“If you bring forth what is within you,
What you bring forth will save you.
If you do not bring forth what is within you,
What you do not bring forth will destroy you.”

  • Fighting evil may not be the best solution..

    It would be dishonest for me to say that I am not affected by the shenanigans on the political stage these days. I admit to, at times, feeling great discomfort, even fear, as I witness massive changes in the world order, and the uncertainty about tomorrow that this creates. At the same time, I believe […]

  • One year into the new chapter of my life – life is clicking into place.

    “If you want to be reborn, let yourself die. If you want to be given everything, give everything up.” ​~ Lao Tzu   These first days of March mark a year into the exhilarating new chapter of my life. ​Exactly a year ago, on February 29, 2024, I closed the doors to a place I […]

  • 3 reasons why you feel un-fulfilled in your relationships

    We all want deep, safe and fulfilling relationships. And yet few of us actually ever get to a degree of contentment we seek. When something doesn’t quite work in our relationships, the tendency is to focus on the external factors. I spent years picking apart my husband. I even blamed and projected on his mother […]

  • The endless longing for love stops here.

    Any fulfilling relationship with anything or anyone starts with you. You can blame others for your suffering, for your lack of fulfillment, but you will not get any relief from it. Not sustainably. And it will just keep you stuck. I know because I used to do that. I used to try to make my […]

  • Guess who picked a fight again? My scared inner child.

    Since we got here a week ago I have been mostly in pleasure. The air feels so good – warm enough for my body to be able to relax, yet with a refreshing breeze which keeps the warmth from becoming oppressive. I’ve returned to the morning group yoga classes held in the community garden, which […]

  • Healing trauma: what diving into the unknown teaches me.

    I started writing this yesterday, on the plane from Oaxaca back to Playa del Carmen. The feeling is that of returning home. It is fun to think that a little less than a year ago, in March of 2024, we landed here into a complete unknown. I have been enjoying these experiences very much over […]

  • Meeting my Anger – the side effect of People Pleasing

    My anger is powerful. When it rips through me, it feels like an all-consuming, overwhelming fire. I realize that even when I do not actively experience it, it is still there, somewhere deep within me, dormant until triggered. When directed at my husband, it also feels very self-righteous. I no longer fear my emotions. I […]

  • Where is Home? What is Home?

    The subject of home – what defines home, what feels like home, where is my home – is a recurring theme in my life. With the images of devastation of people’s homes by fire in Los Angeles, by floods in North Carolina just a few months ago, and the many other natural and man-made disasters […]

  • How I went from hate to love in just a few hours.

    I woke up Saturday morning still reeling from the ridiculous fight Wladimir and I had when we returned home the previous evening. I was particularly hurt, because the fight felt out of the blue: we actually had a really nice Friday. We’d had some good conversations and I felt connected. We’d spent the afternoon walking […]

    Book Galina for speaking engagements
  • "Galina’s voice is strikingly unique, particularly in the feminist space. Her words carry the weight of deep self-enquiry and hard-won truth. She offers the reader a bracingly fresh perspective on relationships, femininity, empowerment, and self-responsibility. The revelations she unearths are often profoundly uncomfortable in their clarity but strangely comforting to finally hear spoken out loud. She cuts right through our layers of conditioning to the heart of the female experience."
