“Trust me when I say that one day it’s going to hit you– that you woke up happy, that you’re smiling for no reason, that your hands aren’t shaking anymore. One day, you’re going to remember what it was like to be you a year ago, or three years ago, or even a week ago,Continue reading “December 2024 Favorites”

October 2024 Favorites
By: Gabriela Yareliz October started with a desperate scramble for relief for those who survived Hurricane Helene. I was gathering resources to share. MANNA Food Bank and Samaritan’s Purse were my favorite on-the-ground helpers. People in the affected regions still need our help. We watched the Vice President debate and thought Vance was Jim Halpert-ingContinue reading “October 2024 Favorites”
Not the Same
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, life takes twists and turns that bring back emotions and thoughts that used to follow us around. We are triggered (for lack of a better word). We are like, this again? It happens. We are human. Internal safety has been a concept I have been exploring through my coaching program (God blessContinue reading “Not the Same”
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”
Covered
By: Gabriela Yareliz Every day, we have the opportunity to pray over people and quite literally change the course of their lives. See, prayer gives God and heavenly angels the permission to intervene in lives where maybe that person has closed the door to it (or they aren’t intentionally seeking it). Our requests are honored.Continue reading “Covered”
The Iconoclast Russell Brand
“Isn’t the point of religion for us to access an aspect of ourself that is connected to a force that allows us to discern moral truths that enable us to live well, materially? To have relationships with one another that are guided by principles other than spite, vengeance and vendetta. And ultimately, the most powerfulContinue reading “The Iconoclast Russell Brand”
Winter Lessons
Themes from today: 1. In a nutshell— what Marcus Aurelius said: “Comfort is the worst addiction.” 2. Miracles are everywhere. Truly. 3. “Change is the right danger to choose.” Erwin Raphael McManus 4. If the ending ain’t good, you haven’t reached the end yet. There is so much more than what meets the eye.
Hello Sunshine My Old Friend
By: Gabriela Yareliz The local ABC channel was tracking our sunless day streak in NYC. Ten days without a ray of sunshine. My neighborhood was pure darkness. If I didn’t turn on the light, I couldn’t see what was in front of me. I took a walk yesterday in pouring rain. It looked like lateContinue reading “Hello Sunshine My Old Friend”
January 2024 Favorites
Hello, from the longest deep winter month. It was a productive first month of the year. I learned a lot from my coach and from Roma Abdesselam on caring for oneself. I realized that one of the most important things we decide is what something means to us. It frames everything, including our emotions. IContinue reading “January 2024 Favorites”
Daring to be Alive
By: Gabriela Yareliz There has been so much pain and heaviness this month. I have wanted to come close and write but have sort of been at a loss for words. The attack on Israel on October 7 was horrific to watch. Hostages are still being held and away from their loved ones. I couldContinue reading “Daring to be Alive”
