26 Long Distance Relationship Ideas To Stay Romantic From Afar

Is it OK to flirt with other people? Dance with other people? Cuddle with other people? It is better to be honest about the fact that these desires will come up than to push them under the rug and risk going behind each other’s backs and hurting each other?...

5 Most Overused And Underexplained Yoga Terms

I had practiced yoga for years, under many different and amazing teachers, who’d instruct me to do these things, but neglected to tell me how.

I enthusiastically recommended IF, yet during a subsequent consultation he complained he was actually gaining weight.

It’s a daily exercise in finding faith—one in which we are both teachers and students, givers and receivers—that allows us to live from a place of greater compassion for ourselves and others.
