Recently my teen was in the kitchen, making careless mistakes, dragging his feet, reacting, etc. So, I asked, “Hey bud, what’s up?” He grumbled that he was fine. He continued spilling stuff, forgetting the stove was on, wasn’t responding to reminders, so I asked him, “How are you feeling?” He went into a long explanation…

Remember Who You Are
For Christmas this year we celebrated virtually with the Brampton Meditation Centre with the theme Remember Who You Are. It is so simple, yet powerful, to just remember your innate self. To go back to the seed, the essence of your soul. Everyday I am recalling, reflecting, diving deeper to rediscover. I am opening myself…
Mapping the New Year
For many years the holiday time is busy with all householders more at home and each following their own unique schedule. They wish to take it easy while I have a whole list of projects that I have reserved for this time. This year however was different. Everyone was home all the time. Usually, the…
Inner Light
I see myself as a living diya. Ignited by the Supreme Light. The oil of truth, love, mercy, peace and power come pouring in. My light becomes stable, strong. It radiates everywhere. Unconditional, without limits, without boundaries. I stay here. Hold this feeling. As I move, I remind myself, reflect back to this image. Remembering…
Courage to be in Virtues
Feeling lost. Disconnected. A deep sadness. Feeling hopeless, I cry. So tired, yet I can’t sleep. I get an invitation to connect to my virtues. My inner light. I forgot about this light, my power.

I had expectations of him to behave a certain way,…

Free to Fly
When I was young I wanted freedom so bad. I thought freedom was going out with my friends, staying out late, having a part-time job. It wasn’t enough. I wanted more. Desperate to find my wings, I moved out to go to school. Finally, freedom. I thought having my own career as an educator was…
Finding My Inner Space
We have been asked to stay apart from friends, colleagues and even family. Many have found this challenging. Take a minute and journal what you experienced. Was there frustration, feelings of loneliness or did you enjoy some time to yourself? Some chose to handle this situation by connecting to others online whereas others felt pulled…
A Spiritual Love
Lately I have been interested in exploring spiritual love. A love that does not want from anyone or desire anything. A love that gives from the fullness of your heart. A love that bestows tirelessly. A love that forgives and holds no sorrow. A love that flows and is not owned. It is a love…
