Starting Anew

November 1, 2016

Starting over is tough. Restarting, reestablishing, regaining momentum... I feel daunted by all that I have to begin again.

We have moved to a new state, a new city. I am re-envisioning my career path. I am restarting the Happy Heart site after many weeks of silence...

I feel overwhelmed and some of the old fears start to set back in -- will I find purpose; will I do as well as I have done in the past; will I find a community; am I good enough to take on this new stage in my journey?

But what I am reminding myself of is that I am not starting from scratch. I am not starting from nothing. Over the years and the changes I have been through, I have built up many tools and lessons. I have grown so much since the last time I had to "start over."

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.

Grounded & Centered

Explorations on feeling grounded amidst change

Life is constant change. We are constantly moving and growing and changing. Every day is different. But sometimes it is much harder. During those major life shifts or transitions, when change feels particularly hard, we can completely lose our center. We forget what it means to feel grounded. We find ourselves having to pick up the pieces of normal life and figure out a way to move forward. But how do we do that? How do we rediscover our center and come back to that feeling of being grounded?
