One of the Grand-Daddies of all meditations is the “So Hum” one –– “I Am That” –– breathing in on “So” (silently) and exhaling on “hum” (silently). And that’s all well and good and ancient, but given that this has been one of the roughest weeks I’...

Rules don’t really apply anymore. Woke up at 4 am and after reading for a bit, realized it was time to get to work. Then, inexplicably, my website and email vanished completely around 6 am.   Not a happy moment, including one friend on the Face Place instant messaging me to let know his email bounced...

With the book launch, plus managing the Naples Design project, plus other creative Big Picture stuff, I’m constantly looking to upgrade everything in my bag of organizational tricks. And although I love the simplicity of the REMINDERS program that comes with my Mac, I’ve googled some other possibilit...

Today I was struck by –– and I don’t mean to oversell this but … – a stroke of New Age Genius. So much is happening that I needed to create some project boards to keep track of everything going on, but of course they had some Vision Board elements (how could they not?) But then I remembered som...

In all honesty, there are no monkeys involved in this blog post, although on two levels, I have been fascinated with the number 1000 regarding the unseen masses all day.

When I stopped teaching at the Laughing Lotus, I suggested they retire the slot I’d had for 9+ years –– Saturday @ 5pm –– as a gesture towards Retiring the Jersey. And today, I decided that it was time to eliminate from my wardrobe a key and vital element:  an Angès B pullover I’ve had since &#...

It’s been … an intense week. Seriously. And I have to say that I’m so so glad I rented Hansel & Gretel:  Witch Hunters. I know that it has a 14% (out of 100) rating on Rotten Tomatoes, however, the reviews from the people are strongly different. (Basically 80% on iTunes give it 4...

Well, I hope not, however, I just turned in a piece for MIND BODY GREEN entitled “7 Things No One Tells You About Being a Yoga Teacher.” The editor-in-chief Kerry Shaw is awesome, and even though they want their pieces to be 800 words, and I turned in 2700, it’s basically all good.  I cut...

So yesterday was the launch of DOWNWARD DOG and (I think) it was a spectacular success. Meaning, that I really have no idea what one is supposed to happen during the launch of an eBook.  It’s not something I’ve any cinematic references for or that frankly –– even though I know tons of authors –...
