I am a woman with a strong persistent Soul. A Soul that is always seeking, peeling away the layers, revealing the Light within. I admire her strength and persistence.
This has not been an easy journey, but the challenges I have moved through have become the great opportunities of my life…and I would not have done anything different. I love who I am and who I have grown to be.
This heart, mind, body and soul have been cultivated, molded and shaped into who I am today through many challenges: physically, financially, relationally, and emotionally. Through it all I remained disciplined in my spiritual practice of daily prayer. The past 5 years I have studied Traditional Yoga with a Master, James Amarish Caruso. He has taught me and continues to teach the entire Science of Yoga, which is the science of balance and harmony…the science of Self-Mastery. Traditional Yoga as taught by Rajyogi Caruso is the entire Eight Limb Path of Patanjali, every component of Yoga is essential for the true path to Self Realization…the journey of the Soul.
I have faced tremendous and multiple trials these past two years and my world as I knew it was completely dismantled. Then I broke my foot which forced me into hibernation on December 18th 2006. I could not stand, only crawl on all fours and use a walker to hop around. The healing slow, painful, and exhausting. I went from being a very independent woman living on her own, to being completely dependent on everyone for everything except my daily routine. I call my apartment ”The Cave” as it is built underground and has only one window in the bedroom and glass sliding doors in the living room , which thankfully overlook the magnificent Hudson River. I am most grate that the mouth of the cave has this view!
Sitting in a wheelchair in the Emergency Room of St. Lukes/Cornwall Hospital I knew this was my crucible. I made the conscious choice to turn this great challenge into opportunity… to Be Still and Know that God will provide.
I know all of this is a result of my creation but this has also been for great reason, great lessons, great learning and this journey I share to inspire each of you so that you too may Know that you are the master of every moment of every day. I choose to live in a constant state of Gratitude, of Surrender, of Allowing, of Receiving. How can God provide for me if I do not ALLOW others to help, if I am not open to RECEIVE that which He intends?
Life is all about choice…how do I choose to move through this moment…think about it…how empowering! As Rajyogi teaches…I am the creator of my life…and what a wonderful life it is!
Sounds like you’ve discovered a great philosophy for life. Enjoy your journey!

excellent
I’m on a layover in Edinburgh, Scotland. Love the site and music. Wish you luck on your journey. I bookmarked this. Maybe I will let the music play while I sleep here.
Your website gives a peaceful feeling. The things you say are simple and i believe the truth is simple yet it doesn’t seem to be so at times.
