5 Signs You're a People Pleaser
3 Simple Tricks to Stop Overthinking
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?
Top 3 Tips to Feel Luminous in a Nervous and Anxious World
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!
How to Set Goals for a New Month in Fall
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!

If You Don't Enjoy Yoga, Do This
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.

You Only Live Once (+ Why This Impacts Your Glow)
YOLO. You Only Live Once.
While many people use this acronym to "justify" going to parties every possible day, getting drunk, smoking, doing drugs or other toxic things, I see this a little differently:
I believe that since we only live once, it's even more important to live the best and happiest life we can. #theglowlife
Being healthy, feeling well-rested daily, doing meaningful work that makes a difference in this world, surrounding yourself with people you're obsessed with and can talk to about deep life stuff for hours is a blessing.
I personally want to live a happy life as long as I possibly can! What about you?
How to Make Affirmations Work for You
"I am creating the life of my dreams."
What a powerful statement, right? If you said that statement out loud, would it be true? Would you feel excited? The fascinating thing about affirmations, other than the fact that they truly work, is that they only work if you believe that they work. Your energy about them matters, your feelings about them matters, your internal voice matters, and your subconscious belief patterns matter.
How to Stop People Pleasing
3 Tips to Handle Post-COVID Overwhelm
Although many countries are opening up, and some activities are returning to a "new normal," many of my clients, however, have been feeling quite socially overwhelmed. There is so much to catch up on, so many friends to reconnect with and so many functions to attend (in-person!). They have been saying YES to everything, and then feeling over-committed and resentful of the pile that is building up for them.
Introverts, listen up!
How to Create Lasting Transformation in Your Glow
Here's why free stuff won't help you glow up
You're not committed enough.
In April, I ran a free 3-day stop-the-stress challenge. 150 women signed up, which is awesome! However, only 4 of them made it to day 3... Where were the other 146? Probably, they got overwhelmed by their calendars, got unexpected work projects, had other plans (which is totally ok!), were so busy with life.
And if you were one of them, don't worry, I'm not blaming you :) In fact, I used to be exactly like that! I used to think that the free stuff would change my life drastically - which it rarely ever did!
How to Eat to Reduce Overwhelm and Stress
Is the majority of your food vibrant? Green? Red? Yellow? Purple? As in spinach, peppers, carrots, strawberries, and pineapple.
Or is it brown, beige, and white...? As in bread, cake, pasta, sandwiches, and processed snacks?
Be mindful of what you put in your body, because it directly impacts your body, your soul, and your emotions. Think about it: what you eat, goes into your stomach, gets digested and becomes your blood, your cells, and other bodily tissue.
3 Simple Action Steps to Sleep Better
Loving Yourself (for real!) as a Perfectionist
Self-Love
...means showing up to the f*ing mat when all you want to do is eat chips and watch Netflix.
...means doing the damn heart opening meditation when you just want to close your heart and crawl up in bed and cry.
...means writing in your freaking journal that you just want to throw out the window.
What's the difference between self-care and self-love?
Self-care on the good says is just kind pampering. Face masks, bubble baths, lighting a candle, reading a book... It feels nice and you really love it. You practice something regularly, you strengthen a muscle, so that when things don’t always go right, you know you have the strength to get through it. You know you can rely on yourself.
Self-love is practicing self-care when you really don't want to
Practicing self-care on the hard days is true self-love. You do it when you really don't want to. You do it when you just want to throw in the towel and walk away. You do it when all you want to do is hide under the covers and cry and sleep. Showing up with kindness, compassion, and love for yourself in these moments, you have figured out a bit part of what I call "the Glow Life".
It may require a bit of a loving kick in the butt from your higher self sometimes, and you may really want to do the opposite of it, but when you have reached the point where, in your darkest moments, you take care of yourself in a loving way, that's what true self-love is.
Love yourself enough to show up for yourself when you need yourself the most.
