In reading the book The Yamas and Niyamas by Deborah Adele as a part of The Unity Study, I am struck by just how much this ancient practice of yoga applies to our modern life, and how something so old can be so easily relatable and applicable to our current lives.

Unity and Yin
I signed up for the Unity Study course today with the Living Soul Institute. I had a wonderful conversation with the founder Kristin Gibowicz and we loved each other immediately. I feel like you are having me walk into a new chapter. Learning about the true teachings of Jesus – who he was, how heContinue reading “Unity and Yin”
Parents
Dear TéO, I’m wondering how to be with my parents. I need a different relationship from the one that I have now.

She is a mirror for people she encounters. A conduit for them to find their way back to themselves. She must first recognize thatContinue reading “H.M.”

So lately I’ve been having these flash thoughts– doubting my ability to do certain things. Thoughts like– “it’s too hard,” “maybe I’m not cut out to do this,” maybe this is not for me.” They don’t linger because I immediately squash the thought. But I’m curious why this is coming up…and what I can toContinue reading “One Foot In Front of the Other”
