In law of attraction our emotional vibrational energy attracts more experiences to match with that emotional vibrational energy.

Read MoreDelta brain wave states tend to be associated with deep sleep. They are the slowest frequency with the highest amplitude. Delta brain waves are present when we are in deep sleep.

Read MoreTheta brain wave state is associated with even more of a relaxed state, such as when we are falling asleep, and interestingly during early childhood.

Read MoreFor those of you who don’t know, I practice a type of yoga called ashtanga yoga. It’s a set series of postures in a specific order, so that every time you practice, you work on the same postures. It’s a very rigorous, challenging practice, and there’s always something to work on.

Read MoreOver here on the California coast, we get our warm weather in the early fall. Today we had an unusually warm day, and I happened to have the day off from work.
