Stress & karma: a few thoughts…

Hi friends! Yes, a few thoughts on stress... it is well accepted that yoga practices help free a person from stress. Stress, I would say, is a natural part of living life and the more one lives life the more stress one has to confront. What changes, of course, through yogic practice is how we...

Meditation: breaking out of the matrix…

Hi All, meditation is a process, it's also a lifestyle with profound consequences for how one experiences reality... Should we be interested in reality today? Absolutely! I believe that reality is not quite as straight forward as it seems! In fact, in my blog yesterday i used the word "control" - that throughout human history...

Thanks…

Awestruck at natures beauty…

Today i've been in the English seaside town of Brighton. I arrived a few days ago to meet with members of our tantra yoga group.

Fasting gives you more time for the subtle pursuits…

Hi friends! Today is fasting day - yep - that means no food or water for 24 hours - from sunrise to sunrise the next day! In our tantra yoga we fast according to the lunar cycle - that is, the position of the moon - namely, 11 days after the full moon and 11...
