    Healing From Within

    June 30, 2020 / No Comments

    How I managed my migraines naturally My essay is up today at Exploring Wellness. I talk about how I decided my life needed a change when I was suffering from 15-20 migraine days a month. I was miserable and stressed out. I was tired of taking so many drugs. Reiki came to my rescue and from there I learned how to maintain a consistent meditation and yoga practice. My migraine days were reduced significantly. You can read the entire article here: Healing from Within: How I Managed my Migraines Naturally

    A Reiki Rescue During a Pandemic

    May 4, 2020 / No Comments

    Today I have a piece up on P.S. I Love You on my new rescue pup, Zoe. It’s a thank you to her for saving me from what could have been a dark and scary time. I know we’re all suffering from anxiety and fear of the unknown right now. Perhaps we’re angry with what’s happening to our communities and our lives. Yet it’s important to take a moment and appreciate what you have right now. To listen to what the universe is trying to tell you. To tap into that place of forgiveness, hope, and joy. You may find something life-changing at the end of it. Zoe did that…

    Eating my Way Through Taichung

    December 30, 2019 /

    When I went from a fun three-day trip in Taipei to Taichung, the second largest city in Taiwan, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was excited to see my dad but I figured there was nothing to do. It wasn’t as cosmopolitan or vibrant as Taipei. I was proven wrong. The food alone is worth the trip. I fell in love with Taichung and can’t wait to go back. And did I mention the food? I write about my entire culinary journey today at Writers on the Run. Warning: it will leave you feeling hungry!

    How Reiki Worked for Me But Not as I Expected

    December 5, 2019 /

    My post is up today at P.S. I Love You! My first publication with them and I’m so thrilled! It’s about how my Reiki class brought me closer to my father. I was always a worrywart ever since I can remember. Over time, it brought on debilitating migraines, chronic inflammation, and hives. I needed to relieve my anxiety and stress but I never knew how. So I signed up for a Reiki class. What it did for me was beyond what I could imagine. Not only did I learn how to relax and bring down my anxiety, but it allowed me to be more open and vulnerable. If you want…

About SoCal Sarah

Hi, I’m Sarah and I live in Southern California where I blog, write, and plan my next trip. As a certified Arrivedo travel writer, I’m so grateful to be able to mesh my two passions: travel and writing!
Had a fantastic last day in Tucson at the botanical garden where they have a butterfly exhibit. Spotted a bunny in the wild finally too. #tucson #desert #botanicalgardens #tucsonbotanicalgardens #arizona Found a fantastic place in downtown for tacos #tucson #tacos #lachingada #nomnom #lcc2023 Happy gotcha day, Zoe! 3 years ago today, she hid under my couch, terrified and shaking. An hour later, she let me pet her. Now she's perfected the look of disgust when she doesn't get her snacks 🤣 💜🐶 #rescuedog #dogsofinstagram #ilovemydog❤️ Started off the morning with my first goat yoga class! So much fun and it's like a nice little back massage. 🤣 Such a fun event with @jenjchow @ellenbyronmariadirico & @jesseqsutanto at @therippedbodice! What a cool store! In non-Election Day news, happy to have WITNESSES FOR THE DEAD out today from @soho_press. Edited by Gary Phillips and Gar Anthony Haywood with a lineup I'm proud to be a part of. Zoe approves. Finally arrived at my hotel after 4+ hour flight delay. Birthday celebration has officially begun. Opening and closing songs from last night. Such an amazing show. First time seeing them! Teenage me would be dying right now.
