The day of my book launch I also got a call from my boss saying that I was passed over for promotion a second time. The next day, my book made the Amazon bestseller list at number 2, just below The Autobiography of a Yogi, one of the seminal books on yoga in the west.

​
You might think, well, if they don’t appreciate you, make money from your book launch and just walk away. But, the book was written as a labor of love to benefit the yoga therapy profession. I will not receive any of the proceeds and I don’t necessarily need the proceeds. I’m also in a contract, so cannot easily walk away from my job.

​
On the same day, I also had a dear friend reach out to me about her special needs son having another episode. She was beyond frustrated that her state completely lacks pediatric psychiatric services. As a PA, I reached out to my medical colleagues in her state. They said the best thing she could do is move. I was disappointed. I wished I could do more.

​

These are problems on the micro level. The cognitive load of trying to keep households running, work thriving, marriages working, and friendships growing persist. It doesn’t even scratch surface of how we feel when our national and international landscapes are shifting under our feet.

​

Our lives can be an excruciatingly beautiful mess. The balance feels impossible, while imbalance feels unbearable. Wise souls know that this too shall pass and many emotions are only momentary, they’re like the weather.

​

And yet, we still have goals and aspirations. We want to leave the world better than how we found it. We want to leave a legacy worth remembering. As we try to push through and for many of us, the answer IS just pushing through.
​

What if instead of just pushing through you spend 5 minutes feeling your body? Could you allow slow rhythmic movements to shift your energy? Allow the metabolic processes in every cell take a bite out the pain to help you digest it.

​

Could you use the slow rhythmic movements to help you to sit still for 3 minutes and watch your thoughts with non-judgmental awareness and allow the still small voice a chance to speak?

​

Could you use the 5 minutes of movement and 3 minutes of meditation to facilitate 5 minutes of reflection to help you understand your thoughts, validates your feelings and reframes the situation in a way that allows you to step into your power?

​

Could you really shift your thoughts and energy in 13 minutes? If you’re in a safe environment, sure. Digest it in increments. Cry if you need to. Keep gently moving, sitting and writing until enough of it is out and you can do the next thing.

I’m teaching these tools in my 13 Minutes to Better Course. It’s 8 weeks that teach you how to clearly, quickly and respectfully tap into your body wisdom, quiet your mind and leverage your spirit’s insight for forward progress.

​

In this cohort, I’m looking to help 9 women who are smart, ambitious and want to do more to leave a legacy. Women who want to unload the cognitive burden of anticipating everyone else’s needs and focus on understanding what you needs. Tap into your intuition by accessing it in your body. Channel that energy into something more. Plan your work with ease and work your plan. Step into the most powerful and focused version of you.

The world can be deafening. We must learn to tap into our power every day. The price of letting the noise distract us from our vision is truly devastating. The world will never have it.
