March Meditation HERE It might be boastful to call it “The Social Event of the Year” but frankly it was. That is, Vlad’s birthday party celebration this past Sunday. Our favorite hipster coffee shop/micro-brewery (only in Bushwick!) volunteered to host it for him, and when the guests soared to ove...

Marginally less vacuuming. Honestly, that’s been the only silver lining I can think of regarding Malibu (Vlad’s best friend)’s absence this week. Mind you, nothing untoward has happened. Bobby and Neb, his parents, have gone on a family getaway to the Caribbean, which means Malibu is staying with ...

The consequences of taking a leap of faith are by definition unknown. I have no statistics, but I wonder if following the famed advice from naturalist John Burroughs––  “Leap and the net will appear” ––Has resulted in more broken bones than safe landings. I could easily have pr...

Jan Meditation HERE Free Workshop HERE As is often the case, sometimes when I’m writing about a topic, it surfaces in unexpected ways in my life.

We all love Green Light Synchronicity. I’m speaking of those Magic Moments when everything just seems to align together harmoniously, all in perfect timing. One of my favorite––and quite literal––experiences of this was several years ago when I taught a Thanksgiving Day yoga class. Although ...

To be honest, I’m still processing it all. (Although I suppose you could attach that statement to pretty much everything that’s ever happened to anyone, anywhere of any sensitivity.) Even so, I admit to being a little unnerved by events this week–– although I also do appreciate the synchronicity they...

I have mixed feelings about cliff hanger endings. Sometimes it’s just as Oscar Wilde wrote in The Importance of Being Earnest: “The suspense is terrible.I hope it will last.” And other times, as with a few recent Netflix series I love that may or may not be renewed, cliffhangers seem at best delib...

It’s certainly a fitting jab at my ego. As I’m musing about storytelling via the archetypes of the Hero’s Journey, I’m obviously focusing a lot on my own personal narrative. Simultaneously, Vlad and I completed our most intense photoshoot to date, capturing a ton of images we need for upcoming ...
