About ALex Sabbag
Alex
Hi! I’m
I’m a bestselling author, speaker, two-time business owner, and entrepreneur. My most recent venture, Soul Dive Yoga, was founded in 2022 in Palm Desert, California. Seeking solace in the practice, I not only found healing but also discovered a profound mission to share the transformative power of yoga with the world. My debut memoir, Soul Dive: My Journey into the Deep, is my story of resilient triumph, in and outside the studio, on and off the yoga mat. Through my voice, I hope to empower and inspire others to embrace life’s challenges, surrender to the divine redirects and find greater peace, purpose and presence in their own lives.
We have all experienced the moment when life flattened you down to the earth and hit “force quit” on your world as you knew it. It’s a 2X4 moment, when you’re slapped upside the head so hard you can’t see straight. When you wake up one way and go to bed another. Moments like these unify us in this human experience, no one is immune and I promise that life is coming for you, it’s just a matter of when. For me, this moment arrived on my 33rd birthday, the day my boyfriend was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
These moments change the trajectory of our lives. Who we were before and who we become after.
The rest of our lives defined by how we walk through the aftermath, comb through the rubble and eventually,
Rise from the ashes.
How you move through these experiences is a choice. How you choose to proceed redefines your human experience. More often than not, these life altering experiences have the power to wake us up, snap us into purpose and set us on the path we were always meant to walk. But if we’re not listening, we keep getting hit. Afterall, we got hit so hard in the first place because we were deaf and blind to the subtle taps and whispers inviting us to take another route. It’s through our own stubborn agenda we find our life on fire. We’re either running back into the flames or in a pile sobbing on the bathroom floor. 10/10 don’t recommend either (I tried both).
I’m Alex. I’m a recovering 2X4 learner. My journey, laced with resilience, faith and rising from the ashes of life's redirects, is chronicled in my memoir, Soul Dive: My Journey Into the Deep. As we come to find out, the human experience requires plenty of grit, grace and gratitude. Through my voice I remind people they aren't alone, give them permission to laugh and empower them to keep going.
What does this mean for you?
No matter where you are in your life journey I can make a few promises. Life is coming, you’re probably not ready and the botched patchwork keeping pieces of your world on life support isn’t going to last. Also, you’re more than likely a prisoner in your own life… More good news, YAY!
So let’s level set. Let’s start from a place where we can all relate. Let’s start at the moment where you had a can of gasoline in one hand and a match in the other.
Light it.
And let it burn.
