Research show that just 20–30 minutes in nature is enough to significantly reduce physiological markers of stress.
-Reduced stress hormones like cortisol
-Drop in systolic and diastolic blood pressure
-Increased natural killer cells = higher immunity.
-Regulated circadian rhythms resulting in better quality sleep
-Reduced cardiovascular risk including reduced risk of heart attack and stroke.

20 second reset ✨
20 seconds of viewing 🌳green space or hearing the sound of running water triggers emotional regulation in the amygdala 🧠 much like meditation or deep breathing.
Save this video for an emotional reset. I will!

Have you ever noticed why you feel more hungry in the days you don’t sleep?
There is science behind that!
Sleep deprivation increases hunger hormones like Ghrelin and causes insulin resistance.

The goal is not only sleep quantity. It sleep quality!

My dad left Iran at 13 for boarding school in England. He eventually made his way to the US collecting degrees from UCLA, Mayo Clinic, Baylor, UC San Diego and on and on…

But today, he shared with me what he considers God’s greatest gifts:

His wife
The California sunshine
A cup of Mc Donald’s coffee.

(yes, he genuinely believes Mc Donald’s coffee is gods gift to this earth🤷🏻‍♀️)

We spend so much of our life chasing more success, more money, more likes, more thinness, more youth, and then someone reminds you that the richest parts of life are not the things we chase after, but the people we love, the beauty we experience, the moments of gratitude we express and yes a $1.19 senior coffee ✨

Our hunger is not only physical- it is emotional, relational and spiritual.

When our hungers are unmet, we become reactive, That reactivity shows up as overeating, over-drinking overworking, people-pleasing.

When nourished, we transform reactivity into clarity, connection, engagement and purpose.

There is nothing sweeter than giving voice to one’s mental musings and to hear its impact on others.
5 years ago this week I self-published, self-promoted, self-launched Hungry for More.
Thousands of copies and hundreds of reviews later I have finally started the compendium journal.
Stay tuned!! Meanwhile you can find the book on Amazon books and Audibles.
And thank you to the people who supported my book and this journey 💕

I just celebrated my 100th class @hot8yoga 🎉 and here is what I learned.
1. I can slow down.
I used to say I hated yoga. Too slow. Too boring. Too still.
Turns out, slowing down was exactly what I needed.
2.You don’t have to be perfect to show up. The old me would never have worked out in public in a sports bra. Now I care more about how I feel than what other people think.
3.You are allowed to take up space. I spent years asking for permission. Now I breathe deeply, stretch big, and trust my voice fully.
4. I can do hard things. Not because they’re easy but because I am always stronger than I think I am. And then a little bit more.
5. There is so much freedom in self-acceptance. You could always be more fit. You could always be less fit. And you are perfect just as you are.

100 classes later, the biggest transformation wasn’t physical.
It was learning to be comfortable in my own skin.
Here’s to more wisdom, more perspective, more ease.
Who knew 50 would be so much better than 40! (and 30 and 20 😉)

The older I get, the more I realize how much of life exists outside our control.

Plans change.
People get sick.
Children grow up.
Opportunities come and go.

Experience has taught me there is so much outside of our control.
What we can control is far smaller and far more powerful:

Our presence.
Our perspective.
Our response.

That shift is powerful medicine for mind and body.

Happy Sunday

Progress is easier than you think.
It looks like showing up.
Trying again.
Choosing care over self-criticism.
Trusting that the small things count because they do!
