first time in this Austrian winter wonderland! ❄️❄️❄️ today’s itinerary: get back on skis. i haven’t been since i broke my knee almost two years ago. for some time, i wasn’t sure i would be able to again. but i’m happy i didn’t allow those doubts to take over. here’s to getting back up after falling down.❤️

n e w yoga/wellbeing Q&A series! • i’ve been getting different questions lately & as much as we sometimes think we’re alone in these things, we’re not so let’s open up together. each week i’ll posting one question or message from you along with my response.👇🏼 • Q:// ‘I just took up yoga and I get so frustrated with myself for not being stretchy and not being able to do the poses. I almost cried out of frustration at class lol 😩’// • A:|| Not being stretchy is actually so good! It means you can feel things much more & get to that edge easier. Flexible people have a hard time to feel stretches & have to push further to get there. And can also sometimes go from pose to pose as a routine rather than an experience in the moment. Embrace this period as a beginner. These emotions that have come up are good. Feel them. If you need to scream or cry on the mat, do it. Question them. Ask yourself where these feelings are coming from. Why you’re being so hard on you. Usually, deep down they come from a core believer of not being good enough. It’s a process. Yoga is really not at all just for those who are flexible. Keep going. Don’t give up. Accept where you are today. Stay gentle with your body and self. Everything will start to flow easier bit by bit. It just all takes time and dedicated practice. I also couldn’t do anything in the beginning. We all start somewhere. Have fun with it. Most importantly - don’t forget how amazing you are & that your worth does NOT depend on if you can touch your toes or get into some pose.❤️|| • if you have a question, comment it below or send me a private message, i’ll be sharing another next week.⚡️⚡️⚡️ • outfit by @yogabyjulz

whenever we feel overwhelmed or in a stressful situation, we automatically go into either fight, flight, or freeze. each one of us have one that feels more natural, which is linked to our belief systems. mine is flight. when so many big things to do pile up, my mind loves to ignore it & start doing the favorable tasks instead. but as uncomfortable at it is, once this story can be noticed, it’s possible to face it & change. it’s not always an easy thing to admit. it’s taken me a while to notice my own patterns let alone type this out to share with others. but guess what? we’re all human and i don’t believe our negative patterns are anything to be ashamed of. even when we think we’re alone in something, we’re not. sorry i’ve been a bit quiet on here lately. i kinda went into my flight mode. not because i don’t enjoy this platform but because sometimes you just don’t feel inspired to share. that’s okay too. i’ve noticed that the mind loves to make excuses which are so not even real. in those moments, i’m learning for myself to just keep taking action. one foot in front of the other even when it feels like you have to drag them through the mud. as all things in life, this phase too shall pass.🌙 • outfit by @yogabyjulz #yogabyJulz
do not fast forward into something you’re not ready for or allow yourself to shrink back into what’s comfortable growth lives in the uneasiness the in-between the unfinished sentence you are a season of becoming.🌼 // - @danielledoby • 📷 by @_just_an_eye_ (@elodyhafner) edible flowers by @botanika.lu
u n a t t a c h m e n t to the outcome.🌙 • ||Work alone is your privilege, never the fruits thereof. Never let the fruits of action be your motive; and never cease to work.|| i read this passage in ‘Light on Yoga’ this morning. • it got me to think how often we do things in search for the outcome, already taking our mind to the future of how something will turn out. rather than staying in the moment of whatever it is we are doing, enjoying it regardless of if it’s a success or failure. do you ever notice how sometimes when we achieve a goal, it’s not long before we quickly jump to the next one? maybe it’s not so much about getting the goal but rather being in the process. that’s where our biggest growth lies - not in the beginning or the end but in the middle. it’s usually not the most comfortable space to be in. it usually stirs things up, bringing many highs and lows & sometimes even leaving you with questioning everything. it’s usually a lot of work. but that alone is our advantage. being able to be here in the now, having this experience.🌻✨
