When I was twenty, and my family were business people, and I had disappeared to India and they were like, "What are you doing?" I had a good relationship with them, and it wasn't like a rejection or anything, but they couldn't understand why I was going to India.

I'm here, and I know that it's finite; I know that I'm not going to always be here.

Your experience is nutrition. You digest your experience and you grow from it.

Waking up in the morning isn't a choice, you know.

Our job with our digestion is to absorb nutrients and eliminate waste, and to not dwell on the waste - which is my issue with some of the pop American psychology masquerading as Yoga, by the way.

I like waking up in the morning when I don't have to get up and think about the next thing, and I can just be present with the feeling of being alive, I guess.

My degree was in Depth Psychology and Religion, so I can really speak directly about pop American psychology masquerading as Yoga.
