Enrollment open: Finding Your Dharma: Explore the yoga wisdom tradition's framework for understanding your nature, your values, and the role you're meant to play in the world.


Hi Reader,

Enrollment is now open for Finding Your Dharma, a live online course designed to help you explore one of life’s most important questions:

What kind of life am I actually meant to live?

In the yoga wisdom tradition, this question is explored through the idea of dharma—the alignment between your natural talents, your values, and the way you contribute to the world.

When that alignment is missing, life can start to feel slightly off track.

You may notice that:

• you feel boxed into routines — career or otherwise — that don’t really fit you
• your environment (at work or at home) feels out of sync with your values
• your daily activities don’t make use of your natural talents
• you find yourself wondering what kind of contribution would feel truly meaningful

Career pressures, family dynamics, social media comparisons, and shifting expectations can make it difficult to know whether we’re really on the right path.

That’s why I created Finding Your Dharma.

This course offers a thoughtful framework—rooted in classical yoga philosophy—for understanding your nature, clarifying your values, and exploring how those two things can come into better alignment in your life.

Here’s what past participants have said:

"Finding Your Dharma is a beautifully designed course! I appreciate how Hari makes esoteric concepts relevant to modern lives and concerns." — Jennifer L

"It was inspiring and enlightening to work with Hari. I really liked the workbooks, and the recordings are amazing." — Romy S

"The course was fun, informative, thought-provoking and useful. Each part of the course supported the whole." — Katie G

Two flags hang on a porch, one says "no kings".

Greetings Reader, I hope you had an inspiring No Kings Day yesterday. Here in our nation's capital, as in many other cities big and small, the creativity of protestors was on full display with clever banners and costumes designed to ridicule Trump and his administration. There was also a lot of singing and joyfulness, which was very encouraging because prioritizing joy is one of the most important elements of a successful resistance movement. Tyrannical governments want to be feared; joy...

Greetings Reader, Next Saturday is “No Kings Day” here in the United States. Again. Technically, every day here is “No Kings Day,” but it's painfully clear that some people need to be reminded that the legitimacy of our government is still supposed to be derived from the consent of the governed. As opposed to being derived from the consent of the spiritually-enlightened intellectuals, which is what the yoga wisdom tradition recommends. It may sound anachronistic, but you can make a reasonable...

Greetings Reader, My younger self never aspired to master the art of cooking. Nor did I ever think it would turn into an enjoyable outlet for creative expression. And yet, here I am, in the kitchen, riffing off a recipe to cook up another culinary masterpiece All right, so, perhaps I'm indulging in a bit of overstatement. Cooking has become a form of meditation for me. Once I'm in the kitchen, my mind locks into the process and stays there until the repast is ready. My meditative orientation...
