Happy Little Things

We do this thing over here in the Western world. It's kinda our thing. Our trademark. We take something that is deemed healthy and push it to an extreme. (Ringing any bells?) We take a giant leap of logic in which we decide if 5% of something is "healthy", then 1000% must be incredibly super duper HEALTHY. The list of things that fall under this category is varied and one item you will find there is yoga. Yoga is, indeed, wonderfully healthy for the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies. It has skyrocketed in popularity over the past few decades (with...

When it is a person's first Akashic Records session with me, I always start by advising them to take notes.
