About
Puff Puff Flow was born from my own journey of healing. While recovering from open-heart surgery, I found that this powerful plant and yoga helped me manage my pain and anxiety without relying on pharmaceuticals. Beyond aiding in my recovery, these practices also supported my emotional healing, helping me break through patterns of stress and discomfort in my life. Together, they became a powerful tool in connecting more deeply with myself.
Through connecting with my yoga community, I found that many students were also using plant medicine to enhance their practice. This inspired me to create Puff Puff Flow – a series of outdoor yoga classes that began with open consumption and connection, followed by exploration of breath and movement in a safe and welcoming environment.
We have since expanded to offer different types of classes in a variety of locations, but the core of where we started stays the same. We cultivate a safe, welcoming space to explore your mind and body through breath, movement, and mindful consumption. We believe yoga and cannabis, individually and together, can unlock new levels of self-awareness, growth, and connection. Our community thrives on inclusivity and authenticity.
Core Values
-
Inclusivity – At Puff Puff Flow, we celebrate diversity and welcome all individuals, regardless of background, experience, or personal journey. No prior pklant medicine or yoga experience is needed to join our classes. We meet students where they are, encouraging them to honor their own experiences and limitations. Our classes are designed to be accessible for all bodies, providing a supportive environment where everyone can feel comfortable exploring their practice. Honoring the practice of Ahimsa, the yogic principle of non-violence, we foster an atmosphere of kindness, respect, and compassion, ensuring everyone feels safe, supported, and free from judgement.
-
Authenticity – We create a space where you can show up exactly as you are – without pretense or fear of judgment. Whether you’re new to yoga, new to medicating with herb, or a seasoned pro, we encourage you to be true to yourself and honor your unique journey. By embracing Svadhyaya, the yogic practice of self-study, we create a space where students can explore and express themselves authentically, inviting a sense of ease and trust within our community. When you show up authentically, you help create a space where others feel safe to do the same.
-
Community – Our Sangha, or community, is the heart of Puff Puff Flow. Together, we make this practice more than a yoga class – it becomes an experience of connection, support, and growth. We lift each other up, both on and off the mat, creating a space where everyone feels accepted and empowered. In this space, we move through moments of joy, challenge, and self-discovery, holding space for each other’s vulnerabilities and triumphs. Through this collective energy, we continue to nurture a community where each of us can feel seen, supported, and inspired as we grow together.
-
Connection – Connection begins with the community we build through shared practice. Though we share the same space, each person’s journey is uniquely their own. By calming the mind, cannabis allows us to connect more fully with the present moment. It enhances self-awareness, helping us listen more closely to our bodies and engage in authentic movement. Ishvara Pranidhana invites us to surrender to a higher purpose, recognizing that our individual journeys are part of a larger, interconnected whole. In community, this principle encourages us to trust the collective energy, allowing us to engage with each other and the practice.
