- Paul’s Ministry to the Gentiles | Ephesians 3
In former generations this mystery was not made known to humankind, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. The Books of the Bible Paul’s Ministry to the Gentiles Ephesians 3:1 This is the reason that I Paul am a prisoner for Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles— 2 for surely you have already heard of the commission of God’s grace that was given me for you, 3 and how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I wrote above in a few words, 4 a reading of which will enable you to perceive my understanding of the mystery of Christ. 5 In former generations this mystery was not made known to humankind, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit: 6 that is, the Gentiles have become fellow heirs, members of the same body, and sharers in the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel. 7 Of this gospel I have become a servant according to the gift of God’s grace that was given me by the working of his power. 8 Although I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given to me to bring to the Gentiles the news of the boundless riches of Christ, 9 and to make everyone seea what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages inb God who created all things; 10 so that through the church the wisdom of God in its rich variety might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. 11 This was in accordance with the eternal purpose that he has carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord, 12 in whom we have access to God in boldness and confidence through faith in him.a 13 I pray therefore that you may not lose heart over my sufferings for you; they are your glory. Prayer for the Readers 14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth takes its name. 16 I pray that, according to the riches of his glory, he may grant that you may be strengthened in your inner being with power through his Spirit, 17 and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, as you are being rooted and grounded in love. 18 I pray that you may have the power to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. 20 Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever.

- Children of God | 1 John 3
How does God’s love abide in anyone who has the world’s goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses help? The Books of the Bible Children of God 1 John 3:1 See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed. What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is. 3 And all who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure. 4 Everyone who commits sin is guilty of lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 5 You know that he was revealed to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in him sins; no one who sins has either seen him or known him. 7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Everyone who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 8 Everyone who commits sin is a child of the devil; for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God was revealed for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9 Those who have been born of God do not sin, because God’s seed abides in them; they cannot sin, because they have been born of God. 10 The children of God and the children of the devil are revealed in this way: all who do not do what is right are not from God, nor are those who do not love their brothers and sisters. Love One Another 11 For this is the message you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12 We must not be like Cain who was from the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother’s righteous. 13 Do not be astonished, brothers and sisters,a that the world hates you. 14 We know that we have passed from death to life because we love one another. Whoever does not love abides in death. 15 All who hate a brother or sister are murderers, and you know that murderers do not have eternal life abiding in them. 16 We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for one another. 17 How does God’s love abide in anyone who has the world’s goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses help? 18 Little children, let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action. 19 And by this we will know that we are from the truth and will reassure our hearts before him 20 whenever our hearts condemn us; for God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. 21 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have boldness before God; 22 and we receive from him whatever we ask, because we obey his commandments and do what pleases him. 23 And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us. 24 All who obey his commandments abide in him, and he abides in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit that he has given us.

- Southern Roots Vegan Bakery | Austin, TX
So good you won't believe it's vegan! Shipping nationwide. Location: 6208 S Flores St San Antonio, Tx 78214 Website: https://southernrootsvegan.com/ Information: From Southern Roots Vegan Bakery San Antonio residents Marcus and Cara Pitts met working in the healthcare field in 2013. Once they were married, Cara became a full-time caregiver for her 98-year-old grandmother, Mary Lee. When Marcus made the decision to go plant-based, it set Cara on a journey to create meals her grandmother, who was born and raised in the South, would love to enjoy and that wouldn't lack in taste. Through a lot of trial and error and playing around with recipes that she previously baked for years, Cara came up with a simple, yet delicious plant-based donut that friends, family, and especially Mary Lee loved! Marcus and Cara regularly served their vegan treats in the children's ministry at their church which eventually led to their online bakery - Southern Roots Vegan Bakery (SRVB). With the love and support of their friends and family, they started going to farmers' markets and eventually made their way to Social Media Influencer, Tabitha Brown, which helped to gain their first viral exposure. Southern Roots Vegan Bakery now ships nationwide and offers delivery for San Antonio residents. Everything they create is homemade, from their now-famous assorted dozen cake donuts which come in Red Velvet, Classic OG (original glaze), and Lemon Drop to their Mary Lee’s Lemon Cake, named after Cara’s grandmother. All of the Southern Roots’ baked goods are vegan friendly, which means no dairy, eggs, or animal products. Most of SRVB’s treats come in heat-sealed packages to preserve freshness and can be frozen for up to 3 months in original packaging. SRVB’s products are great for vegan and plant-based diets or anyone wanting healthier alternatives. Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life. More yoga."

