Meditate with a Partner

Meditation makes you more present, more aware, more curious, more efficient, more available, more resilient, more skillfully communicative, flexible in how you show up and respond, more empathic (aka “nicer to hang with), smarter, more intuitive, less afraid, and more ethical.

Detox Stories
I asked my Yogidetox community for personal yogidetox stories. The stories from my detoxers split open my heart. At the helm of this big ship I can’t know each person’s unique process.

Prana, your digestive tract, and eating green
What is your Maha Vaha Srota?

Of course, the past 40 years is the first epoch in our history that we nailed how to supersede Nature. And obviously, superseding Nature rocks… especially […]

Forever an opportunist, I decided to maximize my lung capacity on my favorite mountain bike trails. Intense aerobic athletic […]
