Awakening The Third Eye
I’ve always been interested in taking up a meditation practice and have downloaded various apps to help me along that journey. I’ve also always associated meditation with “escaping” reality or at least with reaching a place where I could be aware of my thoughts […]

Empowering Women One ‘Post’ At A Time
