Dear Friends of True Yoga,

I have missed seeing so many of you over the past few months as we have all been going through a great deal of tranformation since the closing of the studio. I hope this message finds each of you awakening to positive beginnings with each new moment of your life. I am deeply grateful for all that has transpired over the past year and for the opportuntiy to cross paths and become connected with each of you. One of the most important elements for creating health and wellness is being blessed with the gift of Sangha in our lives. In English, the Sanskrit word, Sangha, means "the gift of spiritual friendship/community." It is my intention that through this blog we will have the opportunity to receive, expand and share the gift of Sangha in our lives with one another.

Since January 2003, I have published an e-newsletter every month for True Yoga. It has felt incredibly unusual to have written no newsletter for the past few months since closing the studio in October of 2005. Having written the newsletter for so long, I myself, even grew to find great support in the "What Comes to Mind..." section each month. So often, this section would serve as a prophetic life lesson for me. Every month I would allow my stream of consciousness to flow and then find (sometimes to my dismay and discomfort) that I would be given Divine opportunities to put the words I had written each month into practice in my life.

So, in an attempt to continue to inspire myself and others to "Awaken to Our True Potential physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually", I have decided to begin a blog. It is my intention to bring you the most advanced information on practices for living a healthy, well-balanced and joyful life. In this blog I will continue to expand on the teachings of Yoga. Though many of us are no longer sharing a daily Asana practice together, it is through the incredible 'inter'connectedness of 'inter'net technology that we have the opportunity to continue to grow, learn and be enlightened together in the practice of living a True Yoga Life on and off the mat.

As this blog grows and evolves you will have access to:
-Weekly inspirations and quotes
-Contributions from the most knowledgeable wellness professionals around
-A network and referral center for health & wellness products, professionals and services
-Announcements on True Yoga workshops and Yoga retreats/events locally and beyond
-Recommended reading material and discussions on books & articles
-The opportunity to stay 'inter'connected with a growing, supportive network of True Yoga friends around the world
-And the opportunity to make a difference one breath at a time

As we continue to expand our horizons and allow our Life Force to lead us in the direction of our highest good, wherever this journey may take us, may this online community grow to be an extraordinary network of friends supporting one other in awakening to our true potential for the good of all.

Shantih, Shantih, Shantih and...
Peace, Peace, Peace

Lokah Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu
May all beings everywhere be happy and free and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all.

Namaste!
