Introspective Odyssey

There are moments of healing that don’t look like progress — yet they shape everything.

Small pauses regulate the nervous system.
And what we practice quietly becomes what our children carry forward.

I shared a gentle reflection on this kind of unseen work — the work that unfolds beneath the surface, without effort or urgency.

If you’re craving softness instead of solutions, this is for you.

We lose ourselves quietly… one small self-abandonment at a time.
A skipped breath.
A swallowed need.
A “yes” our body never agreed to.
A moment we rush through instead of returning home to ourselves.

For so many women, especially mothers, the world teaches us to be the backbone of everything — yet never teaches us how to anchor into the self that keeps it all standing.

But here’s the truth:
Your wellbeing isn’t optional. It’s structural.
You are the energetic spine of your home, and when your inner architecture is supported, everyone feels the shift.

In this new blog post, I explore why we lose ourselves, what it costs us, and how we begin the sacred return — breath by breath, pause by pause, anchor by anchor.

If your soul is calling for a deeper exhale… this one is for you.

A gentle yet powerful reflection on how women slowly lose themselves under the weight of daily life — and how returning to the Self becomes an act of spiritual reclamation. This piece explores anchoring, breath, nervous system stability, and the sacred responsibility of coming home to oneself.

🎧 NEW GUIDED MEDITATION 🎧
For the woman who sometimes forgets…
for the healer, the space-holder, the soul on the edge of remembering —
this is your pause.
Your breath.
Your return.

Becoming What You Forgot is a meditation I first created for myself,
and I’m sharing it now for anyone who underestimates their own light.

Let this be a space you return to again and again —
not to fix anything,
but to remember everything.

💫 NEW BLOG POST 💫 (+ Guided Meditation)
There are women who hold space for others so deeply…
they sometimes forget to hold it for themselves.
There are healers, guides, creators —
who underestimate their own light
because it feels so natural, they forget it's rare.

This reflection was born from a single sentence someone dear to me once said:
“I think you underestimate yourself at times.”

And so I wrote.
I returned.
And I created this blog post to remember —
for me, and maybe for you, too.

Wellness isn’t just physical. It’s the harmony of your emotions, your thoughts, your energy, and the way your body communicates its needs. 🌿

I just published a gentle introduction to holistic healing — what it really means, why it matters, and how even small shifts can transform your well-being from the inside out.

If you’re exploring a more natural and integrated path to healing, this may speak to you.

Some sessions change everything.
Not because of what we plan…
but because of what Spirit chooses to reveal.

A new Soul Story is here — written with so much reverence for the unseen layers of healing.

NEW BLOG + VIDEO INTERVIEW
What is happiness… really?

Not the fleeting kind. Not the “if-only” kind. But the kind that remains — even when grief visits, even when everything falls away.

I had the deep honor of sitting down once more with Sue Tobin, a former palliative care nurse, spiritual guide, and radiant soul who knows what it means to pause, to witness, and to be.

Our conversation was soft and fierce, simple and profound — just like Sue.

We spoke about:
✨ The illusion of happiness as something to chase
✨ The sacred wisdom of “the pause”
✨ How grief opens us to joy
✨ Letting go of ego’s grip and returning to presence

If you're walking through a tender season, this may be the pause you didn’t know you needed.

With love,
Ruba

There’s a deep peace that comes when we stop trying to control life
and start remembering who’s really leading it.

When the human surrenders its struggle,
the Soul steps forward — calm, clear, and certain.
Free will becomes freedom. Effort becomes ease.
