A Better Society Is Possible…for Everyone

April 5, 2015 by William Ferro

A Better Society Is Possible…for Everyone

A country’s budget proposals are ethical and moral documents; they reflect what a society considers important. When a budget is proposed that would take what little is set aside for the most vulnerable, when it would literally take food out of poor children’s mouths to pad the bank accounts millionaires and billionaires, persons of conscience […]

De Profundis

August 18, 2014 by William Ferro

De Profundis

Yesterday I saw one of those horrifying videos of an American cop savagely beating up a woman, and another casually spraying Mace into the eyes of a terrified little girl. My inner rage-beast was instantly hooked; I inwardly snarled, “Of COURSE it’s a white cop beating up on black women and children.” Then I caught […]

Vitamin D: Is the sunshine vitamin as beneficial as they say?

November 16, 2012 by Anne-Marie

Whether it’s because you’re rushing from event to event, stressing about shopping or just not getting outside enough..winter is a time which seems to take a toll on our bodies.   In these times, I’ve always stressed to both my students and family to stock up on vitamins: in particular vitamin D and the Omega’s.  […]

Trampling the Goddess, Part Three

Trampling the Goddess, Part Three

A U.S. Election Week Question Can anyone explain to me the right-wing campaign in the United States to criminalize family planning and normalize sexual assault? Politician after politician has trivialized rape in order to undergird an ideological stance on a woman’s right to choose when to bring children into the world. Not satisfied with merely […]

A Few New Yoga Resources

September 27, 2012 by Kelly Thompson

I cracked open this months Chatelaine and was excited to see a new article on “Virtual Yoga.” I’ve noted that I’m a huge fan of online yoga resources, mostly because I am someone who doesn’t particularly enjoy yoga in studios as I get a little claustrophobic when surrounded by too many other people. But when […]

After the Hate, the Good Stuff: Counter-Demonstrations of Love

We get so bombarded by bad news all the time. Recently, films and stories out of the Middle East assaulted our senses and minds with images and narratives of outraged mobs and murder. These are serious toxins that are best dealt with through a disciplined spiritual practice. In order to transform hatred and violence into […]

A Reason to Breathe … A Day for Taking Refuge

September 11, 2012 by William Ferro

A Reason to Breathe … A Day for Taking Refuge

Eleven years ago today, my wife came perilously close to losing her life in the 9-11 attacks. Every year on this date, I have a special reason to breathe mindfully, take refuge, and seek balance. When Siddhartha identified hatred, greed, and delusion as “The Three Poisons” that cause human suffering, it was a stroke of […]

It Lies within Our Power

It Lies within Our Power

Ending Gun Violence in America I recommend meditating for at least twenty minutes before reading or watching the news. It simply contains too many psychic toxins to approach it without centering and calming yourself first. Watching news reports (or worse, political debates) without meditating can be the emotional equivalent of knocking over a wasp’s nest […]

Is Yoga For Everyone?

Is Yoga For Everyone?

Imagine my surprise, considering the vast enjoyment of yoga across the world, to come across this article in the New York Times. In it, the author explores the practice of Glenn Black, an instructor in New York who feels that yoga has become too widespread as a general class, and that it is not, in […]

Escape to the Water: Paddle Board Yoga

Escape to the Water: Paddle Board Yoga

There is something mesmerizing about water.   When I’m particularly stressed or just need a place to focus: I seek out water.  Almost immediately, the water seems to relax and soothe.  Water is my favourite  place to go to meditate.    When I watch water, my breath seems to naturally find its own pranayamic like rhythm. I’m […]
