Bearing Witness to Healing


 I have just returned from the most powerful retreat I have ever had the honor of being a part of: Marianne Williamson's A Course In Weight Loss Retreat in San Diego was attended by about 130 amazing women and 5 men. I have attended and hosted many retreats with amazing yogi's and healers, but I have never been in the presence of such brave and beautiful women and men. The weekend was so powerful that I am still processing the full experience, but I had to post.
If you know anyone that has struggled with weight loss, food addiction or compulsive eating you must make them aware of this book. Marianne has 21 lessons in the book which allow you to move into a place of self remembrance and wholeness. If you are a student of yoga you will resonate with Marianne's non-dualistic approach, bringing spirituality and weight loss together in way that is experiential-you can feel the shift in consciousness as you move through the lessons. Listen to Marianne's radio show on Tuesday's to hear feedback from people who are doing the course firsthand. Her next show on February 15th at 12:00pm is on Building A Good Relationship With Food.
I was so honored to teach yoga to this amazing group of retreatees, some of whom had never done yoga before. I was embraced with love and openness; the practice of Para Yoga was honored and recognized in a way that was very profound.
I am so humbled and amazed that the dream that I have for my life is becoming manifest.
As I look back at my vision board- I see once again, its exactly what I asked for!!!!
Jai Ganesha!

  1. I'm still processing too Tracee, but well aware of, and grateful for your guidance. I was told long ago to stick with the winners - the people who have what you want - you don't just teach yoga, you embody the grace, beauty, and serenity that results from practice. I want what you have! Thank you for leading me there. Jewels xo
