Purposeful Presence

-

By Jayden Kyryluk

Breath for the sake of breathing. Play for the sake of playing. Sing for the sake of singing and dance for the sake of dancing.  

In everything that you do, do it for nothing but itself. Laugh for the sake of laughing and cry for the sake of crying. Do it for no one but yourself. Do everything that you do fully, without inhibition. Do it as if it is the only thing that matters. Not for the future, not for the past; right here, right now.  

Love for the sake of loving. Live for the sake of living. 

All is found within itself. Do it, for it. That is the present moment.

It’s Time to Move

By Taegan F I’m sure everyone has heard the term “manifesting.” It is widely used as interpreted in different ways. I see it as cause and effect. A ball drops, it bounces. You put water in the freezer, it freezes. You dream of getting a promotion, so you work hard and earn it. You think certain thoughts, therefore you start to feel and act aligned with those thoughts. You must not only think, write things down, and visualize, you need to ACT. Action is the number one thing in making something come to life, but where does it all start? It begins with desire. That feeling of intrigue and excitement. It will start to consume your thoughts until you have no choice but to act and immerse yourself in the world of this desire. A lot of the time our childhood interests light the path to what’s important to us. I remember being young and being so enamoured by photographs and cameras. Seeing pictures on the family computer and being so curious how people could take such vibrant and quality photo...

Breath In, Breathe Out

-
By Ben Puchniak Give yourself space to breathe, think, recycle and discard thoughts. Find the time and space once a day to recharge your mental landscape and de-clutter. So many of us go through the day without taking a minute to breathe and stop the process of overthinking. We let our thoughts and worries compound and eventually, they weigh us down. Having time and space to myself are the two most important constant aspects of my life. This means clearing a small amount of time in the day to be with yourself in a space that is comfortable for you. It could be in a park, in your bedroom, in the car or at a coffee shop; the goal is a stable mental state for a couple of minutes. This space to think can be considered meditation or reflection, but it doesn’t have to be. Find the time to sit and run over whatever is at the top of your consciousness–think about your worries–but don’t let them take over your train of thought. Think of them as problems or challenges to be solved, not as brick ...

The Stillness of Now

-
By Kyle Wilfer As a mountain manifests the silence between the words in an incarnation of grace and magnitude, the sheer chaos that pours out is met with a semblance of perfection. Just as our ego paints the canvas of the soul; a mountain invokes storms, houses wildfires, and harbors death and life. The duality of such grace is pure and just.  Allow me to see, but not to possess.  Allow me to hear, but not to react.  Allow me to taste, but not to want. Allow me to love, but not to desire.  Allow me to be in the world, but not of it.  Ah so, and that too. As yet another part of the sadhana arises at every moment, no goal but the power of now lingers in this heart. What shall manifest will be as is written.  Kyle's Bio: I am witnessing the promises and pitfalls of this incarnation and writing is the mechanism in which the witness can speak. Through my many travels I have come to some amazing realizations that have carried on to everyday life. Finding God in ...
