Farmers market bounty! The nectarines and plums are amazing right now. Got these from Kasewashi Farm at Lakeshore yesterday and wanted to snap a pic before I demolish all of them. Say bye!

A few quiet moments above Rodeo Beach this afternoon. My heart so tender and open it makes a low foghorn sound as the wind blows through it. Letting myself feel everything. Sometimes it's almost too much.

Found one of my favorite quotes inside a chocolate bar wrapper. Always a good reminder from Rumi.

A little afternoon hooping fun. Just re-wrapped one of my old hoops so I had to try it out. Seems to be in good working order. #loveyourbody #trustyourpleasure #52waystoloveyourbody

What if your pleasure is trustworthy? Listen to pleasure and learn its wisdom. By tuning into my pleasure, I enjoy and then notice when it's gone...it gently tells me when it's time to stop, let go, and move on. #trustyourpleasure #loveyourbody #52waystoloveyourbody

The Buddha, the mirror, and me...hmm. Sounds like a book title, huh? Sweet retreat complete at Lotus Feed Farm...headed home to the bay. The take home? Loving yourself isn't always easy, but it's worth the effort. #loveyourbody #trustyourpleasure #52waystoloveyourbody #lovingkindness

My body is loving this glamping bed on the Love Your Body retreat. Got some allergies going on that need some extra rest, so a pile of pillows feels like heaven. My nose might be runny, but my heart feels full. #loveyourbody #trustyourpleasure #lovingkindness #52waystoloveyourbody (at The Lotus Feed)

Almost ready to go to the Love Your Body retreat tomorrow! I've got roses, body scrubs, snacks, and two more classes to teach--tonight and tomorrow morning--and then off for a body-lovin' weekend! #loveyourbody #52waystoloveyourbody #trustyourpleasure #lovingkindness

Your body is right and good. Always doing the best it can. Even when sick, hurt, tired, or confused. You are not wrong. It is not wrong. #loveyourbody #52waystoloveyourbody #lovingkindness

I've gotten a lot of requests to post this beautiful poem from Jeff Foster I shared in class a couple weeks ago. It's even more applicable now than ever. May it inspire and warm your heart. #lovingkindness
