By Sura On January 23, 2013 · Leave a Comment

We all feel stuck at some point in our lives.  We make New Year’s resolutions, talk about it with friends, even get excited.  Sometime later, our enthusiasm fizzles, and you wonder what your new years resolutions even were.  Life doesn’t change much.  You still feel the same.  You have the same problems and the same [...]

7 Ways To Practice Mindfulness in the Technology Age

I think we’ve all experienced that awkward moment, when you’re speaking to someone – and the cell phone rings.  For a moment one person glances at their phone, while the other wonders if they’re about to be trumped by a phone call.  No one likes being [...]

Forgiveness for Sandy Hook

By Sura On December 20, 2012 · 1 Comment

Outrage erupted in light of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting. Outrage against gun control and the NRA.  Outrage that anything like this could ever happen.  I was bombarded by news, facebook posts, petitions, threats, etc.  It was an emotional mixture of sadness, compassion, mutual support, anger, action … at one point I had to [...]

The feeling of tension and frenetic [...]

By Sura On November 8, 2012 · 14 Comments

I was working on Wall Street when I first started practicing yoga.  During that time I suffered from severe neck and back pain, so I thought yoga would help me.  Being a novice at the time, I had no idea what the different styles of yoga were. Perhaps it was karma or a twist of [...]

The Dog Who Likes to Meditate

By Sura On October 31, 2012 · 1 Comment

My dog BeBe is pretty cute.  When we go for walks, people ohhhh and ahhh over him, thinking that he’d like to be cuddled and coo’ed over.  To their dismay, when they try to pet him, he’s unreceptive.
