It is time to stop giving so much energy to fear.
It is time to start manifesting dreams.
I’ve been wanting to launch online videos of my yoga classes for a few years now. I tell myself that my busy schedule and time constraints are the reasons why I have not moved forward, but there is more to it than that. If I’m really honest with myself it is the fear of putting myself out there that has been holding me back.
Sometimes the biggest obstacle to happiness and achieving goals are our own fears. That same self-defeating thought that keeps repeating over and over in the mind. That is why getting on the yoga mat is so helpful for me so I can quiet my mind and notice where I keep repeating self-doubt and fear. The moments of quiet help me bring clarity, creativity, and the impetus to move forward with what I want to achieve.
I’ve decided to kick fear in the ass today and post a video that I shot close to a year ago while I was leading a yoga retreat at Sansara Surf and Yoga Resort in Panama. It is serendipitous that this class just so happens to be about letting go of fear! It is a short but powerful session that includes mantras, mudras, and yoga poses that will help you kick fear in the ass right along with me.
Big hug and THANKS to Jacob Nyyssonen for helping me to shoot and edit this video.
So, find a comfortable place at home, roll out your yoga mat, and practice with me. The session is 22 minutes and you can use it to get you warmed up and motivated and perhaps add a bit more of your own home practice and a savasana to finish it out.
Good news, I’m not letting fear get in my way this year, and I’ve already recorded more videos and I am in the process of getting them edited and set up on my website, so stay tuned for more details about taking online classes with me.
If you do this class or want to do online classes with me, please leave a comment below with your feedback. I’d love to hear from you and THANKS in advance for practicing with me!
I loved sharing yoga at Sansara and I’m super excited to be going back there again this April to lead another yoga retreat!

There are still a few rooms left, and the Quad Rooms are on sale until February 1, so click here to get more information! If you need a roommate, I can set you up with one!
Thanks a lot for publishing this unique and informative blog.
I completely agree that we should kick fear in the butt! hehe
I think there are amazing things to reach once we get to that other side of fear. Sometimes fear is really a sign for me, that I’m headed in the right direction and stepping out of my comfort zone 🙂
Hugs,

I love this post! Sometimes the biggest obstacle to happiness and achieving goals are our own fears….This part really stuck out to me. Sometimes we have to step out even if we are afraid or we will live in fear forever.
Couldn’t agree more with what you’ve said! I realized the point you made a year ago when I wanted to take beginner flow yoga classes but I never took action because I was conscious of my own body. That is until I finally gathered up the courage to take a class and realized nobody cares about how others look and everyone is supportive in this world of yoga. That really helped give me the confidence I needed and now, I’m fitter than I’ve ever been my entire life. For more info visit at – https://yourbuddhi.com/videos/

I love this article !!! After doing this session, i feel very fresh and relaxed.
The nice thing about yoga is that it challenges you to do things physically and mentally that you wouldn’t otherwise do. Through the practice, we face challenges and can experience reward and struggle. I think that has a lot of positive influence over facing fears external to our practice. Not only can we learn to build good boundaries ( focusing on the here and now rather than possibilities), it also helps us stay focused when times do get difficult.
Thanks for sharing those insights about yoga. I’m also trying to switch to a healthier lifestyle and started to mine for healthy recipes like yours. Also, I started a marathon training with SportMe, and I managed to get rid of some pounds. Your blog posts are super inspiring for me in this phase, thanks!
