Fitness is great, we need it, but yoga is so much more than Fitness. Yoga is about health and balance for mind and body; it is not concerned about looking good.

8y ago5:24

5:24

Excerpt: As the adrenaline wore off I replayed the accident in my mind and realized how lucky I was to have walked away. I also realize that according to the rules of the road I had the right of way and yet the other driver was seething and acted as if it was my fault! Even then I’m still not mad at her. Why? I should be mad as hell! But I know tha…

BLOG: Freedom of expression is not enough; we must demand responsible speech! 12:52

8y ago12:52

12:52

Excerpt: Free speech only works when it is responsible, and people in public eye, television stations and news organizations need to recognize their power and take responsibility.

8+ y ago20:36

20:36

Excerpt: What is in an image? Can beauty be harmful? When is an image information, art or communication?

8+ y ago17:11

17:11

Excerpt: The reason I am rambling about all my medical records to you is to say, I don’t get it. It never crossed my mind to not get vaccinated. As a matter of fact, since this country made sure that I had all this protection I was absolutely flabbergasted to learn that American born children don’t have to go through all this rigor to go to school!…

I say this all the time, and I will say now; the United States is an imperfect country, but it is still the best among all the imperfec…

6:19

Excerpt: Some of us have more anxiety than others, I have to admit, I had to learn how to handle anxiety. It was just the luck of the draw, somehow genetics and circumstances shaped me to be a bit more on edge. If you don’t know this about me you may probably never peg me for a nervous type. I am pretty sure I am not alone.…

15:11

Excerpt: I click on Gmail: “Look, two surveys!” I say out loud to my dogs. “No surprise there! Does anybody ever find out anything through these things?

BLOG: Calling an end to masculine and feminine labels in yoga 58:03

8+ y ago58:03

58:03

Excerpt: I occasionally hear instruction from yoga teachers to roll either to the left or the right side of the body after savasana to allow blood flow to go either to the linear-analytical-masculine left side of the brain or the creative- feminine right side. I have to be honest, hearing this always makes me cringe. I will not go into the ways the…

Excerpt: Liberal education is not only useful, it’s a prerequisite, the life blood of a healthy society. I am not advocating that we should all have degrees in art history or literature, but I do believe that we should all take courses in philosophy, literature and art. Practical degrees in science, medicine, computer science and vocational trades …
