I really hate needles, but I wanted to do something from the heart for Valentines Day & donating blood is literally the best way to do it 😊 Big thanks to @philhsc for the inspiration & @pipacaraujo for being my donor buddy! If you can do it, please donate @redcrossau. They need you! . . . #donateblood #donate #seva #yoga #service #valentines #valentinesday #fromtheheart #love #gratitude #healthy #happy #didnthurtabit #iwasabiggirlanddidntcry

Excited and honoured to speak about the importance of mindfulness in tech at this year’s @pausefest in Melbourne! Catch you on the NGV specialist stage at 10:40am Thursday morning! Kind of amazing to be here exactly 10 years after the Black Saturday bushfires — the very thing that inspired Mindful Under Fire. So much learning and growth from such a huge tragedy. Very grateful to be here. . . . #mindfulness #breathe #takingamoment #blacksaturday #pausefest #pausefest2019 #grateful #travel #meditation #tech #startups #startuplife

This time last week, we found the most incredible swimming pool I’ve ever swum in: Bermagui’s Blue Pool, surrounded by crashing waves, and full of starfish, anemones and little fish who want to do laps with you. Incredible piece of paradise 🌊🌞 . . . #nofilter #bluepool #bermagui #nsw #australia #travel #roadtrip #adventure #adventuretime #nature #straya #friends #swimming #swim #ocean #wildandfree #tbt #throwbackthursday #travelthrowback #travelphotography #summer #sunshine #shinylife #takingamoment #hometowntourist

Can’t believe the ridiculous amazing I got to have with these two crazies this week. From New York to the Hamptons, to SF, Mexico, Bali and now Australia... When you find your people, you gotta hug them tight and have all the shenanigans. Thanks for the adventures @lrrinaldi & @spiegelbrett! Here’s to many more 🙏🏽💕 . . . #travel #australia #summer #beach #friends #nature #adventures #hippies #kombucha #naturalwine #healthy #sydney #melbourne #sapphirecoast #sydneytomelbourne #roadtrip #crazyweirdaccommodation #wherearethepepitas #playthatsongagain #eateverything #dancetonomusic #love

Good Lord. I finally experienced the amazing that is @toppaddock and it really lived up to the hype. Blueberry & Ricotta Hotcake: Seasonal Berries, Toasted Seeds and Grains, Double Cream, Maple Syrup... The Top Paddock: Poached Eggs, Bacon, Pork and Fennel Sausage, Seasonal Vegetables, Pickled Red Onions, Tomatoes, House Made Relish, Toast. Ridiculous coffee. Melbourne, you win brunch again 🥰 . . . #brunch #breakfast #instabreakfast #melbourne #travel #victoria #australia #straya #toppaddock #health #delicious #pancakes #getinmybelly #colourful

I’ve had injuries before, but wrecking my ankle last year really hit me hard. I decompress by being active, getting outside, connecting with nature. Not being able to walk or get around easily has been a massive struggle, and an exercise in patience that I often haven’t had. . I’ve had to reevaluate what makes me healthy, happy, connected. If not adventures, then what? Meditation wasn’t getting me there; nor was pushing my body in other ways; nor saying “this too shall pass”. . Here’s what actually worked: - Letting myself get angry and sad when those emotions came up, rather than pasting over them with a smile. - Moving so, so slowly, and stripping back my schedule, because I was infuriating myself trying to run at my normal speed. - Accepting help from awesome and generous humans who brought food, lugged things for me, checked in and gave well timed hugs. - Turning my body upside town — literally. Concentrating on handstand practice meant light feet and still feeling connected with my body. . After years and years of meditation, I finally saw that meditation itself isn’t the “fix”. Sitting and watching is just that: sitting and watching. What I notice during that session is what there is to deal with, whether that’s upset, frustration, anger or bliss. Not all meditations are going to get me into a shiny state — and it still profoundly helps, no matter what shows up. . It’s still going to be a while before this ankle is better but I’m getting better at taking deep breaths and acknowledging that this is where I’m at right now. Being out on the water this morning was a sweet reminder: some days it will be hard, and sometimes it will be oh, so delicious and beautiful. . . . #breathe #meditate #recovery #injury #rehab #newadventure #nature #outdoors #kayak #SUP #happynewyear #sydney #sydneyharbour #exercise #dawnpatrol #sunrise #caging #meditation #thanksforcomingtomytedtalk 📷: @ballowski

I didn’t make it home to the Bay of Love this season, but wanted y’all to know, I’m thinking of you, and especially Jeff. Sending all my love for a speedy storm cleanup. Doing some dawn dancing here in Sydney in your honour 🙏🏽❤️🌈🌴🌞 . . . #throwback #tbt #throwbackthursday #thailand #travel #islandlife @thesanctuarythailand #nightsateden #bob #bunnies #kpg #kohphangan #yogi #dance #pinkhairdontcare
