PS! I need to overhaul this site but my WordPress abilities are so limited. I have a class coming up at the local community college and I hope to resolve this. I NEED to collaborate resources and links and credit all of my teachers and inspiration. Thank you for your patience as I humbly try to express and extrapolate on this very urgent NWOm concept. Thank you! Namaste. Om Tat Sat. I am that I am.
“Om Tat Sat"
Om is the vibration of the universe; cosmically, ummutably, divine. It resides in each one of us, connecting us all. It is the essense of the Supreme Absolute Consciousness.
Tat is 'that' or 'supreme reality'
Sat 'that which is good'
"Om Tat Sat" = Only good really exists
The opposite word 'asat' implies evil is transient and therefore not ultimately real. No act or intention can add to spiritual growth if it is faithless and is there for unreal; it cannot have meaning either in this world or the next.
The Bhagavad Gita, introduced and translated by Eknath Easwaran

Yoga and Free Movement in the Wild
August 9, 2024
Yoga is so fabulous because you don’t need any gear to get started. Sure a yoga mat is really nice and practicing in a studio is great, but practicing yoga with some free movement and meditation in the wild is truly a connective and personal experience that allows you to really go inward and feel the dance between your soul and nature. I am posting yoga/movement destination videos on my NewWorldOm YouTube and www.newworldom.com. Some of these videos will have no vocal cues. You can put on your own music and follow along or browse through for some ideas for your own free-form practice. I will also make instructional videos with cues as well as some videos of all the fabulous things we do around here to connect with self/others/world and stay off devices and the psychotherapy chair.
The NoName granite slab is one of my favorite secret places. It’s right off the No Name trail in Glenwood Springs. You scramble down the hill to these huge slabs of granite with the creek running over it. This is also the main water source for our city water. Pure, spring water. I show up with my tripod, pop on my headset and enjoy being transported to that mental space where time sort of fades away and I just tune-in to what the body/mind/soul needs. I like to start a yoga/dance/meditation practice with movement.
Surya Namaskar, lunges, warriors, triangle, pyramid, shoulder and neck rolls. Movement builds in intensity at times until the body feels fatigued and then the body will ask for more yin stretching. Sometimes there may be a breakthrough or realization in the mind or body during practice and meditation becomes appropriate to absorb whatever experience you are having. This is a practice to tune-in. The more we do, the more we feel like bending and breaking rules. There really are no rules. There are no constructs. We are in the business of breaking those downs. We are not concerned with boundaries.
Colorado has so many beautiful places to explore and it’s fun to just tune in to what the soul is craving in that moment. Or find stillness. Being out in nature, these activities we do; the hiking, the yoga, the biking, the sitting still in the grass; each moment we are in these spaces is an opportunity to pay attention to detail.
During the practice, we’re directing our focus to any tight spaces and really bringing our awareness and attention to these places so we can release anything not serving our bodies and keeping us from feeling our 100% best. We’re practicing some backbends, wide leg stretching, surya namaskar sequences, and various meditation postures with abundantly flowing water behind. To see ourselves in these moments and allow them to happen with detachment and non-judgement while giving ourselves permission to let go of anything not serving us so we can progress to our true higher selves.
The yoga, or asana branch of yoga, is to purify and refine the body so it is a worthy vessel of housing your immortal soul. Another of my favorite descriptions of yoga is that of a “comfortable seat”. The purpose of having this flexible, strong body, free of blockages, is so that the yogi can sit in comfortable meditation for long periods of time. The mediation is to achieve samadhi or ultimate bliss/union with supreme conscious/total and absolute freedom of mind. So, we do all the body work to sit still. We still the body. Then we still the mind. Then we still the soul. When the soul is in that absolute still space, it is the total objective observer of itself. In this place, everything is revealed.

