Dharma traditions from around the world teach us that suffering is both inevitable and solvable. Yoga Sutra 2:16 states, “Heyam dukham anagatam: The suffering which is yet to come is to be avoided.” This Sutra begs the question: In what ways can a person educate themselves, and is it the sole responsibility of each individual (as opposed to society?), to not only prevent their future suffering (such as preventable lifestyle diseases), but also thrive in wellness and achieve optimum health? What is the definition of optimum health? Is thriving in wellness measurable? Why has it become the sole responsibility of the typical modern adult to manage and maintain their own health? What is the responsibility, if any, of one’s society to support the health of its individuals? How can a person, within the context of modern culture and lifestyle, responsibly and reasonably make a shift from merely surviving to a state of optimum health?

Do you frequently refer your patients to Yoga and Meditation?

My Ojai Yoga and Self-Inquiry retreats are for anyone interested in exploring the intersections of modern-day postural Yoga, what embodiment, presence, and alignment mean in the context of relationship with oneself and others, and the ways in which self-inquiry might inform living a moral life.
