‘Nature does not hurry yet everything is accomplished.’ Lao Tzu🌹 🌳 Hey beautiful Reader, 🌙🌺 Wishing you a Happy New Moon and Happy Women's Week, wherever you are! Hope you've had a great start to this year and are feeling inspired and supported. Today, I'm excited to share this special podcast interview I did recently on the Self with Amanda podcast: Awakening Joy and Authentic Expression. In this podcast with Amanda, I share my journeys of moving to Bali, my experiences with running yoga retreats. I discuss the profound connection between trauma and voice loss, the healing power of music, and my process of re-awakening my voice through vocal activation and sound healing. I also dive into my work with Compassionate Inquiry, a program by Gabor Maté aimed at addressing underlying traumas. I talk about my encounters with plant medicine, specifically Ayahuasca, and its role in my healing journey. I also share my passion for helping others awaken their authentic voices through yoga, music, and joy practices, and offer insights into how individuals can connect with their creativity and authentic self-expression. You can check it out on Spotify or YouTube below, or you can find this, and all my recent podcasts and interviews here. Let me know what your take-aways are! This new moon moment is designed to help us tune in and truly listen to our wise inner voice. Some good questions to ponder or journal with for this upcoming cycle: How are you actually feeling right now? How do you want to feel? Are you aligned and in your purpose? Where in your life do you want to feel more free? Where in your life do you feel called to focus your flow? What do you need support with? I'm sending you big love now from Koh Phangan, one of my soul homes, where I'm taking a moment by this glorious sea to pause, reflect, and integrate the past cycle of teaching and sharing at the Yoga Barn in Bali. I am pausing from the rhythm of doing to ask myself these kinds of honest questions and listen for guidance. I taking the time to simple BE, and am ultimately practicing surrendering to the calls of my inner voice and heart. My soul craves and needs these cycles of time out for time in for rest, regeneration, reconnection, re-inspiration, recalibration, and realignment - with nature, with myself, with community. I'm contemplating how I want to grow forward, where I feel called to focus my flow. You too?! I'm excited to virtually reconnect with you here - this beautiful growing global tribe of Yogis, creatives, musicians, mystics - I'm feeling re-inspired to share again with you here; practices, music, and exciting projects and offerings that are happening and upcoming in the Pure Flow world, with the intention that they inspire, educate, resonate, and support you in some way. 🌟 Community is one of my greatest values and joys. For me, one of the greatest gifts of teaching, coaching and sharing is getting to connect with so many incredible people from so many different walks of life, people who like me, are freedom and joy-seekers, who are willing to show up, have fun, play, do the work... This past year has been truly enriching and expansive. I'm truly grateful that I get to share my passions for Yoga, Sound healing & Vocal Activation with hundreds if not thousands of incredible souls, heart-centered curious Yogis like you from around the world. Thank you for being a part of this community. 🙏 With Love, 💖 XOXO Francie P.S. I LOVE hearing from you! Please always feel welcome to reach out anytime and let me know what's inspiring you right now and what you need support with. P.P.S Stay tuned for an exciting announcement in your inbox in the coming days!

What if it all worked out? What if all your dreams came true? What would that feel like? Happy New Moon, beautiful Reader! 🌑🦁✨ I have a journaling ritual for every new and full moon, and I want to invite you into it. Every full and new moon, I set my timer for 20 minutes and allow myself to free-write. This practice isn't a pollyanna approach of only celebrating rainbows and unicorns—instead, it’s a chance to give voice to fears, doubts, and despairs. Even the thoughts we typically label as...
