Start everyday in self-care mode. Some ideas: movement outside, morning surf, intentional & slow breaths, gratitude for 5-10 things in your life, journaling for 20 minutes, walking for 30 minutes. Anything that helps you connect to yourself & the day ahead. It’s from this centered place that we can create epic stuff in this world that are aligned with our goals and our purpose.

The people in your life affect your energy more than you think. Pay close attention to who drains you and who leaves you feeling revitalized.

I’m definitely a beach guy at my heart, but just spent 12 days in the mountains and it’s such a peaceful change of pace. Feeling nourished, grounded, and connected to my daily practices of yoga & meditation. Excited to incorporate more trips when it feels right.

I’ve found a lot of benefit from putting my phone away when eating and even if I’m hungry, doing my best to take intentional, slow bites expressing gratitude for all that had to take place for the food to be right there. So just a reminder to slow down, be thankful, and head back into your day after you eat with more intention and care.

The right person leaves you feeling seen, respected, and at ease, not confused or belittled. Anything less is misalignment.

Exploring new waterfalls are always a treat.

Alignment is a big theme for me recently. Do you feel aligned in your purpose, environment, community, and integrity in the way you show up for others? If not, take some time to reflect and journal about any misalignments that may be going on in your life. Alignment begins the moment you stop ignoring what you know is true.

I’m looking into doing a 10-day silent Vipassana retreat in California this July. No technology. No talking. Just 10 days observing the mind. It’s one of the most powerful and safest ways I’ve heard of to reset, gain clarity, and see yourself honestly. If anyone feels called to join, send me a private message. Cheers.

The most important relationship you’ll have is the one with yourself. Nurture it with everything you have. Speak to yourself with care and respect. Know that if you do your best, that’s enough.

Went to a couple men’s circles this weekend was and was epic to see the guys embrace their warrior side, emotional side, and playful side. I really feel a big part of what’s missing in today’s world is people having a safe space to really let go and be themselves. To ultimately feel a sense of belonging with people who they really resonate with. Community was missing for most of my life and now I’m realizing the power of it when it’s aligned. I’m working on bringing people together in a powerful way to create real, positive change. Don’t be afraid to go to an extra event per week in your local town or internationally. The upside is massive.

Teaching yoga is so fun. I build my classes around helping people cultivate more peace, more mental clarity, and more gratitude for life.

There is deep joy that comes from helping someone move closer to a goal they truly care about. I really believe it’s one of the most meaningful experiences a human can have. Share your gifts with the world.

Nourish your body with a slow, deep breath and feel a wave of gratitude wash over you as feel how lucky you are to be alive today.

People suffer because they live in their thoughts instead of the moment they’re in. Life is happening here, not in the mind.

The universe has a weird way of showing you exactly what you need to see at the right time. Trust in divine timing and have that deep rooted knowing that nothing in life is happening out of order or incorrectly. The past has happened perfectly to get you to where you are now and it’s all about staying present and enjoying this exact moment. Much love.

Dance like nobody is watching. Sing like nobody is listening. Live without fear.

In today’s society, there’s endless news and endless noise. Information is abundant while wisdom is rare. Step outside. Be in nature. Sit in stillness. Spend time with nourishing people. Enjoy the present moment. Peace will return faster than you think.

You have the capacity within you to learn any skill available in today's world. Simply realizing this fact will open up so many possibilities to you. You just need a clear direction, focus, and determination.

Merry Christmas nostr! Sending everyone good vibes & lots of love from the jungle. Pura Vida ☀️🌴
