Today marks 28 years since my mom passed away.
It’s difficult to put into words what it means to have lived so much of my life without her. Grief has changed alongside me throughout the years—sometimes quiet and sometimes impossibly heavy, but always present in some form.
The loss of both my mom and my dad ultimately became the catalyst for creating Hope Yoga. Yoga gave me a place to move through my grief when words weren’t enough. It helped me reconnect with my body, discover strength within myself and begin transforming my pain into resilience. I wanted to create a space where others could experience that same kind of healing while feeling supported by a community.
Although our stories may be different, grief is something we can all understand. We grieve people we have lost, relationships that have changed, seasons that have ended, versions of ourselves we have outgrown and futures that unfolded differently than we imagined. Grief takes many forms—and we were never meant to navigate it alone.
Hope Yoga exists because of loss, but it has grown because of love: the love I continue to carry for my parents and the love, connection and support shared within this community every day.
Each September, I offer our In Remembrance Deals as a way to honor my mom’s life and welcome more people into the healing space that grew from her memory.
