Thanksgiving and Gratitude

I am grateful for my life, my teacher, my family and friends...and Tofurky! Happy Thanksgiving!

Growing through study and community

One of the important teachings of Yoga is to find and thrive in community. Sangha is the coming together of like-minded seekers to do just that!

Do you know your purpose?

Many of us never stop to ask why we are here. But a yearning for purpose may be at the root of our unhappiness. Yoga can help.

Time to Quit!

Don't worry, I will never quit Yoga! It is my life and my dharma after all. But is time to quit another shenanigan of popular yoga. First it was commercial yoga centres. Now the teachers' Facebook page. Oh my!

Yoga Conferences, More than Crass Commercialism

I'm not a fan of the yoga extravaganza and in that I include such things as "Yoga on the Hill" and yoga conferences. However, there is something to be said for these events.

Healing Yourself AND Others

Yoga offers up a range of techniques that not only allow us to heal our own bodies, minds and spirits, but to use that shakti to heal others.

2013 - Make it Your Year

Using techniques of the yoga and tantra traditions we can powerfully affect our futures. Connect with your Self Essence and begin to shine.

Healing for the Holidays

The holiday season is supposed to be filled with joy, giving and celebrations. Yet is often brings up unresolved issues and emotions. Healing is necessary for us to grow beyond the pain of our past.
