The Studio Outside

Ahhh, the power and magic of an actual letter. Today's is love as correspondence. If you have a letter-writer in your life, you know love. I, blessedly, know several. Today I am feeling powerful love in letters.

Sometimes LOVE is anything but subtle.
And still,
the 🎁 is easy to overlooked
or
take for granted.
I started my day off here,
with love
bounding on 4 legs and
down 🐕s and
down dogs and
✨️JOY✨️!!

Know why my sidewalk is clear of snow? Because my neighbor,
un-asked
not paid
just because
cleared it for me.
Feels like "Love thy neighbor" in action to me!

Mountain Wisdom flows here. 💚🤍🧡❤️

After deep reflection, we’ve made the heartfelt decision to open the land that has been home to CYS to new stewards. Our property is listed publicly for sale. Realtor MLS listing in bio.

This transition is not an ending—it’s an evolution.

Our work continues through:
✦ Online programs & circles
✦ Hosted trainings & retreats across the country
✦ And, if the land remains through winter, a final in-person year in 2026.

This land has been our teacher. Now, we listen to what’s next.

With gratitude for every soul who’s practiced here — and for all the ways the Shala will continue to live through you.

Excited for October!
