As the warmer days approach as signs of summer being around the corner, it's the perfect time to get your mind, heart, and body ready for that beautiful inside-out summer glow. It's not really about looking good on the outside, or getting a slim bikini body (we don’t believe in that at all over here!), but about feeling confident and radiant from within and being strong and resilient in case you may face any challenges this summer.
Let's face it: perfectionism is keeping you stuck in so many ways. And it probably has been for years, if not decades. It makes you work extra hours every day, because you just can't finish that project without it being 100% perfect. It makes you spend every free minute taking care of your friend's needs, your parents' desires, and everyone else who may need your help. You feel exhausted and tired, because you can't switch of your mind at night and often don't wakeup well-rested.
I'm sure you are very familiar with those moments when you can't stop thinking... Your thoughts are spinning and you're going back and forth about something you should do or say, or not do and not say, or something you could have done better, and you absolutely cannot focus on anything else!
Why do we overthink?
It happens so quickly these days (and often daily) that we get into fearful thoughts about the future, our health, and our loved ones with all the information that's floating around online and offline. And while there are so many moving parts in this that we cannot control at all, it is more important than ever that you control what is in your control: how you feel in your body.
See, a few years ago, I used to do vinyasa or hatha yoga daily at home, but my body doesn't crave that type of movement anymore. Right now, my body needs more sweaty workouts, more flowy movements, and deep relaxation practices - and that's OK!
Happy September, beautiful! How do you bring in the beginning of a new month?
I love sitting down and thinking about what I want to do, achieve, work on, play with, and enjoy in the new month. I just spent time reflecting with my bestie on goals until the end of the year, but let's stick to this month for now!

I just got back from a 2-month trip to Bali, and I honestly thought I'd be going to Yoga several times a week (doesn't everyone go to Bali because of yoga?!), but I actually haven't gone to a single regular yoga class while I was there! I much preferred doing some juicy Yin yoga, meditation classes, chanting, and dancing. And my heart is so full right now.

I spent last weekend christmassing in Milan, overindulging in real Italian Pizza and high quality truffle covered pasta! I'm also using this time to reflect on 2017. It's always good to be away from home to do such fun activities to kinda see the bigger picture more easily. But before I'm sharing details about my next free training, I want to share some of my personal stories with you...
How does it make you feel when you walk into a department store and everything is full of Christmas decoration and glimmer and all you hear is Christmas songs? There are only 41 days left until it's Christmas again! SO MAYBE, THIS MAKES YOU FEEL... stressed out, because your calendar is already filling up with dinners and parties. Or desperate...
Last week did NOT go as planned. I wanted to write some inspiring emails, I had lots of calls scheduled with amazing women, I had meetings with my clients. I was going to meet some local influencers and exchange experiences with them. I was going to go boxing to get back on track with my workout. I was going to create this new program that I'm really excited about. I was going to feel just AH-MAA-ZING!
