Endings (Part Eight)…

Endings, by their very nature, allow us the opportunity to reflect.  What once served us now fades into the background for new opportunities to emerge.  Oftentimes, this can feel stressful and uncertain.  When the comfort of the past transmutes into the excitement of a new tomorrow hope becomes the catalyst to keep us moving forward.  It’s easy to stay mired in the past because it is so familiar that we don’t have to use our spiritual and mental resources to navigate that which we already know.  That comfort comes at a cost—the choice of living the safe life is weighted […]

Heavily Meditated

The following is an excerpt from my newest book, Heavily Meditated, on the history and power of the breath.  The book is due out in the summer of 2021. “The breath is the surest way to reclaim your power. Through the breath we find the essence of our true potentiality.”  When fear grips us, the breath is the gateway to reclaim our personal divinity.

With this in mind, Adi and I set out for a Sunday drive to drink in the spring flowers and to feed our never-ending lust for travel.

Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” —Mark Twain When time seems abundant, we all have a tendency to get complacent and play it safe.  When we feel we have years ahead of us and plenty of time at our disposal, we have a penchant to “wait for another day” to go after our dreams and aspirations.  Oftentimes, it is only when we are

The Bat Signal (Part Six)…

“You have to make the next move before anything else can happen.” The message was direct.  I could sense it was the energy of my father as he nudged me out of my comfort zone and pressed me to make the journey to Costa Rica.  Signs from the Universe are always interesting markers that can guide us to our destiny.  We can ask for signs to help us down our path however at some point, we must move towards the divination.  We are in a constant state of co-creation with the Universe—a two-step of sorts—and we must play our part
