Loto Journal
An evolving exploration of consciousness, spirituality, relationship, and what it means to flourish together.
Through personal storytelling and curious inquiry, we explore consciousness and the Self, contemplative spirituality and mysticism, psychology and somatic healing, creativity and relationship, and our connection with nature and the living world. Along the way, our Founder, Jennifer, shares letters from her travels as a digital nomad, exploring the people, places, traditions, and sacred landscapes that continue to shape her journey.
Reader’s Note: In an attempt to bring a conscious sense of responsibility to our language (where inclusivity and equality matter), in our Loto Wellness Collective blog content, except for direct quotes, the pronouns often used for God are They/Them in reference to Great Spirit, the I AM, the Universe. Also, we have taken the liberty of capitalizing the term “True Self” or “Self” so you will know that we are not referring to the “false self” (psychological egoic self), but the foundational Self that we are in God, Imago Dei.
Breath of Life
The Breath of Life
Breathwork & the Nervous System: Returning to the Body Through Breath 🫁
Breathwork is a powerful practice that can help self-regulate the nervous system and influence the polyvagal response. The breath is a unique tool because it can be consciously controlled and modified to impact our physiological and emotional states.
Grace in Every Breath: What is Christian Yoga? ✝️🧘♀️
Imagine a dance where faith takes the lead, and flexibility follows with grace and harmony. Christian yoga with Loto Wellness Collective is just that—a spiritual ballet where your body becomes an instrument of praise, and your heart, a vessel for God's love. In the gentle stretches and mindful breaths, we discover the beauty of surrender, the art of letting go, and the wonder of God's presence in each movement.
