Currently reading: The Wise Heart by @jack_kornfield and within the first few pages, this line struck me deeply: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “... discover the power of the heart to hold all things — sorrow, loneliness, shame, desire, regret, frustration, happiness, and peace — and find a deep trust that wherever we are and whatever we face, we can be free in their midst.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I believe in our capacity to be resilient and expansive, no matter the circumstance. Sometimes, we may forget and be blinded by outside factors but ultimately, we’ll wake up to our truth sooner or later. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ May all beings be happy. May all beings be healthy. May all beings be safe. May all beings be free. 🧘🏻‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #metta #meditation #lovingkindness #jackkornfield #thewiseheart #wisdom #resilience #yoga #backbend #inversion #openheart #kindness #strength #patience #hope #love #freedom #liberation

Stumbled into this year like whoa! Worked hard to keep my balance and in a blink of an eye - it’s already February! 👀 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I didn’t expect January to be so fast-paced but I’m very grateful for all the memories and new experiences it brought. 🙏🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ February’s coming in quick too but will have a 10-day reprieve from all the hustle as I take my first-ever Vipassana retreat. 🧘🏻‍♀️🤫📵 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ll be surrendering my phone, social media, (books, journaling, yoga, and speaking) during that time so if I’m not responsive from Feb 6-17, please don’t worry and kindly be patient. I’ll respond to my emails and messages when I get back. 🤗 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #vipassana #silentmeditation #meditation #sngoenka #hustle #silence #retreat #socialmediahiatus #hermitmode #yoga

Pierce through the illusion. 👁🙏🏻🧘🏻‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Very very grateful for all that 2018 had to offer. It was a year of letting go and really deep healing. It was very hard for many months - all the changes, endings, and illness kept disrupting my peace - but in the end, with the help of my beloved friends, family, and even strangers’ kindness, I discovered the beauty in resilience and starting over. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thank you, 2018, for everything. And hello, 2019! Welcome to the present moment. 🤲🏻🧘🏻‍♀️💕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy happy new year, everyone! #zenmindbeginnersmind #yoga #illusion #reality #sunset #pigeonpose #swordmudra #newyear #2019 #2018 #lessons #growth #resilience #startingover

“It is never too late for the illumination of wisdom. It does not matter how long the darkness has lasted.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It is never ever too late. 🥰 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thank you for being my light all the way in the Philippines, @jack_kornfield! ✨ I really love your podcasts. They keep me open and grounded. Namaste. 🙏🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #warrior #yoga #silhouette #virabhadrasana #asana #lighttheworld #wisdom

Sincerely grateful. This is the way. 🥰🙏🏻🧘🏻‍♀️#monkeytemple #kathmandu #nepal #buddhism #prayerflag #desiderata #prayer #grareful

Sitting, waiting, wishing, smiling. 😌 My favorite detail here is the flower on his right ear. 🌼🙏🏻🧘🏻‍♀️ #kathmandu #nepal #patandurbarsquare #durbaraquare #patience #liveandbreathe

Hanumanasana at the Pashupatinath Temple with the monkeys! 🐒 #pashupatinath #nepal #kathmandu #monkeytemple #hanumanasana #yoga #split

Happy place. 💕

Make each moment an offering of beauty, vibrancy, and love. 🌷 Happy Tuesday! 💗 #offering #practice #nepal #kathmandu #blessingindisguise

December dreaming. 🥰 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s been a crazy ride, 2018! You were definitely not what I planned for but you gave me exactly what I needed. It took me a long time to learn to accept it all but I think I’ve finally come to a point of resiliency and trust. No matter what happens, I know things are unfolding as they should. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the meantime, I wonder what else you have in store for the last couple of weeks.. knowing you, I feel like it’s gonna end with a bang. 😏✨🌷 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #letsdothis #itaintoveryet #december #december2018 #uniqlo #uniqloph #toms #grateful #growth #2018 #yearend #redemption

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 👣 First set of photos from my trip to Nepal. Highlight of this trip to Namobuddha was really the little monks and their happy smiles. Ah, to be young, free, and loving. 🥰 #namobuddha #buddhism #buddhistmonastery #stupa #kathmandu #nepal #hinduism #shiva #shivathedestroyer #peace #monk

Good vibes all around! 💕 Kept it simple today and went with the flow. Met a few beautiful souls and one actually captivated my heartstrings. (Garden of Dreams indeed!) I think my smile was beaming during yoga today, despite the long-holding Warrior poses. Ah, so this is what it feels like to be a giddy teenager again! It’s been so darn long! 😅 #kathmandu #kathmanduadventures #whenstrangersmeet #greekgods #kilig #solotraveler #beautifulconversations #internationaltravels #funnycoincidence #gardenofdreams
