Sweet Veganista

Just a few weeks ago, I moved to a new apartment. It is a welcomed, welcomed change. The apartment is big, and bright! There is a beautiful kitchen for me to cook in! And I even have a room to meditate, and do my yoga! Best Part: It is one block from the ocean! My dream come true!

So, I moved out of my cute, trendy neighborhood and borough, where there were plenty of vegan options, and organic markets. Pricey, trendy restaurants and sometimes obnoxious hipsters. And now I am in Rockaway Beach, Queens. Still in NYC, but a totally different environment. I love being by the water, beach, and peace. But I am not by my yoga studio, or gym, or those things that kept my life together. I have been struggling in the past week or two to find balance.

My commute is long, and it is hard for me to still take yoga classes after work, much less teach them on the side. It has been a lot of adjustments.

But, I love it here. And now, my “yoga” will be learning to be compassionate with myself, as I transition into new routines. I will find a place to exercise, and try to push myself harder when I exercise at home, to be a healthy, happy person!
