Some of you already know pieces of this. Here's the full picture.
Heading into 2026, I was carrying a weight I couldn't quite name.
Most mornings, anxiety arrived before I did... sitting in my chest the second I woke, like it had been there all night waiting.
I turned to Yoga Nidra the way I first did years ago, during cancer. Back then it was a remedy.
This time, I noticed I was using it the same way again... reaching for it in the moment, but not returning to the depth of the practice itself.
A couple of months ago, that changed. I went to San Pancho to heal my heart, worked with , and met while I was there. I kept going with "the work" after I got home.
And slowly, the ache started to loosen its grip.
I can officially say I've felt the alchemy.
I'm telling you this now because I can finally say I've moved through the morning scaries and the heaviness that lived in my chest. I turned that pain into purpose, the way I always seem to circle back to... And it didn't stop there.
I'm about to start another training with to expand what I can share with all of you — more Nova Nidra recordings, 1:1 work for Members in the Peace in Rest Program, and the Nova Nidra trainings I have coming up now carry a completely different meaning. They keep continuing to open my heart.
The Nova Nidra practice I just released came directly out of all of this.
It's for the nights sleep won't come, the mornings you wake already bracing, the grief that shows up as a weight in your chest you can't quite explain.
If any part of this sounds familiar, this practice was made for exactly that.
