As we come to the close of the year it is a great time to reflect and examine the changes we intend to make moving forward. Devi concentrates on four areas of intention to encourage; how you are relating to your personal intimacy, your professional life, the structure of your home, and your understanding of self and/or a specific topic. Consider taking the time to prepare for the change you want to see. Continued blessings to all of our listeners in the New Year. Thank you.

Today's episode explores one of the most important practices needed during this human experience.  As we all experience our individual journeys one of the most invaluable offerings available to share with one another is, “grace”.  This beautiful contribution allows for space, awareness, and forgiveness for others.  Devi shares a brief visualization exercise to practice when working on extending grace to those that may have hurt us.
