Ellelle

Hello! It’s been a while. Things went on hold to bring my darling miss Daisy into the world. My energy was entirely soaked up creating this little human, I had zero left for much else. Hence going on a complete hiatus with ellelle. As of now, I’m not sure which direction this account/project will take, but I feel it’s time to resurrect it. All things Ayurveda, coaching, yoga, pranayam, navigating mamahood, navigating ADHD, maybe I’ll finally download some of my recipes? And maybe none of it all🤷‍♀️. Perhaps this is a one time post to wish a happy and healthy 2023! Lots of love, Linny xo

About a year has past since I took this pic and about a year has past since I started this account. This process of creation has given me the opportunity to discover so much about myself. There have been highs and lows, much nurturing, self questioning, backtracking, forward momentum and surrendering. I continue to put one foot in front of the other and trust in the process of following my heart.

I’ve been slow at providing much of any content (sorry, for real, I’ve got lots of goods to share), as I’ve been busy behind the scenes.

Finding many magic moments such as this one ☝️ , watching the sunset over Whistler from the peak of Blackcomb all the while falling in love 💗 with my person, having my insanely wonderful family move from around the world now all within arms reach/across the street/15 minute drive , deepening my teaching practice at the cozy studio in Whistler Village , hosting a heart opening/mind bending retreat with my bestest of friends , continuing my learning of Ayurveda virtually bring the Himalayas to the Pacific Coastals with , living more creatively and dismissing off the Artist’s way with a group of incredibly inspiring women, and becoming a certified life coach with . Nature continued to inspire as did all the love that surrounded me. My heart is so full, and when I thought it couldn’t grown anymore, I find out I have even more coming, due August 20th 🤰

If you made it this far through my sappy sharing, 🤙. 22022022, it’s a cool date, similar to the date I began ellelle, 12022021 where I committed to doing this for a year. I continue this commitment for another year. I have a push pull relationship with social media, maybe you’ll see more of me this year, maybe not? I just promise to still show up. Sending so much love! Xoxoxo

So, what’s Ayurveda? It encompasses absolutely everything, from the windstorms and deep freeze in the midst of winter, to the food on your plate and your ever-changing moods.

Ayur (means life) Veda (means knowledge or science)

A timeless science that has transcended through the ages, having just as much relevance today as it did 5000+ years ago when it was first recorded.

It’s a comprehensive science of life. It is so much more than what foods, herbs and medicine are best for us. Medical science is only one part of it. You can’t take care of your health simply with meds and supplements, you need to take care of your entire Self in a holistic manner. ‘We must learn to live properly first. To talk properly. Observe. To know the purpose of this life which is the goal of this life. If there is no clarity in our lives, then it’s nearly impossible to be healthy.’ -says my wise teacher Dr. Sharma

Hence the importance of Ayurveda during this ongoing saga that began back in 2019. Prevention is key to a happy healthy life. Stay tuned for more nuggets into this ancient science and how to live life through a deeper understanding to absolutely everything that surrounds and makes up who we are.

Heyo! I did it. Took advantage of the picture perfect logs at Joffre to pose for a clutch yoga pose for the gram. There’s a reason behind it other than just testing my balance on a log. I’m starting to teach at Whistler’s only Yoga Studio Yogacara! My first class is this Saturday, and I’ll be teaching Hatha at 4:30pm for the next 4 Saturdays after that. Come on up to feel the tranquility and grounding of these incredible mountains! Om. 🙏

This full harvest moon in Pisces has me trusting in the flow, that all good things are naturally drifting towards us. Even when it comes to the flow of glacier runoff. I wrote a piece on our melting glaciers for (the environmental non-profit I’m volunteering with) and the aftermath of the latest IPCC report. Head over to ellelle.ca/blog if you care to learn more.
