Blog postWhich reality do you live in?
“You were born into this world alone and you will die alone.” — The Buddha The goal of enlightenment is to keep yourself vibrating at the highest level of love. I have been studying and practicing Ho’oponopono lately and it has propelled me into a blissful state of being. Basically, it’s a mantra of “I Love You” all the time. Of course, there is much more than this, but this is the main concept. This vibration links you to the divine, and linked do I feel2 weeks ago Read more -

Blog post“Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.”-Leonardo de Vinci Dr. Cal Newport recently gave a Ted Talk titled “Quit Social Media” where he went on to explain how addiction causes fragmented thought and low self-esteem, and how it is not necessary to gain followers to have a successful business. Although I do agree with most of his ideas, I was compelled to tell my story of how, the power of social media and the connections that I formed within it, allowed me to g4 weeks ago Read more

Blog postPeaceful Connection
“Mu” means pleasure, “Dra” means to draw in or bring forth. “Mudra” is to bring forth pleasure. Often, while driving down the highway, my index finger will find its way, circling around the steering wheel, and connecting with my thumb. This connection creates a sense of peace that gently settles into my entire body.
Although my index finger will naturally find its way to that connection, I have found that it is harder for me to be comfortable with the feeli1 month ago Read more -
Blog postI don’t have a typical job. I designed my life this way. I wake up at 4 am every morning and write. I struggle. I drink coffee. I watch the sunrise from my desk. I write and then delete it. I go for a walk. I come back and write again. I am a writer. I decided to fully step into the life of a professional writer about seven years ago. I don’t have to leave my couch if I don’t want to. I don’t do hard labor, but I work hard. Most don’t see it this way. Most think I sleep in, watch tv, go for a1 month ago Read more

Blog postQuantum and Conscious Thought
“Ahum de LeeLa:” To be in God’s light.
From this, I was named. A simple four-letter word, attached to my soul to ripple energy out into the universe. “Ahum de Leela,” “Ahum de Leela,” “Ahum de Leela.” Repeated three times for the mind, the body, and the soul. Repeated throughout my life to remind me that I AM in God’s light. (I have a confession to make, as a child, I hated my name, I insisted on being called something different.

Blog postWhen you change your inner world, your outer world will change too!
What is a Mantra?
Words hold an energetic frequency. Hateful words can change an environment. Loving words can change the world. A series of words can change your mindset and the way we look out into the world. This is a Mantra. A series of words that are usually gifted to you by a Guru. These words are for you and you alone. Plucked from God’s lips to your ears. It is said that if you speak them to someone el1 month ago Read more -

Blog postThe roads that I have traveled to get here.
Dry and cracked. Thirsty for the monsoons that will soon come.
These roads, narrow, dirt and cobblestone, weave deep into the belly of India. Lined with palm trees and herds of water buffalo.
Landscapes smudge past my window. Blurred visions of lush green marshes popping with colorful saris that squat in rice fields.
Broken towns held together by laundry hanging out to dry. Canopies shade from the hot sun, as chil2 months ago Read more -
Blog postSometimes you just want a little more then what comes in the box. Ask anyone that has ever eaten my food and they will tell you that i always go extra. I am always pushing the flavor boundaries. I fully embody being a spice queen. This upgrade of mac and cheese is my best creation yet.

Blog post“The way we carry our shoulders and arms sends a message to the world. Not surprisingly, many common expressions incorporate these messages into our daily conversations: shoulder a burden, shoulders to the wheel, lean on my shoulder, pull your shoulders back, chip on your shoulder, broad shoulders, stoop-shouldered, shouldering responsibility, standing on someone’s shoulders, built upon someone’s shoulders, looking over your shoulder, carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders.

Blog postCan a butterfly flap its wings and create a tsunami around the world?
As many of your know, I am obsessed with the energy connectors of the body, and the superhighway of information in our world. This is the basis of Ayurveda. That mear fact that we are microcosms in a macrocosm. Everything that is inside of us is in the universe. We are energy and with that, we have antennas that extend into the macrocosm to transmit frequencies. Our thoughts can create worlds, attract matter, and he2 months ago Read more -
Blog postIn the shala in India, Tantra yoga classes start by lying on the floor, eyes closed. We would wait until the teacher came into the room, only knowing to begin by listening to their words from the back of the room. They did not introduce themselves, nor did they explain. They simply spoke the words. At first, I was confused and a little angry because I didn't know what was happening. I had to look at the other students to see what some of the asanas were, but then I found a relaxing calmness i2 months ago Read more

Blog postSmile
In high school I was voted "Best Smile". My aunt used to tell me that you can get anywhere in this life with a great smile. I believe this to be true. My smile opened doors and made connections more so then I could have ever thought in my younger years.
Lately, I have lost my smile. Maybe its the extreme diverseness in the world today, maybe its war, maybe its inflation, maybe its that I dont get to go dancing anymore with my friends, maybe its sadness, or mayb2 months ago Read more -
Blog postThe point of the keto diet is to rid the body's dependence on sugar so that it does not burn sugar for fuel it starts to burn fat. Although I have already come out as Keto adjacent I still incorporate a lot of those principles into my life. Reducing sugar is a good thing and I am always looking for creative concoctions that will help me do that. So, if you are trying to kick the mid-day sugar craving try this instead of that soda or milky way.

Blog postCan you remember who you are?
There was a brief moment this morning. It was right between coming out of my dream state and waking up to my reality. That I remembered who I was. It was a feeling of a true sense of self, a flash of light, a smile that came across my face, the best feeling, that I was doing exactly what I came to this earth to do.
Let me explain; for the last few months, I have been a little down on myself. I guess I have been the classical definition of depresse2 months ago Read more -
Blog postThere has been a book stirring in my soul for years. It wants to be called Kitchen Witchery. Books will come to me in my dreams. A gentle tapping on the window. A quiet whisper to ask to be brought to the world. Sometimes they sit on my shoulder or my desk for years and then one day, when they are ready, they leap from my fingertips to the page. I have very little control over what it will say. I am but a vessel for information to flow. I am excited about the fruition of this book. A cookbook3 months ago Read more

Blog postFrom Hustler to Healer
The way they see me is different from how I am now. I know that it is hard for my friends, family, and lovers to see me this way. They say that “this” is just a phase, and eventually, it will pass. But, they don’t realize that I have not changed…..I see things differently now!

This beautifully written, heartfelt memoir reaches into the depths of all of our souls. A poetically raw telling of a young girl that experiences trauma as a child. Without tools to process such emotions they festered and created a tsunami of physical illnesses, lack of self-worth, and depression. She eventually changes the trajectory of her life and travels to India. It is in India where she discovers holistic healing modalities, yoga, meditation, health, happiness, and personal freedom. It is a story of dichotomies. A story of how we present ourselves to the world and how we really are behind closed doors. It is a book of life experiences and life lessons that can help others learn to process trauma and inspire them to live a life that is happy and healthy.
