La Brega Wellness

Nothing like ending the day with an afternoon walk. It’s a full family event bringing the dog and my nene lindo. I’m grateful to move my body which allows me to look let go of the stress of the day. Even though it just for 10 or 15 minutes. My day feels like it’s closed out and I’ve been able to shift physically and mentally into our evening routine.

How have you moved your body to shift your day your perspective?

As we are going into the end of the year, how are you finding time for play? ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The hustle game will always be there but our own inner peace and life is fleeting.

How are you finding time to play and enjoy the holiday season?

Mira I said it... ✨ you are light and bring so much to this world. ✨​​​​​​​​​Don't let others tell you different.​​​​​​​​​
As a Latina, I would diminish myself in the office. Try to speak "professional" and not be as animated.

Pero, as my career moved on I learned that me being the way I am con todo la cosa was the way that I could feel most aligned and attracted people who made a difference in my life.

Lesson learned: be you and if they don't like the real you then it's a check on being in the right environment.

Believe me I left places after only 1 year of employment and thought that was career damaging, pero my gente, those mentors and sponsors opened doors for me into spaces that were the right fit.

So, mujer, be proud to be you and find your gente that are going to lift you up always!

What have you learned about being yourself in the workplace?

Guiding Latinas through life transitions from overwhelm, burnout, and exhaustion to a state of balance, peace, and calm through the power of meditation and mindfulness. 🧘‍♀️💆‍♀️​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Life can often throw us into a whirlwind of challenges, and it's essential to equip ourselves with tools to navigate these transitions with grace and resilience. For many Latinas, juggling multiple roles and responsibilities can be particularly demanding, leaving little time for self-care.

That's why I'm on a mission to change that narrative. Through the profound practices of meditation and mindfulness, we can transform our lives in remarkable ways. These practices offer a path to finding inner strength, clarity, and a sense of peace even in the midst of life's chaos.

My goal is to provide support, guidance, and a safe space for Latinas to embark on this journey of self-discovery. Together, we will explore techniques to manage stress, reconnect with our inner selves, and cultivate a sense of calm that can lead to a more balanced and fulfilling life.

I'm excited to announce the launch of our dedicated program, 2024 Mindful Goal Planning designed to empower our community.

If you or someone you know is looking to embrace a more peaceful and balanced life, I invite you to join us on this transformative journey. Together, we can break free from overwhelm, burnout, and exhaustion, and cultivate a life of lasting calm and resilience. Let's embrace the power of mindfulness and meditation for a brighter future. 🌟

🏃‍♀️ 😩 🌈 Ya girl did a half marathon! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Movement has been important to me over the last month. As a person navigating various health situation, I have found that moving my body improves my stress levels, blood pressure, blood sugars, and overall outlook in the world.

So, I decided to go hardcore and do a RunDisney half marathon.

Had I trained? No 🙄
Had I any idea of the time I would finish? No 😎
Had I wanted to run the entire thing? No 😵

What I did get was:

✨ the opportunity to spend an EARLY morning with my daddy enjoying the pre-race festivities
✨the chance to walk through parks with almost no one there
pictures with tons of my favorite characters
✨joy of having another day to have air in my lungs, movement in my legs and the ability to have fun.

RunDisney says it's about the magic in every mile. I believe that it's a reminder of the magic in every mile of nuestra vidas.

Enjoy, move, and bring joy to your world!

What's your plan?

Hola from a recovering perfectionist! ❤️‍🩹 ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​As a daughter of immigrants I grew up doing everything “right”. Being the good daughter, grew up to be a good wife, strong leader and mami.

But, I couldn’t do it all. I went from stressed out new mom by incorporating mindfulness and meditation into all aspect of my life.

Then, I added in my planning skills to say being perfect is not the way. Pero, I could create the best version of my life. That was the best gift I could give myself.

So, I created La Brega Wellness as a space to share what I learned with you!

Headed to my first conference. So grateful for space with other women focused on education, financial literacy and entrepreneurship opportunities for women

My story as a mami was one filled with obstacles one right after another. Pero ese amor for my baby love always kept me moving fwd. The grace and compassion I gave my baby love I also gave to myself as a repost from

That made it to Friday Energy.

Spent the day with my mami y papi. What a beautiful day to walk along side my parents as they reparented their inner child. They told me stories of the tropical foliage that mirror the way they grew up in Puerto Rico, animals they would see in their family farms, and were amazed by the Disney magic. It was such a day I will always hold dear to me.

🥳 Happy birthday to my nene lindo!

💛His fav color is yellow which coincides with the solar plexus chakra that is about confidence, self worth, and intuitive decisions. 💛

Landon is my constant reminder that as a Latina, Mami, business owner I can use my inner knowing to make decisions for our well being.

💕I love u Landon!

The season 3 finale of the Wellness Chisme Chat is here with my favorite Latina Coach, Ruby Garcia!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Ruby Garcia became fascinated with how culture influences leadership, and her work has focused on this topic. She is a coach and has combined her coaching knowledge with her Latina roots to provide insight into how culture impacts leadership. Ruby's interest in this area began when she worked with a coach who dismissed her family dynamics as just a story she told herself. So she created her Latina coaching business to support Latinas moving from self-sabotage to self-mastery.

Sometimes those things meant to protect us can also cause us harm. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​These dichos are ones that I have learned since being a little girl in a Puerto Rican household.

Pero, how can we challenge their original meanings to make them fit for our generation?

Join Kelly in a chat with a therapist Adora Chun Du, who discusses the lack of cultural diversity in the current therapy model, which is predominantly based on Western culture and ideals. She notes that this does not fit with non-Western cultures and societies. Adora promotes the need for different perspectives in therapy and a different way to conceptualize cultural differences for therapists.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Learn more about Adora's work Fauna
