I’ve been extracted. I know it sounds funny But like a alien Spaceship invasion I’ve been sucked out of my world And dropped almost abruptly Into a new place where Accents are so strong I can not understand A language that appears To be my own. I’ve been abducted From all that I know In order to entertain Southern hospitality Farms and extreme heat And there are times When the little bits still Left of myself miss The smog, mice And frequent hollerings Of a mad taxi driver “Move the Fuck out the way” Honk, Honk-- loudly With banishes That are not the sound These aliens make Where they drive snail slow In an attempt to get somewhere. But I recognize demon speeds I even know how to avoid them Or make them happen And it doesn’t bother me I can make it home safe there. But here Where the clouds Sun red as Pluto, moon, stars are always Beautiful and close and the rain Pounds like waterfalls and then Crickets I am clean and hot again And unsure I will ever make it Home The roads go on for ev...

Music and Yoga
Once after teaching a Vinyasa yoga class, I was directed by a fellow yoga teacher to consider the volume of my music during class. I was surprised that the teacher found the music too loud.

However, many yoga teachers strive to guide with the use of music and as this becomes a guide, I find it more important to consider the music we are plugging in and then adjust the volume. No one can say whether yoga is more effective with or with...
Go Forward with Gratitude
I am in the middle of devouring a great, scientific ditty on resonance along with a few other “granola” goodies that are expanding my consciousness. And, I recognize that this perspective is not for everyone. I present as I feel it is my duty, not because it is your responsibility. Feel free to read on. I also recognize we are living in a new time, and space feels differently-- accessible. There is more collective-fine tuning than ever before, and it is open to all who are ready to hear it. No judgment. There really is nothing to judge. The truth is LOVE is really the truth, though this is about the more scientific, earthly experience. To begin with what we know: The word “resonance,” is one from the days of, for most people, middle school. I did not really understand it then, especially now that I am reading this book. To be honest, most of what I am getting is that this is some really involved, miraculous stuff that allows us to be able to stand and walk and talk, and that...
