How do I know if I am Progressing Spiritually?

I often wonder if I am progressing spiritually and ultimately it’s probably not possible to judge this process unless you are the master. But I found this checklist (my words) in The Yoga of the Bhagavad Gita (click on the photo to review this book) written by Parmahansa Yogananada. I find it to be helpful and hope [...]

Try Yoga for Back Pain Relief

A friend of mine has experienced soreness and stiffness in her lower back for many years probably brought on by many years of heavy sports involvement. She’s been to every kind of specialist there is, but has never been satisfied with the various diagnoses.

Most doctors prescribe medication of some kind, but the last thing most people [...]

Is Aging Just a State of Mind?

My 94-year old uncle was as robust, energetic and intelligent as a high-energy 25-year old until he passed away last year.  Yet I often meet people in their 60s who keep saying they don’t have the health or energy they used to have.  And, oh those senior moments when their memory fails.  So what’s the difference?

I [...]

What’s Missing to Get Passed The Mind’s Turbulent Antics?

I remember when I first learned to meditate. We were asked to meditate for 15 minutes because it takes the average mind at least 11 minutes to calm down. Then you have three good minutes, and that’s pretty much what you need to get to peace of mind and the deeper states of yoga.

After my first [...]

The Secret of Money

Secret of Money

It’s no secret that sex and money often consume a majority share of our attention.

So it’s a relief to see women finally acknowleding that we don’t all have to look like a model to live like beautiful women. Even Vogue recently published a photo of a model with a teeny weeny buldge on [...]

Why Chant? Why Not?

Why not Chant?

While I was driving passed a new yoga center, I saw a sign that really made me sad. It said, “No chanting…No Oms.” I get that some people are uncomfortable with the idea of chanting. When I first started yoga (over 20 years ago), the first time I saw people singing along to [...]

Yoga Fix for Depression

Yoga fix for Depression

My friend just called, and she’s the sixth person that recently told me they were on antidepressants. I’m glad they have something that helps them feel better because depression is so debilitating. But I know there is one basic yoga truth that has proved successful. It worked for me at one of [...]

Victim Consciousness

Yoga Releases Victim Consciousness

For as long as I can remember I have been surrounded by people who insist on maintaining their victim consciousness. There are many and varied reasons for this but the main one usually comes down to fear.

Compare two friends I spoke with recently who have the same problem: both of them want [...]
