Your Past Need Not Become Your Future.

via on May 22, 2013

  No matter how hard we want to, there’s one thing we can never do and that’s change the past. We can weep, beat our fists against the wall, eat bags of cookies to assuage our guilt, but it won’t make the slightest bit of difference and won’t make us feel any better. The past [...]

36 Things I Have Learned in 36 Years. ~ Mary Grace Peak

via on May 22, 2013

I have been living in a state of disbelief that I am 36 years old. How did it happen? Where did the time go? Am I really make me an adult now? I feel like I am 21. And at under five feet tall, I can sneak in with a group of fifth graders on [...]

A Heart That is Ready for Anything.

via on May 22, 2013

With an undefended heart, we can fall in love with life over and over every day. We can become children of wonder, grateful to be walking on earth, grateful to belong with each other and to all of creation. We can find our true refuge in every moment, in every breath.

I Found Beauty in My Armpit Hair.

via on May 22, 2013

My favourite part of the day was taking off my clothes and staring at my armpits. 11:45AM—12:05PM, my designated shower time. It was during these 20 minutes I learned to let go of the absence of. The bathroom was small and still warm from the previous bather. I shut the door and was in the [...]

Does Everything Have to Be Hard?

via on May 22, 2013

Some things in life require hard work. But for many, the feeling that everything has to be hard gets in the way of life just moving forward, period.

Don’t Drag Him to Yoga—Let Him Be a Man. ~ Shasta Townsend

via on May 22, 2013

One way to encourage your husband to join you on the mat is to just let it all be. Stop telling him he should stop smoking, lose ten pounds, not eat hamburgers or watch less football. He sees this as criticism and we tend to not want to spend time with those who criticize us.

Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius: Clearing the Debris. ~ Kelly Lydick

via on May 22, 2013

If we think of the sun as our rational, logical, egoic mind, and the moon as our emotional and intuitive sensibilities, then an eclipse like this is an opportunity to participate in the cosmic dance, and allow an alignment of our own duality to occur.

10 Things I Learned the Year After I Graduated from College. ~ Amy Cammel

via on May 21, 2013

It’s been one year since I graduated, and I have learned more in that year than in all four years at college. It’s been one year since I put on that cap and gown and army crawled to the stadium for graduation with everyone else that stayed out celebrating too late the night before. It’s been 12 [...]

What Meditation Made Me Realize about my iPhone Addiction. ~ Jenny Sansouci

via on May 21, 2013

Last week I went up to Kripalu for a conference on yoga, meditation and addiction recovery. One of the teachers of the conference was Noah Levine, author of a few books focusing on Buddhist teachings, including Against the Stream and Dharma Punx (I actually wrote a short post about him, punk rock and Buddhism back [...]

5 Ways to Have a Ridiculously Amazing Life. ~ Richelle Morgan

via on May 21, 2013

I used to dream, wish and hope for an amazing life—not just an okay life, but a ridiculously amazing life. When I was younger, that dream had me rolling in style, of course, with fabulous clothes, a big house and a fast car. As I grew older and wiser, the material wants and needs of [...]

Beating the “I Want It All, Now” Syndrome. ~ Carly Shankman

via on May 21, 2013

There is truth in the saying “slow and steady wins the race.” It’s incredibly easy to get online and check out my friend’s pictures on Facebook or learn about the new diet my friend’s on and feel like I am falling behind in regards to where I should be. This act of comparing myself to [...]

Goodbye, Caribou.

via on May 21, 2013

Now in Alberta, only 5% of the boreal forest survives—a thin corridor for the caribou and other migrating animals. Nothing much survives when the rich and colorful boreal forest full of bird song, wildlife and a variety of plant species is stripped down to naught but tar sands—a bleak, black and lifeless environment.

It Flows Through You. ~ Kelsey Frazier

via on May 21, 2013

And yet, it occurred to me that there is one thing I can do in every moment: Be true to my self. This is a self that is ready to love, ready to shine, ready to be extraordinary and inspire other towards the extraordinary in themselves—because you are all (whether you know it or not) extraordinary.

When Differences Pull Us Apart & How They Bring Us Together. ~ Matthew Gindin

via on May 21, 2013

Ayurveda of Love. When I wake up in the morning I am groggy, slow, and disorientated, kind of like someone very drunk. My wife, on the other hand, more resembles a bird in a Disney film, flitting colorfully from branch to branch, sometimes a bit too dizzily. I regain normal consciousness by means of coffee [...]

“I never lost consciousness and I hollered for my little dog and he didn’t answer, he didn’t come, so I know he’s in here somewhere.” ~ Barbara Garcia An elderly woman whose entire home was destroyed by the Oklahoma tornado found her pet dog amongst the devastation during a live TV interview. There is always [...]
