Yoga, in its truest form, is not merely about poses or breath—it’s a path of integration, connection, and liberation. While personal practice is foundational, the yoga tradition acknowledges that we do not walk the path alone. The role of sangha (community) and kalyāṇa-mitra (noble friends) is essential.

Sangha: The Sacred Community

In both yoga and Buddhist philosophy, sangha refers to a spiritual community—a circle of seekers who walk the path of awakening together. Traditionally, it meant the monastic community of practitioners, but in modern times, sangha has expanded to include any supportive group of people who are committed to living with presence, truth, and compassion. In yoga philosophy, where the journey inward can often feel solitary, sangha serves as the net that catches you, the mirror that reflects your true self, and the collective breath that reminds you: You are not alone.

Kalyā ṇa-Mitra: The Spiritual Ally

Noble friendship (kalyāṇa-mitra) is often the thread that weaves sangha together. Where one noble friend uplifts, a sangha amplifies. When you’re surrounded by others who are walking the path—not perfectly, but authentically—you begin to trust the unfolding of your own. As the poet Rumi said: "Be with those who help your being." Let your sangha be that refuge. Let yourself be that refuge for others.

The term kalyāṇa-mitra appears in ancient yogic and Buddhist texts as a noble or virtuous friend who supports your journey toward awakening. These friendships are not casual. They are intentional, supportive, and rooted in Dharma—the truth.

In the yogic context, a noble friend is someone who helps you remember your Svadharma —your own sacred path or true purpose. They are the ones who gently guide you back to alignment when you’re pulled off-center. Not by force or advice, but by standing in truth with compassion. Where the ego divides and competes, the kalyāṇa-mitra sees the unity in all things. They help dissolve illusion—not by correcting you, but by seeing the highest in you and relating to that.

In Gaelic, they are called Anam Cara: Soul friend or soulmate. In Celtic it refers to a deep spiritual connection with another person, where individuals understand each other without masks or pretenses. It’s a bond that transcends ordinary friendship, fostering a sense of belonging, an understanding, a clear seeing. They don't just cheer you on, they hold you to your truth.

A Simple Practice to Begin

If you're yearning for sangha, begin by becoming sangha. If you seek a noble friend, become a noble friend.

Be the one who asks deeper questions.
Be the one who listens without rushing in to fix.
Be the one who remembers the light in others when they forget.
And trust the sangha will find you. Maybe one person at a time. Maybe all at once. But always—right on time.

Maybe it's simply confirmation bias, but reading this article was helpful for me this morning. Perspective is a precious skill!!

What is your take in these 10 topics?

If someone brings up these 10 topics in a conversation, they're probably a high‑level thinker – VegOut

If someone casually brings up these topics in conversation, chances are their mind is wired for depth—not small talk.

It's been a week of stress and disappointment trying to relocate my website to a new host site. In hindsight, I think it would have been better to do the scheduler conversion separate from the relocation, but here we are...

Public Service Announcement!

In the grand scheme of life, this is not a big deal, but on a personal level, it's reeking havoc on my emotions!

LifesWork website is down for restructuring (not planned).
We have a new app and a new registration portal. The apple version of the app is available here:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lifeswork-yoga/id6747595596

The Google app is pending, as we hit a bit of a security protection wall (because of the same app name from our previous version.)

All you need to know is that we are OPEN and ALL are welcome. As space is limited, it's first come, first served.

You are also welcome to reach out to me directly to reserve your space (until our technology catches up to the pace of our lives!) Call or text 240.447.4435.

Please don't let technology keep you from practicing with us!!

I'm teaching a 12:30pm mini Strength practice and a 6pm Mindful Movement practice today! I'd love if you joined me!

There is a lot going on behind the scenes right now at Life'sWork, all dedicated to supporting your self-care!!

One example of some of my mental breaks from the technology challenges in a website transition and system upgrade was some play time with AI:

I asked it to create a logo for my yoga therapy studio including a tree and a bicycle. This is what it gave me. It makes me wonder if AI knows of my bike accident that got me to yoga in the first place!!

Needless to say (I hope!) we won't be using this for any studio promotions or marketing, but I really enjoyed a good laugh!😂😂😂

Anyone want to try riding this bike???
