Rewrite Your Story
Take a story - any story you tell yourself, and reframe it so it serves you instead of bringing you down. That’s what these yoga students did for me - they helped me change my childhood story.
Go With the Flow
What I’ve learned is that if/when I start to expect to go through life without hardship, difficulty, stress, disappointment— my life becomes even more stressful when things aren’t running smoothly. The key word here is “expect.”
You Can Do it All, Just Not All at Once
This journey of awakening to my fullest, best-set self is a journey indeed and not one that ever ends. It evolves over a lifetime.
Getting Out of the Groove
Like a needle stuck in the scratch of a record… we tend to get stuck in the groove of what we know, even if what we know causes us pain or isn’t working in our favor.
Honor Your Angels
I have had a few angels in my life that have taught me some really hard lessons… I’m sure you have too. But doesn’t this put it into a beautiful perspective? For me it does.
Cleanse Imbalances with Ayurveda
Join me for a 3-week journey with Ayurvedic practitioner, Nina Shah, for an Ayurvedic education, where you will start by identifying YOUR Dosha. You will discover how to balance your Dosha and keep it in balance.
‘Spring Cleanup’ the Unwanted
Get still and get clear. And then get to work. As we “clean up our acts,” we will begin to feel lighter, more connected to our highest self and to others. We will feel more expansive, our minds clearer, our hearts and minds more open.
Find Contentment in the Now
So for now, I will slow down, breathe and count my many blessings. I cannot control the speed at which life is happening, but what I can control is my grounded-ness in this moment and the realization that I am blessed, right here, right now.
Choose to Move On
As we emerge from a year of quarantine - loss of loved ones, financial struggle, emotional reflection, and lots of change - hopefully you have grown and learned more about you. About who you are, what you want, and how you can show up in your life.
Just Do YOU!
If I could go back and have a heart to heart with my younger self, I would say this... “Be you. Be your bestest most beautiful you. You will find that “you” when you stop trying to look, act, or be like anyone else. Just do “you”.
Find Comfort in Discomfort
When you break out of the routines and rituals of your daily life and begin to toy with discomfort, it gives you agency. Here’s how agency creates hope and possibility...
Honor Your True Nature
This practice will find your weak spots and keep presenting them to you until you get it. And what I needed to get was to love and appreciate myself for who I authentically am.
Open Mind, Open Heart
My invitation to you is to embrace this idea deeply rooted in yoga - remain curious, with child-like wonder as you are a continuous “student” of yourself and life.
Take a Breath
It’s time we start to take inventory of our lives and add in more meaning, more connection, more home cooking, and a stronger connection to Source.
Embrace Presence
I’m here to tell you, being mindful and finding presence, is work. Unlike work you’ve ever done. It’s time to let your overactive mind rest and just be HERE. In stillness.
I Accept Me
For the past few years, I’ve been helping people transform the way they think and the way they live their lives. And this is what I’ve learned… you will never find true happiness if you do not first love and accept yourself.
Step Into Authenticity
If there is a big disconnect between your Authentic Self and your Adaptive Self, we need to take a step back and ask, Why? Why aren’t these two parts of your self matching up?
Be One Percent Better Today
It’s so easy to get lost in the weeds of big lofty goals. We are allured by their greatness and the impressiveness of making a sudden huge shift.
Stay in Your Lane
Comparison. One of the many thieves of joy. When we compare ourselves to others, it’s a formula for disappointment, self-loathing, and sadness.
Get Back to Beginner’s Mind
In order to look at our life differently we must approach it differently - with curiosity, creativity and possibility. This action allows us freedom to detach from our stories and the restrictions of our past.
