I discovered the Breathe Easy Deck while looking for meditations and affirmations to share in my yoga classes. This little deck is perfect &#8211; each of the 36 cards contains a theme, such as compassion, meditation, floating, sacred space or balance, as well as an affirmation related to that theme. For example, the &#8220;openness&#8221; card [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
If emotions fell on a sliding scale from sadness to happiness, with neutral in the middle, I think my natural state would fall somewhere on the sadness side. It&#8217;s not intentional, though. I do try to be optimistic, and sure, I can have fun and be happy, especially with my friends, family, and pets&#8230;but at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My mom is a big believer in mantras and chanting. Every day she gets out her mala and chants for whatever we need (lately it&#8217;s been the removal of obstacles&#8211;I hope she&#8217;s chanting to Ganesha!). Anyway, in order to facilitate her knowledge, she purchased a really cool audiobook about the power of chanting. It&#8217;s called [...]]]></description>

Years ago when I worked at a bookstore, one of my responsibilities was to organize the New Age section. This was where all the tarot and divination, wicca, and astrology books were (and still are) kept, and it was a fascinating section. Of course, the trouble with being responsible for that section meant I frequently [...]]]></description>

Know Your Food
Eating Close To The Earth
The food we eat is a multidimensional aspect of our lives. Food provides us with the energy that enables us to grow and prosper. Yet it can be, and frequently is, much, much more. [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m not much for praying, but the Prayer of St. Francis really speaks to me. I find it so beautiful and moving, and I love this version of it.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;

Within the space of about six months, I&#8217;ve had 3 seriously ill cousins, my grandfather passed away, I got really sick, I injured my back during a bad training session, and I&#8217;ve been having some problems with my job.

Shifting With Nature
Change Of Season
In today&#8217;s world, office jobs and supermarkets have made it possible to work and provide for ourselves and our families regardless of nature&#8217;s cycles. While most of us no longer depend directly on nature&#8217;s seasons [...]]]></description>

This was my horoscope for the day at MySpace (yes, I finally caved and set up a profile). I really like it; it&#8217;s apt.
Regardless of your religious beliefs, take time from your workday to get in touch with your spirituality. It&#8217;s important to find a balance between your current obligations and your need to create [...]]]></description>
