The Kripalu Effect Cover your ears if you are sensitive to TMI, but there exists something called the "Kripalu Effect".  The first signs are eating way too much at their delicious and nutritious meals in their dining hall.  Then you begin to feel the bloated "I've eaten too many beans and veggies" feeling, which could [...]

I keep up this glamorous appearance until all vestiges of winter are [...]

I know that I won't be popular as I state this, but I love these last ditch efforts of Mother Nature to coat our world in white.  My view may be myopic as I enjoy the snow from my home and do not have to drive out in it.  My heart pours out to those [...]

There are so many inspiring people out there and so many inspiring stories.  I was driving to my first yoga class this morning and thinking about all the other people driving to wherever they had to be.  Which got me to thinking that many of them are also going to their place of work.  And [...]

This has been a pretty rough week thus far.  I don't need to rehash why.  But where does one turn when the world seems a pretty rotten place.  How do we heal ourselves and others?  First step is inward and then outward.Our approach to the inner realm must be slow, gentle and filled with compassion [...]
