My spiritual awakening began over two decades ago when I was competing as a powerlifter. I started going to Yoga three times a week to counteract the strain on my spine. The sport taught me valuable life lessons: 7 Powerlifting Principles.

The yoga instructor talked about “sending our breath” to different body parts during the class. I was lost—send my breath? But as I attempted to follow her guidance, things started to click.

Within three months, I noticed a remarkable change: I was calmer, more focused, and less reactive. The stress in my body seemed to melt away. Little did I know, the instructor had planted a seed of awareness in me.

It took another 15 years before that seed to started to sprout. Now, I realize the incredible potential we all possess, latent abilities waiting to be activated.

Physical fitness has been my pathway to spirituality, as the body is an extension of spirit. Jyotish helps us see our path with greater clarity and walk it with confidence.
