The three women that have most influenced my life so far.

We all live by example. The lessons we carry come either from experience (those are fun, right?) or by stories told by others. The stories, random shortcuts of wisdom, come to you when one most needs them, and the storytellers are here to be part of our own history in the making. They gently guide us, […]

The Holi Festival of Color

I’ve always had a fascination with the Festival of Colors… Holi. For those of you who’ve never heard of this amazing event, it is a celebration held in India. It is engrained in their tradition the same way curry is a staple in their flavors. Every year, just before the arrival of Spring, thousands of […]

Three Podcasts to open your mind and be inspired

I have recently discovered the power of my earphones. These days I am drawn into myself more than ever. Perhaps the political scene is too much and is everywhere, and it just makes me cranky. Or maybe I am just recharging my batteries for something greater. Whatever the reason, I must admit that I have […]

Last week I got my first mat burn ever. After the Kundalini class the previous Sunday, I was feeling good and clear headed.

The Choice of Living a Life

I was born and raised in an island. A tiny island in the Caribbean, filled with songs, heat, and humor. The breeze carries a salty flavor that sticks to your skin on humid days. A flavor that lingers on your tongue after swiftly brushing your lips in particularly humid days. The breeze, a soft and […]

Resilience

INGRID SILVA // ACTIVIA from Ben Briand on Vimeo. There is this quality of persistence that accompanies every great endeavor. Nothing worth pursuing comes easy. Only those who stick to it, have the better chance to succeed. Resilience comes as a result of persistence. The ability to retain your true identity against the hardship that will […]

I Yoga : a Kundalini experience

There is a fire burning from within. I learned this yesterday at my first Kundalini Yoga experience. Kundalini relates to a form of primal energy that resides in all of us.

I Yoga : The first month

“We are energy, and we have the capacity to shift and create the path in which we choose to dance and make life on. It isn’t always going to be paved the way we are used to or the way we want, but with practice, we learn that if we are present and awake we […]
