Stop wasting your money on those insanely expensive wrinkle cream and get into the power of gelatin & natural oils. There are many recipes for gelatin (essentially cooked, powdered collagen) based foods and shelves full of skin-safe oils (such as extra virgin organic coconut oil). Consume 1 tbsp of gelatin and apply coconut oil (or an oil that is best for your skin) everyday and watch those wrinkles fade away into the night :) Taking Gelatin internally provides the body the building blocks to build great skin, hair and nails from the inside out and helps reduce wrinkles (and stretch marks, as Ive found since mine are vanishing this time while Im still pregnant!). http://ow.ly/K9dCr

My thought of the day: if the old saying "nice guys finish last" is true, it's only because these kind souls are enjoying the ride:) moral of the story: stop focusing on the final product, stay present, and embrace the beauty of every single moment.

Productivity tip of the millennium: the best solutions will come to you only when you create calmness and clarity in your surroundings. Next time you are stuck on a problem, step away and take quiet time for yourself and you will find that the silence will be a remedy to the situation. :)

"If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath" - Amit Ray #stress #anxiety #health #mindfulness #quote

As my new website is in the process of creation, I must ramble on the Facebook page. Hope you don't mind! I'm sitting with my coffee, preparing to teach a yoga class by finding some super sweet quote to spill out at the end of the class. I stumbled upon one of Einstein's quotes and then fell into a deep analyzation about it. The end result is a ramble that I want to share with you. Hear my out...... A person experiences life as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of consciousness. Our task must be to free ourselves from this self-imposed prison, and through compassion, to find the reality of Oneness. ~ Albert Einstein I wanted to share this quote with you because I know that the feeling of separation or disconnection from one's surroundings is the primary source of suffering. I want to further the idea to a personal challenge for you... I challenge you to start to view the world through open eyes and see your connection to everyone and everything. For me, the realization that we are all souls stuck in these crazy meat vessels, trying to make our way through life always makes me laugh at the problems and stresses that I create in my head. It's my way of not stressing the small stuff. It's all about the big picture here, right? Fearing that conversation with an authority figure? Look into their eyes when you speak to them and see their soul (rather than the scary physical meat suit) and see how easy it is to talk to them. Scared of a presentation or confronting someone? Again, go for the eyes, look into the soul and see that they are just like you - a soul, wrapped in some flesh, just trying to do their gosh darn best at finding happiness and fulfillment. As this new perspective becomes a habit, your world will progressively become more beautiful. Your relationships with others will blossom. Your productivity, your creativity and your energy level will be enhanced. You will start to control your life instead of it controlling you. Why? Because you are no longer inhibited by fear, by stress, by the negativity that sucks energy away from things that you love and care about. Start living life through open eyes, open hearts and see that we are all one. Namaste and good day!

Your self-talk is critical (in more ways than one); all day long youre telling yourself who you are and what youre capable of and its likely that your actions will reflect what your deep seated belief about yourself is. (See how you create your own reality?!) So when self-defeating thoughts like Im an idiot, Nothing ever works out for me, or Ill never be good enough come up, flag them immediately and recognize that they are not facts, but rather self-flagellation.... Its like youre beating up that vulnerable, hopeful part of yourself and thats just not right. There are enough challenges youll face in your life; you dont need to be your own worst enemy. You need to be your greatest champion. (Ultimately you cant bank on anyone elses belief in you, so you better get on board with creating some solid self-generated esteem.) Your negative self-talk is a big waste of life. Your thoughts of inadequacy will translate into your actions. Next time you are bullying yourself, try this quick exercise: Imagine that youre putting that negative self-talk out in front of you in the form of something small and compact. Then in your minds eye, flick it away from you and watch it diperse and dissolve into thin air. Continue to do this for a couple of weeks and you will train the brain to avoid self-defeating, spirit-crushing thoughts. From there, life becomes a dance.