- Christ Our Advocate | 1 John 2
Whoever says, “I am in the light,” while hating a brother or sister, is still in the darkness. Whoever loves a brother or sister lives in the light, and in such a person there is no cause for stumbling. The Books of the Bible Christ Our Advocate 1 John 2:1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; 2 and he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world. 3 Now by this we may be sure that we know him, if we obey his commandments. 4 Whoever says, “I have come to know him,” but does not obey his commandments, is a liar, and in such a person the truth does not exist; 5 but whoever obeys his word, truly in this person the love of God has reached perfection. By this we may be sure that we are in him: 6 whoever says, “I abide in him,” ought to walk just as he walked. A New Commandment 7 Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment that you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word that you have heard. 8 Yet I am writing you a new commandment that is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining. 9 Whoever says, “I am in the light,” while hating a brother or sister, is still in the darkness. 10 Whoever loves a brother or sister lives in the light, and in such a person there is no cause for stumbling. 11 But whoever hates another believer is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and does not know the way to go, because the darkness has brought on blindness. 12 I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven on account of his name. 13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young people, because you have conquered the evil one. 14 I write to you, children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young people, because you are strong and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one. 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. The love of the Father is not in those who love the world; 16 for all that is in the world—the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, the pride in riches—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17 And the world and its desire are passing away, but those who do the will of God live forever. Warning against Antichrists 18 Children, it is the last hour! As you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come. From this we know that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But by going out they made it plain that none of them belongs to us. 20 But you have been anointed by the Holy One, and all of you have knowledge. 21 I write to you, not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and you know that no lie comes from the truth. 22 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son. 23 No one who denies the Son has the Father; everyone who confesses the Son has the Father also. 24 Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is what he has promised us, eternal life. 26 I write these things to you concerning those who would deceive you. 27 As for you, the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and so you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, abide in him. 28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he is revealed we may have confidence and not be put to shame before him at his coming. Children of God 29 If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who does right has been born of him.

- From Death to Life | Ephesians 2
All of us once lived among them in the passions of our flesh, and we were by nature children of wrath, like everyone else. But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us made us alive together with Christ. The Books of the Bible From Death to Life Ephesians 2:1 You were dead through the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once lived, following the course of this world, following the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work among those who are disobedient. 3 All of us once lived among them in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of flesh and senses, and we were by nature children of wrath, like everyone else. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us 5 even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the ages to come he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God— 9 not the result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are what he has made us, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand to be our way of life. One in Christ 11 So then, remember that at one time you Gentiles by birth, called “the uncircumcision” by those who are called “the circumcision”—a physical circumcision made in the flesh by human hands— 12 remember that you were at that time without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For he is our peace; in his flesh he has made both groups into one and has broken down the dividing wall, that is, the hostility between us. 15 He has abolished the law with its commandments and ordinances, that he might create in himself one new humanity in place of the two, thus making peace, 16 and might reconcile both groups to God in one body through the cross, thus putting to death that hostility through it. 17 So he came and proclaimed peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near; 18 for through him both of us have access in one Spirit to the Father. 19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are citizens with the saints and also members of the household of God, 20 built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone. 21 In him the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord; 22 in whom you also are built together spiritually into a dwelling place for God.

- All the Way Live Cafe | Philadelphia, PA
Raw and vegan foods. Location: 6108 Germantown Ave Philadelphia, PA 19144 Website: https://allthewaylivecafe.com/ Information: From All the Way Live Cafe Nyeisha was born to be a Vegan/Raw-Food Artisan! From infancy she was raised on a strict raw food diet which consisted mostly of fresh fruits and vegetables; and the benefits of such were shown in her healthy childhood. Even though she attended private school and was around communicable diseases and viruses, her immune system was superb and she never contracted anything, not even the common cold. This resulted in her having perfect attendance from kindergarten through the twelfth grade. During her twenties, Nyeisha decided to stray away from her Raw-Food lifestyle and began eating everything that wasn’t meat. There was an immediate difference in her attitude, her mental clarity, as well as her physical health. After just four months on this standard American diet, Nyeisha gained over thirty pounds, suffered from depression, and had been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. After realizing the dietary choices she had made were killing her she went on a freshly juiced green tonic and fruit fast for one month. In just that short period of time she had lost almost all of the weight, and the depression and gestational diabetes had totally disappeared. She had regained the energy and strength she had enjoyed on her Raw-Food lifestyle. Nyeisha, now able to think clearly, wanted to know what made her flee away from her life-sistaining, cell rejuvenating, bowel cleansing, and toxin-blocking lifestyle. She kept asking herself, “Was the food really good?” And her answer was “No”. It wasn’t good for her soul or her body, and after finishing those toxic, chemically processed meals, she often remembered feeling stuffed along with an instant mucous build-up. She refers The Standardized American Diet to a highly addictive drug and said even though the food made her lethargic, ill, and on a road to obesity, the drug was so powerful she found it hard to eliminate it. In 2005, Nyeisha met the world renowned herbalist, Dr. Sebi, who worked with the likes of Magic Johnson, Michael Jackson, and the late Lisa Lopez (Left Eye) from the group TLC . He elevated her Raw-Food lifestyle by teaching her to eliminate hybrid foods and soy products from her dietary consumption. She soon realized she could match the illusion of the American diet with the factual Raw-Food lifestyle. She began preparing food which have a Raw-Food base with a tasteful herbal flare. She combines organic fresh fruit and vegetables with herbs that take the palate on a tasteful and guilt-free ride, which leaves you satisfied and craving more. In October 2008 Nyeisha and her wonderful mother, Sister Beverly, opened up the 1st Raw-Food Vegan Café in Philadelphia Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life. More yoga."

