mood: slowing down and sipping matcha

a slow morning spent easing into the day at Chafinity, where everything feels intentional, minimal, and calm. the kind of place that naturally invites you to pause, stay a little longer, and let time soften around the edges.

this was one of those effortless outfit days where comfort met quiet polish. i wore a long white collared top that doubles as a swim cover-up styled like a dress, paired with simple sandals, hair pulled up, and light tinted sunglasses. easy, breathable, and perfect for a coastal coffee and matcha moment.

it’s giving slow living energy, coastal café mornings, and choosing softness in how you move through the day. nothing rushed, nothing overthought, just matcha in hand and a calm pace that lingers.

outfit idea for café days: oversized collared cover-up dress, minimal sandals, clean accessories, hair up for an effortless finish, soft tinted shades for that relaxed coastal feel

currently in my sound bowl era

there’s something about integrating sound healing into practice that shifts the entire atmosphere of a class. the space feels slower, more intentional, and deeply grounded. using a singing bowl after movement or at the end of savasana creates a moment where everything softens at once. breath, thoughts, and energy all settle into the same rhythm.

this has become a grounding part of my teaching rhythm lately, especially when I’m guiding students through mindful movement and nervous system reset work. the vibration of the bowl doesn’t just end class, it lingers in the room in a way that feels almost like an exhale you can hear.

it’s less about doing and more about allowing. allowing stillness to land. allowing the body to absorb the practice. allowing students to transition back into their day feeling more connected and regulated.

for fellow yoga teachers or wellness lovers, sound healing can be such a simple but powerful addition to your space. even one bowl at the end of practice can completely change the energy of the room.

set up yoga class with me

setting the tone before students arrive is one of my favorite parts of teaching. a little palo santo, soft lighting, and a quiet moment to ground the space completely shifts the energy of the room.

before the movement begins, there is intention. before the class flows, there is stillness. creating the environment is part of the practice just as much as the sequencing itself.

this is your reminder that the space you step into can support the way you feel, breathe, and move.

What I wore to the concert 🤍 Denim cowboy boots, a black mini dress, flowy swim cover up, and the unexpected favorite part of the look… turning the cover up into a head wrap once the night got cold. It added the perfect mix of warmth, texture, and fun movement while making the whole outfit feel even more styled together. Finished it off with a small loop clutch for the perfect concert night look.

where are my maxxinistas? 🙋‍♀️✨

today’s TJ Maxx finds did not disappoint. I spotted so many cute sunglasses, trendy jewelry pieces, and affordable fashion accessories that look way more expensive than they are. Finding designer-inspired style for less is one of my favorite reasons to shop TJ Maxx.

From statement sunglasses to everyday jewelry and unexpected fashion finds, this haul felt like a win. Who else loves hunting for hidden gems at TJ Maxx?

One of my favorite everyday outfit formulas lately. A classic white tee with a skirt makes running errands feel a little more elevated while still being comfortable. Perfect for grocery runs, coffee stops, shopping days, or anytime you want to feel casual, comfy, and still put together. Simple staples that always work together and never go out of style.

My favorite little travel setup lately. Found this leopard weekender in the kids section at Gap and it’s honestly the perfect size for a quick overnight or day trip. I love that the print feels subtle and not overly leopard while still adding something fun to a simple travel look.

Paired it with my matching denim-look cotton athleisure set that feels comfortable for long travel days but still looks put together. These are the pieces I keep reaching for when I want easy, functional, and cute.

My go-to shoes for Barry’s lately… the Nike V2K. They’re lightweight enough for tread, supportive for floor work, and somehow still make my workout outfit feel fun and styled. I love a sneaker that can handle sprints, strength, and still look cute walking in with my post-class coffee. The perfect mix of sporty and retro.

Yoga sequencing will forever live better in a notebook for me than in my phone notes. Writing out class themes, transitions, playlists, and little reminders by hand helps everything stick in my head so much more deeply. I also love using notebooks with positive affirmations on the cover because it feels like part of the practice too… grounding, inspiring, and intentional before class even begins. One of my favorite rituals as a teacher.

