Have you noticed the shop windows are now all fall?
Yep, it’s happening.
Summer is slowly slipping away as the new season starts to shape up with new silhouettes.
My body is still quite content in a pair of botanica shorts and huarache sandals. But it can be kind of fun to start prepping for what’s coming next.
Time doesn’t fly…it disappears.
And fortunately, or unfortunately– you never know what lies around the corner for yourself, and those you love.
There’s a lot of crazy happening in the world right now.
So rather than losing yourself to the stress of the scene, take the opportunity to invest yourself into the mini moments that make up your day.
Do what you can to bring value and meaning into those moments.Read More »Fortunately + Unfortunately John + Yoko Still Make Sense
When working on photo shoots, and with private clients, I rarely recommend black.
I go for brights, prints, or other vibrant combinations to illuminate a picture, or my clients wardrobe.
I never knew there was a deeper meaning behind these color choices. I just liked how bolder colors made more of a statement.
Turns out, the colors we wear (and eat and surround ourselves in) do make a difference in how we feel.
And paying attention to these choices is key to styling from the inside out.Read More »Styling From The Inside: Secrets From The Colour Coach
So I did my first triathalon last week.
Ok. Let me re-phrase…
I was one third of my triathalon team. I rode the bike.
I’ve never raced before. In fact, I’m not into competitive sports at all. (I’m more of an Om Shanti kind of girl.)
But I do love bike riding so I figured, why not? I’ll try something new.
And you know what…it was awesome!
Here’s why this race was such a success (even though we didn’t win).Read More »Here’s How To Win The Race (Or At Least Finish)
Though not a form of meditation, the healing art of bodywork is definitely an opportunity to practice mindfulness…perhaps in the most relaxing fashion! And similar to yoga– massage has the built-in benefit of getting into your body, so you can get out of your head.

Have you ever been to SoulCycle? If yes, then you know how important it is to find the beat of your ride.
If no, you can read about my experience in the indoor cycling sensation here.
Basically, the beat to SoulCycle is like the heart of the class. It’s what keeps everyone pumped up through their spin while maintaining the foundation for the collective energy in the room.
I’m not a regular.
Or even close.
I’ve been about a dozen times. And in the bulk of those classes, I was consumed with trying to find the beat.
My eyes would scope around the room looking for the pros, those who were in sync and in the groove.
Of course, the lead bounce of the instructor was the first place that caught my attention. Then I’d check out the front row with their tattoos and tattered tees who were also always pulsing on the beat.
I’d try to match their moves in hopes of simulating their steps.
But it never happened. And I’d pedal along on my own…slightly off from the rest of the group.
