I am such a fibber…I know. And yes, I do apologize. I promised we would return to part three of Ethics for all Humanity, and now I am changing my mind…or was that losing my mind? (I’ll explain shortly). Anyway, part three will just have to wait another week. Again, my humblest apologies, but I want […]
Midlife Crisis and Yoga
I have to tell you I know exactly what midlife crisis is all about – from the ‘man’ point of view, anyways… The jury is still out on the true reasons this occurs and is separated into two camps: A hormonal disorder that occurs naturally or unnaturally resulting in reduced testosterone levels which may be […]
Ethics for all Humanity…Part II: Satya
photo credit: ServantofAgape Hello again and welcome back! In last week’s article, we began a five part series based on the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali and the first of the Eight Limbs of Yoga; Yama, or ethical disciplines. Part one of Yama – Ethics for all Humanity is available through this link, and covers the […]
Yama – Ethics for all Humanity…Part I: Ahimsã
In a world gone mad where ethics are seldom pure, politicians are expected to lie, and the very foundation of our society appears to be falling from beneath us; it may time to consider Patanjali’s commandments that were designed to transcend country, creed, religion, age, and time. Patanjali wrote these commandments to apply to both […]

Nothing To Do, Nowhere to go…Waking Up To Who You Are
One of the Great Cosmic Jokes is that human beings rarely come to spontaneous realizations naturally. Usually, we have to first stuff ourselves with information, knowledge, scripture, lectures…on and on, until one day there is a *POP!*, and in that moment of realization – everything changes. Moments after, we become acutely aware that somehow nothing […]
Emergency Yoga
Welcome back to our beloved readers! I hope you have had the opportunity to put the “power of three” to the test, or are at least becoming more aware of it in your daily life… We’ve all had those days when despite our Tapas, (the flame of conscious, directed effort) life seems determined to undermine […]
Where three of more are gathered in my name…

Time flies when you are having fun! Looking back in my personal journals, I can see remnants of events in our world from then forward; […]
Ultimate Yoga Vitamins
Welcome back! Have you ever wondered why (aside from genetic disposition) some find it easier to stretch than others? One of the many factors within our control when it comes to muscle and tendon elasticity is our diet, and although we’ve talked about supplements that improve joint lubrication, we have yet to cover the vitamins […]
Sanskrit – The Language of Yoga
If you have ever been interested in Yoga or are an active participant, you have been exposed to this ancient sacred language. Literally; “refined speech,” Sanskrit represents one of the oldest of the Indo-European languages – with the pre-classical Sanskrit of the RigVeda and other ancient texts dating back roughly 4500 years to 5500 years […]
