“I am a changing growing being, so let me flow with nature, and allow myself to develop new interests and new likes— let go of old parts of myself that don’t really serve me anymore and start letting my idea of who I am continue to blossom.” — Yung Pueblo
The words above remind me to embrace the truth, we are dynamic, ever-evolving creatures, designed to flow with nature. To foster fresh perspectives and revitalise our sense of passion, to unfurl new layers of self is part of what it means to be human.
For those in a moment of transition, these words may resonate more deeply with you— as it has with me. If you seek insights on transcending past traumas, consider turning your ear to How To Let Go Of Suffering and Embrace What Is with Yung Pueblo on The Doctor’s Farmacy podcast with Dr. Mark Hyman, which will revive your compass to navigate your journey forwards toward healing. This episode deserves your undivided attention.
Lighter: Let Go of the Past, Connect with the Present, and Expand the Future is a title that beams with distinctive luminosity. Yung Pueblo, the pen name of Diego Perez, is an author that has forever changed not only my life but the life of millions. More than just a familiar companion, this book blossoms into an intimate narrative filled with ethereal wisdom. Perez, a New York Times bestseller, distils the complex cocktail of human experience into a soothing brew of poetic prose.
While his other books, Inward and Clarity & Connection read more like poetry, his third title is a departure from his previous format— a new narrative that integrates anecdotes and his iconic style. The magic in his words lies in his ability to distil the complexity of the human experience into raw nuggets of wisdom and inspiring prose. ‘Lighter’ is a book that is instantly relatable and a key that opens doors to introspection, which should earn a space on every bookshelf.
For those of us hungry for growth, periods of reflection become essential as the very air we breathe. Perhaps the vast seas of optimisation are weary of us, or our wallets groan under the weight of therapy or meditation apps. Amongst the noise, The School of Life emerges, as a company of a league of its own.
It’s a creative atelier that serves products that aim to cultivate self-discovery, introspection, and critical thinking in the many iterations of its mission and vision. Whether it’s a journal, a deck of cards to deepen relationships, or a book that challenges conventional dogma, they’re a clear example of a mission-driven business, eager to make a difference in the world and one worth your attention.
Spellbound by the originality of Nishe’s art— the glow of the hues and the waltz of the tactile undulations of the paint create a symphony that’s pleasing to the eyes. On the surface, one might sense a playful flirtation with the rich tapestry of Japanese culture or an echo of familiarity with the distinctive aesthetics of techno album art.
Yet, as one peels back the layers, a more profound narrative unfolds. Each composition, initially perceived as an ode to two-dimensionality, pushes beyond its boundaries of perception to pulsate with enigmatic depths through lively textures and form. While it eludes to an easy definition, each work is a unique expression of nostalgia and novelty. Its indefinability is what makes his work compelling and a siren’s call to our appreciation and imagination.
Navigating the auditory spectacle of Jamie XX’s guiding genius, it’s impossible not to appreciate every note in his compositions— and 2017 Live Remix of Shelter is no exception. Standing as a testament to this musical savant’s undeniable brilliance, the track creates a captivating soundscape that’s alive with energy and peppered with novel rhythms and soothing melodies.
Romy and Oliver’s distinctive vocals remain the anchor amidst this sonic whirlwind, as their harmonious echoes remind us of the distinction The XX elevates the music to— especially at a live performance.
Yet, if Indie Rock isn’t to your taste, make sure to check out my Spotify page which serves as a thoughtfully curated music emporium, housing an eclectic mix of playlists that cater to the broad spectrum of your aural appetites.
Here’s a quote to appreciate: “People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don’t find myself saying ‘soften the orange a bit on the right-hand corner.” I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds” — Carl R. Rogers
