A Healing Temple Meditation is Our Gift to You
I'm curious though, have you been feeling a bit antsy? Personally, I've noticed that I've been a bit twitchy – like I'm in a skin that is just too tight for me. That I'm chafing at the boundaries of my current life. Hmm… what could it be?
Then I remembered that there's a big shift going on and it's affecting all of us…
The Best Way to Keep the Money Flowing is By Giving
In modern day spiritual traditions, money is recognized as a flow of energy and those who tithe have discovered that what you give comes back to you many times multiplied.

Welcome to Your Mind-Body
Many theories disucss the mind and body as two separate entities but not here at Sacred Physicality.
We know better.
We know that whatever you think affects both your mind and body and whatever you do with your body affects both as well. Therefore, it is much simpler to talk about the mind-body…
The unification of mind and body into the mind-body is great news for anyone who wants to make progress in their own development.
It means you can focus on your strengths in order to make that progress.
Yoga: Ancient Wisdom for a Modern World
Yoga is old. Really old. Thousands of years old. The sutras of Patanjali are considered the foundation of yoga knowledge. They were written in approximately the second century (BCE).

Lucky us.
How Are Your Energy Levels?
Many of us drag our way through the days: sleeping poorly, waking up tired, feeling that dreaded after-lunch lull and finally falling into bed far too late in the evening.
With a job, kids, parents, and volunteering all demanding our passion and time it can feel almost impossible to keep up.
We fuel our bodies with simple carbs and caffeine to give us quick energy and then require a few drinks to calm down at the end of the day.
Why are we so tired?
Applied Kinesiology: Listen to Your Body
Applied Kinesiology (AK) is an easily learned technique that allows the user to quickly 'tune in' to their body in any moment. Commonly, AK is used in decision-making and is thought to provide a mind-body connection where the mind is allowed to access the deep knowing and intuition of the body.
My favourite method is what I call body rocking. Once 'calibrated' or trained your body will provide a quick feedback mechanism for any decision-making you need.
Asking for Forgiveness
I'm reading David Smith's section on Forgiveness in Honoring the Sacred EarthHonoring the Sacred Earth (I know! I can't believe I haven't finished it yet, but that's another story…) and something about this prayer really got to me: "Almighty God who created everything grant us your forgiveness for the wrongs we have done in our lives and help us to forgive those who have done wrong to us…"
