Got Crisis? 3 Ways This Practice Can Help

“Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilised by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have – life itself.” ~ Walter Anderson

In the spirit of Throwback Thursday today on my blog I’m sharing an article I wrote for the top U.S. lifestyle media brand Mind Body Green, inspired by my experience back and forth from London to Los Angeles for my father on hospice care. Some of you may or may not be familiar with the powerful benefits of yoga. Today’s blog gives a glimpse into how this powerful practice can help you through a crisis. The original article can be found here.

Let Go and Heal with This Once in a Blue Full Moon

“We are all like the bright moon, we still have our darker side.” – Kahlil Gibran

This week’s blog is very much inspired by my own motivation for kicking off my retreat this weekend during the full moon. This time comes with a lot of heightened energy, bringing light to the dark, illuminating what has been in the shadows of our life. As a powerful moment to focus on personal growth, it’s one of the most potent times for meditation and reflection. As the full moon affects not only the deep oceans of planet earth but also our deep emotional self.

Heal Your Home, Your Children and Yourself

“Life is not merely being alive, but being well.” – Marcus Valerius Martialis

Home sweet home. After spending ten days travelling from London to Los Angeles and back to Barcelona, I was inspired to re-post my top home healing tips published nearly two years ago to the day, as some family and friends are in a new home or about to move home while others just had a baby or pregnant with baby. I believe as parents, sometimes, it’s easier to make conscious efforts for our son or daughter before we even think about doing it for ourselves. Every day as mothers or fathers we try our best in giving our children a great start in life. And hopefully from this parent awareness we can treat our own body, our temple, with the same respect and self-care as we begin living from the inside out.

Transform Your Life. 26K shares and counting…

“The quieter you become the more you can hear.” -Ram Dass

In the spirit of Throwback Thursday and my signature workshop this Sunday in London, today I share on my blog the following article that was originally posted on the top U.S. lifestyle media brand Mind Body Green with nearly 26,000 shares and counting!!! 

Yin yoga is a deliciously deep, meditative and reflective practice in which floor-based postures are held for an extended period of time.

Unlike a dynamic yang practice that works the muscles through repetition, Yin works the deeper layers of the body such as the fascia, connective tissues, joints and bones. Yin is a deeply healing and nourishing practice with profound physical, emotional and energetic effects. During challenging times in our lives, our emotions can deplete our bodies of energy. The nourishing practice of Yin yoga helps to restore that energy for overall wellbeing.

Barcelona Bound! Wish you were here…?

“Within you, there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at anytime and be yourself.” – Hermann Hesse

Imagine starting your morning as you greet the sun shining down your face, with the fresh breeze against your skin, and the sound of birdsong energising you for the day ahead. Envision yourself having the space and time out of your normal routine to ‘just be” and do whatever YOU want that will nourish YOUR soul. Consider meeting other like-minded people from around the world – where you’re free to explore and connect in a city steeped with history, culture and beauty. Ponder the feeling of sand on your feet as you walk towards a private boat for your Mediterranean Sea tour. Anticipate learning new and healthy ways to shift your energy, change your perspective and transform your life. Imagine ending your day as the sun sets down on your face, with the night breeze against your skin, and the city sounds coming to a blissful end.

Did you FEEL that as you began to imagine yourself on retreat? Well you can!

Join me for my Spring retreat this May 21st – 25th. It’s not too late to experience the richness of Barcelona and the healing, transformative work that allowed me and others to live a more fulfilling life.

Here is just some of what my students and clients experienced working with me after they said “YES” to invest in themselves – their health and well-being:
