It’s the end of class. You’re breathing deeply, surrendering the weight of your body into your yoga mat. Breathing in…and out. Letting yourself go.
Who doesn’t feel better after a yoga class? Yoga is the union of the body, mind and spirit. It stabilizes the nervous system, decreases blood pressure, increases flexibility and endurance, and opens you up in ways that you may not have imagined.

As we turn the door on a new administration we must also ask ourselves again where the realization of the dream of peace on Earth is really to be found if it is to be more than just a dream after all is said and done. We know now that the ultimate resolution of the seemingly eternal problems of humanity is not to be found in a battle between nations fought with weapons of mass destruction, nor in a war of words among politicians, nor in the battle of the sexes.
