“Humanity has the curse (or blessing) that all human beings are interconnected. As long as any one of them is suffering, none of them will be completely happy. Nothing in the world is unknown to us, neither its pain nor its joy, because ours is a world that still suffers even though there is bliss, which is still joyful even though there is pain. The more we know our suffering, the more we will enjoy our happiness.”
– A.G. Roemmers, “The Return of the Young Prince”

Haven’t done this in quite a while but really happy to squeeze a short bendy practice in this busy weekend. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you, @avyanna.athleisure, for these smooth-and-soft-like-butter yoga pants! They hug my petite body so well and even accentuate my shape. I need this so people will be reminded I’m a woman. 💁🏻♀️

May this year be a great teacher for you and may your spirit shine through any adversities that come your way. 2020 represents a new day, a new year, and a new chance to start again. It’s never too late to begin again. 🧘🏻♀️🌷🙏🏻 #nomudnolotus #2020 #newyear #wishes #resolutions #buddhism #zen #love #family #learning #meditation #resilience #wonder #beginagain
Stillness is needed for clarity to arise. Even in between breaths, there is a pause that holds the inhale and anticipates the exhale. In that liminal space, all possibilities are endless, including the answers we seek. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Stillness and steadiness” was one of my themes in 2019 and my gosh, there were so many insightful gems mined from living and doing that work. 🧘🏻♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grateful beyond words for all that this decade has brought. Can’t believe it’s coming to a close but I’m so excited for what lies ahead. 2020, here we come! 🤗

Joyeux Noël! 🎄💕🌏
Last week was all about recuperating because I fell ill suddenly for the first time in years! (I even had to search for my manual mercury thermometer cause all my digital ones have no more battery! 🙈) Rest and solitude are really essential for healing and I enjoyed every minute of it. Hope everyone stays healthy through the hustle of the holidays and gets as much rest and silence as needed. Namaste! 🙏🏻 #holidays #christmas2019 #recovery #silence #solitude #sleep #namastayinbed #healing
It’s been so busy in my neck of the woods that I’ve been forced to reflect on my priorities so I can allocate my energy accordingly. Self-care is high on the list and I’ve really been setting some time aside for that but for some reason, it doesn’t seem to be enough. Some pampering here and there doesn’t cut it anymore and it makes me wonder how else I could fill my own cup.
It wasn’t until the Plum Village retreat last weekend that I was reminded that I didn’t need to fill up my self-care time with more activities like spa dates and massages. All I needed to recharge from deep within is a couple of hours of intentional mindfulness - mindful walking, mindful eating, noble silence.
There is great healing in the simplest of things and it’s always available for us anytime. Even in the busy-ness of life, we can be steady in the storm by anchoring ourselves in breathing and awakeness.
Wishing for rest, contentment, fulfillment, and peace for the rest of the year for all. Happy humpday and advanced happy thanksgiving! ✨🧘🏻♀️🌷 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It is the end of an eventful month, full of lessons, challenges, self-reflections, and reunions. So many paths treaded in a span of a month and each day, the Universe feeds us, tends us, cares for us. Choose gratitude for all that is here, when it is easy and when it is hard. Don’t be afraid to walk the path. 👣 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
