I have completed my 46th journey around the Sun. I feel so grateful for this life every day! As I reflect on my journey so far, I share this gift with you.  It is useful to reflect on what you've learned and gathered through your lifetime. These lessons are your practice and guide your way forward. These are some of the things I’ve learned along the way, in no particular order…

• Yoga is the best medicine.

• Appreciate nature and the elements.

• All phenomenon is impermanent.

• Love yourself and enjoy your own company and you’ll rarely be lonely.

• If you’re lonely… seek out friends and family. You’re never alone.

• The higher you fly, the harder you land, the further you can bounce back.

• Dance! Move your body!

• Respect and forgive yourself and others.

• If it’s hard, try harder.

• Pause and breathe. Relax.

• Don’t be so serious! Humor and laughter are essential to joy and peace.

• Appreciate art…in everything. Make art…out of everything.

• Be grateful and contented.

• There is only Now.

• Sometimes I’m the asshole in a situation. I apologize and learn. We all make mistakes it’s part of growth. I take responsibility for my behavior.

• Every sunrise and sunset are glorious.

• Travel light. Leave the baggage.

• There is always more to learn…

• Love with your whole heart and let go gracefully.

• Hydrate

• Speak your truth, but be willing to be wrong and adjust when new information arises.

• Listen more than you speak

• Stalk your fear... face it and conquer!

• Be kind.

• Trust your intuition. 

• Don’t take the opinions of others personally, while being open to their perspective. They may show you something about yourself or life that is useful.

• Travel the world. Experience different landscapes, lifestyles, cultures, languages, food, traditions...this is the only way to grow your perspective of life.

• Believe in magic and manifest.

• Never underestimate the positive power of enjoyment...chocolate, beer, good food, good friends, good times...all things in moderation, including moderation.

• Deal with your shit and let other people deal with theirs.

• The Four Agreements

• Perceived reality is a projection of your mind. It’s more imagination than real. We are in a virtual matrix and once you know, you cannot unknow.

• Enjoy the game and play vigorously!
