Yoga With Allaya

Yoga With Allaya An opportunity for beginners and experienced yogis to come together and explore the practice of yoga. Led by Allaya Cooks-Campbell (E-RYT 200), with guests.

A Brooklyn native, Allaya began exploring yoga eleven years ago, expanding on her love of movement, music and theatre. She believes that bodies are made to move and enjoys helping people find greater awareness and appreciation for themselves through an energetic, alignment-based yoga practice.

Today, I rested.
I got my nails done. My brows. Got a facial. Ate a cheeseburger. And read my library book.

I activated this new chapter of my life in love, ease, and joy.

I know the next two years are going to bring some challenges…but I’m ready to be different in the face of them.

I’m no longer hustling through. I’m cultivating ease, self-care, reparenting, and joy as the strategy.

To chapter 36 🥂🌺🎂

“Why a tattoo?”

Because this journey was always etched in my skin.

Now, I get to decide what it looks like.

When things go off-track, I JUMP into action. I work. I hustle. I strategize.

I don’t stop.

In this season of my life, I’m embracing stillness as the strategy. I’m prioritizing my peace.

I am no longer outrunning the peace that’s on the other side of just letting things go.

I have been totally cracked open since I left Vietnam.

These experiences are gorgeous. Luxurious. Transcendent. But they’re also deep. Raw. Vulnerable.

I missed my kids.
I missed my mom.
And I missed the part of myself that didn’t need to fly to the other side of the world to find stillness.

I knew — just three days into the retreat — that something was going to need to shift when I got home.

And I wasn’t wrong. I haven’t flinched from that work, but good God — it has been messy. I’ve cried a LOT.

And through it, even when I wanted to give up, I see glimmers of something even bigger than the grief breaking through.

You don’t need to change your whole life.

You just need to stop, listen for a minute, and let the silence break through the noise.

I’m so happy that I said yes.

There were so many chances — so many reasons — so many WAYS — to say no.

“Not now.”
“It doesn’t make sense.”
“Maybe later.”

But it was all the yeses brought me to this moment — and to this place — right here.

Yes to becoming a yoga teacher.
Yes to creating spaces for Black womxn with .
Yes to the Retreats Academy.
Yes to that first retreat, and to the one after.
Yes to the dream I had that I wasn’t sure would come true.
Yes to creating space to finally hear myself.

And I’m so incredibly grateful.

If you’re wondering whether it’s all adding up — it is.

Wondering if it’s going to turn out? It will.

Wondering if you can do it?

You. Can.

Even when growth feels like frustration.
Even when you question if you’re on the right path.

Keep going. Keep building. Keep creating. Trust yourself.

One day, you’ll look back on this exact moment and realize just how close you were to the life you were dreaming of.

And you’ll be so proud of who you are right now.

Just in case you need a reminder — because I know I do.

Sometimes the hardest part is giving yourself permission to rest. But burnout isn’t a business strategy. Rest is part of the work.

Close the laptop. Step away. Do something just for you.

I promise — the work will still be there when you come back, but you’ll be better & fresher for the break.

🚨 UPDATE: Only 5 Rooms Left!

Remember how I said I just opened registration for my retreat?

Yeah… about that. 👀

Four people just confirmed their spots, which means we’re already halfway full. (Last time, I legit gave up MY room so we could fit people in!)

If you’ve been thinking about coming, now’s the time. Don’t let your last taste of Madeira be through an Instagram post — come experience it for yourself.
