Dear ,

Lately, I’ve been rethinking routines. Not in a burn-it-all-down way, but in a how-can-this-work-better-for-me way.

I led a resilience workshop for our Visual Experience team, teaching micro-practices to support the nervous system—small resets for when the day gets overwhelming (see IG post with pix, videos, attendee feedback).

It’s the same content from my Insight Timer course: 1-5 minute breathwork practices leading up to a 15-minute yoga nidra, and the energy shift in the room was undeniable. It reminded me how much I love this work and that maybe it’s time to start teaching again.

I also started a new strength training program at the gym (eGYM) that feels like training wheels for weight machines—following the push-pull movements on a screen like a karaoke song. It’s gamified just enough to keep me engaged.

Meanwhile, my Barre Definition app workouts started feeling repetitive, so I switched to the FIIT app, which gives me variety across strength, Metcon, barre, and pilates with different instructors. It’s been refreshing!

Then, I took my e-bike out for the first time in months, cycling just 15 minutes out of the city into nature. Birds chirping, river flowing, fresh air—it was the reset I didn’t know I needed.

This got me thinking about how small shifts—whether in workouts, mindfulness, or movement—can create huge ripple effects in energy and well-being.

5 reflections this month that have been helping me:

Whether it’s a training program that removes decision fatigue (eGYM) or a set time for mindfulness breaks, structure isn’t about restriction—it’s about creating ease.

Where can you add structure to make life simpler?

Switching up workouts (FIIT app) has kept things fresh.

Same goes for mindfulness—some days, it’s yoga nidra; other days, just one deep breath.

Different approaches keep things engaging.

A 1-minute breath practice, a 5-minute reset, or a 15-minute yoga nidra can shift everything. I shared these in the workshop, and they made an impact.

Try setting a 1-minute timer to just pause.

A short bike ride reconnected me with nature and myself. Even a 10-minute walk can work wonders.

When’s the last time you let fresh air clear your mind?

What Do You Want to Bring Back? 

I realized I miss teaching and want to start again. What’s something you once loved but stepped away from? Is it time to ease back in?

Would love to hear if any of these resonate! 😊
