How The Seasons Affect Your Body.

I was blessed last week with the opportunity to teach at the Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat with many other wonderful teachers of Yoga, meditation and Ayurveda medicine. During one of the lectures, a student asked the teacher what he thought of coffee, whether it was good or bad. The teacher ...
