Hi.

Welcome!  Here is where you can find when and where I am teaching and cooking, or maybe sometimes, what is on my mind. Hope you have a nice stay!

Maui Retreat Recap

Maui Retreat Recap

It was a wonderful week in paradise! So thankful for all of you who where able to join me there!🙏 It was a week filled with yoga, food, friends and wonderful conversations. Looking forward to our next adventure together already!

Throughout the week we chatted about a number wonderful products that exist that aid me in both my yoga and cooking life. Below I am including links that can take you directly to some of my favorite items, or items that we got to look at and come highly recommended!


A little disclaimer, I have set up an amazon affiliate account in hope to make a little profit off of some of the products that I believe in!


Yoga knee pads: These are the knee pads that Susan has been using and highly recommends! If you have sensitive knees, or, just want to treat yourself with a little loving kindness, these are for you! I will be getting some this week. If you are only wanting to purchase one large pad that will sit across your mat, you can find that option here.

Yoga Wheel: There was a brief conversation about this product which have and love! My yoga wheel has absolutely helped in keeping my spine healthy with all of the forward rounding that daily life requires. This set of three wheels is a nice set.

Smoothie bits and pieces:

Everyone at the retreat went home with a little sheet of a few of my favorite smoothie recipes . Those who were able to make it to the smoothie class had a few little questions about products that I like to use in my smoothies, collagen in particular.

Here are a few of my favorite smoothie items:

Collagen : I love this multi-source collagen powder! I use it daily in my coffee and in my smoothies when I need a flavorless protein source.

Blender: I love my vitamix. I am always so impressed with the quality of their products. In my opinion, you can’t go wrong with them. I will also use my vitamix immersion blender to make individual smoothies if I don’t feel like getting out my full blender.

Green Powder: There are a number of great options out there to add a little more green into your life.

Would you like a sweatshirt option of your retreat tee?

Jessica Johns who designed the shirt for me has kindly added a few different sweatshirt options onto her site!

It is always a little sad at the end of these wonderful experiences. I feel so blessed and honored to have had this opportunity with such a lovely group of people! Until next time!

Aloha
