Today, on my 42nd birthday as I reflect back and at the same time gaze forward Im thinking about what my contribution has been to the world so far and what I’d like to contribute moving forward.

For a long time now, I’ve been on a a simple little quest to get to know my heart (lol simple) and to develop a friendliness with myself. It’s been my hope that I can use my life to help people do the same.

Everyone (for the most part) uses AI for something, I use it too.

I see that our shared humanity is dwindling, there is an artificial lens that has been placed on people. everyone is sounding the same, there are these —— dashes everywhere. The grammar is good, everything seems polished but the person is missing. The heart is missing. The brain is missing. The soul is definitely missing.

Moving forward, in this next rotation around the sun, I want to continue do real things, to journal, to hike, to swim , to teach, to read from a book, to cook, to eat real food and to have meaningful conversations.

I want to stay connected with my humanness and with all the imperfections and the beauty that my humanness includes.

I love humans. we’re worth preserving and protecting. 🤍

After 16 years of teaching and close to 20 years of practice, (😅) I’m finally offering my first solo training!

That sentence feels like something I’ve been needing to say for a long time. 🫠

I’ve had the privilege of supporting and working alongside incredible teachers, helping bring their trainings to life. Until now, I could hold space for other people’s vision, but I didn’t fully trust my own.

This training comes from a deep and sincere place inside of me that feels ready and excited to share. There’s no room for doubt because I know from my own as lived experience that this offering has value

Tony Lupinacci: The Training is a six night, 75 hour immersion into the way I teach and practice. We will practice āsana in a classical way focusing on breath, bandha, and dṛṣṭi. I’ll also unpack my teaching methodology and sequencing. We’ll have several sessions that cover satsanga Sadhana which weaves in prāṇāyāma, mantra, kriyā, and meditation as a means to shift energy and create space in the body from the inside out.

This program is open to teachers wanting to enhance their offering and students looking to deepen their practice. The goal is to travel inside, and to experience the power of practice on a subtle level.

This feels like a shift in me, and something I hope will create a shift in those who come.

I’ll be hosting this training at Cocoon Portugal, my home, from October 24 - 30, 2026.

If you feel intrigued comment READY below and I’ll send you the link with all the info 🤍

The most interesting thing about my birthday is how it gathers the magnitude my life’s experience into one moment that comes once a year.

the thought that I keep coming back to is simple: I am happy to be alive.

I’m grateful to live a life I’m proud of, surrounded by family and community I get to support and be supported by. I get to Witness spirit play with itself, I get to feel the intersection of our shared aliveness.

Sometimes Things don’t always “work out” or go “as planned,” and The question I return to again and again is — what is this here to show me about me? How can each moment illuminate the path of truth, deepen my resilience, and at the same time soften me into trust and clarity?

I’m not perfect, but I am proud of the man I’ve become. Over the past few years I’ve found a deeper freedom to be me without fear of what others think — and it feels phenomenal.

Today I want to say thank you…
💛 To my dad, who worked hard, did his best, and gave me life. Thanks for that!
💛 To my husband, whose endless support, curiosity, and playfulness make every day an adventure.
💛 To my friends and colleagues, who remind me that the people we surround ourselves with shape our world — and mine is filled with the best of the best.
💛 To my students and all of you who trust me with your growth — you inspire me and change me for the better every single day.

Next time you see a flower, stop. Pause. Smell it. Inhale the magic of your own aliveness.

Big, big love. 🫶🏼
