This Is My House: Returning to the Mat After Motherhood
Before my daughter was born, I used to spend seven hours a week on my yoga mat.
I knew my body like an old friend. I could move freely, confidently, intuitively.
My practice was a rhythm I trusted.
Since she came into my world?
Maybe twenty hours in two whole years.
Not because I forgot about yoga.
Not because I gave up on movement.
But because
motherhood changed everything—especially me.

The Body I Knew Feels Different Now
Some days, my hips feel tight.
Some postures don’t land the way they used to.
And when I film the Foundation Series for The Collection, you might even notice that I modify certain shapes.
Because here’s the truth:
I’m not here to perform yoga. I’m here to live it.
And living it means showing up as I am—with a heart cracked wide open by motherhood, and a body still finding its way home.
I Worried That Would Discredit Me
Would people still trust me as a teacher if I wasn’t doing full expressions of every pose?
Would I look like someone who used to practice, instead of someone who still carries yoga in her bones?
But then I realized—this isn’t someone else’s studio.
This isn’t a traditional yoga brand.
This is my house.
And in my house, we honor what’s real.
What If This Is Exactly What You're Craving Too?
Maybe your body feels unfamiliar too.
Maybe your practice has taken a backseat to diapers, dishes, deadlines, or just plain exhaustion.
I created The Collection for you. For us.
For the mothers who want to return—but need a soft landing.
For the women who are tired of hustle culture wellness, and just want a space to
breathe, stretch, and remember who they are.
This Is the New Practice
It’s not about doing more.
It’s about meeting ourselves exactly where we are—and knowing that it’s enough.
It’s not about touching our toes.
It’s about touching back into our truth.
No performance. No pressure.
Just a sanctuary.
Just a path home.
The Collection is open now.
Come join me on the mat—as you are.
There’s room here for your full story.
