Facial Acupressure

There is a reason why you came,
Although you may not realize that reason yet.

The art of awareness
Tuesday, April 8th, 2008As I was perusing the Spring 2005 issue of body & brain magazine today, I came upon an inspiring sentence written by Tara Kim, an instructor who is now in charge of the Sedona Mago Retreat Center, in response to a question about practicing Dahn Yoga during mentstruation.

Rise in Consciousness
Monday, April 7th, 2008I recently finished reading 3 books in the Celestine Prophecy series, up to the 11th Insight for those who know them.
