It is so difficult to not be affected by what is happening in the world, especially when we are deeply aware of how interdependent and connected we all are. We can feel small, scared, overwhelmed and helpless in such times of chaos. We might think to ourselves “What can I do, I am only one […]
I sense that most of us are aware that our brain, especially the rational part (i.e., prefrontal cortex) does not reach full development until age 25 or so, which implies, by default that until that age, we tend to operate more from the emotional parts, such as the amygdala. And, as our brains develop, the […]
Starting from the humble beginnings of celebrating happiness on Admit You’re Happy Day on August 11, 1999, Happiness Happens Month is now a whole month dedicated to celebrating what makes you happy! This movement is founded in the belief that what you focus on grows – energy flows where attention goes! Understanding that humans are born wired […]
When I was in college way back when, I remember hearing about the research that suggested when students nap during studying, they remember more about what they were studying or in other words, students improved their memory retention. This research flew in the face of what I observed most students doing instead – pulling all-nighters […]
What if somehow you could know what days were the best ones to move your intentions and manifestations forward by doing more?

Take a moment and ask yourself which of the following four statements reflects your belief about crying: Crying is healthy Crying is controllable Crying helps one feel better I hate crying Recent research reflects that your beliefs about crying reveal your attachment style. When I grew up, I got mixed messages from my family about […]
Each May, I feel it is so important to promote Mental Health Awareness month, as it is a belief of mine (backed by recent research) that when we support the health of the brain/mind, our bodies respond in kind. This year I would like to focus on the 2018 Children’s Mental Health Report from the Child Mind […]
As a Hatha yoga trained teacher under the umbrella of the Raja type of yoga, I am often asked if one style of yoga is better than another.
