Theme of the Month: Empower
At the end of 2021, we asked our students to share their intentions, questions, and needs for the upcoming year with us. Out of these intentions, we shaped 12 themes to guide our community throughout 2022. Each month, a member of the Delight community will share their thoughts on this theme from the heart. We invite you to join our special classses Monthly Satsang and Ayurveda Sangha for more inspiration, connection, and spiritual direction.
Please enjoy this month's theme, 'Empower', written by Adela Serrano.
