Paola is a wellness coach, mother of two, and Vedic meditator based in NYC. Read on to learn how she balances work and self-care.
- Favorite wellness beverage? My homemade morning green juice: celery, rainbow chard, Granny Smith apple, ginger and lime.
- Favorite place in NYC? Central park, there’s a corner for everyone.
- Describe your work in one sentence. I teach people how to turn daily moments of self-care into healing.
- Describe your personal journey over the past few years in once sentence. I feel reborn, on a journey of rediscovering my true SELF.
- You love working with essential oils. Can you tell us something about them that most people don’t know? They can support you in re-wiring thought patterns. Essential oils are volatile compounds that travel up your nose and directly into your municipal brain, where memories are created. Pretty cool, right?
- What is something you do daily to care for yourself? I oil my skin using a blend I created, which is infused with heart-opening and uplifting essential oils. Oiling my skin is a non-negotiable ritual that supports me in starting my day on a positive note (and with a glow!).
- How do you stay productive and efficient with your work flow? I’ve become very organized and calendar everything, including my self-care — I am just as important as anyone else I make a commitment to.
- How has meditation impacted your life? It’s my other non-negotiable self-care ritual and has truly changed my life. It grounds me, reminds me to breathe and supports me in having a clear outlook on life. I’m forever grateful to have learned the Vedic Meditation technique.
Thanks for giving us a peek into your world, Paola!
