In Flow & Free is Briana Fails and Vanessa Cartagena’s answer to how we build community, cultivate peace, and grow our lives through yoga and meditation. We hope to share and invite others into the practices of community building, yoga and meditation in accessible ways; offering the spaciousness of donation-based classes to anyone seeking a safe place to soften, reflect or release into healthier ways of being in their own way, at their own time.

When we tend to our gardens, caring for and empowering ourselves, we can grow enough to nourish not only ourselves but the wider worlds around us.

    Well Beings

    Well Beings

    Here we are, after taking this time off to uplift our sense of well-being and tendin’ to things in need of tendin’. And so we are utilizing this month to examine just that…are we well-beings…being well? We hear the word “wellness” plastered on everything these days, usually referring to this emotional place or space we’re meant to get to. Hey Briana, are you following your gimmicky ass 3 steps to wellness plan? Hey V, did you journal every second of your wellness journey today?

    : /

    We eat this wellness shit up, consuming all the things to supplement our well-being journey, with an expectation that wellness is some safe and stable destination that we are meant to settle into. Maybe it's the journey...

    Recently well-being, at least for me, has been a moment-by-moment choosing of myself as honestly and compassionately as I can. It’s a listening to my needs, allowing my path to unfold before me without the language of something being wrong navigating my choices. It’s showing up like my most present self…without controlling or “trying” to fix anything in the "me" that is presently being here, now. It’s allowing the stories I spit up to rest when rest is what I need or maybe it looks like me being willing to allow the pain and pressure to build, taking me to whatever emotion or experience awaits me. I am blessed to have built a safe community of support around me so that if I fall in too deep, I know someone is willing to jump in to grant me their spaciousness until I reach the shore. 

    Maybe it's simply time... the wandering we will do for a lifetime, as we develop ourselves through all the endless alchemical shifts and fiery aches, slowly forging the magic that is us and within us as collective beings. 

    Listen in as Vanessa & Briana ebb in, out of, and through the many hues of their journeys as well beings. We are always so grateful for your time and your attention. Drop us a like or a comment and share your wellness journey with us, whether it be the journey of a day, year, or a lifetime...we'd love to hear from you.

    Sitting With Intention: The Movement of Freedom

    Sitting With Intention: The Movement of Freedom

    It's been a minute yall, and we're back from an enriching podcast hiatus to offer you a mini audio series we call "Sitting With Intention." These are lil gems and nuggets of inspiration and intention that have been living through us lately. These intentions stir up all the feels and explorations of what's been happening in Briana and Vanessa's lives. We share, we question, and challenge how we navigate various aspects and facets of what it truly means to learn how to live, as we are and as we can be. 

    This week's Intention is a personal share on Freedom from Briana Fails. All throughout July, Vanessa and Briana have been exploring the movements of freedom, and often lack of, in their relationships and within themselves. This share is a minute snapshot of Briana's experiences, as she reflects on what freedom feels and looks like and how this freedom, and all its movements, are shifting and shaping her own life, flowing far beyond her own nourishment. 

    Tune into more lil gems with The In Flow & Free Podcast. 

    To join us at our online donation-based meditation, yoga, and communal sharing this Sunday (July 25, 2021) beginning at 9:30am CST.

    Finding the ground again...and again...and again

    Finding the ground again...and again...and again

    What we are presenting today is a candid and impromptu conversation between V and I centered around how we try to ground and re-root ourselves into some sense of safety, love, and kindness.  We found ourselves in a beautiful exchange about how we sometimes feel overwhelmed and consumed by the narrowness of our emotions and how that feeds into how the ways we attempt to create and nurture our relationships. We share hard experiences and the possibility of shifting from moments of stuckness and rigidity into the freedom of speaking our truths and being open to creating new paths for ourselves and the worlds we inhabit. 

    We are so grateful for your support. Share us with your loved ones or better yet, we invite you to create your own explorations around how you come back to your own sense of love and safety and then maybe, share that with people you care about. Invite them to share with you too. 

    & who knows...maybe we'll begin to listen deeper and share more openly about what it takes to truly care for ourselves and one another. 

    We love yall...be well.

    Sit With: A Spacious Creator

    Sit With: A Spacious Creator

    When I say the word "spacious" what does it mean for you? How does the word spaciousness move through your words, within your thoughts, and through your body?

    In this short conversation and meditation, Briana asks questions to stir a curiosity around how we play and empower the spacious creator within ourselves. This is a beautiful and brief exploration into what becomes possible when we, like the inhale, expand into the richness of the space all around us.

    This month, Vanessa and Briana dive into the "Impressions" we make in our lives. We will spend April sifting through the impact and footprints we leave upon this world, and upon ourselves, and check-in with what's there.

    To join our weekly meditations or yoga classes, or Bi-weekly Communal Calls go to www.inflowandfree.com OR follow us on IG @inflowandfree to get more deets.

    Get Free: A Meditation for the moment

    This Get Free Meditation is an invitation to be in the moment, allowing time to share space with you. This is a practice that can be done seated, lying down, or while creating a safe walking meditation for yourself. Vanessa guides us to connect our breath and ourselves at this moment and into the next, inviting us to explore what's possible for our peace and self-restoration. We are grateful for your sharing and your practice.

    Integrity Reimagined with Thea Anderson

    Integrity Reimagined with Thea Anderson

    Today, Briana and Vanesssa offer an episode about the complexities of Integrity. We are joined by our good friend, author & astrologer, Thea Anderson.

    Thea shares with us the value of community as we navigate this word "integrity" and how essential it is that we tap into our own truth-telling, our own stories, to dismantle the oppressions of the outer world's influence over our own integrity. Thea is even so kind to share her Astro Forecast for the end of the year which leaves us with so much to call forth in 2021.

    This conversation ebbs and flows through so many feels and we offer to you the space to explore the freedom that can be summoned by creating and uplifting our own stories through integrity.

    For more of her writing, Astro forecasts or to book your own reading (we highly recommend) head to her website: http://theanichelle.com/

    OR follow her on IG @theaastrology for daily doses of the astroweather and her writing https://www.instagram.com/theaastrology/

    As always, we are grateful for your support. Listen IN and support our yoga and meditation offerings at www.inflowandfree.com
