Wowza! This show is now in the TOP 3% GLOBALLY!!! Thank you so much for listening and for being a part of this sacred community. Moving up in rank is a win for us all!

As you settle into your meditation pose, take a moment for self-care. Attend inward. Notice any fog and gloom in your life, and practice accepting it completely. Recognizing things and experiences as they are opens the understanding of deep and natural beauty. Breathe, and open to the light that exists! Embracing all experiences strengthens resilience. Peace and equanimity can be found in every mood and weather. In closure, place a loving hand on your heart, and notice what it has to say to you today.
