✨𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻—𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗻𝗲.

Walking through my old stomping grounds in Boston and NYC, I had a humbling realization: the things we attach our identity to (my college, my apartment, my city, my job) are fleeting. These places move on without us.

👉🏼𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘄𝗲 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸.

Things I took for granted in NYC that I now deeply appreciate:
🥯 That first bite of a bagel or pizza slice
🚇 Not needing a car thanks to the subway
👀 People watching
🚶🏽‍♀️ Walking 24,000 steps without even noticing
⚡ The constant energy of the city

♥️But my favorite part? The diversity. The languages, the cuisines, the cultures—it shaped me into someone who values different perspectives. Growth happens when we step outside our bubble.

✨Back at Roosevelt Hospital in NYC (now Mt. Sinai West)—not just where I worked as a Physical Therapist, but where I lived in the staff housing across the street. Walking those halls again, running into old coworkers, and sharing it with my family stirred something deep.

💕So thankful for my amazing former coworkers—and for all those who are always supporting others. This place helped shape the work I do now: helping professionals reset and recharge in real time.

So surreal to be back at my college after 25 years!!!❤️ Feels like another lifetime.

✨Boston University is where it all began—my path as a Physical Therapist, which eventually expanded into yoga, meditation, nutrition, and hypnosis. All of that came together to shape the work I do now with Performance & Resilience Tactics—simple, powerful nervous system tools for people who are always on.

✨It’s been a winding path, but this visit reminded me: the roots run deep. And the work I do now is still grounded in that same mission—helping people feel and perform their best.

I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to go to college in Boston! 😍 I ran into a kid who graduated in 2024 and told me he feels old. 😂

If it feels like everything’s coming at you all at once, take a moment to pause.

👉🏼Notice if there’s any tension in your body right now. Take 30 seconds to soften it.

👉🏼Muscle tension isn’t just from physical causes like repetitive movements or poor posture. It’s often your nervous system stuck in high gear—on alert, bracing for what’s next. Shoulders rise, jaws clench, bellies tighten.

👉🏼Releasing this tension helps you downshift into your optimal zone—where calm, clarity, and better performance naturally return.

✨ The more efficient we get at noticing our body’s signals of muscle tension—and softening them—the more efficient we become at operating from our best: mentally, physically, and emotionally.

Feeling off—but trying to shove it down?

😤 Snapping at small things?
😶‍🌫️ Foggy but still pushing through?
😩 Tense all the time, even when things seem "fine"?

You’re not broken—your system is speaking.

But most of us never learned to read the signs. We override instead of regulate.

👉 That’s what Performance & Resilience Tactics (PRT) is about.

✔️It starts with one essential skill: Spot it to shift it.
⚙️ Know what gear you’re in—high, low, or optimal.
⚙️ Validate what’s showing up (not shove it down).
⚙️ Then apply quick, science-backed tools to return to your optimal zone—where clarity, performance, and resilience live.

👉🏼Because what you don’t spot… you can’t shift.
👉🏼And what you don’t shift... starts to run the show.

It’s about understanding your internal system—how your brain and body respond under pressure—and knowing how to reset it.

✨Because if you find yourself running on fumes, snapping at small things, struggling with focus, or feeling like your edge is slipping—your system may be stuck in high gear.

In any high-performance profession, your training and expertise are essential.
But there’s a second piece—just as important—if you’re talking about long-term performance and well-being:
✔️Knowing how your system works.
✔️Then knowing how to shift it—so you can stay focused, clear, and resilient over time.

👉🏼That’s where Performance & Resilience Tactics come in. I teach science-backed, real-time tools to help you regulate your nervous system and perform at your best—even when stress runs high.

I’ve seen this firsthand across healthcare professions—and I continue to see it in so many other helping roles.
✔️Operating in high gear becomes the norm.
✔️Recovery gets delayed.
And over time, the ability to show up fully—for patients, students, communities, or peers—starts to fade.

That’s why I love sharing Performance & Resilience Tactics—practical, science-backed mind-body tools that help people stay in their optimal zone, even in high-stress environments.

✨Because when those who serve can better regulate themselves, it creates a ripple effect—through their teams, their families, and the communities they serve.

After years of working with high-pressure professionals, I saw the same pattern over and over again:
✅ Highly skilled
✅ Deeply committed
❗ But always “on”… and burning out.

👉🏼That’s why I created 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 & 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 (PRT).

PRT is a system of 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲, 𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱-𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 designed to help people:
* Downshift from chronic activation
* Regulate their nervous system under pressure
* And return to their 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗱𝘁𝗵—clear, steady, and focused
These are 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯, not just off the clock. Because 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸—𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆.

I believe nervous system education should be as fundamental as physical training or professional skills—especially in fields where people put their wellbeing on the line to serve others.

That’s what Performance & Resilience Tactics is about.
🧠 It’s not woo.
It’s neuroscience.
And it works.

This Memorial Day weekend, I took a moment to pause.
✨To reflect.
✨To breathe.
✨To soak in music, sunshine, and space to simply be.

Today especially, I honor those who gave everything in service—and I hold space for anyone carrying invisible weight through their own form of showing up every day.

🌿If you’re someone who’s always “on,” I hope you find a moment to check in with your system.
✔️Sometimes all it takes is a song, a breath, and a little space to feel like yourself again.

🇺🇸 Remembering those who served—and those who continue to serve in all the ways that matter.

✨I invited students to pause for a moment of gratitude—and the response was overwhelming (we ran out of paper!). In exchange for a piece of candy, they each wrote one thing they were grateful for and added it to our gratitude jar.

✨On our table, there was a poster of the 3 Nervous System Zones to spread awareness, and each student received a QR code linking to my 1-minute meditation they could use to relax and recharge the next time that they felt stressed.

💫Big thanks to Dr. Namrata Patyal for helping me with this meaningful endeavor with her care and presence.

✨Someone is not more advanced at yoga just based on how difficult a pose they can do.

✨Yoga is not about painting a pretty picture to post on social media (like this one 😁). It is something we can practice in the midst of struggles and the ugliness of life.

✨My yoga practice has looked different over the years. There have times where I was limited in my ability to practice the physical poses of yoga, but was practicing the other aspects of yoga that are just as (if not more) important, such as:
👉🏼breathwork
👉🏼meditation
👉🏼discipline
👉🏼self-study
👉🏼cultivating contentment despite the circumstances
👉🏼surrender to bigger picture perspectives
