When I look back on my 45 years, I’m not sure I ever fully grasped the concept of surrender unless it was forced on me. It wasn't until the challenge of divorce brought me to my knees that I began to understand the power of inner listening.

I first began travelling to India in 2004. Every time I travel to India the question arises – why? In all honesty, India is a complete mess. The beauty of India is the flow.

I first found myself in a Gurmukh Experience in 2008 on the banks of the Mata Ganga (Mother Ganges) River during the International Yoga Festival at Parmarth Niketan Ashramin Rishikesh, India – the birthplace of yoga.

SoulJour is a mindset. It’s the courage it takes to look in the mirror and uncover the veil.
