School of Sacred Practice
Where the power of practice becomes devotion to the woman you're meant to be
Your life is sacred.
Your vision for the woman you are becoming is fertile ground.
And yet, you probably know this pattern all too well. You long for the practices that nourish you—movement, meditation, breath, contemplation. They’re the things that steady you, that remind you of who you are.
But when life gets full and overwhelming, those very practices are the first to slip away. Instead, you find yourself saying yes to busy-ness and obligation when your whole body is whispering no. You override your desires, push past your own truth, and put everyone else’s needs at the front of the line.
It’s exhausting, isn’t it? And it quietly keeps the wound of “not enough” alive.
Here’s what I know: when life feels like too much, your practices aren’t a luxury. They’re not optional. They’re the ground that roots you in your worth, your clarity, your ability to choose what’s right for you.
That’s why I created The School of Sacred Practice—a 9-week container of community where embodied practice, coaching, and support weave together so you can stop abandoning yourself and begin living resourced, steady, and on your own side.
Welcome to the School of Sacred Practice.
“Practice, and all is coming.” -Pattabhi Jois
Most of us know what it’s like to drop into a yoga class, or open a meditation app, and feel a little better for a while. But the real magic of practice isn’t in the hour on the mat or the ten minutes on the cushion—it’s how those practices reshape who you are when you move back into your life.
The School of Sacred Practice isn’t a class you take and then check off your list. It’s a living rhythm that supports you in becoming the woman you want to be—the one who listens to her body, trusts her truth, and shows up steady, present, and resourced for her dreams.
That’s why we practice together. Not to get better at poses or techniques, but to weave intention, breath, movement, and reflection into the very fabric of your life.
Because the woman you want to be doesn’t appear out of thin air. She arrives through practice.
It's Me, Nona
I know this journey intimately because I've lived it. In my twenties, I was chaotic and anxious with zero spiritual practices. I knew I wasn't acting in my own best interests, but had no idea how to change. My first yoga class at 24 was what truly set me on the path of transformation through practice.
Through yoga, I began to understand how practice could be transformative. The real shift came when I learned to extend that sacred approach beyond the mat—how to make the mundane rhythms of life sacred. From the way I move my body to how I handle money, from spiritual practices to daily routines, I discovered that sustainable change happens through embodied practice.
Over the past two decades, my body has been my most reliable guide through addiction recovery (I've been sober for 23 years), chronic pain, building a thriving business, moving all over the world, parenting a wonderful human, and healing from trauma. My body taught me that the path to joy doesn't require suffering, and that true strength comes from listening, not pushing.
This is why I created the School of Sacred Practice: because I know firsthand what it's like to abandon yourself again and again, hoping it will make you worthy. And I know the freedom that comes when you finally learn to be on your own side—through practice, support, and community.
My background as a master coach with a psychology degree, yoga therapist, energy healing practitioner, and former CPA means I understand both the practical and the mystical. I know what it takes to create sustainable transformation that actually changes your life.
We begin with intention.
Every season begins with a simple ritual: creating a personal altar and setting your intention.
Your altar doesn’t have to be fancy—it might be a candle and a handwritten note, or a small collection of objects that remind you of what matters most. What’s important is that it becomes a touchstone for your energy and your commitment to yourself.
Because transformation always begins with intention. By naming the woman you are becoming and creating a small physical reminder of her, you’re saying: I matter. My life is meaningful. I choose to be on my own side.
We gather to bring that intention alive through practice, refinement, and integration.
Embodied Practice
Five weeks are devoted to embodied practice—somatic movement, breathwork, yoga nidra, and deep rest plus time for connection and community.
Reflect & Refine
Three weeks are dedicated to teaching and coaching—where we explore guiding principles to shine a light on your patterns, and look at how practice is supporting your daily rhythms.
Integrate
You'll integrate practice by moving through the world in greater creative response rather than reactive patterns. Over time, your life becomes sacred practice itself.
Why The School of Sacred Practice Now?
We’re living through a collective unraveling of the world as we’ve known it. Life often feels heavy, uncertain, and overwhelming. Our bodies—wise vessels that they are—are carrying so much: stress, grief, uncertainty, the constant hum of “what’s next?”
And sister—your joy, your vision, and your well-being matter deeply right now.
That’s why this work is more than self-care. It’s the foundation that allows you to move through these times with steadiness, clarity, and presence.
As you move through the School, you’ll notice shifts that ripple into every part of your life:
You’ll listen to your body’s signals and honor them instead of pushing past.
Your daily rhythms will begin to feel meaningful—whether it’s how you start your morning or how you make choices about money, work, and relationships.
You’ll take action with clarity and calm, instead of from reactivity.
You’ll feel genuinely resourced—not because life is suddenly easy, but because you have practices that steady you.
You’ll move through the world with more presence, joy, and trust in yourself.
This is what happens when you stop abandoning yourself and begin to fiercely be on your own side—through practice, reflection, and integration that meet you where you are and support you in where you’re going.
