September 2024 Favorites

By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s officially autumn!!! (Yes, that deserves three exclamation points). Man, I love this season. The mornings are dark and glowy. It’s raining as I type this, and I am playing an “Autumn Jazz” playlist. The diffuser is going with all the yummy oils. The only word that comes to mind is “glow.”Continue reading “September 2024 Favorites”

What’s Old Is New…

By: Gabriela Yareliz Have you ever wondered what the truth is? Have you ever wanted to go back to high school? As we continue to educate ourselves in all things wellness, it can be frustrating. The amount of contradictory information you can find is overwhelming. I run little experiments on myself for three months atContinue reading “What’s Old Is New…”

August 2024 Favorites

Hello friends, August rushed off. What does this mean? The month was a bit of a blur. It was filled with busy stuff at work, back-to-school, smoothies, sweaty walks around Central Park where I was offered a carriage ride almost every day, a tow truck ride with a really nice guy who can back upContinue reading “August 2024 Favorites”

Unity

RFK Jr. addressed the nation today. Media is already not reporting accurately, so please watch it for yourself here on Rumble. I watched live, and some of the headlines are laughable. Other networks literally muted him as he spoke about censorship. You can’t make this up. It was a moving speech. An important speech. AsContinue reading “Unity”

The Power of ‘No’

By: Gabriela Yareliz Do you have any idea how many times I have said ‘no’? When people and circumstances said I was stuck— no. When some encouraged me to not pursue higher education— no. When they told me I wasn’t qualified— no. When people tried to manipulate me by calling me a ‘bad (fill inContinue reading “The Power of ‘No’”

July 2024 Favorites

Hello! Is it just me, or did July just FLY by? Suddenly, one Friday I found out it was time for Summer Stroll (think of Summer Stroll as a giant block party); My favorite vendor on the commercial avenue told me. The shock set in. Summer Stroll means summer is almost over, and my leaseContinue reading “July 2024 Favorites”

Peace is the Key

By: Gabriela Yareliz As I’ve expanded my learning in biohacking and self-experimentation for health, one thing has become a highlight. I have realized that for many health goals, whether it is lowering glucose, lowering stress, burning fat and/or balancing hormones, most of these things start with a question– “How can I make my body feelContinue reading “Peace is the Key”

June 2024 Favorites

Hello friends, What a month. We lived intensely in June, and it flew by. This month started with a popping party in Staten Island. It was a blast. I met the incredible Tina Forte and Scott Lobaido out there. I got nostalgic and remembered Jell-o, and there were like thirty photos of Jell-o on myContinue reading “June 2024 Favorites”

The Athletes

By: Gabriela Yareliz I got dark circles under my eyes from all these hockey playoff games. I have loved every minute of it. It has been so much fun watching the NY Rangers. They made it to the Eastern Conference Finals, and their season ended when they were defeated by the incredible Florida Panthers. IContinue reading “The Athletes”
