OPINION: The inaugural International Women's Awakening Summit in December, in Baja Mexico's magical Todos Santos hosted over 90 participants at Cuatros Vientos (4 Winds) Yoga Center. Here are the most effective ways pioneering women have been restoring the yin-yang balance and enriching their families, communities, industries, and countries.

OPINION: RIO was a huge wake-up call that Global Warming has hit the Olympics. Senator Bernie Sanders said in September that global warming is accelerating and more dire than projected. After seeing that August Ties July For Hottest Month Ever (Popular Science), I asked the UN’s top Ocean consultant Leonard Sonnenschein, what are the chances of swimming in the Tokyo Olympic waters in 2020, and snow at the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea, if our governments do not act quickly enough?

OPINION: People are buzzing how Puerto Vallarta’s Banderas Bay is a splendid turquoise, especially on sunny cloudless calm days. “This is the most turquoise I have seen in the bay in 15 years,” said iconic fisherman Phil Kerr. Could it be from the unprecedented friendly luminescent blue jellyfish that came here and ate up toxins following our Azteca-Cherokee-led oceandance at Los Muertos Pier on December 12?

OPINION: It was a miracle that Mexico’s jewel, Puerto Vallarta, was not wiped off the map with Patricia’s 220 mph winds on Friday October 23, and not one life was lost.

OPINION: As an Olympic skier, I want to thank all those who prayed for the joy and safety of everyone at Russia’s surprisingly “awesome” games. Joining with the Olympic families, were Christian Scientists, Native Americans, Aetherius Society, Monks of Moscow and so many more to help preserve this greatest force for Peace, Understanding, Healing, and Unity for over 1,000 years in Ancient times, and 100 years in Modern times.

OPINION: To further help heal and unite America, on February 26, New Mexico’s Sipapu ski area announced that it is joining Pajarito Mt and Ski Santa Fe in offering landmark affordable skiing and snowboarding opportunities to the tribes of New Mexico and Arizona.

OPINION: The Olympics has been the greatest force for Peace, Understanding, Healing, and Unity for over 1000 years in Ancient times and 100 years in Modern times.  Given that Olympic heroes have inspired countless youth to be happily healthy, productive, brilliant and generous, we hope you will take a moment to join this world prayer for “The Joy and Safety of the Sochi Olympics,” heartened by how it has worked for the last five Olympics.
