "do yoga." You don't need to be flexible or in shape, you just need a willingness to slow down for a bit and the rest will fall into place✨ We are all exhausted, overwhelmed, uncertain. We need some deep breaths and a chance to connect to our bodies and let go of some tension. ❤️💔❤️ Please stay tuned for details and if you have a space where you could host a class, let me know. If you work at a shelter and want to organize a class I can come teach... Or your family could use some yoga, let me know. I'll come to you and we will make it happen. 💛 I'm ready and willing to share in the ways I can. A heartfelt Namaste 😊🙏 #yoga #chicoca #buttecounty #buttecountyfire #buttestrong #campfire #paradise #prayforparadise #paradiseca #love #aliveinthefire 📷 by @angelo_hilton_photographer
Let us be grateful in the moment for the blessings we have 💛💛💛 Took this picture a few days before the Camp Fire started. Early morning, crisp cold fall air, out walking my dog in the neighborhood where I live in Chico. Starting the day off with a breath of fresh air and a big smile 😊🙏 In some ways it feels like everything has changed in the last 48 hours. 72 hours? I've lost track of time. 🙄 All I know is that right now I see what's important: my loved ones, my relationships, the way we exist in community. Our health. The safety of our bodies 🙏💪 Be good to people. Do good work. Give what you can. These are the mantras I'm living by 💛💛💛 Even in the face of tragedy, I will not give up. Butte County I'm with you. Where I can help, let me be of service. We are in this together ❤️💪🙏💛 #yoga #aliveinthefire #campfire #buttecounty #buttecountyfire #chicoca #gratitude #staypositive #california #norcal
Today I'm working on replenishing my own energy 🙏❤️ The last few days have been exhausting. Thank you to everyone sending support. Please continue to share words of encouragement. Butte County needs all the love and positivity we can get right now! 💪💛 A few ideas for anyone feeling exhausted or overwhelmed by the fires: 💛 Spend 5 minutes in seated meditation. Scan your body for areas that need extra support. Envision sending energy there. 💛 Write in your journal. Write about what you're feeling, what you've seen, what you need help with. 💛 Epsom salt baths. 💛 Child's pose, reclined twists and legs up the wall pose are great restorative options. 💛 Ask for a hug if you need one. You're not alone 🙏💛 please reach out if you need some encouragement!

We are in this together. 💔😭🙏😔 Currently sending you a hug. Anyone who is feeling this weight, please know you are not alone. Please reach out for help. Please reach out with ideas for how we can help. #campfire #aliveinthefire #chicoca #fire #california
This morning I did yoga with a group of both dear friends and complete strangers, and all of us dedicated our practice to those affected by the California fires. 🙏❤️ I cried my way through my practice and gave it all away. I gave each breath and each pose to those I know who have lost everything and who are struggling to know what to do next. I gave my practice to the firefighters I know who are working to keep us safe. To the friend of a friend who lost his mom and whose dad was flown by helicopter out of Paradise, who is now fighting for his life. To the neighbor who worked at Feather River Hospital who helped evacuate patients and save lives. To the friend who spent Thursday separated from his family and kids, desperately waiting to hear if they made it down the hill out of Paradise. Parts of their car melted while they were in the fire. The kids are traumatized and are having nightmares, but they are safe. I gave my practice away to my work friends who don't have homes but who are somehow remaining positive and upbeat about the blessings they do have. 💔😭 My community-- people I love and care about so much-- are suffering. The least I can do is give my practice to you, and raise awareness and funds to support. 😔💪 I'm happy to say that at today's class we raised $110 that will be used to buy masks for folks in Chico who are dealing with bad air quality. 🙏 To those of you who clicked the link in my bio to make a donation, thank you. That money goes straight to the shelters who are hosting evacuees and putting a roof over their heads. 🙏 Thank you @momentomyoga and @buckasana for holding this sacred space and reminding us what this practice is truly about-- community. I can't tell you how grateful I feel to be held in a space of love and support, and how much it means to me to see people showing up to help. Let's continue this effort and hold up those in Butte County who need us. We are in this together. #CampFire #momentom #momentomyoga #buttecounty #californiafires #wildfiresupport #aliveinthefire #yoga #community
