Altadena & Aparigraha: Letting Go of What Burned

Learning to live without what we thought we'd never lose.

Originally released in January, 2025 - the month the fires changed many lives in Los Angeles. God is Change. January has been a meat cleaver to the soul.

In this intimate and raw episode, I reflect on the devastating loss of my beloved mountain town, Altadena.

I talk about what it's like to adjust to life in the desert with my aging pets, the comfort of sunlit silence, and the deep spiritual principle of aparigraha—non-attachment—as both balm and challenge in the face of grief.

This is about using yoga to handle the seasons and start again. Again.

JOIN THE PATREON!!!! Help an Altadena girlie thrive :)
