"When things become conscious, then what arises are potions, right? If you're unconscious of what's orienting your life, you have no options." - @adyashanti.ogs
Have a beautiful weekend, everyone! ๐ฑ

Happy International Women's day! ๐
People ask me how I got into yoga. I tell them I wanted to find peace. But there is a lot more than just that. After having a miscarriage with my fourth baby followed by separation and divorce in foreign country I needed some time and space to reconnect with my emotions. I had never liked myself since I was a child but I found that I liked myself when doing yoga and it was yoga that helped me find contentment in other areas of my life. That was a huge thing for me and that lead me to find peace with myself. I believe that yoga is for everyone regardless of their age, gender, race, and body types and I truly enjoy sharing the benefits of yoga, finding balance in body and mind, and finding peace within ๐ฑ
"To overcome depression is to find one's meaning in life. If you believe that your life is meaningful but if you don't love (someone/thing) you can't help but experience as meaningless. If you love (someone/thing) even if you don't believe that life is meaningful you can't help but experience as meaningful." - @peter_rollins
Thanks to my friend who recommended me this post cast called @theminimalists Have a meaningful week, everyone! ๐ฑ

Seeking for healing doesn't indicate one's weakness. It's a proof of one's courage that admits and accepts their past and their profound will to move forward ๐ฑ

I turned 40 this week! ๐ Many thanks to all the people and events that let me live for 4 decades. I thought when I turn 40, I would be much wiser than I am now ๐ But at least I've learned that (especially these days) when I empty my mind, there is absolutely nothing left but gratitude. And it's always the gratitude that keeps everything going. Have a wonderful week, everyone! ๐ฑ

If someone hurts you, you don't need to force yourself to forgive them. Instead, please know that they themselves are deeply hurt. Knowing their pain may ease yours ๐ฑ
It's extremely difficult to do your part when you don't even know what your part is. Then someone up there told me your part changes as your circumstances change. Nothing stays the same on this earth, the life keeps evolving and so does your role. Have a nice week ๐ฑ
Today marks 3 years since Paradise Campfire. Losing our home and literally everything was definitely heartbreaking for us but I'm truly grateful that all my family are safe and healthy. It really is a miracle that we're alive on this earth right now and my heart goes out to everyone who's lost their loved ones.
Sometimes my inner critic is too loud that I can't stop thinking that I'm being useless. When I confessed this to my fiance he showered me with love and kind encouraging words and told me, "You don't need to be used by anyone anyway". Then I realized how much value I was putting onto what others think of me. It's always about the balance & mindfulness ๐ฑ

I hope everyone is transitioning well to the new semester and the new season. Are you feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the changes in your life? Are you looking for a new way to nurture yourself? If yes, then book a yoga session with me! I will plan each session according to your needs and we'll practice mindful breathing, yoga flows & savasana/meditation at the end. Hope to see you soon! ๐ฑ
When you find yourself criticizing / judging others or yourself, it indicates that you've been withered and dried up inside. If so, then go outside. Be in the nature. Get charged up! ๐ฑ
No matter how much you want to give people peace, it is difficult if you are tense. No matter how much you want to fill people's hearts, it's difficult if your heart is empty. Teaching yoga made me reaffirm the importance of self-love and self-care ๐ฑ

What a blessing to share the time of Yoga practice together with this beautiful family @mjgodoyh_mjg โจ I've been teaching at the gym, apartment building, private lessons, group lessons, but teaching a single family opened the door to another stage of teaching. Such fun and exciting experience that I can't express enough how much I'm grateful to this wonderful opportunity. Nothing more joyful than seeing these little ones learn and grow with essence of yoga ๐งโโ๏ธ๐งโโ๏ธ Have a nice week ๐ฑ

I am very excited to share these wonderful mist and roller from @minimamystica ๐ค This hand blended mist contains essential oils of lavender, sandalwood, juniper berry, lemon, rose, geranium, peppermint, eucalyptus, and rosemary. I love spraying it in the air over my mat to clear my mentality before the practice. It really does make mundane sacred โจ The roller is also hand blended, contains jojoba oil, Vitamin E oil, essential oil of sandalwood, orange, clary sage, frankincense, ylang ylang, and bergamot. I appreciate this blend because it has frankincense which helps to relieve stress and promote relaxation. You can check their website at minima-mystica.myshopify.com/
Special thanks to @tinyhealer for this lovely surprise!
Maia : Mommy, can we have the same hairstyle and wear the same clothes when I get bigger?๐
Me : Oh, I would love that! ๐ But I bet you will change your mind when you hit your teens. In fact, you'll probably want to do exact the opposite. ๐
Maia : I won't change my mind. Even if I get embarrassed by wearing the same clothes, I'll never change my mind and I'll always love you.
Kids are so adorable. We'll see how she feels in 4 years. Please don't change! Happy May ๐