The Sound Healing Ritual I Always Use Before Savasana

One thing I’ve started doing before savasana is playing a singing bowl while everyone settles in. It creates such a calming shift in the room and honestly helps ground me too before the final rest. My students always mention how much they love it after class and now it’s become one of my favorite rituals to share during my yoga classes.

Moxe Dream Shower Spray is one of those scents I didn’t expect to fall in love with

I first experienced it in a Restore class when the teacher sprayed it before we started. The entire room shifted instantly. It felt softer, calmer, and more grounded. After class I had to ask what the scent was because I couldn’t stop thinking about how fresh and dreamy it felt.

It’s light, clean, and calming in the best way. The kind of scent that helps you slow down and fully reset.

I’ve been using it at home now, and I’m planning to bring it into my own yoga and restorative classes too because it creates such a beautiful atmosphere without doing too much.

One Bag Travel Days

There is something I really love about only traveling with a single carry on. Sometimes I still use a roller, but when I can make it work with just one bag, everything feels easier.

No waiting at baggage claim. No dragging a suitcase through streets or hotels. No overpacking “just in case” items that never get used. It feels lighter in every way, not just physically but mentally too.

What I notice when I stick to a carry on only:

* Moving through airports feels faster and more relaxed
* I naturally pack more intentionally and only what I actually wear
* Transitions between places feel smoother and less stressful
* Everything I need stays close and organized without extra baggage

I usually stick to versatile pieces that mix and match easily, soft layers, and a simple shoe rotation. It makes getting dressed on the road feel effortless instead of like a decision overload moment.

It’s not about packing less for the sake of it. It’s more about creating space to move through travel with ease.

Travel Days Favorite: Platform Sneakers That Do It All

These are the travel shoes I keep reaching for every single time I’m packing. I’ve mentioned them before, but they really deserve a permanent spot in the lineup because they just work with everything.

They give that perfect mix of comfort and a little lift, which makes such a difference on long travel days when you still want to feel put together without trying too hard.

What I love about them:

* Platform base for a subtle lift without sacrificing comfort
* Easy to walk in all day, even through airports and long city days
* Clean, versatile look that goes with athleisure, denim, dresses, and sets
* Feels supportive without looking bulky or overly sporty

I usually style them with my go to travel set or an easy layered outfit like a fitted tank, lightweight jacket, and relaxed pants. They pull everything together in that effortless way that still feels intentional.

If you’re building a travel shoe rotation, this is one of those pairs that quietly ends up being the most worn.

Travel outfit I always reach for when I want to feel comfortable but still pulled together.

This is my go-to soft denim-look athleisure set. It has that relaxed, washed denim feel visually, but it is actually a lightweight, soft knit that moves with you and feels easy all day. It is one of those sets that looks styled without any effort.

I like layering a black onesie underneath to keep everything feeling sleek and streamlined. It adds structure under the relaxed set and makes the whole look feel intentional from airport to arrival.

Comfort first, but still put together in that quiet way that works anywhere.

Why I changed my mind about crew socks… I used to avoid them because I thought they made my legs look shorter and cut off my silhouette. But now I love how they add dimension, layering, and that effortless sporty-chic look to an outfit. The “cut off” effect actually became part of the style. Paired with platform sneakers, leggings, biker shorts, or an oversized sweatshirt, crew socks make even simple workout outfits feel more elevated and intentional. One small styling detail completely changed the vibe of my athleisure looks.

How I Dress Up My Yoga + Pilates Outfits

My favorite way to elevate a yoga or Pilates look is adding a long sleeve collared top over my workout set. It instantly makes activewear feel more polished and put together before and after class while still staying comfortable. I’ll layer it over a matching set with sneakers, crew socks, and a tote for an effortless chic look. Of course it comes off once class starts, but walking into class feeling styled makes the whole outfit feel different.
