“When you are not swayed by the dualities of pleasure and pain, you are fit for freedom.”— Bhagavad Gita 2.14 Life unfolds through highs and lows. Moments of ease and moments of challenge arise again and again — not to trap us, but to be experienced. The Bhagavad Gita reminds us that pleasure and pain arise through our senses and our circumstances. They come, they stay for a while, and they pass. Freedom does not mean avoiding these waves, but learning not to be shaken by the

One of my favourite games to play is looking back, finding the very first moment of how it started when I feel I’ve reached something big or exciting in my life. I am very well aware that we don’t just “land” in certain situations; there is always a path that leads us there. But where did it start?

I feel so grateful for all the wonderful events and moments happening this month—with family, friends, and the people I lo

This month, we explore Aparigraha , the yogic practice of non-grasping, non-hoarding, and letting go.   Patañjali tells us in Yoga Sutra II.39 : “When non-grasping is firmly established, knowledge of the purpose of birth arises.” Aparigraha invites us to loosen our grip, on things, people, expectations, feelings, habits, old stories... and trust the natural flow of life. It reminds us that freedom doesn’t come from holding on, but from allowing. As we move through November,
