Give yourself: where to go? You've been through a year of hell, and your mood has gone up and down.

To Mik,Where to begin?You've experienced one hell of a year.The highs have been real high and the lows have been the lowest you've felt yet.

Loosing your dad in your early twenties broke you,Loosing your second dad this year shattered you,and you're still walking through that storm.Be patient with yourself.

Be kind to yourself. Keep doing what you're doing - let yourself cry whenever and wherever.

Allow yourself to smile. Gentle Mikaela,feel whatever it is you need to in each present moment and trust that if anything, this has made you stronger.

This has shown you how precious life is and that pure happiness comes from loving yourself and doing what you're called to do.

Keep practicing and teaching yoga, keep exploring this path and let it lead you to all of your dreams. Keep travelling and seeing the world Keep evolving.

You are capable of anything. You are loved by many and have SO much love to give in return. Remember, say no when you need to.

Don't deplete yourself by trying to put everyone else first. You are a priority. You deserve a life of love,light, excitement, exploration, laughter, and joy.

And guess what? I'm doing the damn thing（yoga）.
