Hi sweet friend,
My name is Lotus. I am so honored you’re here and want to connect deeper.
I am a deep feeling Woman of the Womb; for as long as I can remember connecting to the Spirit of the world and the Oracle of Feminine has called me forward.
The divine dance of life inspires me to stay humble, playful and disciplined to integrate and share what I find within the world.
We are all constantly going through cycles of shedding and rebirth like the snake.
The tools in my medicine bag that I call upon to help me on my journey are Yoga, Ayurveda, Herbalism, Sound Facilitation(healing) & plant medicine.
Within this journey I have gone to places I would have never imagined.. physically, emotionally and spiritually.
The deepest medicine I have received is the wisdom walking towards the shadows with a torch of light in hand, alchemizing.
I am a breathing example that a Lotus grows from the mud.
“Only by discovering and Loving the Goddess within our own rejected body, can we hear our own authentic voice.” - Marion Woodman
How I began..
Growing up I always felt different.. tapped into something more than the physical eye can see.
I often had vision and just “knew things”, visits from guides, spirit beings and ancestors.
At age 11 I asked my parents to send me to Catholic school. I felt God was calling me closer. Though my family was not religious, I became immersed in the church, sang in the choir and did volunteer work. My heart beamed when in service of others. I knew there was so much more to life than the day to day human experience.
I found yoga at 17 years old, and fully dived into the life embodiment of Yoga more than just asana at age 19. It was through the Yoga Practice I realized- God is real. I was the source of infinite Love, safety & healing. It was all within ME.
I became a Yoga Teacher at age 20 and my passions were lit on fire. I immersed myself into the world that my soul guiding me towards.
I began traveling all over the world to dive deeper into Yoga, Meditation, Herbalism, Ayurveda, Shamanism, Reiki, Sound Healing and sustainable living.
I was finding out who I was more than just the human recognition of self but rather the Soul that was within.
Of course here is the catch.. we are not just light beings.
We all have shadow, pain & suffering.
While I was having so much fun in my life, building community, traveling the world and studying; I was met with many reflections- you cannot hide from yourself.
My traumas were revealed to me and how they effected my daily life; my fears, blocks, patterns, anxieties and self sabotaging behaviors.
I was suffering with wounds that I had not fully faced.. abandonment, a dis-regulated childhood, codependency, people pleasing, leaky sexual energy and a disorganized anxious nervous system with CPTSD.
My open wounds led me to self harm, painful patterns, external validation and suffering.
In order to become the Woman I dreamed of becoming, I had to confront all of my past versions.
Through this I realized my own strength. I am not a victim, I am a warrior.
By showing up for myself, transformation and regulation started to unfold.
I became the woman that I wish I had when I was a young girl.
Service to oneself, service to others, is service to God.
This devotion is a direct mirror to all of the healing and abundance you have within yourself too.
I currently live On Long Island NY, teaching Yoga, hosting Retreats & circles, facilitating sound baths and working with private clients.
I specialize in Womban’s Work and am currently deepening my study of Doula Work.
I spend my time sitting in the sun, practicing yoga, prayer, exploring nature, singing, dancing, thrifting for my love of vintage fashion, reading, gardening, herbal work, cooking & sharing meals with loved ones.
