Poetry, Yoga, and Spiritual Freedom
The Yoga Poetry Project on Substack includes reflections on yoga, poetry, and spirituality. Yoga has transformed me completely–and unexpectedly! It’s free to join, and it includes essays, meditations, writing prompts, reflections, Yoga Nidra, yin sequences, and poetry for and about the body and consciousness. It’s new, so I’m working on it.
I just finished my fifth book manuscript, “Involution: A Journey in Poetry, Yoga, and Spiritual Freedom.” For the past five years, I’ve been crafting a series of essays inspired by my amazing teachers, trainings, and of course, my daily Ashtanga practice. It’s been a long journey, indeed. If you know me, you might find yourself mentioned here. Sorry! I’m a writer first, haha. Along the way, I’ve become certified to teach yoga with Amy Lucky and Tania Melkonian; completed a Black Lotus yoga training and three years of yoga philosophy with Ty Landrum; earned a Reiki I certificate with Addy Berra, and learned geomancy and divination from the elemental witch, Salicrow. This is just to name a few! I’ve been blessed with many teachers, and I hope I can share some of that knowledge with others.
I hope you will take this journey with me, even if you have little knowledge about yoga and/or poetry. We all have wisdom that is unique to us, and we can all learn from each other. My hope is that this community will support each other’s creativity and our exploration of consciousness (whatever form that might take for each individual). This is dangerous and scary work, and we need others to talk to when things get difficult.
