Befriend your body. Rewrite the story of your life.
Dear beautiful –
From the bottom of my wisdom heart, thank you for signing up for The Nest. Your membership at the Silver level starts right now, with immediate access to secret blog posts that I don’t share anywhere else.
Your membership begins today, and you’re already logged in. If you need to log in again, there’s a red login button at the top of each page here on Sevamama.com. You’ll also find a secondary login in the right middle of the page when you access the Journal (what I call my blog) tab.
The Silver level is a wonderful place to explore the teachings I offer, including monthly themed anchor posts, yoga tutorials that you can do at home, wildcard posts, and Ayurvedic (un)recipes.
Your membership also gives you access to Awake in The Nest, a virtual gathering where we’ll dive deep into a monthly theme. Through wisdom talks, embodiment exercises, journaling, and more you’ll explore your relationship with that month’s topic and learn how to walk in alignment with what you really want. We gather on the third Wednesday of the month at 11:00 a.m. PT. You’ll receive a reminder and a Zoom link a week before we gather.
If you’re ready to soar, take a look at Nest levels that include 1:1 Wisdom Guidance. You can change or cancel your membership at any time. Due to the nature of this work, no refunds are available for partial months.
I look forward to seeing you in the treetops.
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 Easy Dinner Template
The only thing that is more challenging than spending all morning at a Mexican government office waiting for your visas to be processed is spending the whole morning at a Mexican government office waiting for your visas to be processed with a toddler…whose parents forgot her snack.
There is very little one can do about this kind of situation besides take a number, go to the bodega across the street, buy a couple bananas, and wait.
The twos
I write this as my daughter is crying in the bedroom. My husband is in there with her, trying to coax her to put on her pajamas and get into bed. At the surface is her desire to watch a cartoon show, a rare treat for her. We don’t own a television and rarely even show her our phones, but she is learning to use the potty and her reward for a good poop is to see an episode of a show about this friendly tiger kid she loves.
On our best behavior
We have moved. Twice. Once from a tiny island across an ocean, then to a different country. My daughter is 2½, and cannot understand what would make us uproot everything she’s ever known and move to a place where her mother’s seven years of Spanish classes fail to meet all her needs.
It has been a very intense time of mothering. She cries for me nonstop. She clings to my neck like a 30-lb monkey, terrified about the way the stairs look, or that strange sound in the distance. She wakes in the night and yells my name. It is as if she needs to know that I did not sneak off while she was sleeping and hop on another airplane. Yes, my love, I say, Your mama is here.
“On this path effort never goes to waste, and there is no failure.”
