There is this word in Sanskrit that I’ve been thinking about recently while looking at my little wild boy.

It’s Leela, and it can be loosely translated as “divine play.” It’s this idea that the whole universe, everything that exists, is simply a cosmic and divine play of existence, spontaneous, creative, and alive. Everything is an effortless expression ofConsciousness.

It’s like what Shakespeare meant when he said “all the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players”. But it goes way deeper - the idea is that God, or Consciousness, is playing out as everything we see. It keeps taking different forms, becoming all the diversity of life and creation, exploring and experiencing itself from every possible angle.

I’m no scholar in Sanskrit or Hindu mythology, but I wanted to tell you one short story about Leela that I really like.

The story is in the carousel above, because somehow the short story turned into a much longer post than I planned 🙃

but I hope you will enjoy it! 🌀

Bottom line: my little boy keeps reminding me everyday what life is all about.

The everyday reminder from my little boy, now 14 (!) months young. Sometimes I look into his eyes and it feels like the entire universe is looking back into my soul 🌀

28/12/2025

It’s been over nine months with this little human. I haven’t been posting at all, and I don’t think this will change anytime soon — because honestly, looking at my phone is no longer even remotely interesting when I get to do life with this brand-new person.

But here I am. He’s sleeping, the room is quiet, and inspiration struck me: these days, motherhood to me is yoga embodied.

There is so much I could say about this sentence. So many words wanting to come through. And maybe one day I’ll return to writing and sharing more often. But for now, let me just say this: these days I rarely sit for a complete yoga practice, yet I have never felt this present and this deeply connected to the pulse of life as I do with him by my side.

Motherhood isn’t quiet or contained. It’s messy, repetitive, exhausting, tender. And still — or maybe because of that — it asks of me exactly what the path of yoga has always asked: to stay, and to meet reality as it is. There is no space for distraction here. No stepping out of the moment.
The usual loops of thought — planning, narrating — are constantly interrupted by what is needed NOW. The mind doesn’t get to wander far before being called back. Presence is required in my arms, in my breath, in how I listen and respond. In the middle of the night. In the middle of the same task, again and again.

This is not a practice I step onto a mat for. This is a practice that meets me wherever I am. A living, breathing sadhana — woven into feeding, holding, laughing, playing, soothing, watching, waiting.

That's my yoga these days 🌀

Sending you a lot of love as this year wraps up ✨

It’s been over 6 weeks since he landed earth-side 🐥💞
and I find myself holding onto fleeting moments—
the way he curls his fingers around mine,
the little sighs he makes in his sleep,
how time seems to slow when I’m just staring at his face.

And through it all, I’m also rediscovering myself.
Someone new—softer, stretched wider with love,
with a strength I never knew I had,
and a heart that now lives outside my chest.

Motherhood is raw, and oh so sacred.
It’s the most humbling, tender unfolding.
And I’m here for every bit of it.

Years ago, a teacher asked me to reflect on where my mind was during practice. It was an online yoga class, and I was stunned to realize how much I wasn’t there. My mind kept running:
"Ugh, how much longer?"
"I don’t feel like doing this today."
"Okay, I did it—what’s next?"

I began to see how these same patterns played out beyond the mat—how I moved through my day, how I met discomfort, how I rushed through moments without truly being in them. That simple prompt shifted everything. My practice became a mirror, a space to witness myself more clearly.

🌀 So here’s an invitation for your next practice—on the mat, on the meditation pillow, or even in the midst of daily life:
Notice. Where does your mind go? Are there moments of resistance, impatience, or rushing ahead? Do these patterns feel familiar?

Can you stay with them, just for a breath? Can you observe without judgment?

Because once we see a pattern clearly, we have a choice. Do we keep reacting the same way, or can we soften—just a little? Maybe it’s unclenching the jaw when tension arises. Maybe it’s staying with a deep breath instead of escaping the moment.

Yoga doesn’t ask us to be perfect. It asks us to pay attention. And through awareness, change happens naturally.

With love,
Anna

To me, yoga begins with an honest meeting of my present experience—seeing what arises without judgment, simply being with it, even when it’s uncomfortable.

I hope today’s reflection sparks something in your next practice.

With love,
Anna

🌸 I have been listening to and trusting my intuition more than ever before.
She speaks with such clarity these days—never missing a beat.

I am finding peace in releasing expectations, in letting go of the ideas I once held tightly.
What is meant for me will find its way.

Something within me is shifting—softening and strengthening at the same time.
My heart is softening, shedding its armor.
My body and my will are growing stronger, more powerful with each passing day.

And I am in constant awe of a woman’s body—this incredible portal between the spiritual and the physical realm.
I can feel it: as my baby is being born, I, too, will be born again.
And that thought fills me with a kind of wild, exhilarating excitement 🌀✨

I'm sharing a couple of photos from my Mother's Blessing Ceremony, and it means everything to me that I could honor this beautiful shift, surrounded by the love of my dear friends.

This ceremony, this moment—it will stay with me forever.

As we stand at the threshold between winter’s stillness and the quiet stirrings of spring, I invite you to our second gathering of the year 🌀. Once again, I’m holding this space together with my dear friend Livia, who will guide us through a beautiful sound healing journey.

This 2-hour gathering is a journey inward—an opportunity to connect with the heart, the seat of the soul 💫. The heart is the center of our deepest truth, the space where our essence, intuition, and inner wisdom reside. It is where we meet our purest Self. Together, we will tend to the heart space, not just as an act of self-love, but as a remembrance of our wholeness. This is an invitation to soften, to listen inward with tenderness, and to open ourselves to the unfolding of what is to come 🤍.

We’ll move through a heart-opening asana practice to create spaciousness in the body, pranayama to awaken vitality, and guided meditation to quiet the mind and reconnect with inner wisdom. We will then transition into a deeply restorative sound healing session, allowing vibrations to soothe and rejuvenate, before closing in a women’s circle—sharing, reflecting, and simply being held in the warmth of community.

🗓️ Saturday, 15th February
🕐 3:30 PM - 5:30 PM
📍 MSMC Studio, 151A Kitchener Road, 2nd Floor
💚 Energy Exchange: $30

💌 Send me a private message to reserve your spot.

I would love to share this space with you. 🌱

With love,
Anna

🤍💫🤰
These past months have been the most sacred of my life, and I've never felt so deeply connected to my body and my intuition. This journey has been truly beautiful so far, and I can’t wait to meet our first tiny love 😊✨💚

24/01/2025

Honoring stillness and rest has been an important theme for me this month, and I’m so grateful I had the chance to gather with 12 beautiful souls last Saturday. Together, we journeyed from movement into stillness, creating space for a soft landing into this new calendar year 🌀

There is profound wisdom in slowing down and embracing radical rest. Stillness helps us uncover new ways to nourish our body, mind, and soul. It feeds our relationships, sustains the Earth, and prepares fertile ground for the seeds of what’s yet to come.

In stillness, we find the opportunity to turn inward, because within us lies great power: the inner teacher, a guiding light, our intuition— that subtle guidance that arises from a deep connection to the Self.

We often think we join circles or classes to be guided or taught, but in truth, we’re simply given space to reconnect with ourselves and our inner teacher. I hope you’re giving yourself plenty of such space these days 🌱

With love,
Anna

P.S. I feel called to return to hosting regular, monthly gatherings—either live or online—but the idea is still stirring and brewing within me. Let’s see where it takes me.
