Why Yoga/ Meditation/ Buddhism?  BRING TO MIND the thing you want more than anything else. Wondering why you don't have it? Why it seems so far away? WELL, Buddhism is brilliant, because it's a handbook of how-tos for life. You name it, they have a list of tools that would help you figure it out. Intermixing that with a skillful pranic push like yoga and a mind strengthening and expanding tool like meditation makes you a well rounded vessel who practices what they preach with morality and joy. When you find out the whole world as you've been experiencing it is a product of your own thoughts, words, and actions, your first response may be a sense of guilt that you're the conductor of your own downfalls.....but then comes a whole world of overwhelming opportunity for you to step into a life of your own perfect vision. You want something? Buddhism will guide you to the path, but only you have the power to turn the key. 

Favorite place on earth: Wherever my Three Jewels NYC sangha members are and no I'm not even trying to be cheesy. I also love the middle of a sweaty dance floor at Nowadays in Ridgewood.

When I’m not at Three Jewels, Im at: It would be so cool if I could say anywhere besides work....but uh....work. Or I guess out dancing with my lovely sangha pals. 

Hidden Talent: Classical ballet

Guilty Pleasure: CHURROS + (ugh) Maggie Rogers is growing on me too, I guess. 

Pet Peeve: not taking responsibility for your actions

Favorite Book:  The Garden by Geshe Michael Roach <3
