Native Awakenings Rain Yogi

Tara is a wonderful soul, and cherished friend. Today we get a peek into her life!

Tara: Born in San Diego, my family moved to the Bay Area when I was a teenager. I grew up with a love for sports and spent my high school years training in Taekwondo. I received a First Degree Black Belt through the American Taekwondo Association and Instructor certification before the age of 18. College is where I took my first yoga class 16 years ago and dived into Eastern philosophy and meditation. After college I engaged in a marketing and events career and took weekends to train at Yoga Tree in San Francisco, earning my yoga teacher certification in the summer of 2016. Soon after that I moved to Portland and gave birth to a free-spirited boy, he continues to be my source of purpose and inspiration. Using my events background, I teach in-person classes, immersions, and workshops in the Portland metro area, as well curated location-based retreats around the world.
My passion lies in the depth of the yogic tradition and how to thread ancient philosophy and movement with the modern science of psychology and physiology. I am currently pursuing my second undergraduate degree in psychology and plan to apply it towards a doctorate in neuroscience at OHSU.

Notice: We mention "Kove Yoga" in this episode, we recorded this episode before the closing of Kove Yoga. Kove Yoga Studio is now closed, but you can find Tara at

In this episode we talk about the timing of magic and when to use it. We speak on the effects of subconcious magic vs concious magic, and the benefits of bringing concious actions in alignment with our individual magical abailities (how many times can I say magic?).

We also do a "Halo Meditation" to energetically feel the sensations of our perception.

I'm back! It's been a long break, but I'm happy to return to this podcast 3.

In this episode I explain why I took my break, and what I've learned along the way. To find myself required a time of hibernation, and I'm joyful to emerge with the wisdom that comes from reflection. This personal episode shows a part of me that I haven't really shared on this podcast, but am excited to share now. Thank you for your patience. This podcast also includes a short meditation where we invite spirituality into our sensuality (our senses)

In this episode we train our focus by honing in on a specific mind/emotion/body-part, then holding that focus while listening to the instrumental frequencies of tuning forks.

In this episode we are serenaded by a handpan drum. While we listen to its melodies, we discover ways to love ourselves through this guided meditation of acceptance and love.

Crystals are apart of the earth element. While we can hear the sound of rushing rivers, crackling fire, and whispering winds we often don't get the opportunity to listen to earth itself. Crystal bowls are a beautiful way to hear the song of stones and minerals, and in today's episode we get to do just that! While this episode feels otherworldly, it is designed to be grounding and graceful.
