Power matters when free from any corruption of mind, gross or subtle. We need to develop our power rather than feel powerless, indecisive or exploitive.

This week’s theme is: Allowance and Confidence

The classes point directly to how these themes can come alive in our practice and understanding, looking at the personal,…
