Befriend your body. Rewrite the story of your life.
Dear beautiful –
From the bottom of my wisdom heart, thank you for signing up for BodyStory: Hunger. I cannot wait to join you on this journey as we dive deeply into ourselves, our bodies, and our desires.
Our focus together during this series will be using the lens of Ayurveda to rekindle and rediscover that deep seated fire that fuels your hunger for life. After living through the last year and a half, we all need a reintroduction to the wisdom of our own bodies. There’s no better place to start than by reigniting our relationship with agni, the digestive fire that is responsible for our personal power.
Each week we’ll gather for a live session with ample opportunities to connect, learn, and ask questions. These will be supplemented by emailed Ayurvedic recipes and videos to support the physical rekindling of your inner fire.
You’ll find all the details you need to join the classes below:
When: Six Thursdays, beginning October 20 through December 2 (skipping the week of November 25 due to U.S. Thanksgiving) 4:00 – 5:15 p.m. PT
Where: Zoom
Password: 233773
What to bring: A notebook and pen (some weeks may require additional items that will be included in the reminder email)
You’ll get a reminder the day of, but mark your calendar now so the time is blocked off. While I recommend you attend live, I understand what life often throws at us. I will record each session and post it within 24 hours.
I can’t wait to see the light of your fire.
Much love,
Sonja
In Your Words
“I am a changed person because of Sonja and so are my relationships.”
"I was surprised by how well Sonja really listened to me, and not just my words. She is present, and thus can find the deeper expression among all the rambling and 'I don’t knows.'"
"Sonja is a wise, authentic guide teaching deep and mind-blowing truths using a fun, light-hearted approach.
After each session, I feel more in touch with my intuition and filled with optimism."
The Journal
Breath
When my mother texted to tell me that the doctors had found cancer in her lungs, I called and yelled at her. Standing on the streets of New York City, I was one more voice in the irate cacophony of the Financial District, sharing my outrage that some things should not be delivered over text.
It had never occurred to me that it might be too painful to say out loud.
Introduction to Yoga Nidra with Me
How to set up for SevaMama digital yoga classes I like to keep a home yoga practice very simple. For all classes, I suggest you have two yoga blocks and a folding chair (or an ottoman, coffee table, or couch) to use for savasana at the end of practice. In most...
Valentine’s Day Card: On Gratitude and Taking a Complaint Fast
I struggle with Spanish. No, let me say it this way: Lucho con el español.
This can be a problem for me, as I live in Mexico and most people I know are Mexican.
I studied Spanish for years in school, but, until now, I hid my fluency in the pages of my textbooks. Any student knows there is very little to be learned from those 1000-page tomes. So now that I am enrolled in the Spanish of Hard Knocks, I tell myself this story: Learning a new language is hard.
This story bounces around in my head every time I go to open my mouth. It catches the words on my tongue and destroys me before I conjugate my first verb.
“On this path effort never goes to waste, and there is no failure.”
