A New Season

So it begins… the new year. I have to report that for me it really didn’t start until yesterday. The whole weekend felt like an extension of the previous one, still lingering like a bad childhood memory. But Monday brought with it a new energy to deal with, getting out of the house and going […]

My Christmas Present

“Eternity has nothing to do with time. Time is what shuts you out from eternity. Eternity is now.” Joseph Campbell, Pathways to Bliss Christmas day. It’s been a crisp, rather chilly week in Miami, Florida. Weather is in the mid 50’s, and, if you know anything about my neck of the woods, you should know […]

How I’m moving lately

I started this blog roughly three years ago, in an attempt to document my own personal experience with movement through Yoga. I had no idea then how the introspection of the Yoga practice would change my world view, nonetheless that it would help me navigate through very difficult decisions. Today, I am still practicing my […]

Of Pink and the Goddess

Pink has turned out to be my favorite color lately. Mind you, this is a new pattern for me. Historically, I’ve stayed away from pink for many reasons, but mainly because it’s paired with anything girly, and really, I am not that girly. Perhaps when I was 12 or 13 for a brief moment there, […]

I Yoga: A Savasana Story

Play the Soundcloud file, and experience the soothing sound of a good Savasana (this is the ending portion of every Yoga class). Namaste… Hello you… it’s been a while since I don’t account for my Yoga progression. Although I’ve been keeping the practice going as promised, I am falling behind in the telling. […]

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, […]

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 […]

Something for your Saturday

I love whenever I find little pieces of random information that point me in the right direction. This beautiful reflection confirms that making new choices is the way to continue the motion of your life. Don’t get stuck. Just keep moving. Graham Ezzy- Writing and The Sea from Ezzy Sails on Vimeo. I love whenever […]

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 […]

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. In Hindu tradition, it is also known as Shakti, which, citing directly from Wikipedia, means “power” or “empowerment”, and is the primordial cosmic energy. It […]
