I finally did it...
Departing my work to travel the world
Hi friend,
Happy 2019! I hope you had a beautiful time over the holidays.
I'd like to welcome you to my very first newsletter! Each week, I'm going to share with you updates on my mindfulness journey, any new content I publish, and things I discover.
This week, I announced my mindfulness journey for 2019. After a year of recovery from my sickness in 2017, I am now ready to Eat, Pray, Love around the world... millenial style (vlog, blog, and all that jazz)
Stay tuned for more updates. I leave officially for my trip in a few weeks. In the meantime, I am spending some quality time with my family here in Los Angeles before I take off.
A Book I'm Re-Reading
Mark Manson's book came up in a conversation with my friend a week ago and I decided to re-upload to my kindle for a refresher. Easy, quick read for insight on life, stoicism, personal growth and responsibility. His blog and newsletter are few of my must-reads whenever new content is published.
Check out The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*CK by Mark Manson
My favorite post in his blog: 5 Principles on Making Better Life Decisions (hint: there is no such thing as a bad decision)
Speaking of Decisions... My 2019 Resolution
When I make resolutions, they are extremely simple - a single word or phrase. The simplicity & focus helps to keep it top-of-mind throughout the year.
2018 was "Letting Go".
2019 is Mindfulness. Becoming more mindful in my everyday and in my relationships with everyone.
Daily meditation has been a huge stepping stone for me and shared some of my insights from a year on Headspace on Medium.
What's your resolution?
Songs I'm Enjoying
I started sharing weekly favorite songs on my Instagram stories and my followers seem to love them. Check out the latest with some slow & steady beats
As always, thanks for reading!
