By: Gabriela Yareliz There are weeks where we fall into old patterns of behavior, and we do not take proper care of ourselves. We all have them. This week, while sick no less, it was one of those weeks for me. I was doing my exercise routine but definitely overdid it at work. Falling backContinue reading “Soul Cure”

This Week’s Favorites 10.2.26
The first favorites of October. This morning, I walked a good 15 minutes to a coffee shop that serves turmeric lattes, only to arrive and see it was closed even though according to Google and the sign on the door, they should have been open already for an hour. That was the vibe this week.Continue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.2.26”
Hi! Hi!
From my throne of crumpled tissues. By: Gabriela Yareliz Greetings from the couch, where I sit like a queen surrounded by tissues. It has been a sniffly one.

Be Good to Yourself
By: Gabriela Yareliz [It’s a double post day due to WordPress and train signal sabotage I was unaware of yesterday.] I started the day pressed up again half of NYC in train delays.

A Numb Day
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was a mind-numbing day. My hair that is pulled back into a bun literally hurts. One of those days where you are a captive audience, and you take a total of three steps all day. It was a sedentary, aneurism attorney day. I am clinging to a poll on the train,Continue reading “A Numb Day”
Summer Tweed
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have I gotten weak? I wondered. I watched the woman walk across the train platform in a beige tweed blazer. You have to understand, the day has 100% humidity, and it has rained on and off. It’s not cooling rain; it’s steaming rain. The air is sticky, or as Theo Von says,Continue reading “Summer Tweed”
This Week’s Favorites 08.28.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz Next week, we’ll start September. Everyone keeps asking where summer went. I don’t know. My seasonal transitional cleaning is underway. Yesterday, I wiped down the kitchen cabinets, sorted through cans and refreshed extermination tools. I am satisfied with what I accomplished this week. This week, we lost many people, including the legendaryContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.28.26”

By: Gabriela Yareliz “Did I tell you about the drugs?” the elderly woman under the hair heat lamp asked her stylist after a long period of silence.