- The Vision of Obadiah | Obadiah
Your proud heart has deceived you. The Books of the Bible The Book of Obadiah 1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus says the Lord GOD concerning Edom: We have heard a report from the LORD, and a messenger has been sent among the nations: “Rise up! Let us rise against it for battle!” 2 I will surely make you least among the nations; you shall be utterly despised. 3 Your proud heart has deceived you, you that live in the clefts of the rock, whose dwelling is in the heights. You say in your heart, “Who will bring me down to the ground?” 4 Though you soar aloft like the eagle, though your nest is set among the stars, from there I will bring you down, says the LORD.

- Spiritual Blessings in Christ | Ephesians 1
In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace that he lavished on us. The Books of the Bible Ephesians 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, Salutation To the saints who are in Ephesus and are faithful in Christ Jesus: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Spiritual Blessings in Christ 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 just as he chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him in love. 5 He destined us for adoption as his children through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 to the praise of his glorious grace that he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace 8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and insight 9 he has made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure that he set forth in Christ, 10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to gather up all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. 11 In Christ we have also obtained an inheritance, having been destined according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to his counsel and will, 12 so that we, who were the first to set our hope on Christ, might live for the praise of his glory. 13 In him you also, when you had heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and had believed in him, were marked with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit; 14 this is the pledge of our inheritance toward redemption as God’s own people, to the praise of his glory. Paul’s Prayer 15 I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, and for this reason 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you as I remember you in my prayers. 17 I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation as you come to know him, 18 so that, with the eyes of your heart enlightened, you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance among the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power for us who believe, according to the working of his great power. 20 God put this power to work in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the age to come. 22 And he has put all things under his feet and has made him the head over all things for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

- The Word of Life | 1 John 1
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves. The Books of the Bible The Word of Life 1 John 1:1 We declare to you what was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2 this life was revealed, and we have seen it and testify to it, and declare to you the eternal life that was with the Father and was revealed to us— 3 we declare to you what we have seen and heard so that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 We are writing these things so that our joy may be complete. God Is Light 5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true; 7 but if we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

