The theme of classes this fall will be following the theme presented in July. Now we are “Falling into Love”.
What we need now is an “evolutionary love yoga”. This is a new path, where we can reclaim eros, and love’s love for its own creation. As we connect with the sacred heart, we fuel our sacred creativity. We create a field of transformation around us. Eros makes our lives a crucible of alchemical transformation. As we marry eros and adoration, eros is divinized, and we worship the divine in a golden unity. We begin to live a new sacred life. It’s all one worship – and that includes the body.

The weekly fall class will be on zoom.
Check out info below for the in-person workshop in Oriental, NC on Sunday, Sept. 24! The theme will be “Preparing for Fall, Physically, Emotionally, Mentally and Spiritually.”

This is an exciting month at Mata Shakti!
After 3 + years, Kundalini yoga and meditation classes will be offered in person! If you’ve been missing the gong, come and experience it during each class.

There will also be a limited number of slots open for in person counseling clients. If you’ve been missing or wanting to do sandplay therapy, the Jungian sand tray and all the sacred miniatures are waiting for you!

Zoom classes will also remain available for out of town folks and those who would just rather do yoga at home!

The theme of classes this summer is “The Summer of Love”, and here’s why: The patriarchal models of religion, and even yoga, have stressed the separation of spirit from the body, and enforced a lot of “rules” about what is and what’s not OK. What we need now is an “evolutionary love yoga”. This is a new path, where we can reclaim eros, and love’s love for its own creation. As we connect with the sacred heart, we rescue eros from the patriarchy and fuel our sacred creativity. We create a field of transformation around us. Eros makes our lives a crucible of alchemical transformation. As we marry eros and adoration, eros is divinized, and we worship the divine in a golden unity. We begin to live a new sacred life. It’s all one worship – and that includes the body. So this summer, we focus on the heart chakra, our bodies, our sexuality and sensuality, not as separate from the Divine, but a crucial part of it!

Happy Spring!


A new season, and a new series of yoga classes!
This spring we will focus on cleansing, honoring Earth Day, working on communication during the Mercury retrograde time,
opening our hearts with the lunar eclipse in May, working with trust and surrender, and connecting to deep joy.
I look forward to being with you in the lovely zoom community we are forming with folks near and far. See details on class schedule!
