For a long time I’ve lived in a space where wellness has been inaccessible to me. It always felt expensive or uncomfortable because I didn’t see people like me in wellness spaces I tried to go to. There are a few times in my life I have felt seen, heard, and appreciated. United Yoga is one space where I felt it was accessible to me and also felt a sense of belonging. In the UY community I was able to take up space as me and unapologetically. My dear friend nominated me for the Community Care award for the cresent moon yoga retreat hosted by Michelle and Marina from the United Collective and I got it!!!! I was fed, loved, and mothered by Caroline and Corinne. I got to share space in the dessert and dance a silent disco, with a freedom my spirit yearned for. Being able to experience this retreat felt divinely placed in my life at the right time to receive an abundance of love, wisdom and grace. This retreat has brought me a newfound appreciation for myself & I am so grateful to have been chosen.
