My Body My Temple

Diseases like cancer come from repressed rage and diseases like diabetes come from repressed grief.  This is what my spiritual teacher said to a group of us in 2007.  It stayed with me for a long time, an ancient piece of wisdom that resonated with truth and with purpose. I also knew the remedy for both. In 2006 I went to Masala Mendhi Masti at the CNE grounds.  And that is where I came face to face with Laughter Yoga.  It was such asimple concept – laugh for no reason.  Laugh because it feels good.  Laughter is a human connector, a way to tap into creativity and love. I was hooked. ... [Read more of this review]

In April 2012,  Yoga Without Borders was nominated for an Inspire Award – Inspiring Community Organization. Part of my assignment for the Award was to write a 400-800 word essay on what inspires me.  For fun, I gave it a little spin.  I thought about my favorite superhero and wrote it from her point of view.  What do you think? I watched you grow up.  I’m the one with the blue star spangled panties, red bra, and bullet repelling gold cuff bracelets.  From my invisible plane I have been watching your lives unfold.  And I gotta say – you inspire me. As I thought of you this morning,... [Read more of this review]

“Where do you teach?” the answer surprises some and makes perfect sense to the rest.  “I teach online”.  The world is my studio.  I believe in the pairing of ancient technology of Yoga and Meditation and modern technology like social media.  It is intentional on my part and so I see it everywhere. As our consciousness expands the boundaries between us contract.  In this way our digital presence bends time and space.  I can be hanging out at home and simultaneously participating in an event somewhere else in the world, and tweeting and watching something on Youtube posted 30... [Read more of this review]

The Universe Provides Yesterday could have been a crappy day. By midday, I received feedback on opposite ends of the spectrum. Some of it was uplifting and some was just wrong (says my ego). The sum result was a gnawing in my gut that I have been letting myself down, not keeping my eye on my ultimate goals. I spent the rest of the day adjusting myself.  I took out my tool kit of techniques and teachings and reminded myself: Other people’s opinions are just that – other people’s opinions. How I let that land is up to me. 2.   I have a ton of things to be grateful for so... [Read more of this review]

Before you read any further – put your hands over your heart and take five deep breaths.  From this place of love and connectedness, write down five things that you feel absolutely grateful for.  Write from your heart knowing that no one will be reading your list except for you. This was the basis of Oprah’s LifeClass which I attended live in Toronto with my lovely sister, Sorayah.  It was a day of love, insight, inspiration, tears and lots of laughter. With a crowd of 8,500, the morning session was rocking.  Waking up early was effortless and the ticket was priceless access... [Read more of this review]
