In these rapidly changing times, it is more important than ever to know ourselves well and fully, even and especially in the face of turmoil. In his latest collection of poetry and short prose, Yung Pueblo encourages readers to connect more deeply to their intuition, using it to remain focused and grounded amidst a world in constant flux.
For anyone navigating change, healing old patterns, or searching for greater inner peace, The Way Forward offers gentle insights to help you reconnect with yourself and move forward with intention.
Diego Perez was born in Ecuador and immigrated to the United States as a child. He grew up in Boston and attended Wesleyan University. During a silent Vipassana meditation course in 2012, he saw that real healing and liberation were possible. He became more committed to his meditation practice while living in New York City. The results he witnessed firsthand moved him to describe his experiences in writing. The penname Yung Pueblo means “young people” and is meant to convey that humanity is entering an era of remarkable growth and healing, when many will expand their self-awareness and release old burdens. Diego’s online presence as Yung Pueblo, as well as his books, are meant to serve those undertaking their own journey of personal transformation. Today, Diego resides in Western Massachusetts with his wife, where they live quietly and meditate daily.
