Connectivity, Ojas + Productivity: Ayurvedic Chats with Dr. Claudia Welch
Three of my favorite words are Connectivity, Productivity + Dharma. Without connectivity productivity is futile. It comes at the expense at that which enables it.

Maya Tiwari on Dharma, Power, Writing Books, + Healing
One day a podcast guest form from Maya Tiwari appeared in my inbox. On cue, I jumped up and threw a happy dance, which for me has a lot of butt and wild arms. I’d tried to get Maya Tiwari in the Ayurveda Summit a half a year before, but a death in India kept […]
Acharya Shunya on How the Dharma Protects Us
“If we protect the dharma, the dharma protects us….” Or so the conversation begins with Acharya Shunya. I count myself on the list of lucky mortals to have befriended this living guru.
