It is always time for yoga!

In my book The Tea House, I share the special connection I have developed with the small animals that live around my home in Woodstock, Canada. Just like us, they face the daily challenge of survival—especially during the long, harsh Canadian winter.

Today, they received a very special gift from Augie: a little house, built with his own hands, that will provide both shelter and a safe place to find food.

More and more, I realize how much easier it is to invest in our dreams when we walk beside someone who believes in us, supports us, and loves us. ❤️

A new year is almost here, and I know a lot of us are feeling that urge for change… or at least for things to feel lighter.

During my own search for peace, I came across a simple idea that really stuck with me: Let them.

If someone wants to ignore you, let them.
If someone wants to leave, let them.
If someone doesn’t see your value, let them.

This mindset helped me realize that some people and situations have to go so I can spend my energy on the ones that are still part of my growth.

A long time ago, a friend told me that some people come into our lives just long enough to teach us something—and then they leave. I didn’t like that idea back then. Letting go was hard.

But I’ve learned that this is part of life… and honestly, it saves us from a lot of disappointment.

So as the new year approaches, here’s what I’m choosing to let go of:
• The need to change anyone’s mind
• Overworking to prove my worth
• Thinking I have to do everything alone

If you’re feeling tired or stuck right now, maybe it’s not because you’re doing something wrong.
Maybe it’s because you’re holding onto something you don’t need anymore.

So ask yourself:
What are you ready to let go of so you can walk into 2026 feeling lighter?

You don’t need all the answers today.
Just start the list. ✨

It is time to walking towards more peace and calm rather than provocation. One way to get there is to connect with nature by going outside and enjoy the day.

É hora de caminhar em direção a mais paz e calma ao invés de provocação. Uma maneira de chegar lá é se conectar com a natureza saindo e aproveitando o dia.

Getting contact with nature can bring you balance. Just go for a walking or a big hiking in one of many beautiful trails in Canada.
