Laying in bed last night, I said my prayers and took stock in how my body was feeling. It’s something that I do every night. I always assess what I did that day, what I consumed and how I was feeling. As I was going through my routine, my mind had a thought. It wasn’t a totally …
Right before vacation I traveled down to Morgantown, Wv with my sister. She had an interview and I went because I love Morgantown and really look for any excuse I can to go down there. I went to West Virginia University which is in Motown 🙂 She dropped me off downtown while she went for …
Similarly to my post from last Miracle Monday (about our diagnosis not defining us!), The following is a quote I came across while studying the yamas! “By performing asanas, the sadhaka first gains health, which is not mere existence.

Everyone has bad days. Healthy people. Rich people. Sick people. Poor people. E-v-e-r-y-o-n-e. To be completely honest, no one person is ‘worst’ off than another person.
