Lunar New Year: Dance Ceremony
With Leah Fae & Shelley Paul Friday January 20th 7:30PM-9:30PM @ Be Yoga & Wellness in Burlington Don’t feel like you’ve fully landed into 2023? It might be because the moon is still in 2022... The lunar calendar follows the cycles of the moon. New Moons represent fresh starts, they invite us to set intentions that can be carried by the growing energy and light of the moon. This first new moon of the year is extra potent as intentions you set here will be carried though the year. |
Re-awaken your primal instinctual self through the journey of dance.
Let the wisdom of your body take the lead in this free form ecstatic movement journey. Using breath, body awareness, rhythm, sound and music to re-awaken the ancient wisdom your mind may have forgotten but your cells have known since before time began.
Together we can shake off the residue from 2022 and welcome in 2023 on this first new moon of the year.

Together we can shake off the residue from 2022 and welcome in 2023 on this first new moon of the year.
I am so excited to be attending and facilitating a Kundalini Yoga class at this incredible Music, Yoga and Love Festival. I believe it is extremely valuable (especially in these times) to gather with like minded humans and have our reservoir refilled. This year's theme is Peace Love, Unity and Respect. Something we all need.
In my Kundalini yoga class we'll use the practice as a leaver for manifestation. We'll play with mantra, breath, rhythmic moment, and focus to align and expand our energy field, drop into presence and activate the heart. From this place of deep connection to the unified field we will seed a prayer for Peace Love, Unity and Respect on the micro and macro level. Expect a combination of seated and standing physical postures and seated meditation. This class will include live music with my partner Richard Bryant.

Kirtan
Leah Fae, Richard Bryant & Friends
Saturday April 30th, 7:15 - 9:15
* Sliding Scale $15-$45*
Join Leah Fae on Harmonium and Richard Bryant on Guitar, with other musical friends for a night of Kirtan. Kirtan, a musical meditation, is a form of Bhakti yoga – often referred to as the yoga of devotion. The root of Bhakti is bhaj- to share or to love. We’ll start with breath work, followed by exercises to warm up our voices. Then we’ll begin to chant, the repetition of sound helps to focus the mind, making it easier to let go of the thinking mind.
“When we sing together, our hearts start to beat together.”
-Thomas Stark, The Book of Mind
No vocal training required. Just come and let the sound current, rhythm and melody create space for a new vibration to wash through your psyche. It’s a beautiful thing when we can let go of the self-consciousness of singing with people – some of whom you may have never met – and allow our voice to blend with the group. When we sing together something magical happens, our hearts sync and begin to beat together. Singing is powerful medicine, the vibrations created when we sing release a cocktail of wonderful feel good hormones that create a blissful natural high! These ancient chants contain powerful renewing and transformative energy that help to reconnect us with the Divinity that resides within. We’ll conclude the gathering with a Gong bath.

I AM : An Inward Journey
Saturday, February 26th 4-6pm
$40
The Eye is a window, a portal, a microcosm of the universe itself. What to you see in your own eye?
Join Leah Fae on an intimate experiential journey to deepen your connection with your essential I Am.
The light which shines in the eye
is really the light of the heart.
The light which fills the heart
is the light of God, which is pure
and separate from the light of intellect and sense. - Rumi
What to Expect
- Embodied movement, to bring you into your body and heart
- Breathwork, to expand awareness and create inner connection
- Yoga Nidra, to access to the subconscious and hypnogogic state
- Guided Eye Gazing mirror meditation, to build a deep intimate connection to your self.
- Sacred sound, for emotional release
- Journaling/Sharing, to help integrate your experience
The culture we find our selves in today can favour the intellect and obscure the wisdom of the heart. If we look into our hearts we may find a longing for intimacy with ourselves. If the eyes are the “window to the soul” then we have a simple way to connect deeply with our own longing for authenticity and Self-knowledge.

“Unveiling HerVision” is about you, the busy woman, taking time to nurture your Feminine.
(by going inward, calling in gratitude, connecting to your truth, opening up to receive, getting support) and then claiming your Masculine energies of action, clarity, and creating what you desire.
As busy women, some of this Feminine energy is missing… and that is part of what’s causing frustration, sadness, and burn-out.
Imagine …
Space holding + Sisterhood + Support for your heart vision
Imagine …
Time to tune in + Time to reflect +Time to explore your truth
Imagine …
Feeling Clear + Confident + Committed to your desires
Imagine …
Sacred sisterhood + Safe space + Sharing and celebrating in sacred circle
Visionary sisterhood is being remembered because it’s needed now more than ever.
Are you ready to…
• Ground into your vision for 2019
• Step into clarity
• Connect to your body, voice, truth, and power
• Come together with the tribe of ladies to feel the power of one woman/one tribe/one community
• Share your vision
• Celebrate the old and bring in the new
• Allow yourself to be cocooned in a bubble of love
It’s time to release the stress, the worry, the fear and step into your calling for 2019 with clarity, support, and love!
This event is limited, so if your body wisdom is talking to you right now and telling you this is what you need— we invite you to trust and act on your intuition and join the community of amazing women ready to support you and your vision.

Join Leah Fae on Harmonium and Richard Bryant on Guitar for a musical meditation. Kirtan, a form of Bhakti yoga – often referred to as the yoga of devotion. The root of Bhakti is bhaj- to share or to love. With the repetition of the words, one is able to lose themselves in the rhythm and the melody, allowing a new vibration to wash through the psyche. It’s a beautiful thing to let go of self-consciousness of singing with people – some of whom you may have never met – and allow your voice to blend with the group. The ancient chants contain powerful renewing & transformative energy that helps us reconnect with the Divinity that resides within all of us.

Emotions are the last frontier of self-awareness, our least understood faculty.
Emotions are a direct link to our deepest self, physical sensations that contain messages in a language we were never taught to understand or worse to fear and repress. Emotions are our passion, our drive, our life blood, they make us feel alive!
Emotional Intelligence is the ability to experience the full range of human emotions; to HAVE emotions, to feel them but not to BECOME them.
Self - Awareness is the keystone to emotional intelligence; The conscious knowledge of one's true character, feelings, motives, and desires. Kundalini Yoga develops a relationship with the Self. It's the Yoga of awareness.
Emotional intelligence is built using the yogic teaching of non-attachment, which is very different from detachment.
Non-attachment is a practice of witnessing all experiences from a neutral place, not allowing your sense of well-being to be swayed by everything that appears to you; people, places, perceptions, thoughts, sensations, events and experiences.
Detachment on the other hand, means to distance oneself from the world out of disinterest or fear - a barrier to separate oneself from the rest of the world and the feelings associated with human interaction. Essentially, it's an escape from feeling.
Feelings are scary sometimes, they are intense because they want our attention. Emotion is the language of our intuition - our internal GPS that wants to guide us toward bliss and purpose.
Starting March 7th, I am teaching a 9 week series to cultivating emotional intelligence. Using Kundalini yoga, body awareness, breathing techniques, visualization and reflective journaling, we will strengthen our most important relationship, the one with our Self.
