4 tips to wash your hair like a modern yogi
I used to hate routines, nowadays I'm thriving in them. It might have happened since I became a mom (and a certified yogi) a few years ago. As a mom, I've had to constantly find routines that would suit my little one while still having some me-time. I basically use my skin/hair-care routine to take care of myself as much...
Mindful Skincare Routine – Monat
I recently realised that skincare routines could also be another opportunity for me and anyone who is "too busy" to meditate or relax, to actually pause, slow down and connect with your presence in front of the mirror. A time to practice positive affirmations and to boost your self-esteem. It was the beginning of the year when I decided to...
Your body is your temple
We all know our body is what allows us to experience this physical experience in this particular planet. Doesn't make sense then to take care of it and nourish it in the best possible way? That is why I want to share a little bit of what I've been learning in regards to skin and hair care. I didn't have a...
The rules of the heart
I have never been a fan of rules. I understand that society needs them to agree on certain things for sure. However, sometimes I find myself doubting the decisions made by our leaders (especially during these Covid-19 months). Am I the only one? I don't think so but I do know some people take these rules more seriously than others....

Are you willing to slow down and to arrive in the present moment with each cycle of the breath? The awareness of the breath creates a door to connect with our true nature, yoga poses are merely windows. We will be observing sensations, thoughts an emotions from the heart as we move on the mat. The mat will become a neutral witness...
Moving from the heart
I had heard about the power of the heart so many times, but to be honest I think I had never truly understood what this force really means. I've been contemplating this concept very deeply over the last few days - It's not a coincidence that I'm receiving the "new" year with so much more clarity from my heart. This...
From panic attacks to wellness routines
As a child, nobody told me how to soothe my nervous system when I was upset. I guess it's something we all learn to do in our own way (with more or less guidance from our parents or caregivers). There were many instances during my childhood in which I would feel deeply sad, not knowing what else to do but cry...
Listening to the whispers of the soul
Sometimes I need silence, just to be present, feeling my body and emotions while I breathe and stay still on my yoga mat. Sometimes the thoughts are just noise from my ego trying to explain how I feel and creating new problems to solve. I also ask big questions: What is my purpose? Is there any profound meaning in all this? How...
We’re all a bit sad (and that’s ok)
“We are here to awaken from our illusion of separateness.” Thich Nhat Hanh About 3 years ago my life changed completely. From the moment I gave birth up until now, I've been becoming a different person. As a first-time mom, I constantly try to make my daughter feel happy every day. I also wonder a lot about the true meaning of...
