Peaceful Mind, Peace on Earth
The holiday season has messages of Peace on Earth – but how do we create that? It starts with a peaceful mind, and yoga philosophy points the way.
Find the Light Through the Dark & Spooky
It’s a good time of year to explore the dark & spooky, to face our shadow, move through fear, and overcome illusions, as part of your personal and spiritual growth.
Non-Attachment and the Holidays
Find the holidays challenging? It could be expectations that cause our disappointment and stress. To find that inner peace we seek, try non-attachment throughout the season.
We have officially entered “the holiday season” here in the United States. When I was a kid, I was so excited about the holidays. Growing up celebrating Christmas, I had a lot of expectations about Santa, presents, beautiful decorations, great food, and fun, fun, fun! It didn’t always turn out the way I expected, though.
Seeing Kindness, Being Kindness

While the season calls for celebration, merriment, and goodwill towards all, we’ve been seeing a lot of suffering and conflict in our world.
We might easily feel less than optimistic about the nation and our relations with others, whether other countries or those we pass on the street. But I have been seeing beautiful reflections of kindness and love all around me, and find that the willingness and ability to see human benevolence bolsters not only my world view, but my perception of myself.
