Music of Jesse Kalu |
"If you ever spent quiet time
in the vast empty space of the southwestern desert, you will understand
the essence of Jesse Kalu's meditative journey. One in Spirit brings
the sweet sounds of nature alive through Kalu's mystical hand-made
bamboo flutes. The wind, water, whales, dolphins, hawks & eagles
gently call out to your spirit, slowing your mind and inviting you
into the ancient wisdom of nature's heart. The healing powers of this
recording gently vibrate into the center of your soul to melt away
the tensions of your mind & emotions. The flow of the flute melodies
transports your spirit to the magical red rocks of Sedona, where this
sound therapy was inspired & developed. Peace, tranquility and
transcendence is the experience that One in Spirit offers." Michael
Silveria, Whole Life Times

and hands.

Wray Metaphysical Art Originals |
A meditation in pictures, colors, shapes, and forms.
Meditative Art.
Joseph Polansky, noted Astrologer, describes Lisa
Wray's Meteaphysical Art as "a mediation in pictures, colors,
shapes and forms. The whole effect engages both the mind and the heart
and lifts us into another level. Many of her works are of the mandala-style
-- hieroglyphs of wholeness -- nature forms seen in a new way. But
many are reminiscent of Dali and his surrealism -- we are in another
space, where nature forms and human forms coexist and tell a dream
like story".

| YogaHub |
The team at YogaHub is composed of students of all
levels who have been inspired by yoga. "At YogaHub, it is not
our intention to tell you how or when to practice yoga, or even to
promote a specific school or form of yoga. Our intent is to gather
the information and let you decide what is best for you at this time
of your life. We understand that each person's practice and journey
are unique.
"As practitioners, we realize that yoga studios
and classes may not be accessible for many individuals who are interested
in learning more. We also understand that there are individuals who
are afraid to take the first step in public. We hope to address this
through the creation of our online community.
"We want to foster a community spirit and encourage
everyone to participate by sharing information, starting dialogues,
hosting teleconferences, reviewing products, and offering inspirational
writings of individuals who would like to share their own practice
of yoga - all while having fun and laughter along the way!"