- What it Means to be Dauntless | The Indigo Issue
Featured in The Indigo Issue of Liveology Yoga Magazine. 'I started doing yoga so much that it became redundant. So I started creating my own, and I was like, you know what, my boys could benefit from this, like my athletes can benefit from this." An interview of Dulani Stephens by Christina Mills. Christina Mills: How are you doing? Dulani Stephens: I'm grateful and blessed to be here. I'm just happy to see another promised day. How about yourself? That's awesome. Just happy to be here. Okay, so you participated in and won our November yoga challenge? How did you find out about it? I found about it from a another yogi, I follow JoJo @ preppylocs {who was a challenge host}. And I like, respect her and appreciate her and what she's doing and how authentic she is about her practice off. Like, if she's doing it, I probably should be involved in it. And I seen it was a all black kind of challenge hosted by black. A black yoga sounds like okay, this seems real cool. I've been looking for a community like this. So I'm like, why not? What's the worst that can happen? It was cool when I first saw your page. Because I was like, Oh, this guy like, does yoga. Like you have shirts that say I do yoga? Like, I love it. So. So you've done yoga challenges before? No lie. That was my first one. Even better. So, how did you get into yoga? So funny story. The first time I ever did yoga was in college. And I was a track athlete, very tight hips, no flexibility in my hips. And my coach said, hey, you need to do yoga is gonna make you more explosive. It's gonna make you better. And I was like, Sure I'll try anything. I literally was so like, sore. I was hurting and muscles I didn't know existed. After that, I kind of dabbled in it from time to time. But overall, I'm actually a runner. So I'm athlete. I like to do Spartan Races or obstacle course races. And I run half marathons. And I was like, I need to create a routine where I can stretch and stay limber, throughout my races or in between long runs, short runs. Nike had a promotion that they were doing yoga for free for Premium members, so I started doing it that way. And I started doing it so much that it became redundant. So I started kind of creating my own, and I was like, you know what, my boys could benefit from this, like my athletes can benefit from this. And I just kind of started doing research and looking into it. And I found a program. That was for teachers by teachers. I'm a football coach by trade, so I coached football and track so it was gonna be beneficial to me to add to my resume. But once I got into the training, I started to peel layers back on myself that I didn't know were there. And I just became more vulnerable and started to see my flaws and where I was at and, you know, talking about the eight limbs and the disciplines and all of that kind of made me realize like, I have to be this to get to where I want to go. So it kind of helped me work in towards becoming my best version, in a sense. I started in January, and got my 200 hour certification in September. And it was one of those deals where the more I talked, the more comfortable I became. And the more comfortable I became, the more fluid I became with my students. I have a group of kids who show up on Sunday nights that are varsity wrestlers. And they come to yoga because they feel better after they leave. So right now my goal is to create an experience to where it's somewhere,they don't have to be, but they want to be there. So it's like a choice for them to come. But they're reaping the benefits also of being mindful, relaxing their emotions, controlling their outcome, controlling their thoughts. So I'm teaching them not just the poses, but the mindset that goes with it. And it's gonna carry over into many parts of their life. So right now, for me, it's really about breaking the stigma of what yoga has been taught to society, and letting it be known that it's not one way to do it. There's many different variations and ways to do it. But it depends on who's teaching it and how they're transcribing it to you. You know, so many people try to make it more difficult than it is. And sometimes you got to put it in layman's terms to people. So they're more comfortable coming, and that feeling intimidated to come to a class? I get you. So okay, so at what point did you like create the swag? You have stocks, you got shorts, all of that. So as I went through, I've always been entrepreneur. So me being a jock. You know, you get represented by your brand, or you get represented by what you wear. So really the brand is a fundraiser for a bigger goal that I want to achieve. So I want to have my own nonprofit to where I'm giving kids or helping kids get a sports equipment, cleats, giving scholarships to kids that are in college, to help them eat or help them, you know, buy books and certain things. So I said, most fundraisers you use, you donate money, and you get a thank you. I want to make to where when you get a donation, you get a shirt, a pair of socks or a whole kit. So my my theory was, if you know you're going to get a gift, you're more likely to donate more. And if you donate more, you're going to wear the gift. So, I like wearing unique things and unique pieces. And I always get compliments on the stuff that I wear. And I said, I wonder if I can make that into something of my own. And make it to where, you know, it's a word that identifies with people. So I bought a course about creating your own brand, went through the school went trial and error, put it together. So right now I'm still working on it every day, but it's blown into something bigger than I thought it was just like the yoga has. My favorite rappers like Master P Jay Z, they all have a way to make income outside of just music. They always say you got to have some product. When you have a brand, it identifies who you are. I want to do it the right way and also set myself up for future endeavors. So it's gonna evolve as time goes. Yeah, that's cool. So why the word Dauntless First my name is Dulani Stephens. And the source is just my initials. I have a tattoo with the D S on it. But me, my dad, both my brothers, and three of my nephews all have the same initials. And I have an 11-year-old and a 12 bout to be 13 year-old and a eight-year-old nephew. And I said, "How cool would it be that my family and future children to be able to have something that they can identify with and wear, but represents something bigger than any other brand that they'll ever put on? So I kind of made it and wanted to make it a family business, but also incorporate my dad, my brother, and my niece, my nephews. Just had to say, this is this is ours. This is ours. Dauntless means fearless. You know, not not not going away. Not you know, faltering when things get tough. So in my life, I've been arrested. I've been to jail, I've been homeless. I've had to scrape from the bottom, I've had to work my way up. Everything I've had to earn, I've had to basically go get, as they say, get out the mud. I've had to earn. I've had to work. No, I didn't get handouts. I walked on to play college football, my second time around, I had to stay extra years to get my degree. I had to work to get my teacher certification to be legal to teach in the state of Texas. So it was like so many different things, kind of make you who you are. And dauntless was just kind of that word that I could identify with that matched my personality. But also, that's what I want to do. Be a part of, you know, when you hear it you like, Oh, I wonder what that is. It kind of sparks your interest. So I'm 6'1". I've been, you know, the same size for a while. And people underestimate my flexibility. So my alter ego, of my mentors gave me was Yogi duBerra. So when we would do work, I would stretch. And you know, people would be like how are you doing it? And I was like, "I do yoga. " And I was just like, a never ending joke. So now I put it on the shirt. And people ask like, "Oh, do you do yoga today?" "Yeah, actually, I do." Oh, and they kind of is a great conversation starter. But then they ask why and then you got somebody that wants to be involved just because of that shirt. And it's universal across any language. So that's something I kinda wanted to put out there for the world. Is there anything else you have to say to the world? I'm gonna say I'm gonna say to the world," Be dope or die trying." You only get one life to do this. So don't waste it on trying to be somebody you're not Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life. More yoga."

