Before you can prepare for the new year, you need to let go of the past year. That has always been my belief and my practice for the past 6 years. I’ve recreated my New Year Ritual , which was originally inspired by the teachings of Baptiste Yoga and wise words from Brene Brown, and this version nuggets of wisdom from Gabby Bernstein. It’s the same but different. and more powerful. Enjoy this guided journal ritual that will empower you to create a purposeful vision of the new year.
How many of us are really awake? How many of us are really here, in the present moment, aware and not lost in the past or future moments?
Are you now here or nowhere?
This post is a reflection on Week 1 of Baron Baptiste’s 40 Days to Personal Revolution and highlights the various gems from the same-named book.
Can you live your life with just one Word? A word that represent your values and how you want to show up in the world.
I’ve been living my life through 2 words - courage and possibilities. Whenever I feel resistance or I get stuck, I ask myself - what’s possible here? How can I practice courage in this moment?
I’m giving you the opportunity to discover your Word for life Here… are you up for it.
I'm beginning to sound like broken record. I do hold back from being Me, because of the not-good-enoughs swirling in my DNA, which cause me anxiety.
Before you tell me to STOP IT....
I have stopped my not-good-enoughs in its tracks, but it has to start somehow somewhere.. Something has to catch fire before you put the fire out.
I don't think there's any way to stop the thoughts from forming. And the hardest job is not believe in the lie that we believed as the truth all our lives. And it's possible to listen, acknowledge and do what scares you most, which is to drop the not-good-enoughs and just be good, and have faith that that is enough.
(This is the 5th of the Eight Universal Principles for Stepping up to the Edge by Baron Baptiste taken from his book -“Journey into Power”.)
It's about shame, about being vulnerable, about feeling what you feel which is uncomfortable and scary. And you know what - It's ok if you are feeling angry. It's Ok if you're feeling Sad. It’s ok not be ok. Feel What you are feeling. Stop hiding.
Since you're here, you're READY NOW.
This is not a review of the Baptiste level 3 training. Instead I share with you my learnings, my discoveries, my experiences and my reflections from this yoga life teacher training. Warning: It’s a very long post.
You may or may not ever attend a baptiste yoga class or Baptiste training, but be willing to drop what you know, and just be in pure listening. You never know, you might discover something new about yourself.
My biggest takeway is discovering what my life is for. My life is for empowering my family and my community to live life courageously from the heart. With purpose and kind determination.

This post is about accepting uncertainties, and that acceptance gives access to freedom and vitality.
It's about the tools I've used to overcome my fear and uncertainties. (and I will give you the tools for FREE)
If you're struggling with uncertainties or facing a difficult challenge, THIS is for YOU.
If you know someone who is facing a difficult challenge or situation, THIS is also for YOU.
