Our April theme of rebirth culminates with the full moon on April 22nd, calling us to step into our new and bright self! As it has been waxing, you may have experienced rapid change and growth in yourself and those around you. Now is the time to shine with new radiance!

Waxing moon above budding green.
This full moon, meditate on your unique self. Notice what lies inside of you and take the time to give yourself gratitude! Create space in your life to shine...

How can you embody your own radiance? How can you allow your light to illuminate your path? How can this light be shared to benefit your community?

Part of creating space may mean taking a break from your normal routine. At Kula Collective, we are so excited to provide you with many opportunities to shine your unique light! Here are five ways for you to step into your true self:

1. Write yourself a letter of gratitude. Write for as long as you like and then put the letter away. In a day or two, go into nature and read this letter out loud to yourself three times.

2. Explore a new place. This could be a new place in your town or a new place in the world. Kula offers retreats in stunning locations all over the world.

3. Challenge yourself with something new. This can be as simple as trying a new yoga pose. Every week on our Facebook, we offer a new yoga pose, stay connected with us to learn each week!

4. Offer at least one practice of Karma each day. Karma is selfless service and we can offer this in small ways like offering someone your seat or leaving flowers for a friend. Kula's Karma program just held another Karma day for the small Caribbean community of Gandoca, exchanging community service and intercultural learning during our Training at Punta Mona.

5. Do something life changing. Our 25 day Yoga Alliance certified immersion Yoga Teacher Trainings are guaranteed to change your perspective on life. Step into the world with us!

Blessings of love & light,

6 Easy & Essential Steps After Your Yoga Teacher Training
by Joanna Cohen


I remember the very San Francisco hill I was climbing when I called to sign up for my first yoga teacher training. No part of me planned to become a yoga teacher. I had a full-time job I loved and a career path in marketing that excited me. I was traveling often (as I was on that day) and I simply hoped to deepen my yoga practice: to go beyond what drop-in classes offered and to free myself from the constant need for a studio.

From Corporate to Kula pt. 2/3

I then went to research the daily schedule. Up before sunrise to start meditation by 6.30am. A completely full day of yoga practice, yoga instruction, yoga history and teachings, anatomy, assignments, journaling, shamanic ceremony or other meditation in the evening.
