I’ve long been fascinated by the constructs of space and time.

The element of fire offers us many gifts—creativity, transformation, the light of Truth, sensuality, passion, fun, and the ability to uncover and express that which has been hidden for a long time, perhaps for generations…

After nearly seven years of working as a full-time wellness practitioner, I’ve studied so much and accumulated certifications galore—most recently a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification.

You already know that the cycles of the moon affect the tides. Throughout the globe, on new and full moons, the gravitational forces resulting from the alignment of the sun, moon, and Earth create the highest of high tides and the lowest of low tides.  

I still remember sitting in a little conference room on the 59th floor of my midtown office, having a perfectly civilized discussion about some set of deliverables with my boss and co-workers, and having the distinct feeling of suddenly and desperately wanting to run, screaming out of that stuffy room.

Metamorphosis has always been part of life on planet Earth.

I learn so much from the people I work with that I almost feel bad about it. Like, aren’t I supposed to be teaching you? But I guess we’re all learning from each other in an infinite exchange…

I’ve been leading ceremonies around the change of seasons for over five years now, but only recently discovered the profound impact that it’s had on my life.

I distinctly remember opening my own akashic records for the first time in 2020 in my little basement space in Queens. I had stumbled upon this word—akashic—and something about it felt like a deep remembering.

A few weeks ago I gave a talk on How to Make a Decision and it seems that it subconsciously came in preparation for this moment.

I did my study abroad in Beijing after two years of Chinese language study in college. What began as a curiosity to explore anything Asian, as an attempt to understand my own heritage, soon unfolded into pure delight in learning to read and write characters and little triumphs in recognizing and replicating vocal tones.

Tomorrow is the new moon in Taurus and I’m feeling the invitation to remember the blessing that is my body. Despite being in the “middle ages.” Despite a history of chronic pain and childhood trauma. Despite sometimes wanting to dissociate from the corporeal, which is so easy to do in our mind-driven society…

In my early teens, I began practicing yoga from an article I found in my mom’s fitness magazine. I was already into dance and movement, but something about these poses felt like a remembering . . .

I attribute a lot of things to my multicultural heritage—an obsession with language, an unending devotion to rice, and a propensity to playfully interweave elements.

There’s always a lot of buzz around the full moon—and rightfully so! When she’s at peak luminosity it’s hard not to admire her light. There’s beauty combined with a bit of danger—the urge let go, the nudge to be seen, and of course, werewolves. And, after leading full moon ceremonies every month for the past 5 years, I can tell you that the full moon is totally deserving of the hype.

But what about the new moon?

For most of my life, I was a voracious reader. As kid, instead of going to summer camp, my parents would drop me and my sisters off at the public library for the workday—true story.

You have a fire within you.

Yesterday, I did volunteer reiki in the dementia ward of a local hospital. It’s so fulfilling to share this gentle practice with those precious souls who are deeply ready to reconnect with a profound sense of inner calm.

In the mid-1990’s, musician Sarah McLachlan invited Paula Cole to be the opening act on her Fumbling Towards Ecstasy tour. This was a big no-no in the music industry.

If you’re reading this, then it’s clear that your voice is one that needs to be heard. For the most recent millennia, the voices going against humanity have become louder and louder. And we see all of that coming to a head perhaps at this very moment. What does this mean for you?
