Ojas + the Heart

Many of you remember my beloved former studio, Ojas Yoga Center, which supported our healing for over a decade. The word 'Ojas' was always more than just the name on the door. Ojas is an Ayurvedic term that refers to our vital essence - the subtle energy that builds resilience, radiance, and deep well-being. Ojas begins and ends in the heart, and has always been at the heart of what I share.
When the pandemic closed our physical doors I moved my teaching online which has given me space to create new resources and reach more people than ever before. Over the past few years, I’ve recorded nearly 2,000 hours of classes, workshops, and courses, and expanded my private heart-centered coaching and mentorship. At the center of it all remains the promise of yoga - and of Ojas: wholeness, presence, and a powerfully peaceful heart.
That’s why my current work lives under the name Centered in the Heart.
The guiding principle of Ojas has never left - it continues to be the foundation and goal of everything I offer. Whether in yoga, meditation, or private healing sessions, the intention is always to replenish your inner reservoir and strengthen the vitality of spirit that carries you through life with steadiness and grace.
In other words: Ojas is the why. Centered in the Heart is the how.
This fall, I’m bringing the topic of Ojas front and center in a special class for the Equinox. Together we’ll explore practices for restoring the heart’s strength and deepening our reservoir of Ojas for the season ahead. Details below...

Ojas + the Heart: Equinox Practice (online + recorded)Sunday, September 21 | 8:30-10:30 a.m. A blend of yoga, meditation, and restorative practices
At this moment in our world, with so much uncertainty and unrest, it feels more important than ever to ground ourselves in the strength of the heart — to remember that our deepest resource is not outside us, but within.
The Fall Equinox is a threshold moment — a time when light and dark come into balance, inviting us to pause, replenish, and realign with what sustains us most deeply. To honor this seasonal transition, I’m offering a special 2-hour online healing gathering:
Together we’ll explore the essence of Ojas — the vital energy that nourishes health and wholeness — and connect it to the wisdom of the Heart, our inner compass of clarity, compassion, and peace.
You can expect:
This class is open to all - gentle, accessible, and replenishing! Have a yoga mat, blankets, pillows or bolster, yoga blocks nice but not required.
Together, we’ll honor the continuity of our shared path: cultivating vitality, balance, and the kind of inner strength the world needs most right now.
