What I am learning and practicing throughout transition

June 16, 2016

This week has been full of laughter and tears. I have been soaking up my time here in Buenos Aires. My emotions are mixed between excitement to go back to the States and sadness for leaving BA. I am splitting my time between packing up our home, spending time with friends, and teaching my final classes with the beloved Buena Onda yoga. In these last couple of weeks here, I am looking back over the past three years and all that has happened in my life.

Transition is never easy and moving is always stressful. In this post, I will share with you some of the big things I am learning as well as the major things I am actively practicing as I go through this transition.

is timing really everything?

February 17, 2016

Timing is everything, some say. And there is truth to that. We cannot control the timing of life. We cannot make the perfect moment present itself whenever we want it. Sometimes we have to wait for inspiration to strike or for events to align in order to create a more fulfilling life, to make progress on a major life project, or even to find the right partner. Timing does impact our ability to affect true change in our lives.

However, that does not mean that we get to sit around twiddling our thumbs, waiting for that perfect moment to hit. We have to put in effort to realize change. We have to work when it is hard and inconvenient, work when things suck, when timing is awful. It may feel frustrating but we have to continue to take baby steps so that when the timing is right, we are prepared.