Light in Everyone
July 27, 2024
I see the light in everyone. It’s everywhere. It’s in everything. Everything is changing so rapidly. Can you feel it? It feels like it’s sucking in particles and light; thrusting itself to the forefront of awareness and demanding attention. I hear whispers and allusions to it everywhere. The awakening. Love is the only thing that is real and our true purpose on the earth. The only path to salvation and ultimate bliss in this world and may be the key to entering the next, according to many sage spiritualists and gurus.
I’m not sure how others have gotten to this space. The journey must be different for everyone. But the end realization is the same. I am perfect. You are perfect. We are all perfect. We are all pure, love and light beings and perfect in our creation. Anything else we carry are distortions. Unreal, fabrications of our own creation. Circumstances, pain, suffering, violence, judgment, afflictions we may attribute to an outside source, but our reactions to and embodiment of those distortions are of our own doing. And we can all undo them!
It’s all in your head. You are manifesting your world, your reality. The ultimate gift you can give yourself, which you will then give to others and the world, is love. When you give this out into the world, you will get it back in multitudes. The light will shine through you and reflect through everyone you encounter. We allow the gratitude, empathy and compassion to flow through us and we will heal the world.
Loving yourself means accepting yourself and forgiving yourself. It means stopping the judgement and dissolving the ego. You can laugh at yourself. Your mistakes are no big deal. You’re beautiful! When we are able to stop the judgement on ourselves, we stop judging others. When we learn to forgive ourselves, we readily forgive others. When we exude this energy, we liberate others to trust and shine their light as well. It spreads like a fire through humanity.
When someone acts out of anger or fear, it is because of their personal distortions. Understanding this can trigger compassion and love because that person is suffering. Because we can see the light, we can see clearly. It is our practice to simply observe these moments with clarity and composure. In our common perfection, we see that divinity in even the most distorted beings and we forgive and send light to the darkest places. It is the great work.
It is a practice. We are unlearning a lifetime of societal messaging, advertising, competition, gossip, movies, culture, brainwashing. We are conditioned to compete against each other. Embodying nonjudgement is a practice. Observation is the goal. We observe self, we observe others and we observe the world around us. We are all marvelously different, yet fundamentally the same. The diversity is a celebration of infinite possibility and freedom of expression. The observation that someone is doing it differently, someone looks different, someone expresses themselves differently. It’s all amazing!
We are all one and humanity and the world pulse with the energy that we send into it. If everyone dives into self with self-knowing, self-acceptance, self-forgiveness, and self-love, it will feed into the energy of every being on this planet. The vibration of the planet is elevating. Can you feel it? The only true peace that can exist in the mind, body, spirit complex on this earth is through love. An existence of acceptance, contentment, gratitude, compassion and love is the only way. Nothing else will lead to ultimate bliss.
Feel those good vibes rising. Give in to the light. Release and let go anything that doesn’t serve you, anything out of your control, anything contributing personal distortions and live free. See the light in yourself and see the light in everyone. It is your sacred responsibility to free your own mind. Be free.
Om tat sat.

Embody the Guru
July 21, 2024
In Sanskrit, gu means “darkness” and ru means “remover”, meaning the guru is the remover of darkness. By aspiring to remove darkness, we can all journey towards embodying the guru in mind, body and spirit, and thereby revealing the true light and love that is our true selves and the true universe. We summon the guru within, our internal teacher, our pure, intuitive, luminous soul, to reveal our path to awakening and transcending this physical existence and multitudes of distractions and distortions. As we remove these obstacles of social constructs and acquired belief systems, we become more in touch with our true selves and can start to understand our true purpose in this life and our time on the earth.
Why is there so much suffering in our world? Why, after years of working towards goals that society imposed onto us, are we still unhappy and disconnected? What would happen in our lives If we could learn to listen to our true spiritual essence? We are living in a time of massive distraction and discontent, with spiritual ascension and realization pushed so far down our list of priorities that we spend most of our time running our hamster wheel of work, bills, material needs, material wants, social media, mindless dopamine-driven scrolling of our little polly pocket whirligigs, that we have become completely disconnected from our true purpose on this planet.
And what is this purpose? I believe you have to ask yourself that. What is your purpose? What is important to you and what is it that you are fostering and manifesting in this world? When you fine-tune your own internal compass and start to really pay attention to what resonates deep within, you can filter out the beliefs and judgments that are not your own. They did not come from you. They are not organic or self-actualizing in nature. Many of our societal constructs are aimed at creating competition between us. Who has the most? Who has the power? How am I better than the person sitting next to me? We compare and judge ourselves against everyone else and pit ourselves in competition with our fellow light beings on this planet. These distorted beliefs cause much pain and suffering for ourselves, each other, and the planet.
This brings us to Non-judgment. This is one of our most important tools to stop the chitta vritti (noisy mind) and bring ourselves and humanity into balance, peace and prosperity. As we go inward and cultivate self-love, compassion and empathy, we stop judging ourselves so harshly. Moving towards acceptance and unconditional love for ourselves and forgiving ourselves our own mistakes, we release our tendency to judge others and expectations. We actively practice forgiveness and empathy with others. As we empathize with others, we experience what they are experiencing.
We work towards understanding and compassion with others as much as with ourselves. We understand that we are all one and when we judge others we are operating within an unreal distortion that will continue to enslave humanity until we are ready to purify ourselves and become completely liberated. Only acceptance, non-judgment, peace and love are real and only that which is real will ultimately serve you, others and the universe.
The guru is the remover of darkness. Judgement perpetuates darkness and feeds into fear, anger and violence. Love will set us free. Self-love will liberate your mind and body. Love for others will liberate your soul. This will spread like a love fire through humanity and we will liberate this planet.
Namaste.
Om tat sat.
Om shanti shanti shanti.
