Tag #TheAlchemizedLife to show me how you create magic in each and every day!

it was really cool to watch my practice shift in Bali after practicing yoga every morning and night. poses, such as THIS, came easily without any thought - whereas id usually find myself struggling to even invert. I was reminded of the power of practice and how showing up for yourself daily in whatever you do allows it to become easier and easier. I think with technology, we’ve expected everything to come easy and come fast, and my body was a gentle reminder that it’s the slow + steady, the consistency, that really makes the difference. It’s always so fun to watch how yoga reveals lessons that can be applied in so many different forms. what are you working on in your practice lately? #TheAlchemizedLife
going with the idea that nothing can stop me 💥 #thealchemizedlife
my forever partner, my inspiration, my rock, my man. two freakin weeks! how lucky i am to be yours, and you to be mine. id follow you anywhere, bali, paris, greece, australia...okay now im just naming places we should go after the wedding 😉 I LOVE YOU @corey.mccomb thanks for always sitting in the shade when you get tanner than me so i can catch up - a true sign of love. 🥰 #keepingupwiththemccombs #thealchemizedlife
We were not put on this planet to be sad, unhappy, angry or lonely. We were put on this planet to experience deep levels of love, joy, and happiness. NEW SOLO EPISODE IS LIVE // link in bio 😘✨ #TheAlchemizedLife
“leap and the net will appear” has been the go-to mantra for awhile now. for someone that doesn’t trust easily, this hasn’t been a walk in the park. trusting requires so much faith and sometimes i can feel my fear creep in, but i still keep leaping. i keep following the feeling in my gut and the excitement. i follow the flow and notice when it starts feeling forced or like something is off. i know this advice is a little out there, but once you feel it you know. we shouldn’t have to force anything in life and even in times of discomfort or times when our faith and trust is being tested, there is always a lesson to learn, a way to grow. real talk, right now, im having to really face my money fears. planning a wedding has brought it all up to the surface. but i know that if i keep trusting and moving forward and taking action when i can, surrendering when i can’t, im going to reach a new level. im going to heal an even deeper wound. so if you’re being tested, know there is sunshine on the other side. you can handle everything that is thrown at you in life. you are strong. you will get through it just as you have gotten through everything before. I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH. #TheAlchemizedLife #BHLDNBride
Woke up in Uluwatu today feeling immensely grateful for the past week and all the beautiful women I got to share space with at our retreat. My intention leaving the retreat is to live within the joy I am experiencing now and to stay as present as possible rather than always look towards what I can do next. In my meditation these words came to me: ... ✨To welcome joy today, allows for joy tomorrow. To welcome presence today, allows for presence tomorrow.✨ ... I hope it resonates! Happiness comes through being happy now, not putting our happiness on something that may or may not happen in the future. Do what makes you happy TODAY. Live in joy and gratitude and that within itself will bring more of it to you. #TheAlchemizedLife
Okay yogis don’t hate me, but I’ve never been a huge Trevor Hall fan. BUT, this week during class in the midst of a hip opener, “You can’t rush your healing” came on and got me right in the feelings. I began to cry as the words rang so true to my heart. I like to rush. I like to accomplish. I like to get through my limiting beliefs and pain and trauma quickly so I can elevate. But some things aren’t meant to be rushed. Some things need that time, space and presence to fully be integrated. Processed. Healed. So even though I teach women to transmute limiting beliefs, I still have them. I am still working through them. I am still healing. I want you to know that allllll of us are still healing. You and I are no different from each other. My magic is your magic, your pain is my pain. We are all sharing this human experience and there is no need to rush. All is coming to you in its perfect timing. ✨ #TheAlchemizedLife
SWIPE 👉🏼 to see why my skin is THRIVING out in Bali. I swear, if I could live in humid tropical weather year round, I would. I’m a “summertime all the time” type of girl, ya know? I feel like I’m going to take the tropical vibes back home because @lamer The Concentrate is ultra hydrating + one of the only serums I can use on my sensitive skin in all types of weather. Plus, it smells SO yummy! @kellycollinswellness and I have been going wild putting it on this entire retreat 💆🏼‍♀️ #TheAlchemizedLife ... #LaMer #TheConcentrate #sponsored
This time in Bali has been so expansive. It’s shed a light even brighter on where I want to put my focus and has illuminated that everything I *feel* in alignment with is for me, and everything that feels even the slightest bit off is not for me. Sometimes it is scary to trust the intuition so deeply, because it asks us to leap before we see the net, but I know (I KNOW) that it gets a little less scary every time I listen. I released the second solo episode in the March series yesterday and talked all about how integral my intuition has been in this journey. Looking back, even in the times when I felt that “I wasn’t intuitive,” I was still being guided, still being held. Do you let yourself be held? Do you look at the intentions you set and leave air for your intuition to flow through you, showing you the HOW to your WHAT? Link is in bio for the mini episode - I hope you are able to find one nugget in there that inspires you to shine bright. ✨ #TheAlchemizedLife
what if you could look at experiences - bad and good - as something that happens FOR you, not TO you? what if in the moment, instead of it feeling like rejection, it felt like protection? what if you could trust so deeply that even if you don’t understand the why right now, that it will be made clear in retrospect? what would shift for you?
