INTRODUCING
The Devotion Lab
The Devotion Lab is a series of guided practice spaces designed to support your energetic recalibration, embodied transformation, and the well-being of the collective.
Transformation takes place through consistent daily practice. But when the work is done in community, its potency expands.
When we show up for ourselves within a shared field of devotion, we generate an energy that moves beyond the individual. We create ripples that uplift, heal, and liberate — not just within our own lives, but the collective field we all share, and the world we are all building together.
Each lab is a themed sadhana.
Sadhana is the Sanskrit word for daily spiritual practice — a discipline of showing up for yourself each day in devotion to mind, body, and spirit.
Unfolding over a set number of days — some 11, some 40 — each Devotion Lab is designed to help you recalibrate your energy field, shift internal patterns, and return to deeper alignment with your sacred truth and fullest expression.
Each Devotion Lab includes
A live virtual opening workshop
Set the energetic field, receive full guidance, and practice the sadhana together for the first time.
40-Day Self-Led Sadhana
Commit to your 40-day daily practice done in your own space, in your own time.
Private Community Space
Connect, reflect, ask questions, and receive real-time support in our public Resonance Room.
Closing Integration Call
Reflect, share insights, and anchor the transformation with intention for lasting change.
CURRENTLY
The Radiance Lab
August 1 — September 10, 2025
Doors for this lab are now closed. Stay tuned for the next Devotion Lab starting Autumn 2025.
Awaken and embody your inherent radiance, the unique frequency of light, truth, and vitality that only you can bring into this world.
Aligned with Leo season, the Lionsgate portal, and the life-giving power of the Sun, this 40-day journey invites you to reconnect to the brilliance at your core.
Through this daily sadhana, we work to decalcify stagnant energy, strengthen the nervous system, and expand the electromagnetic field, allowing your radiance to not only be felt, but to ripple outward in service of your alignment and the collective healing of the world.

If you miss a day, it’s okay — there’s no shame — but you’ll need to start the 40-day cycle again from the beginning.
Sadhana is a devotional practice—an agreement between you, your spirit, and the energy you’re cultivating. Recommitting is part of the path. Each time you return, you strengthen your devotion, your integrity, and your capacity to hold the change you’re creating.

40-Day Devotional Practice
A 40-day practice initiates real neurological change. Both yogic philosophy and modern science show that consistent daily practice over a 6-8 week period can rewire neural pathways, increase grey matter in areas linked to memory, focus, and emotional regulation, and reduce stress reactivity — transforming not just how you feel, but how you show up and radiate in the world.
Pranayama Breathwork
Conscious breathing balances the nervous system, reduces stress, increases oxygen, and shifts brainwave states to create calm, clarity, and expansion.
Mudra
Uses hand positions to activate the energetic meridians in the body as well as specific neural pathways, calming the mind and directing energy flow within the body and through our field/aura.
Chanting Mantra
Stimulates the vagus nerve, quiets mental chatter, boosts mood, and raises your energetic frequency through vocal vibration and mental stimulation.
“Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion.”
