Here, you will find my tips, tricks and science-backed hacks. By: Gabriela Yareliz So, first things first— I am not a medical doctor (though my own research and experiments have done more for me than any doctor ever has), so you should consult with your own doctor before you try anything.

Bloody Hell
By: Gabriela Yareliz I felt a rush go through my entire body, and then, a knot surged in my throat. I was walking to a training at a law firm in The New York Times building (yes, that New York Times), and I was scurrying toward the building from the train. I was excited aboutContinue reading “Bloody Hell”
This Week’s Favs 05.01.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s 2004 in my brain. My birthday is days away, and I am feeling nostalgic. I bought Bubbilicious watermelon gum 🍉. I saw the Laguna Beach reunion happened, and went back to old clips of the show. All the shows I wasn’t allowed to watch are on my mind, ha. Ahh theContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 05.01.26”
Patron Saint of Ill Passengers
By: Gabriela Yareliz When you ride an Uber and you do not feel well, you feel every bump in the road. You feel every pothole and every poor, slapped on repair. In NYC, it can be a harrowing experience. There should be a patron saint of all sick Uber passengers. Praying for them all.

I was walking from an appointment, and the sun was showeringContinue reading “No Small Act”
Musings About Magic Rice, Meetings, Poison Control, and More
By: Gabriela Yareliz I found a magic rice. It cooks in six minutes. I don’t know what that sorcery is. I looked for it again this week like it was a sack of magic legumes and didn’t find it. I am on the hunt for Brad’s Organic Basmati Rice. (After years of feeling pure antipathyContinue reading “Musings About Magic Rice, Meetings, Poison Control, and More”
This Week’s Favs 4.22.26
“Confidence doesn’t come from believing in yourself. It comes from having done the uncomfortable thing enough times that your nervous system stops flagging it as an emergency. Because nothing is actually hard, it’s just unfamiliar.” Layla Shaikley This message: “Maybe because my mind is always overflowing, chaotic, holding a hundred ideas and emotions at once,Continue reading “This Week’s Favs 4.22.26”
Evolving
By: Gabriela Yareliz How silly that we want to return to familiar places yet we ourselves are not the same. Maybe it’s the notion that something we loved is no longer. But I suppose we must give space to everything to grow, evolve and be reborn.
A New Prayer
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have you ever prayed, “God, show me how good life gets”? (Mantra from Alyssa Hermann) I wonder what would happen if we did pray this prayer. Thirty days, and then, we all come back here and share what happened.
