Connect with your seed of intuition and:
✅ schedule that therapy session
✅ cancel the unnecessary plans
✅ move your body
✅ meditate
✅ breathe
✅ call a loved one
✅ book that retreat
✅ be relentless in the pursuit of your inner happiness
✅ look at yourself in the mirror and remind that being how LOVED they are exactly as they are

What are you doing this week to hold space for yourself?

Hi you 🤍 Natalie here 🌸

I’m first generation Salvadoreña, daughter to two resilient humans, oldest sister to amazing siblings, wife to a man who has a heart of gold, and dog momma to a what I believe is a realized being reincarnated as a dog 🥹

I started “love and alchemy” as a way to share this newfound passion that is sound healing back in 2018, and I never expected it to become one of the things I’m most passionate about today.

Out of all of the quotes out there, one of the constant ones that inspires me is “life can only be understood backwards” all of the struggles, experiences, expanders, moments of bliss, joy, frustration, grief, in my opinion serve a higher purpose.

I’m a student and teacher of sound, yoga, meditation, Dharma and energy healing.

But most of all, I am a human in progress.
Delighted that you found my corner of the Internet, and hopeful that together, we add a little more peace, joy, mindfulness and love to the world 🤍

but in all seriousness, thank you for being here, and thank you for being you.

“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change” this quote by Wayne Dyer is leading the charge on my muse today: Neuroplasticity.

The fact that our brains have the LIFELONG capacity to change and rewire itself in response to experiences and learning is one of my favorite parts of being a human 🤍

Currently, my favorite ways to engage with creating new neural pathways are:

• learning Chinese
• mantra chanting
• yogic kriyas and technology
• meditation
• sound and frequency meditations
• organic movement as exercise

The goal isn’t to be perfect, the goal is to simply put one foot in front of the other. To catch ourselves in the midst of a negative thought pattern, and in real time choose a new thought. To wake up and meditate instead of scroll.

To be present. To be intentional. To be mindful 🤍

Thanks for capturing this moment .pierce at the Cenote at the 🌿

weekly inspo roundup 💫 how do we define wellbeing?

I had a beautiful conversations with the interior designers of Civana and dear friends, Ben and Anissa of , and we reflected that wellness can be defined as the actions we take to be well (meditate, nourish, move, read, connect with nature & community)

Therefore well being is the state of our entire being. Our emotional, mental, physical and energetic states.

Wellness is such a big word that looks so different to so many people. Some it’s the hour long sacred morning routine that entails the lemon waters, yoga, journaling, etc. for others it’s the precious moments of connection shared over family dinners, or getting lost in reading a novel.

the ways in which we approach wellness are moving targets as we ourselves grow and evolve.

Let’s normalize Allowing ourselves to have grace with how we approach our own wellbeing, and let go of what our wellness practices need to look like, to focus more on how they make us FEEL.

YES OR YES!?

Lmk which post resonates with you most 🤍

“The way we move makes the world move around us” When dropped that line it struck a chord 🤍

In a world where we’re told as women that we’re not _____ enough, to choose to move with self love is an act of courage.

To move is a gift. A privilege.

To move with faith when we’re scared.

To move with confidence when we’re intimidated.

To move with compassion during times of division.

To move with grace during chaos.

To move with gratitude in a world of “never enough”

To move with peace in environments of stress.

To move with childlike wonder in a world where we’re told to “grow up”.

To move with authenticity in a world where we’re told to fit in.

To move is a gift. It’s a privilege.

Whatever moves you, let it.
And watch the way you might just move mountains 🙏🏽

muses 🐉

I’m currently in Miami spending time with family missing my instruments a little extra today, and feeling inspired by my favorite muse: hope 💫

SAVE THIS ONE: Dharma work is a lifetime’s work 🌀

from the perspective of soul’s purpose and how we are of service to the whole, studying Dharma has been one of the most fulfilling threads woven into the tapestry of my life 📿

If you’re curious about exploring what Dharma means to you, some practical ways to dive deeper are journaling to reflect on your passions, highest excitements, and values. (Scroll to last slides)

Save this for your next journaling session and let me know if you find them useful 🤍

at a loss for words as I reflect on the past week at Palmaïa with the Wanderlust community 🤍

To have taught, practiced, and transformed alongside incredible humans and teachers, in one of the most powerful vortexes I’ve been on in the Yucatán peninsula was a true honor and gift 🙏🏽

I’m currently at the airport en route to Oaxaca, recognizing that I’ll need at least a week to fully integrate it all.

Not to mention sort through the abundant memories captured through photo and video I captured while managing the Wanderlust Instagram while I was there 😅

More to come but for now, thank you to the land, the community, my teachers whose shoulders I stand on, the Wanderlust team for inviting me to be a part of this, my supportive husband who carried my bowls everywhere, and my sis .pierce for capturing this moment in one of the cenotes 🙏🏽
