How To Make Sacred Moments. ~ Sarah Stevenson
by elephantjournal.com on Aug 2, 2011
Not exactly your typical recipe for a sacred moment, but a sacred moment all the same. The key to this sacred moment is that it included things that I hold very dear to my heart and these things were able to synchronistically exist together in one moment...531 views

Malignant Humility and Letting Your Freak Flag Fly. ~Abigail Stoddart
by elephantjournal.com on Aug 2, 2011
During the last six months, I had set the personal goal of re-discovering my confidence. I addressed all the usual confidence-building suspects by getting a new haircut, donating my least favorite articles of clothing, creating playlists made up only of my favorite music, etc. — with unimpressive results.721 views

I’m in a rut!!! (or God is NOT a noun)
by Tom Grasso on Aug 2, 2011
I was taught that God is a Being very much like me except far more powerful and much less culpable for his behavior. He gets angry. He will "teach (me) a lesson". He will damn me to hell and apparently take great joy in my eternal suffering. He will even kill me if he has had enough of me. Yet he loves me, is merciful and is compassionate. Yes, my head often spun on its axis...369 views

From Judgment to Curiosity to Grace
by Meg Worden on Aug 2, 2011

Feng Shui: Is your home keeping you broke?
by Jennifer Bonetto on Aug 2, 2011
We all have the ability within us to know what is good for us and what is bad. Making sense of where we live has a lot to do with our intuitive “hits” and listening. If it doesn’t feel right, look right or seem right, chances are it probably isn’t going to be. Our environment is a reflection of where we are in that moment of time.1,176 views

Un-figure it Out!
by Grace Ventura Sardonicus on Aug 2, 2011
In my awake dream I feel the fear of not knowing. My mind’s response is to figure it out. I can’t fall back asleep as I have fallen out of faith. Faith in myself and life. So I begin to breathe deeply. Allowing the emotion to course through. What shows up is a sensation in my chest. A tightening. So I breathe deeper.264 views

There is no such thing as karma – or how anything can become dogma bullsh*t
by Aminda R. Courtwright on Aug 1, 2011
In the end I do not discount the possibility that karma is no more real than the easter bunny, that hot yoga may be the cure for cancer, that anusara principles can fix broken bones, or that god may not even exist-514 views

Just Make Art to Experience Yoga!
by Katarina Silva on Aug 1, 2011
At the height of artistic expression the line between us and the universe becomes deliciously blurred. As in passionate lovemaking, when erotic rapture makes it impossible to tell where you end and your lover begins. That’s when pure pleasure rushes in. A kind of ananda. Yes, there is an unmistakable pleasure connected to making art!977 views
