By: Gabriela Yareliz Very little else has our attention— all eyes on the LA fires. (Unless you are the president, Gavin Newsom and Mayor Bass). I was safe, warm and in my bed, going in and out of consciousness. Every time I was conscious, my mind was racing with prayers. I was filled with gratitudeContinue reading “Santa Ana”

Revelation
By: Gabriela Yareliz “Everything that exists deserves to perish.” Mephistopheles, in Goethe’s Faust The quote above was Karl Marx’s favorite quote. Stay with me. This may feel random. This year, I have begun the year here giving a small window into my thoughts. I think about a lot of random things all the time. IContinue reading “Revelation”
We Are All Fish
By: Gabriela Yareliz “We are all fish swimming in water most of us cannot see, and we need to be more humble, more curious, more aware of all that is around us.” Margi Conklin I loved this quote about life because it’s so true. As we start to understand that there is so little weContinue reading “We Are All Fish”
Feel It
By: Gabriela Yareliz “Learn to welcome all of the emotions.” Dr. Edie Wadsworth I recently heard Dr. Wadsworth say we need to increase our capacity to feel. When we shut down negative emotions, we not only shut down the sad but also the joyful. Increasing our capacity means we feel it all, but it allowsContinue reading “Feel It”
Plan for the End
“I do not plan for the start of the year. I plan for the end.” Lauryn Bosstick I think Lauryn’s approach is the way we should do life. We envision what we want our lives to look like at the end, and then, we work backwards from there. Michael Bosstick, Lauryn’s husband, said on theirContinue reading “Plan for the End”
Affirmation
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s another morning commute gone to bust. We are held in a station where there is a fire, and it’s actively being investigated. They are holding us HERE. Make it make sense. They are literally holding open the doors to “clear” the smoke (aka have us breathe it in). Nothing moves. WeContinue reading “Affirmation”
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”
Morning Trains
By: Gabriela Yareliz Here we are speeding toward the Times Square train station, which is a non-stop circus. Each corner curiously serves a different genre of music. I heard an old black man sing “Stand By Me,” better than the original (as I ran past him); a man singing and dancing salsa with an enviableContinue reading “Morning Trains”
