It’s Purple!!!
Well, I have been talking about it for almost a year or more now. With the finishing of my 500hr yoga teacher training, I decided it was time. Plus, it coincides with my 41st birthday and time for me to start living up the midlife crisis period, right? There are not many hair stylists I…

Sutra 3.9
3.9 Nirodha parinama is that state of transformation of mind where it is permeated by the moment of suppression which appears and disappears between incoming and outgoing samskaras.
