The most important day of my life is today! Nothing stays the same forever and things can change in an instant. We all instinctively know this, but sometimes we might prefer to ignore it. The Buddhist view is that we are all dying at various speeds. It seems that the acknowledgement of impermanence brings more … Continue reading The most important day is Today!
We are creatures of habit. Apparently a surprising amount of daily life is dominated by robotic unconscious habits. Without sufficient awareness and conscious intervention these patterns tend to be reinforced over and over again. Repeating negatively established belief patterns and habits from childhood may attract relationships or other situations in life which perpetuate a negative … Continue reading
Emotional fire!
Buddha statues all over the world give the impression that yoga and meditation will bring a sweet smile of tranquility. The inconvenient reality is that inner peace isn't always easy to achieve as long as unresolved negativity like frustration and anger continue to bubble up to the surface. Some people welcome this challenge while others … Continue reading Emotional fire!
The place I love to be
There is no doubt that breath is vital for life. Cells start dying within minutes without oxygen. But somehow we live without giving attention to this paramount body function.

The truth is we are constantly progressing (even if it's two steps forward one step back) and becoming better and better in what … Continue reading Perfect
Broken Heart
Broken hearts seems to be part of life. I remember my first broken heart when I was 18. The perfect romantic world which I had constructed in my mind's eye was suddenly destroyed. All at once I found myself with shallow breath, standing on the ruins of my perceived idealism. I was frozen for a … Continue reading Broken Heart
Meeting with the Soul
Yesterday my muscles were hurting after intense practice but I know when I skip yoga even for one day then my Soul hurts. I miss the meeting with Higher Consciousness which yoga brings.

New day, New Life!
To everything and everyone I lost or left behind, thank you for setting me free! To everything and everyone I have, you are Love in my Heart! I don’t like to waste too much time and energy reevaluating my life in the past. I was there, learnt it and moved on. My nature prefers to … Continue reading New day, New Life!
