The Day We Share How Much We Love Each Other

Anatara Buckley
That’s a mouthful — “the Day We Share How Much We Love Each Other”… As I write this, my heart is filling. I can feel the Love bubble up through my chest and into my throat as my head expands into the space of Love all around me. I’ve been thinking about Christmas. For so many years, I have wanted to be able to express what it means to me. Is it Love? Is...

Acceptance, That’s the Real Love

Kat Robinson
As most of you know, when I was young I had a horrible disease that nearly took my life. I was very ill for a very long time. It was such a profoundly changing time of my life. What was once a happy-go-lucky, easygoing kid became someone who was frightened and insecure in every aspect of my life. I struggled every day with fear, needing to hold on tightly to everything external...

Pain and Love – potentially troublesome experiences

Neil Pearson
I submitted a proposal yesterday for a workshop at the 2013 International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) conference. As you would expect, I am hoping to provide an interactive workshop about yoga and pain. The title of the presentation is “How much pain is okay in Yoga?” In the proposal description I wrote something like this, “…pain, like love – another potentially troublesome human experience – is often misunderstood.” I wrote...

You are aware of the ‘plan’ for the pod that reveals itself as each moment presents itself. You are aware that when required, you will decide to rise to the surface of the water and take...

Communicating the Dolphin Way

Anatara Buckley
Talking about the Unseen What is it about the dolphins that we find so irresistible? They look so beautiful, they glide with such effortless grace, and they demonstrate their freedom simply by living wild in the sea. Dolphins live a life unencumbered by things or by written laws…the choices they make are based on that which is required by the moment. How they communicate the truth of the moment to one another is...

What the Dolphins Have Taught Me

Anatara Buckley
I have just returned from a glorious two-week initiation with pods of wild dolphins in the Pacific waters of Hawaii’s Big Island. The experience was an initiation into a world so divine that it defies many of the ‘laws’ and standards that we tend to accept as normal in our human world. Learning from the dolphins is not like going to class…it is instead an experience of total immersion in a...

Watching Things Change

Anatara Buckley
The world as we know it is changing in so many ways… This flux is not new. The flow from one experience to another is part of the timelessness of our existence. That we have changing needs, changing habits and changes in friendship, career and location is all normal. And yet it feels as if there are bigger changes afoot all around us right now. When we feel a new and dynamic form...
