Asteriai (Nymphs of the Stars) - a spontaneous improvisation for solo chelys (tortoise shell form) replica ancient Greek lyre, in the profound and timeless ancient Greek Phrygian mode, (equivalent intervals as D-D on the white notes of the piano and misnamed the 'Dorian' Mode in the Middle Ages) in the just intonation of antiquity.

3 Beliefs That Restrict Abundance - David James Lees

Yoga Nidra is an age-old technique of lucid-sleeping which reduces stress and allows the body to heal.  Yoga Nidra means yogic sleep, however it is not sleep as we generally understand - it is to Awaken. The term Yoga Nidra is often used to describe the relaxation at the end of a yoga practice, Savasana. Yoga Nidra activates the senses and nervous system to affect much of the brain.  During the experience, different levels of the mind are explored: consciousness, subconsciousness, and super-consciousness.  During Yoga Nidra, you are guided towards a fully conscious state free of the habitual reactions to thoughts and emotions. The deep state of relaxation enables an introspective look at the patterns of the mind and the emotional bodies.

A philosopher of ecology, Joanna Macy’s path wound from the CIA to Tibetan Buddhism, to translating the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke. We take that exquisite poetry as a lens on her wisdom on the great dramas of our time: ecological, political, personal. Now in her 80s, Joanna Macy says we are at a pivotal moment in history — with possibilities of unraveling, or of creating, a life-sustaining human society.
