Mistress Apologizes to Rabbi’s Wife

August 20, 2013

Wow. Do you follow my friend’s site “An Open Apology?” If not, you should. It blows my mind! Stirling Gardner, the creator, is a close friend and sometimes speaks at my retreats and events. Follow this guy closely. He is going places 😉 xx jen

Jennifer Pastiloff

Jennifer Pastiloff, Beauty Hunter, is a writer and yoga teacher living with her husband in Los Angeles and soon to be son, when she’s not on an airplane. She travels the world with her Manifestation Retreats/Workshops On Being Human- a hybrid of yoga, writing, sharing out loud, and occasionally a dance party, as well as a workshop for young women called "Girl Power: You Are Enough." It's an experience that has been described as NOT "woo-woo,", heart-mending and sometimes messy- just like life. You do not have to be a good yogi, or writer. Just a human being with a body. Jen has been featured on Good Morning America, New York Magazine, CBS News and more for her unique style of teaching. She studied poetry and writing at NYU and Bucknell University and is currently finishing her first book and is represented by Adriann Ranta at Foundry Media. She tweets/instagrams at @jenpastiloff.

Wow! What a brilliant idea to create space for people to let go.

Thank you for sharing this inspiring blog, Jen.

Such goodness in releasing regret.

Be Love.

People Magazine says: Jennifer is changing women's lives through her empowerment workshops. Cheryl Strayed says: Jennifer Pastiloff is a conduit of awakenings. Lidia Yuknavitch says: Dear Jen, From you I have learned to alchemize fear with love, to redistribute love through compassion, to enter a room with others. Jen leads her signature Manifestation Workshop: On Being Human all over the world & online. Her memoir will be published by Dutton Books in 2019. Preorders available now at JenniferPastiloff.com Her workshops are a unique blend of writing and some yoga. She has developed a massive following based on her writing & workshops. A London workshop attendee says, "A space to show up and be human. A fusion of yoga and singing and writing and sharing, with laughter and tears mixed in! To be held and encouraged so beautifully by Jen, who won't flinch....but stay connected to us all through the journey. She creates a strong container, sits on the edges of our yoga mats listening to the stories that weave us together as human beings. She gives us the gift of attention, space and time. It's a space for connecting, for intimacy...you leave in a different place from where you arrive...It's a chance to show up, to own our fears and our dreams, our deep yearnings and the things we'd love to manifest in our lives. A chance to be wholeheartedly present and come back home a little more to ourselves." Jen also leads retreats with Emily Rapp & Lidia Yuknavitch. She is also the guest speaker at Canyon Ranch three times a year. All info is at the top under Retreats/Workshops.

2 days ago by jenpastiloff #Repost @leigh .here.now ・・・ Last night I had the thrill of meeting Jennifer Pastiloff, author of On Being Human, live and in person. You can see from the photos that I was late — just as I was about to walk out the door, my dear friend and next door neighbor’s son fell out of a tree and broke his arm in two places. By the time I got to the reading I was shaky and teary, because in our little community, we’re all family, so when one of us is hurting, we all feel it. We huddle up. I’m sharing

12 hours ago by jenpastiloff This beautiful book by @yoga_girl dropped this week. So many of you have messaged me that you are reading it! I eternally grapple with the letting go part. Not so much the loving. I’m so glad you wrote this book, Rachel. We need it. Do you have your copy yet? This is a Memoir of love, loss & gratitude so in the comments I’d love to hear what or who you are grateful for. And if you want to share about anyone you’ve loved and lost, I’d love to read about them too ❤️❤️❤️ Proud of you, Rach. I’ll see
3 hours ago by jenpastiloff As I sit in the car headed to @cugnanello to start my retreat I’m remembering this from last year’s. There was a 13 yr old at my #onbeinghuman retreat in Italy with her mommy. They’d both suffered incredible loss. @payton_ham_ has gone through more at 13 than most in a lifetime- her father and her brother. I have each person give everyone at the retreat a note with the #5mostbeautifulthings about each other so everyone leaves w a bag of Love letters. That’s #beautyhunting . Anyway, this was Payton’s note to me. She said I’m wise. “You know what to say
