12 Things I Learned in My First 12 Months of Motherhood

It's been 12 months since my life changed forever... But I still remember the day like it was yesterday. After seventeen hours of labor with one final push I felt a release as my daughter came into the world. They handed her to me and with shaky hands I kissed her all over her little body. She was my sun, my moon, my stars and I felt a new kind of love spark in my…

I Missed Yoga Last Week And I Felt…

I can't even put into words what I felt. It was like a dark cloud came and settled over my head and didn't leave until the winds changed direction and I was able to break free. Last week I missed yoga because the mole on my face began to bleed and I had to go to the dermatologist. All kinds of feelings of fear crept up and I found myself going into my panic mode.…

Guided Meditation for PCOS

I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) many years ago and for years I suffered from pain, anger, and frustration.

The Yoga Expo – A Place For Yogis and Yoga Teachers

A few years ago I was the quintessential couch potato.  Weekends were spent on Netflix marathons and various bowls of salty snacks. The words 'exercise,' 'yoga' or 'meditation' were not even in my vocabulary. Back in those days I would've never imagined that one day I would be attending The Yoga Expo in Fort Lauderdale, not just as a student but as a yoga teacher. This weekend - On April 16, 2016- the much anticipated…

Why I Won’t Let Endometriosis Ruin My Life

 I'm sitting on a birthing ball looking down at my ever-expanding belly. A kick, then another reminds me of the beautiful baby growing inside. At seven months it's still hard to wrap my mind around it. I'm really pregnant.  When I look back on the journey of how I got here, it was as if I had to run a marathon with no end in sight. My body had given out, my mind was numb,…

Why I’ve Been a Hermit for Months

You may have noticed less emails, less blog posts, less activity on Sookton's Space. My friends haven't seen me in months. I've been popping up hosting workshops and events, and then quickly retreating to my home. The truth is, I have been spending a lot of time alone, reflecting, and writing. In the past I would have called myself "selfish" for this kind of behavior. I would have said, "Suki, people want to see you. You…
