What is life but not a dream?

Cuarentena en Hollywood

Un año completo encerrados en 780 sqft

en el lugar más ruidoso de California

Desde mi balcón vi gente correr

gente caer

homeless haciendo refugios

Hip Hop de desayuno

weed de merienda

Marchas exigiendo humanidad

Volví a escribir

Cociné mi primer banana bread

Reí, lloré, bebí, hice el amor

El amor me hizo a mi

Le hablé a mis plantas,

Les conté de mis sueños

las alimenté

me alimentaron

y juntas bailamos

Cuarentena en Hollywood

Hikes a Runyon Canyon

Cocktails de almuerzo, cena y mimosas al despertar

Aeróbicos y meditación antes de trabajar

Música como religión

Libros como salvación

Escritos en vez del psicólogo

Videollamadas que nos unían cuando el mundo nos quería 6 feet apart

Podcasts prometiendo felicidad

Danzas desnudos

susurros rogando esperanza al mar

Amigos que extrañaban abrazar

Queríamos besar

Queríamos reir

Queríamos sentir

Queríamos todo lo que creíamos tener… lo que creíamos ser…

Cuarentena en Hollywood

Pájaros en mi balcón recordándome volar

Helicópteros buscando en las calles a los locos de la ciudad

I saw this posted on facebook by a spiritual and alternative health influencer. It was a real let down.

As both a longtime meditation practitioner and a future doctor, I feel it part of my responsibility to bring these two worlds together in reconciliation. I hope you will indulge me. 😅

The following is my response. Please don’t remove this caption. 🙏🏻

It’s disappointing that such misinformation is circulated as fact. I respect the alternative health community’s effort and willingness to change their lifestyle to better their health. It is remarkable and will undoubtedly benefit their health if done so judiciously. Unfortunately the population at large is not willing to change their lifestyle and those doctors who are still responsible for their care have used medications to improve quality of life and longevity. I have spoken first hand with diabetics and patients with cardiovascular disease who refuse to quit smoking, change their diet, or exercise. And yet we still try to help and heal them regardless. Western medicine is not perfect but it is this kind of sweeping attitude and lack of educated information that I also see in enabling people like Trump. We live in an age in which belief is now taking the place of research, and people choose comfortable sides instead of acknowledging the sometimes uncomfortable complexity in life.

Don’t be self-conscious about dreaming, or about people thinking you’re too idealistic, and not serious enough. Don’t allow your self talk to be judgmental. Look at the world with wide-eyed enthusiasm, believe you are more powerful than the problems that confront you, and dream big.

#Differentiation Bumper-to-bumper brands clamor for our attention. The world is a noisy place filled with a panoply of choice. It is not enough to be different. Brands need to demonstrate their difference.. #BrandIdentity #Millennials #Branding
