Embodied practice is at the root of my offerings, which are influenced by my unique background in dance/choreography, combined with nearly two decades of yoga teaching experience, all underpinned by dedicated scholarship in both dharmic philosophy and contemplative psychotherapy. HeartMind is an expression of the Sanskrit word Bodhichitta, and describes a deeply felt sense of knowing. Bodhi is often translated as awake, while the word chitta means both mind and heart, implying that they are inseparable from one another. This awakened HeartMind informs all of one’s actions, and gives rise to the sincere wish to awaken this liberated quality in others. It is at once an expression of wisdom and compassion. In my experience as the mother of two, parenting has perhaps been one of the most powerful teachings on Bodhichitta - humbling me while simultaneously increasing my capacity for joy. Simply put, things like yoga, meditation and study can elevate our consciousness, but they must also be applicable to our everyday lives, so in my work, I aspire to make practice personal, intuitive and practical. Coming from this place, I find that my life and the lives it touches have become my source material, my practice, my path. This is my offering. https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/home daily 1.0 2024-12-29 https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608511096177-1ICOM8GTYRBQ6JYK3YU7/HeartMindSamples-1.jpeg Contact https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/yoga daily 0.75 2024-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608513195332-SBJ4QINWYJYK1DFZ48E2/image-asset.jpeg Yoga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608513237777-433BOFE0TT7LE7Q8DMW3/image-asset.jpeg Yoga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608513303432-8UJ8H9X5X5AKYUROGU6F/HeartMindSamples-14.jpeg Yoga https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/contemplative-coaching daily 0.75 2024-02-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1605546262566-LPJJ8J17YMJHZQ328AY8/Copy+of+HeatherShaw2ndSet-228+%281%29.jpeg Mentorship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1609199795803-XOMOF5HBFA0JJHUEOAMQ/Copy+of+HeatherShaw2ndSet-133.jpeg Mentorship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608515036234-CJBJ6RAVM2QWVS2DTLNQ/HeatherShaw2ndSet-232.jpeg Mentorship https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/influences daily 0.75 2025-01-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608579685511-MRIWCRAJG1SR7DO65ZMF/HeatherShaw2ndSet-334+%281%29.jpeg Influences https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1608511947247-QO44Y3K3RMKASUPXVBVQ/HeartMindPhotoSession1samples-668.jpeg Influences https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/mindful-life daily 0.75 2020-12-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1606613733014-A592UQURQ34BQN24VL7Z/Copy+of+HeatherShaw2ndSet-143.jpeg Mindful Life I have always believed that practice should be practical for our lives - that it must meet us where we are and help us access the qualities already present within us for both personal growth and positive transformation in the world. We don’t always have control over the outer circumstances in our lives, but we CAN practice to shift our own ways of being in relationship with ourselves, which in turn, also begins to shift the way we are in relationship with others. And perhaps the best (and juiciest, most “real”) place to start is close to home -- or even AT home. Or at work. Or school. As a friend who works for a pharmaceutical company once aptly noted, “Chances are if you can be awake at work, you can wake up pretty much anywhere.” https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/schedule daily 0.75 2026-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/3f93dbad-5464-4bf0-99dd-6132114e8dbd/Uttanasana.jpeg https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/private-small-group-sessions daily 0.75 2024-11-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1609200687674-QZWUFRIZ9JKIGM4H76O7/image-asset.jpeg Private & Small Group Sessions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1609200717540-78WLILIEXPNPOCEULNZD/image-asset.jpeg Private & Small Group Sessions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1609200714569-H8734U5DLS0CAQJ5VKIY/image-asset.jpeg Private & Small Group Sessions https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/mailing-list daily 0.75 2021-01-02 https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/join-a-series daily 0.75 2021-01-07 https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/donations daily 0.75 2021-01-07 https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/influences-1 daily 0.75 2026-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/dfb59e20-210a-49b8-8871-d5a1445b27be/IMG_4260.jpeg Events - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/917f0912-add5-4adf-b720-c6590a0d079e/FiveRemembrancesIGPost.jpg Events - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5be45e6a19b40ec1e86c8a/1d0a1e2d-8c66-4af1-9583-7c0962cd5fc3/8D4DF9E1-295A-4056-9759-0CC289D76381.jpeg Events - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://heathershaw-heartmind.com/heartmind-store daily 0.75 2021-02-15
