Hi Everyone, It’s taken me a few days be able to write this newsletter. In just over two weeks my family will be relocating to Florida. As you can imagine we are cleaning, organizing, purging, reminiscing, and mostly cherishing our last days here in this sweet town.  I taught my last classes for a while…

Hi Everyone, Please excuse the lengthy message this week but I hope you read it all. I am entering my final few weeks in Irvington and with that comes all types of emotions. Going through a major life upheaval can make us feel groundless and disconnected. I am working very hard to stay present with…

Hi Everyone, I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful weather. I certainly am! This past week I was working on a talk I am giving in a couple of weeks on Happiness & Joy so I decided to share a little bit with my classes.  This is a lofty topic. It really is the…

I hope you all had a nice week enjoying this spring weather. Over the past few weeks I have let myself physically get really run down and my body definitely responded with a reminder that I needed to slow down. After a few days of rest I feel totally back to normal and am excited…

I hope you all had a nice week and a good weekend celebrating the holidays. Last week I shared the third principle of Karma with my classes. It is truly one of the pillars of my life and I was reminded of it in several ways last week.  “There is no power on earth greater…
