welcome change

Change is not something that we should fear. Rather, it is something that we should welcome. For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom, and no one in this world would ever move forward to become the person they’re meant to be.

it is in all of us

What perfect words to kick off this week.  I’ve just returned from a blissful 12 days back on the east coast visiting my very best friends and my beautiful family.  The time away was just lovely but I do feel so happy to be home and to be on the brink of big change, chance and adventure.  In just less than 2 weeks, I’ll be officially closing what has been a major chapter in my life (my successful stint in the advertising world) to begin the next.  There’s no telling exactly what will come next, but there’s one thing for certain – I feel brave and ready to defy expectations, ready to fill my days with yoga, ready to teach and ready to embrace whatever challenges come my way.  After all, it’s by taking the greatest risks that we achieve our greatest victories.  So I think it’s time to find one of these victories.  More to come my sweet friends and family!  xx

gratitude

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”


— Melody Beattie


(Borrowed from a beautiful friend of mine…you know who you are wink wink)

good morning

There’s no better way to start the day than to salute the sun.  5 sun a’s and 5 sun b’s always gets my soul shining, even when our beautiful sun is hiding.

Baddha konasana on the Brooklyn Bridge in celebration of two weeks from now when I’ll be reunited with my very best friends enjoying good wine, food and company in the beautiful city of Brooklyn. Cannot contain my excitement!

acceptance

Be gentle with yourself. Be kind to yourself. You may not be perfect, but you are all you’ve got to work with. The process of becoming who you will be begins first with the total acceptance of who you are.
