Hello Yogis,

I hope you are doing well and for those in the US, I hope you had a wonderful 4^th of July!

Usually these are the kind of emails I send to my subscribers only but, I felt I really need to share this with all of you.

If you haven’t seen any new blog post last week, it’s not because I was busy celebrating, I was moving.

It was an hard decision but the Universe certainly supported me on this, I felt the energy calling me on doing it.

For those who knows me, I’ve lived in Miami for 7 years and then moved to NY, loved it and lived there for few years and came back for 6 months this year in Miami… It felt good, so good that we decided to stay longer.

I went back last week to NY to empty my apartment and it felt nostalgic, a lot of emotions and feelings all together (new Moon in Cancer was felt at its fullest) but it was the right decision, for now.

After a long crazy week spent packing, unpacking, disassembly and throwing away things that didn’t’ serve me anymore, not only tangible things… I am finally back in Miami Beach, teaching Yoga, enjoying the Sun (not exactly enjoying the humidity but that’s part of the summer package and it’s ok).

These last days have been hectic and several times I asked myself what I should “do” more.

The entrepreneur in me is conditioned to think that more is more. What comes next, what I need to do, what I want to change, how much content I should add, how many trips I’ll take before the end of this Year, when it will be my next Workshop. My mental answers were focusing on: I need to put even more effort, my upcoming events need more effort, I need to go through my To-do list, I need to do this and that… I just finished a crazy move, and I was already on all the next hundred of to-do list thinking: I need to be doing MORE.

Then, I felt overwhelmed again and the only answer here obviously was: Yoga.

I woke up wanting to send an email, I wanted to meet some friends I didn’t have time to meet yet, I wanted to drop off on a bunch of stuff about upcoming contents and events, like a nervous tick ..do, do, do…do.

Instead, I meditated for 15 minutes, did some breath-work, I practiced 1h of Yoga and went to a park staring at a tree for 15 minutes, ending hugging that tree. Best decision ever, I felt grounded.

One of my greatest lessons in life is trying to unhook myself worth from my productivity. I think we can all relate.

Meditate is one of the Yoga tools that helps us to lose the ego, the doubts, the fear, it brings back clarity and perspective.

Sometimes we just need to trust the process, slow down a bit, breath and enjoy the journey.

Are you trusting life? Are you trusting the Universe, the process? Can you stare a tree and release the timeline? Can you find stillness?

Let’s try together!
