Looking back to move forward

January 4, 2021January 4, 2021 DevanyFaith, Inspiration, Life, Yoga

I know many of us would rather skip all forms of reflection because 2020 was such a dumpster fire. It hurt. It took. It challenged. It overwhelmed.  But I think our reflection can hold space for our grief and our […]

Are you sinking?

September 2, 2020September 2, 2020 DevanyFaith, Inspiration

We’ve had a week where some unexpected changes left me feeling a little unsteady on my feet. Change can do that to me. It makes me feel like I’m losing control and for me, this loss feels a lot like […]

Does God seem hidden right now?

August 5, 2020August 5, 2020 DevanyFaith, Inspiration, Uncategorized

Walks have been my saving grace. This is the path down the hill from my house that I like to escape to when things feel crazy or I’m yearning to connect with God or He feels far away. Many of […]

What is rest anyway?

July 9, 2019July 24, 2019 DevanyInspiration, Life, Motherhood, Rest, Uncategorized

It’s clear to me that rest has physical and spiritual aspects. I know this because I can be physically or spiritually tired, or both.  For example, I’m physically tired after a day filled with my kids’ activities along with piles […]

Summer Bucket Lists… Can Wear a Mom Out

June 25, 2019June 25, 2019 DevanyInspiration, Life, Motherhood

Summer is finally here! That means more time for patio-sitting, pool-swimming, mountain-hiking and book-reading. The days are beginning to lengthen, the sun shines longer and my soul feels lighter. I feel lighter but also tired. How is it I feel […]

If you are like me, it’s hardest to be kind towa If you are like me, it’s hardest to be kind towards my own mistakes.

...and that's thanks to perfectionism.

Perfectionism says, "if I'm perfect I'll avoid all feelings of pain, shame and judgment."

But the truth is... pain, shame and mistakes are all part of the human condition, so what do we do?

What if we lay down the lie that we can be perfect, and pick up the truth that the One who is perfect offers His yoke to support & guide us.

If Jesus can look at our imperfections with compassion, then so can we.

We've begun our 8-week yoga series based on Brene We've begun our 8-week yoga series based on Brene Brown’s: Book: The Gifts of Imperfection and Guidepost #1 was a GOOD one!

Cultivating Authenticity means we practice showing up as our true selves. It's a choice, not a personality trait!

This is hard & vulnerable and that’s why I think we'd rather hustle for our worthiness out in the world..through proving and performing...instead of walking in our true identity.

When we remember our worth is our belovedness...we can rest in our true identity in God and be authentic! Now that brings forth an exhale💚

Last year was far from perfect... And if you’re Last year was far from perfect...

And if you’re like me, I know I didn’t handle things perfectly & I was uncomfortable having my imperfections exposed. But I heard a pastor say that the pandemic exposed what was already there. And I think he was right. 

My imperfections were always there, but the high pressure caused them to surface more obviously and more frequently. So what do we do with that?

What if we practice embracing ALL of our story & allow God to transform us through the process? 

Join me in an 8 week yoga series based on Brene Brown’s book “The Gifts of Imperfection.” 

You don’t have to attend every class to participate!

Come as you are and when you can…. grace abounds here.

I know many of us would rather skip all forms of r I know many of us would rather skip all forms of reflection because 2020 was such a dumpster fire. It hurt. It took. It challenged.  It overwhelmed. 

But I think our reflection can hold space for our grief and our pain as well as our thanksgiving and our hope. 

In my experience, I’ve found  it’s when I look back that I can see God most clearly. It’s in hindsight that I can trace His movement and see all the ways He held me close, even when I feared He was far. 

 Don’t we all have 20/20 vision in the rear view mirror!? 

Let’s look back together. 

What have you learned? 
What have you released? 
What do you desire?

As I’ve looked back on 2020, I found the gift of less.

I’ll be honest, at first it felt more like an uninvited heartache that I couldn’t control as I watched the world encounter less certainty, less unity and less security. In my own life it meant less people, less activity and less connection. All of it broke my heart, But with the less - there also came more. More of what was right before me. (Click link in my bio to read more)!

🧘‍♀️🙏Yoga is one of my favorite spaces for reflection and connection to God. Come join for a special time of looking back to move forward and receive God’s invitation for you in 2021!

Christmas is upon us! 🎄 This is the week of Adv Christmas is upon us! 🎄 This is the week of Advent where we light our candle for love. ❤️ 

What does love look like for you this year? 

In year’s past, I’ve clung to the sentiment of love. I think it’s easy to ride the emotion of love when I’m surrounded by loved ones and can feel the energy buzzing around the room.

But this year, as we are more disconnected or facing a much different Christmas, what does love look like now?

~ What if love is less of a performance and more of a posture.
A posture of open-heartedness, where we believe we are held in love and trustingly allow Christ’s love to flow in us and through us.

~ What if love is less of a sentiment and more of a force? One that connects us and draws us together, no matter how many attempts there are to put it out.

~ What if love is more choice than chance? Can we choose to allow God’s love take on whatever shape, form, act, person or circumstance that He has planned.

♥️ One thing is for certain, and that is that we are loved outrageously by God. This is both our identity and our reality and may it be what shines brightly this Christmas, and is realized in the birth of Christ 🌟 

Join us for our final advent class tomorrow on love! May we practice the posture of love this week of Christmas! (Link in bio to sign up!)
In the third week of Advent, we light our joy cand In the third week of Advent, we light our joy candle.

This season, I pray you can be clear-eyed about all of your realities and see that Jesus enters into ALL of them with you. Your outside life doesn’t have to be put-together, successful or “going well” to prove that Jesus is near.

Jesus came once and continues to come into every moment of your life. Even when you feel that you are at the end, Jesus promises a grand finale. This is our joy 💚 

 “Joy to the world, the Lord has come.
Let earth receive her King.”

May you receive the King of Glory in the earthly moments of your life today. Just as Mary and Joseph did, thousands of years ago.

Join us for a time of receiving Christ’s presence in ZOOM Soul Yoga class Tuesday morning 6a-630a! (Link to sign up in bio) I can’t wait to see you!

For me, joy has looked like walks with my daughter, elf on the shelf and her outfit choices. Big joy comes in small ways these days :) How about you!?

May we prepare our hearts to receive God's glory, right here, in the ordinary moments of our day. God delivered Christ to Mary in the middle of her ordinary day hundreds of years ago and I believe He still does the same for us.

** Bring 2 blocks!
In a time when we've lost what was, and feelings o In a time when we've lost what was, and feelings of scarcity begin to sneak in, I was reminded that "enough" is the antidote to scarcity.

This Thanksgiving week, I found small moments of "enough" in turkey legs, a lit candle, a good book by the fire, snuggles, and a crisp blue sky.

As you face hardship, loss and uncertainty - I pray you remember that our God is faithful and His heart is with you! 

Join me for Zoom Soul Yoga tomorrow at 6am - and let's look forward to tomorrow, with God, in hope! {Click to sign up in bio!}