What Makes This Different
The School of Sacred Practice is not your weekly yoga class. It’s not a meditation app. It’s not another self-paced program you’ll struggle to finish.
This is body–mind medicine for our times.
Yoga is energy medicine. It enlivens the deep knowing that lives in your bones, awakens the intuition buried under daily survival, and reconnects you with the wisdom your body has always held. When you stand up from our sessions, refreshed and nourished, you’ll feel clear about what matters most to you and for you.
Our weekly sessions are built on therapeutic yoga—breath, movement, and stillness that offer deeply compassionate embodiment practices that help you:
Release tension and stress. Our shoulders, backs, and nervous systems are literally carrying the weight of a world in upheaval. Gentle practices that actually release this tension (rather than adding pressure to “fix” yourself) offer real relief when everything else feels overwhelming.
See your patterns clearly. Old strategies like people-pleasing, pushing through, and ignoring your body may have helped you survive, but they don’t serve who you’re becoming. Practice helps you unravel those patterns so you can respond to life instead of react.
Stay present with complexity. These times require us to hold grief and joy, collapse and possibility, fear and hope—all at once. Practice builds your capacity to stay with what’s real without being overwhelmed by it.
Trust your body’s wisdom. In an age of information overload, your body knows what’s true for you before your mind catches up. These practices reconnect you with your inner truth so you can make aligned choices with more ease.
Practice power with, not power over your own sweet body. When we learn to move with our bodies rather than against them, we don’t just heal ourselves—we model a different way of being. We become living examples of the collaborative, compassionate world we want to create. The personal truly is political, and it starts in the body.
This isn't just movement—it's medicine for navigating life in these times.
Are you ready to enrol in The School?
From January 8 – March 12, 2026, we’ll move through winter together with a rhythm that mirrors real life: practice, reflection, integration, rest.
Here’s how it flows:
Two weeks of embodied practice. We’ll gather for 75-minute sessions of therapeutic movement, breath, and stillness. These aren’t typical yoga classes—they’re slow, intentional practices designed around the month’s theme. Each session includes time for check-ins and integration, so you leave feeling grounded and supported.
One week of coaching + community. This is where we connect the dots. We’ll gather for a 60-minute call to reflect, share, and explore how the practices are showing up in your daily life—your choices, your relationships, your rhythms. It’s part coaching, part community circle, and often where the biggest insights land.
One week of integration. This is your chance to make the practice your own—to carry it into your life without the group, noticing what shifts when you’re not held every week. You’ll have prompts, gentle guidance, and space to explore how your practice belongs to you..
This cycle repeats through the winter, giving you both consistency and spaciousness—a rhythm of support that strengthens your capacity to practice on your own, while still being held in community.
Over nine weeks, you’ll learn to listen more deeply to your body’s language, honor its rhythms, and discover the quiet strength that comes when you stop forcing and start practicing compassion with yourself.
The School of Sacred Practice isn’t a class. It’s a seasonal container that helps you move through the world with presence, discernment, and fierce compassion—for the woman you are becoming.
School is in Session January 8th - March 12th

What women say about this work
“I swear there is one thing that emerges from each session that literally changes my relationship with life.
And the best part is that it’s deepening my embodiment practices in such a gentle and profound way. I know I’ll forever carry what I’ve learned and practiced with Nona’s mastery of mind, body, and spirit. The work helped to ease specific pain in my body while restoring me to a more natural state of balance. I couldn’t recommend this kind of body-centered healing enough.”
-Stacey Andon, Master Coach
“Therapeutic group sessions with Nona have been such an impactful, healing experience.
As someone with an autoimmune condition and chronic pain, I’ve learned so much about listening to my body’s signals rather than pushing past them. The live sessions and community in between helped me relearn how to be with this sweet body that I inhabit. I loved the way Nona wove everyone’s needs together while still honoring each of us as whole. The circle of goodness she creates is something rare and deeply supportive.”
-Helen Samson Mullen, PhD.
“Working with Nona has been such a healing experience.
The combination of coaching with movement was exactly what I needed while navigating new territory in my life. Her approach is gentle, wise, and deeply supportive.”
-Jennifer Visitacion, Leadership Coach
Frequently Asked Questions
-
I will record the sessions, but given the nature of the classes via Zoom, it's simply better if you can be there in person.
Also, this isn't just a movement class - we begin and end every class with connection and reflection. Though movement is how we spend a large part of any given session the connection itself is part of the empowering, healing equation. You will benefit from being there and so will we. -
Former students often tell me that the groups I bring together are some of the safest they’ve ever experienced. I strive to create safety through consent and personal autonomy for everyone. However, that doesn’t mean you won’t be uncomfortable because that is often (if not always) part of our growth and learning.
If you have questions about feeling safe, please reach out. I’m happy to speak with you about your concerns and address them. -
The investment you make for the The School is non-refundable.
