“Annie’s Song” by John Denver, is about sharing your love with another… we are here to share our lives with each other. Today as I walked in the hot sun of Los Angeles, Annie’s Song kept flowing throw and it was teaching me about living here in the present. It is hard to describe, so we use metaphors, parables, Koans, and stories to help share how this feels to live freely here… Enjoy. Share your love with your lover, kids,... Read more

Heat

Last updated on: April 26, 2014 at 3:25 pm By David Matthew Brown

I remember sitting after a hot yoga class on the bench outside of Modo yoga. There I was dripping with sweat, and feeling the cool the breeze brush up against my skin forming chills, I looked up and the sky was making it’s way from day to night as it was turning navy blue. My bare feet rested on the somewhat warm pavement as the sweat dripped around them and on them. I sat there, feeling refreshed from class, and... Read more

Darkness, The Great Mother Of Opportunity

Last updated on: April 23, 2014 at 10:25 am By David Matthew Brown

The mind loves to run to pleasure and dislikes pain, which is how the majority of most people react to fear. I embrace darkness. I embrace fear. Both are great teachers, they invite us inward to a deeper knowing of who we are. Jesus rose up in a dark cave, Buddha meditated in the caves India, and most people when you talk to them of their new found discoveries, their personnel journey, it all happened in the dark. The darkness... Read more

The Worthiness Of A Rose

Last updated on: April 11, 2014 at 11:48 am By David Matthew Brown

So when we pass a rose, most people stop, and admire the rose. Especially now, as we move into Spring, the smell is incredible. Lets look at the rose, the rose is growing in stillness, and it is perfect as it is. Because when you look at the rose you are acknowledging the WHOLE rose. Yet, when we meet with people, we don’t meet their wholeness. We show up with projections, stories, judgments, and defensiveness. Do we let this person... Read more
