June Reflection (2016)

“Without reflection, we go blindly on our way, creating more unintended consequences, and failing to achieve anything useful.” ― Margaret J. Wheatley Each month, I set aside a chunk of time to reflect on the previous month: memorable moments, lessons I learned, how I spent my time, how I’m different, who/what I’m grateful for, improvements…

Lisbon, Portugal

“So why’d you decide to go to Portugal?” There could be any number of answers: the history, the beaches, the nightlife, the food, the people. My answer? “I found cheap plane tickets.” Yes, I went to Portugal not because it was on my bucket list (although I had heard great things about the country) nor…

Yoga-ing Around Iceland :)

Yoga and travel are two of my favorite things. And when you travel with your best friend who also happens to be a photographer, you naturally fall into the role of “model” for the trip. Now, I’m not very natural when it comes to being in front of the camera (that’s what my younger sisters…

When Life Gets in the Way 

If you’ve been following the news in suburban Philadelphia the past couple weeks, you might have heard about the church shooting that took place at Keystone Fellowship. A horrible tragedy took place, leaving families on both sides grieving and coping with unimaginable losses. My heart continues to break for them. All I have to do…

100 Days of Yoga Project

The idea of walking into a yoga class can be intimidating — even for someone who has been practicing for a while! You may not feel flexible enough, know enough poses, understand the terms the teacher uses, or be comfortable in such a potentially vulnerable environment. And that’s okay. But letting yourself stand still because…

My Iceland Adventure

A few years ago, I had a brief layover in Iceland. While I was in Reykjavik,  I decided I was going to come back and explore this beautiful country one day. So I did! When I found cheap plane tickets, I quickly enlisted my friend Janine, and we made our way to this beautiful country filled…
