Week 6 Post-Brahmacharya In my quest for equality, I am at the point where I no longer assume the victim role. I am in charge of my own destiny and no one can define who I am but me. I may look like a female Puerto Rican, but the content of my brain and the …
Week 5 Post-Brahmacharya My last week in the apartment with my great roommate. Who knows how often I will see her after I move out? She became my first friend in DC. I want to buy her a spa gift. Something special since she works so hard and doesn’t get a lot of credit or …
Week 4 Post-Brahmacharya I have a date with the Brazilian tonight. He has a ticket to see a singer from the favelas and he says I can “pay him back with drinks, kisses or back scratching.” The fact that I even have to “pay him” digs into my orange chakra issues. I feel like a …
Week 3 Post-Brahmacharya Ended up doing yogalates in Dupont Circle and then going to dinner with the Brazilian afterwards. Ivy league educated. Used to trade steel. He is headed to Asia for a month to solve their carbon problems. He is light energy. I didn’t like his aggressive approach to me the first time I …

Week 2 of Post-Brahmacharya I have spent the weekend meditating and writing at my friend’s house in Alexandria. I escaped the city on Friday – literally. I had all the B-O-Yz hollerin at the same time and I had to beat them off like they were a pack of dogs. This shit could get to …

Week 21 of Brahmacharya Over the holiday weekend, my soul mate and I worked on a project together. We put the “Love Economy” into practice. All this time I thought the end of the story was going to be my birthday. But then my soul mate reminded me that I should stop focusing on endings. …
Week 20 of Brahmacharya My soul mate decided not to spend my birthday with me. He has to shoot a wedding. How ironic? He is clearly not interested in pursuing anything with me right now. Fine. Do I stop living? No. How do I spend my birthday? I can do anything I want!! And I …
Week 19 of Brahmacharya I am sitting in the airport waiting to return to DC after a full weekend in Miami. I don’t feel sad or anxious or pissed. It’s just my life. And I think I like it. At least today I do. I wanted to go straight to my soul mate’s place as …
Week 18 of Brahmacharya I am going home this week. Finally. After four months of working, learning, stretching, swimming, creating, writing, cooking and healing, I am going back. It’s just for a 3-day weekend. But my heart beats faster just thinking about it. I will be with my soul mate again. I had a dream …
