We already know that I am an advocate for foam rolling. One of my favorite places to do it is along my spine and not necessarily to relive muscle tension and soreness, but for its ability to decompress the nervous system! Reducing anxiety is something we can all strive for and this quick and easy application has shown major benefits. Moreover, some studies have shown that foam rolling reduces cortisol levels, known as the "stress hormone". When cortisol levels are elevated we are in flight or flight ...

Being a Person definitely does not mean you are Perfect β¨ In Buddhism there is a term known as samara. Samara is the suffering cycle that is life, death and rebirth with no known end. In order to alleviate this suffering, we strive for moksha (finding a release) to transcend the karmas of our lives, in this one and the past. Today, focus on your own karma, what can you do or change to be better for yourself and the world π

In Chinese Medicine, our organ systems are associated with a clock. For example, your lungs have the most qi, or energy, between 3-5am. So the thought is between that time you should wake up and take your first breath, meditation or engage in breath work. One way I like to execute my meditation is Vajrasana on toes, or commonly known as broken toe pose. This posture strengthens the ankle joint as well as stretching the bottom of the feet, which most people are so badly in need π¦Άπ» If you have plantar...

And so the story goes of the girl in rose colored glasses πΉ Do you know where the story comes from? It is said that the map makers back in the day would use rose petals to clean their glasses. Over time, the lens of the glasses changed colors to absorb pink. It is through their rose colored glasses that the map makers began to look at the world in a different light - literally and figuratively. How can you change your perception of the world today?

Oh Hi there π I've always installed aerial yoga straps in every home I've lived for this very purpose! We already known my love and passion for inverting but these straps make it easy to decompress the spine with a free hang. Decompression of the spine is super important because constantly we are right side with bones of our spine stacked on one another. Fusion of spinal disks is a very common affliction and this is the recipe to combat that. With a free hang, you allow gravity to do the work an...

Cupping is one of my favorite modalities to perform for clients. It is highly beneficial in removing stagnation deriving from pain, promoting the free flow of qi and fluids as well as induces a warming function. Cupping session last approximately 10-20 minutes dependent upon the client and the bodies' reaction and tolerance. Once the cups are removed, there is a glorious feeling of flushing and release through the afflicted area. Do you want to get cupped by Kate? π

Holy Hips!!!! If you're hips tend to get tight like mine whether from excessive use in fitness or long periods of sitting, foam rolling aids in eliminating tension and, to homage the term, rolling out the muscles and tendons of the entire pelvic cavity. Best practice is to go long and slowwwwwww. In areas were there is extra tightness or tension, take a moment to pause and hold. Allow gravity to do the work and sink in to the arch of the foam roller. I promise, with pain comes progress, use your breath...
