🌪 Kali, the power of radical change
Hi friend,
How time flies! I feel like so much has happened in the blink of an eye. Time is strange like that, both elusive and yet working its mojo on everything... including us, whether we like it or not ;)
The Eastern traditions place a big emphasis on the truth of impermanence - the reality that nothing lasts. We can readily observe how Nature works in cycles & seasons, and so does our life. Still, most of us will have a tendency to resist change and cling to what we know, often to the point where we get stuck in old ways that don’t work for us anymore. Sounds familiar?
🌪 Sometimes it takes a crisis, like an illness or a loss of some kind for us to finally face the things that hold us back. These experiences can be both intense and liberating - when things fall apart, you see more clearly the big picture and cut through the BS. While difficult, these experiences can show us how to be fierce, true, & FREE.
In Hindu tradition, this energy is represented by the Goddess Kali (check her out) who governs time, death, and transformation. 👹 She’s this dark, wild & radical female energy who both terrifies us into waking up while loving us to death like a Great Mother. As part of a training this month, I got to create a short practice and meditation around Kali which I’m sharing with you. Enjoy!
With (fierce) love x

Hi Reader, The other day I found myself watching a video about this new workout to look lean & sexy in under 15min a day. I scrolled down and was shown a powerful meditation technique that can 10x your productivity. Then spent the next hour googling / fantasizing about this perfect body and focused mind that could be mine if only... (ofc without actually trying a single of these exercises 🥲) Let's face it, the wellness & self-dev industry is NOISY. It can leave us feeling overwhelmed and...
Hi Reader, did you miss me? :) I blanked out on sending last week's NL because I was SO EXCITED about hosting my 1st yoga retreat! And it went amaziiiing 🎵 Finding SPACE was the main theme of the retreat and it was a great opportunity to reset in a supportive and quiet environment. The real flex though is how to bring this renewed energy, calm and balance within everyday conditions that are far from "perfect". When the phone is pinging every 5min, more work is added to your already full...
Hi Reader, It's good to be back! I just returned from 3 weeks in Goa (India) to connect with the land of yoga and deepen my personal practice. Do you know it was the first time I ever went to a yoga retreat? Of course I was like a kid at a candy shop 😇 I met the most wonderful teachers, made new friends, had an 'ashram'-like experience, immersed myself in the local culture... and filled my heart to the brim. Most of us look at the turn of the year as a time to look ahead. Instead I tried to...
