Soul Expression

I overdid it this week. Pushed too hard. Tired of my prolonged lethargy (it takes me a while to come out of my winter hibernation) and subsequent lack of muscle tone and cardio prowess, I decided to get my rump in gear and get active. I've embraced a vigorous daily yoga practice and made a commitment to walk or hike every day. This being my first week, and feeling pretty excited about getting in better shape, I didn't really moderate my activity.

No worries :) I've learned that it can be not just counter productive but utterly detrimental to my path to overvalue certain aspects of the human experience (where I want to be, who I t

Hi friends! I've been struggling a lot lately with the destruction of our planet. How to help? How to deal with my anguish over this? How not to hate people for destroying the earth out of greed?
