Satsang/Sangha
As I write this, on the last day of the year 2020, I’m grateful to be reflecting on what it means to be connected to community. In what felt like a rapid and head-snapping pivot from teaching in-person to teaching ... Read More...
Sadhana
I can’t exactly pinpoint when my journey along a spiritual path began, but I can recall that I had moments of awe and inspiration from a young age when in nature. I was lucky to have a middle-class family who would go ... Read More...
