The state of being in great health, and continually striving to attain all of your goals.
2021 in Mind, Body, and Spirit
That fresh new year energy hasn't faded on me yet, so I'm hanging onto it for as long as it's willing to stick around. We could spend some time reflecting on 2020 here, but in the spirit of a clean slate, can we not? I'm keeping my eyes on what's around me and what I want to see and create in the future.

An Exercise in Integration
While standing, place your feel hip width apart, turn your toes in until your feet are parallel, it will feel slightly pigeon toed (very pigeon toed to me!). Raise your knee caps, tighten your thighs, pull your navel to your to your spine, lengthening your lower back. Raise your shoulders, press them to the wall behind you and lower your shoulder blades onto the back of your rib cage. Externally rotate your arms so that your palms hint forward. Keeping your chin parallel with the floor, slightly move your head toward the wall behind you and lift through the top of your head. Relax your jaw. TaDa Sena!!

Encouraging the Elevation of Wellness
As we enter this new year following the woes of the year passed, I think it's important to consider what really promotes wellness for each of us individually. As I see it, each of us truly live in alternate realities. Now, one might argue against this and propose that we all live in the same reality, but I'm suggesting that our personal realities are based on more than our outer conditions. You and another person, for instance, may both be in a pitch black, soundless room, but does your reality, your total experience of that room, not differ from that of the other person based on your internal perception of what occurs in your mind and body in that moment? You might be comfortable; they may feel unnerved. Objectively, it's simple: you both are simply in a room without external stimuli, but, subjectively, the potential difference of internal circumstances strikes me as two unique individuals experiencing different realities at the same time. I often see others being primarily affected by the events going on around them, and, depending upon what those occurrences are, that experience of life can range anywhere from very favorable to very miserable. My point is that, upon reflecting this past year and even my whole life up to now, it's becoming increasingly prudent to pay just as much, if not more, attention to what is going on within myself if I'm to experience a more enjoyable reality, and the intent of what I'm writing here is to inform anyone reading of what my reality consists of on a daily basis in my endeavor to reach for a more enjoyable existence in this perpetual flow of countless experienced moments.

Being Better
The year 2020 changed the way we lived, worked, learned – practically every aspect of how we function as a society. I can only imagine historians trying to fit this past year into a textbook for future generations to learn! With that said, I feel like I can speak for many of us when I say that we have emotional whiplash from the amount of changes we have had to assimilate in short periods of time. It kind of felt like every time I got my head around one change another was just over the horizon. I think this has left many of us feeling as if the very foundation on which we stand is shaky and unstable.

Have You Ever Checked Your Heart Rate?
Heart Rate. The other day, I was climbing one of the small hills in Madurai (located in the state of TamilNadu, India) along with my friends. While a few of us could climb with easier efforts, a few struggled a bit, with their breathing strained. Only with adequate breaks, by catching up with their breath, they could climb. Of course, the hill had good and well-structured stairs to climb.

In The Beginning
From the time I was a kid, I always wondered where I would be by the time I reached 21. Well, here I am, a 21st century junior in college in the midst of a pandemic, and I never thought that I would be on the path of spiritual awakening that I am; working through my childhood traumas, releasing fears that had been keeping me stagnant and then some. Not to mention living through a pandemic, and the toll it has been taking.

The Dualistic Nature of Wellness Leaks
Our awareness of the areas of wellness is essential to finding fulfillment in our lives. Lack of awareness is nothing more than neglecting responsibility from a certain area or areas of wellness. This can appear in a variety of forms. It can show up financially by not checking our bank accounts because we are afraid of what we might find. It may emerge physically by not stepping on the scale or going to the doctor, because we are afraid to know what we feel is true. This awareness can even apply to spirituality by not checking in with ourselves or asking what deepest desires are. This is often because we are afraid of what we must do when we discover them.
