Life of late — It’s been soothing, refreshing, and grounding. Every day I uncover something within myself that surprises me.

In this season I’ve allowed life to move more slowly, almost like a gentle tide rolling in and out. Settling into my new home — a space that I can feels safe, grounding, and quietly beautiful. There is a certain magic in four walls that allows me to rest, and to simply be.

The days have been filled with small rituals that feel like treasures: the comfort of hot chocolate crowned with cream, the earthy joy of fruit picked straight from the branch, the hum of a farmers market alive with children and voices, and the serenity of a pink evening sky opening into endless shades of light and cloud. Each of these moments has asked me to look closer, to listen more deeply, to notice the beauty within the simple life. 🌿

And then there is the gift of friendship — time with loved ones who remind me what it means to laugh freely, to share a meal with warmth, to carry lightness even when the world feels heavy. These connections weave threads of belonging through my days, teaching me again and again that we are never meant to walk alone.

Practice-wise, I find myself turning inward, especially at a slower rhythm as an invitation to recalibrate the mind and body. Some days I breath as my only practice, other days I move my body intently on the mat as I have for years now. But every day is a brand new experience. I am learning not to linger in the past, nor to rush toward the future, but to savour the present — to plant myself fully here, one breath at a time. In this stillness, I feel both tender and strong, both quiet and alive.

And so I stand here — neither chasing nor resisting — remembering that life is already happening, and that, in itself, is enough. 🌊✨

Hi. 👋 Just in time for a February update. 😊

It was a month of slowing down, adjusting, and learning to move differently. Healing hasn’t been about “getting back to normal” but about redefining what normal even means. Some days, it looks like small victories—figuring out how to set up my space so I can work comfortably 💻, adapting movements to fit where I am now. Other days, it looks like stillness, listening, and accepting that progress isn’t always visible in the moment. ✨

I’ve never seen injury as a setback. In yoga 🧘‍♀️, we learn to stay aware, to notice the body’s signals instead of fighting against them. Injury isn’t an interruption—it’s a traffic cone. 🚧 A quiet but clear marker that tells me where to slow down, what to avoid, and what is still open to me. It doesn’t mean I stop moving. It means I move differently.

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to be an athlete—not in the traditional sense, but in the way movement is woven into everyday life. 🏋️‍♀️ It’s easy to believe that strength is only measured in peak performance, in how fast, how heavy, how far. But what if real strength is in the adaptation itself? In meeting the body where it is, in still choosing movement even when it looks nothing like before?

Because at the end of the day, rehab is just training in the presence of injury, isn't it? 🏃‍♀️ Movement isn’t about waiting until you’re at your strongest to begin again. It’s about showing up as you are, working with what’s in front of you, and finding meaning in the process—limitations and all.

To me, true sportsmanship isn’t just about athleticism—it’s a mental game. 🧠 You win with your mind before your body even catches up. The real test isn’t whether I can perform at my peak but whether I can keep showing up, adapting, and moving forward despite the obstacles.

And so, I keep moving.
