The Essence of Yoga


A 10-Part Journey to Transform Body, Mind, Spirit and Soul

Welcome to The Essence of Yoga, a 10-part series exploring yoga for body, mind, spirit and soul. In this journey, you’ll discover how yoga improves sleep, reduces stress, balances energy, and supports your everyday lifestyle — even if you’re a complete beginner.

Yoga is so much more than stretching or physical postures. It is a complete path of self-discovery, inner peace, and balance — a practice that strengthens the body, calms the mind, and nourishes the spirit. Whether you are a complete beginner or someone who wants to deepen your practice, this series will guide you step by step through yoga’s practical benefits and spiritual wisdom.


Why This Yoga Series?

In our fast-paced world, it’s easy to lose touch with ourselves. Stress, screens, and constant busyness can leave us drained and disconnected. This series was created to remind us that yoga is not just about exercise — it’s about transformation.

We’ll explore how yoga brings strength, clarity, focus, and stillness into everyday life. With simple practices and deep insights, you’ll learn how to use yoga as a tool for physical health, emotional balance, and spiritual connection.


Here’s what you can look forward to in The Essence of Yoga:

Part 1: What Is Yoga, Really?

We begin by uncovering the deeper meaning of yoga — beyond flexibility — and why this ancient practice matters more than ever in today’s modern world.

Part 2: Yoga for the Body

Discover how yoga improves posture, builds strength, increases flexibility, and even supports recovery from pain or injury.

Part 3: Yoga for the Mind

Learn how yoga calms stress, reduces anxiety, improves focus, and brings lasting inner peace into your daily routine.

Part 4: Yoga for the Spirit

Yoga is also a spiritual journey — a way to connect with your higher self, your purpose, and the present moment.

Part 5: The Science of Yoga

We’ll explore fascinating research on how yoga supports brain health, balances hormones, strengthens the nervous system, and boosts immunity.

Part 6: The 8 Limbs of Yoga

Step into the full yogic path — including ethics, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, and stillness — not just postures.

Part 7: Yoga for Sleep & Relaxation

Struggle with rest? This episode will guide you through gentle yoga poses, calming breathwork, and Yoga Nidra to help you relax and sleep deeply.

Part 8: Yoga and the Chakras

Explore the body’s energy centers and how yoga helps restore balance to your emotions, mind, and overall wellbeing.

Part 9: Yoga as a Lifestyle

Learn how yoga extends beyond the mat — shaping how you eat, how you communicate, and how you live with more awareness and kindness.

Part 10: Starting Your Yoga Journey

Finally, you’ll receive clear, encouraging guidance on how to begin — or restart — your yoga practice in a way that feels sustainable, gentle, and personal.

This series is your chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with your true self. Yoga is not about perfection; it’s about presence, compassion, and balance.

Heal Your Soul – Become a Goddess

From Toxic Love to Goddesshodd

“A goddess does not chase. She stands firm in her power, knowing that what is meant for her will never require her to lose herself. You are that goddess. Step into your power and never settle for less than the divine love and respect that are your birthright.”

When a man is unclear in his commitment to a woman, it often means he is still playing around. He might give mixed signals, promising love and loyalty one day, only to disappear emotionally the next. This inconsistency is not about confusion – it’s about keeping options open while enjoying the comfort of your presence. But the truth is, a woman often struggles to see this for what it is. She holds on to hope, believing that someday he will realise her worth and change.

But, dear woman, let me tell you – someday rarely comes, and you cannot spend your life waiting for a man to step up.

You are not a project for someone to decide whether they are ready to invest in. You are not a placeholder for someone to figure out their priorities. You are a goddess, deserving of unwavering love and respect. A man who is truly ready for you will not make you question where you stand. His actions will match his words, and his commitment will be clear as day. Anything less than that is not your destiny – it’s a distraction from the life you are meant to live.

When you allow yourself to wait for someone who is unsure, you compromise your own worth. You put their indecisiveness above your peace, and that is never a fair trade. Remember, love does not thrive in uncertainty. It grows in security, respect, and mutual effort. A man who values you will not hesitate to choose you, to honour you, and to build a future with you. Anything less is not love – it’s a game, and you are far too valuable to play along.

The challenge for many women is that they confuse potential with reality. They see the good in a man and believe it will eventually surface fully. But potential is not enough. What you deserve is a partner who shows up for you every single day, not one who keeps you guessing or makes you doubt your place in their life. A man who loves you will make sure you know, not by words alone but through consistent actions.

Do not allow your hope to blind you to the truth. Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is to walk away from someone you love, but it is also the most empowering. When you choose yourself, you set a standard for how others should treat you. You teach the world that you will not settle for anything less than what you truly deserve. That choice is an act of love – this is time for yourself.

To the women reading this: you are not someone’s option. You are not someone’s maybe. You are a woman of infinite value, and the right man will recognise that without hesitation. The one who is meant for you will not make you wait in confusion. He will come into your life with clarity, with purpose, and with the willingness to commit fully to you.

Stop shrinking yourself to fit into someone’s life. Stop dimming your light in the hope that they will finally see you. The right person will see you, as you are, and love every bit of it. They will not ask you to wait, to prove your worth, or to fight for their attention. They will show up, every single time, because they know what they have in you.

You are powerful beyond measure. You carry the strength of generations within you. You are not here to beg for love or to settle for crumbs of affection. You are here to live a life of purpose, surrounded by those who honour and cherish you. Do not let anyone convince you otherwise.

So, dear woman, know your worth. Love yourself fiercely and unapologetically. Walk away from anything that makes you feel less than whole. The universe is waiting to align you with the love and life you deserve, but first, you must choose yourself. Stop waiting for “one day.” Create your own day, your own happiness, and your own destiny.

A goddess does not chase. She stands firm in her power, knowing that what is meant for her will never require her to lose herself. You are that goddess. Step into your power and never settle for less than the divine love and respect that are your birthright. Truth is at some point you’ll realise that you’ve done too much for someone that the next possible step to do is to leave them alone & walk away. It’s not like you’re giving up but you have to draw the line from determination & desperation, what’s yours will be yours & what’s not yours will never be no matter how much love, care, help and attention you give.

Much love,

Gabriela
