Tuning In & Cultivating the Flowers of the Yamas
I absolutely love studying yogic spirituality because it always invites some light to shine into areas that I didn’t even realize were a bit dark. And it seems to do so in a way that feels gentle, invites opening, and is without blame or shame.
My upbringing in a strict Catholic faith often felt punitive and leaving me with the impression that I was unworthy, undeserving and in need of a major overhaul. This is not to say my experience was typical, it was simply my experience at that time in a very small town in a mid-west setting. So, I left. I left the small town, the religion of my upbringing, and the only way of life I’d known.
My transplant was to Arizona State University. The size of ASU at the time was about 30 times larger than the town that I grew up near. It was overwhelming and it allowed me to explore the anonymity that I so craved at the time.
Fast forward many turbulent years of adjusting and exploring and, yes, searching. I’ve found this blending of yogic spirituality with the essence of Christianity, sprinkled with other unifying faith traditions is what nurtures me. One of my passions is to share this in intimate small group formats. The format invites sharing and learning from one another.
