Isha back on Care2: Forget Vacations and Staycations: How About a BEcation?

The vacation. The high point of the year, the oasis of freedom in a desert of routine. Vacations make the monotony of the mundane more bearable, shining a light on the horizon we can look forward to.

We imagine our perfect week of bliss. The white sand. The transparent ocean. The freedom to do nothing at all. (Read More)

Isha on Huffpost: Healing Addictions

When we think of the word addiction, we usually think of drugs or alcoholism. Many of us may think that we are not addicted to anything, yet modern society in general is full of addictive behaviors. Anything we use to distract ourselves is a form of addiction. In fact, all addictions stem from the need to get away from what we are feeling, to numb the pain, the emptiness, the disillusionment. Maybe we use the television or the internet to get away from ourselves. Maybe we open the fridge or light a cigarette whenever we feel anxious. The form the addiction takes will vary, as may the level of obsession, but that inner feeling of discontent is the root of all addictive behavior...

Testimony from Sweden

About two months ago I downloaded the movie and started using the four sentences that Isha teaches, right away. At first I thought I had to translate them into my own language Swedish, to make them truly effective - but how I tried, I could not find a formulation that felt good, was smooth and strong. So I just went along with it in english, and about two weeks later noticed that my interaction with people was changing. I was so much more relaxed, open, unfearful, there was no reservations, no critical feelings but much more joy! And later still, I opened up to my own creativity, very naturally and found that instead of longing, dreaming, beeing frustrated and full off anxiety- I was actually DOING! And there was no drama in this, it was all so very easy and joyous.

I am 55 and have been "conditioning" myself since I was about 18 - and I have never experinced anything so freeing and powerful. My creativity has always eluded me, like a hidden gem, gleeming at the bottom of a well. In periods I have been there, close - but always full of doubt and fear. And now I feel I could acually pick it up, and embrace it - not watching it but beeing a part of it. Or it in me.

I am deeply thankful for this.

Please take this to Isha.

Why Walk When You Can Fly? An online introduction

Dear friends,

Well, I've been working hard on the finishing touches of a special 5 part course Isha has prepared for all of you, including extracts from her new book, Why Walk When You can Fly?, to be released in November through New World Library.

enjoy...

with love
