Why Sun Yoga?
After moving back to the city where I had grown up I started to feel like doing yoga. Every day I walked to work for about 30 minutes. During most of the journey I walked in front of the sea. At that time of year it was possible to see the sun rising from within…

Sex and Soul
A very delicate subject in all religions is sex. Perhaps sex is the most popular subject on the Internet.
