Why do people show up for one cause but not another? The answer lies in the threshold and entry point of awakening.

I broke up with Substack and got over my writer's block. turns out, it wasn't writer's block, rather performance pressure. social media can take away the joy of creating something meaningfully and keep us married to algorithms and the desire to go viral.

Sanskrit is one of the languages of yoga. And it will not have direct translations in English. Respecting yoga, is respecting the language and culture of its origin homeland.

As an Indian yoga teacher, using words from different Indian languages is natural for me. Deal with it. Stop with the cultural appropriation.

But also, this is a real example of how awkward it can be.

Decolonizing is not about convenience. It asks us to sit with discomfort and choose integrity over tradition. As we move through this week, remember that Thanksgiving is not a neutral holiday. It carries a very real history of violence and erasure.

If you are committed to healing, liberation, and decolonizing your practice, let this be a moment to pause. Ask what you are honouring. Ask what you are centering. Ask what you are willing to unlearn.

Visibility helps. Share if this resonates.

✨ Way of the Bodhisattva | December Journey ✨
“Where would I find enough leather to cover the entire surface of the earth?
But with leather soles beneath my feet, it’s as if the whole world has been covered.” — Shantideva

This verse reminds us that we cannot control the world, but we can transform how we walk through it.

Join me and a likeminded sangha this December for a month-long exploration of The Way of the Bodhisattva. Together we will reflect, meditate, and bring compassionate action into daily life.

🌿 For seekers, healers, and activists walking the path of collective liberation and inner transformation.

🕊️ Link in bio to join or register at bit.ly/wayofthebodhisattva. Let’s walk this path together.

On Gandhi Jayanti, I am reflecting on the idea of satyagraha and non-violence, ideas that have historically been at the heart of freedom movements across the world. From Nelson Mandela to MLK Jr to Standing Rock to the freedom struggle of the Tibetan people.

I learned about non-violent resistance from the women and children of the Chipko Movement who clung on to trees being felled for development.

Does non-violence have a place in today's world? Something to think about.
