🌊 Good morning, lovers! . . I am super excited to about partnering with my friends over at The National Museum of Women in the Arts (@womeninthearts ) for next months first “Untame the Goddess: A Journey to the Sacred Feminine.” . . Sunday, March 8th 11am - 12pm we come together in honor of international Women’s Day to harness the divine feminine nature that exists within us all. We connect deeply to self and one another to show our gratitude for the ever present power of motherhood, sisterhood and womanhood. By acknowledging and unleashing the goddess energy within ourselves we acknowledge our capacity to liberate, transform and create and set the tone to birth our fullest potential using Asana, Pranayama, #Kundalini and Adi Shakti Meditation. . . Guides: Sihnuu Hetep & Nandi Gabremedhin (@busu_ma_yoga77 ). . . This event is FREE to you with registration. #SeeLinkInBio to save your spot.

Illegal practice selfie. This is what happens when I get a text message during practice and I pick up my phone to look at it. Lol. At least I made myself laugh. But seriously, it’s not advised to take selfies (or text message) during practice. It’s much better to use an interval timer for photos and wait until after practice to send texts 😉 _ Teaching two more classes tomorrow in Washington DC. Come practice 😊 Register at www.woodleyparkyoga.com _ Wearing @liquidoactive Photo taken during my practice @avenuesuitesdc this morning. #yoga #ekapadasirsasana #ashtanga #dc #washingtondc #dcyoga #yogi #yogapractice 🙏 (at Avenue Suites, Washington DC) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz3zatZnSsy/?igshid=1a7yfcivro4ra

✨ There's something about the song of a crystal bowl that opens me in way that makes me feel fully in tune to the rhythm of my breath and center. It's almost as if synchronicity is taking place between cosmic sound and my spirit. When sonic vibrations move through my body I feel a sense of release and connection to self. . . **NEW BLOG POST** at www.yogasihnuu.com/wildwomandaily.

✨ We often fool ourselves that we are concentrating because we fix our attention on wavering objects. B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life . . It’s such a challenge to find stability in our outer world. Just when you think things are coming to a stand still, the veil of illusion is lifted and something else comes along to shake things up a bit. It feels like we are back at square one trying to find solid ground. This is a common theme because no matter how stable things look on the outside, life is a constant shift. Things are always changing and evolving, so nothing will ever be still enough to allow us to catch up. . . The stability that is constant and real is internal. Our capacity to stand firm and resolute as life throws challenges our way is the stability that is most fortifying. We can decide how to respond, when to let go and when to ride the wave of understanding and spiritual expansion. We all have the option to focus in, root down and rise up. What choice will you make today? - ♥️ Sihnuu . . . Photo by: @niqko . . .

✨ Good Samhain to you and yours. May the blood of your ancestors flow through your veins, like a river over the landscape of memory. May you hear your Beloved Dead as they whisper their wisdom in your ear and leave you with the gift of hope. - Angie Buchanan . . . Stepping into Monday w sister @aprilramee reflecting on all that was, all that is and all that will be. We carry the voices of our ancestors, they live through our actions. Let’s rejoice and honor the wheel of life, our connection to the past and our inspiration for the future. . . Thank you to the Yogis of last nights Samhain + Samadhi may you continue to find balance and peace in death and renewal. . . . Namaste 🙏🏾 🖤 Sihnuu . . . . . . . . . . #yoga #yogasihnuu #antleralchemy #love #ancestors #light#dark #yogadx #dcyoga (at Washington, District of Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BphGaQRHQ5N/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qr2jdneo4pj7

✨ Eka Pada Raja Hanumanasana...say that 5 times fast. Speaking of fast..How are you challenging yourself this week? I'll start. 🤗 . . This morning I went to my 9:30am class in a rush and realized after class that I didn't have my car keys on me until it was time for me to head to my next class in another part of the city. After walking for about 20 minutes looking for a gas station or police officer that could help me, I contacted AAA. They let me know that it would take about 60 minutes (that's anxious people language for a full hour) to get someone out to help me. My mind started to race again. If I didn't do something I would likely miss my class. I needed to move. I assured Adrianne that I would be a few minutes late for class, at most. I was determined to fix this situation as quickly as possible even with a phone battery of 9%. I thought about Ubering, I thought about missing AAA and I thought about my now 7% battery and I remained still. As challenging as it was for me to do nothing but wait, I did just that. And now here I am, writing this post from the inside of my car, charging my phone while my keys were inside of my bag. I missed class, but I take a moment to just be and understand the importance of slowing down and pacing myself even when there are things to do. This is the yoga that counts the most, the kind you can apply to your everyday life. How are you practicing off of the mat today? Happy Monday, Yogis!! . . ❤️ Sihnuu . .

✨ Reclaim your magic. . . Sometimes magic looks like fairies, unicorns and other mystical creatures. Other times it looks like making it out of the bed and moving through the day with a positive outlook despite your circumstances. Sometimes it looks like speaking your truth even when you are feeling afraid. Showing yourself love even when you don't feel so lovable, that's magic. Magic is our capacity to inspire the shift we need in our lives. Don't wait for a larger than life occurrence to acknowledge and honor the magic you are already creating. . . . 🦄💜🔮✨ Sihnhunicorn . . . . . . . . . . . . #yoga #yogasihnuu #vinyasa #healing #magic #community #natural #holistic #health #wellness #relax #selfcare #selflove #healthyliving #yogadc #dcyoga #zen #peace #peacefull #soft #love #lifestyle #peace #om #meditate #oneness #mindbodysoul #yogastudent
