| From the Editor | |
| Change (Parinama) is the natural state of the universe as it is creating, manifesting and refining life. Our common response to change is fear, resistance and agitation. But we can choose to embrace change by trusting in the work of the universe and knowing that all change is for our highest good. We can also meditate on the change we perceive all around us to see and identify with the one thing that does not change: our true Self. When we are centered in the Self our attachments melt away and life flows effortlessly around us.

| Winter Yoga Sequence |
| Winter is a time of deep stillness and inner reflection. We can use winter’s introspective energy to gain clarity and insight for the spring cycle of growth and expansion. Willpower and determination is required to look deep into the darkness of this season to face our deepest fears, our hidden realms, and our unconscious minds. In Traditional Chinese Medicine winter is the time when the water element is dominant and the energy in the kidneys and bladder channels becomes the strongest. If the energy of the kidneys are weak than excess fear may arise or feeling of depression may occur, but if the kidneys are strong than we can access abundant willpower, courage and determination to survive and flourish in this season of darkness. This 41-step pose sequence will tonify and activate the energy of the kidneys to create the strength, wisdom and courage to do the inner work that winter presents. |

| College Students Meditating to Lower Stress |
| Ask any college student, present or former, about the stress of Higher Education, and you will be met with a unanimous response. College is stressful. Even though my college experience is well in my past, I can remember feeling overwhelming stress during the process, to the point that I was experiencing chronic neck and shoulder pain. It was during this very stressful point in my life that I discovered yoga and meditation to help me deal with the mounting expectations of student life. Now a study of D.C. college students shows that meditation can go a long way in helping students deal with the stresses of college. |

| Yoga Conferences Go Virtual |
| The desire to deepen our understanding and knowledge is a vein that runs deep in the tradition of yoga. Students seek teachers, texts and communities that support the growing aspiration of gaining more wisdom through experience and exposure to those who have it. Students often gain this experience of study through retreats and trainings that can sometimes be timely and costly, though always well worth the time and money, but now there are opportunities to study with experienced, knowledgeable teachers without ever leaving the comfort of your own home as virtual trainings and conferences become more popular. |
