About Me

i know now that my body does not contain all of me, which explains the way things go down---basically, everyday, i'm working on some serious inner-exploration, feeling the universal rhythm...and lovin on everybody, if they'll let me;) am a certified yoga teacher & teach privately at my lovely loft, near pratt institute in brooklyn (see *blog for details), as well as at the integral yoga institute in manhattan, every other saturday at 5:30, and at yin yang yoga in bedstuy, every tuesday at 6. i'm a singer & pianist, really tuned to a certain musical channel these days. check some live tracks of the discarnate band here:
www.myspace.com/thediscarnateband"clear and sweet is my soul, and clear and sweet is all that is not my soul. lack one lacks both, and the unseen is proved by the seen, till that becomes unseen and receives proof in its turn.showing the best and dividing it from the worst age vexes age, knowing the perfect fitness and equanimity of things, while they discuss I am silent, and go bathe and admire myself." ~ walt whitmanI edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

parallel dimensions, self preservation, the integrity of the moment, auras, detachment, frequencies, culminating vibrations together, fresh food that grows from the earth, real water that replenishes health, egypt, atlantis, avalon, new orleans, monserrat, vermont, new mexico, missouri, virginia, mountains, waterfalls, the white buffalo, dancing in brazil, the french riviera, layers of chocolate, the perfect silence, friendly&wise doggies/kitties, making a yogic life out of a musician's, photos, stars, sound tweaking playmates, progress toward our true selves, solitude, feeling like a woman, giving the world some love, humility

I'd like to meet:

my true self: we've met a few times, but i'd like to hang out more, seriously...wandering monks, gurus, world leaders, hallways of light---men who love courageously... and work toward the bigger picture, outside of themselves.also, all the beautiful women of the world who are ready to show their hidden strength and understanding---move on through to the feminine era now~! west meets east-male meets female-death meets a new kind of life---ya won't find all that in an f-ing reality tv show