- Hot Air Balloon: A Visualization | The Indigo Issue
Featured in The Indigo Issue of Liveology Yoga Magazine . Find a comfortable seat. Begin to elongate the breathing into rhythmic slow, full breaths. Then begin. I want you to envision yourself floating down a river on a boat with no paddle. With the boat seeming to lead the way on its own, there is nothing to do but lay back and enjoy the journey. Take a big inhale, taking in the fresh air around you. What does it smell like? Pay attention to the sound of the birds, the gentle sound of the water, and any sounds you hear as you relax in the boat, illuminated by the warm rays of the sun. Enjoy. You notice, in the distance, a house. Your house. And a you draw closer, a dock. The boat guides you right to the edge of the dock, and you can tell that you won't have to tie it up. As you walk up toward your beautiful house, you notice something new. A freshly inflated hot air balloon waits on your front lawn with an eagar looking attendant nearby.

- Pillage and Slaughter Will Repay Edom’s Cruelty | Obadiah
On that day, says the LORD, I will destroy the wise out of Edom. The Books of the Bible The Book of Obadiah Pillage and Slaughter Will Repay Edom’s Cruelty 5 If thieves came to you, if plunderers by night —how you have been destroyed!— would they not steal only what they wanted? If grape-gatherers came to you, would they not leave gleanings? 6 How Esau has been pillaged, his treasures searched out! 7 All your allies have deceived you, they have driven you to the border; your confederates have prevailed against you; those who ate your bread have set a trap for you— there is no understanding of it. 8 On that day, says the LORD, I will destroy the wise out of Edom, and understanding out of Mount Esau. 9 Your warriors shall be shattered, O Teman, so that everyone from Mount Esau will be cut off.

- HarperIman
Home and life shop. Website: https://www.harperiman.com/ Information: From HarperIman We may have started off as mother & daughter (Cynthia on left , Kathryn on right) but along the way we became best friends and now, business partners. We are committed to making dolls of color that represent the type of dolls that we wished we had and dolls of color that we needed growing up. We are dedicated to creating dolls that reinforce to children of color how important they are, how smart they are, how beautiful they are, how talented they are and how creative they are. It is hard to be what you cannot see. Dolls of color are underrepresented. The truth is that there weren't many choices on the market to choose from and the ones available did not accurately represent our many different skin tones and hair textures, so our children are left playing with and trying to identify with dolls that look nothing like them. Our vision is to create dolls of color that are more relatable. To go to a store or search online and not be able to find a doll that accurately represents little brown girls was extremely frustrating. There is a need that we want to fill, so that moving forward, at the very least people have a more diverse selection to choose from. We created HarperIman Dolls to provide a better representation of dolls to little girls of color and although we are still a very small business, we have set out to change this problem, one day at a time. Our mission is to create dolls that help reinforce how beautiful our children are by providing them with positive affirmations of themselves through dolls that they can actually identify with. We hope to promote positive self-image in children. We shouldn’t be left to identify with dolls that do not share our same skin tone or texture of hair. Our dolls are meant for light imaginative play and we want little kids to be able to have dolls that look like them and share the same style as them — dolls that reflect who they are and who they want to be. -Cynthia & Kathryn Founders, HarperIman Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life.

- The River of Life: Revelation 22
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God. The River of Life 1 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 through the middle of the street of the city. On either side of the river is the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, producing its fruit each month; and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3 Nothing accursed will be found there any more. But the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him; 4 they will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5 And there will be no more night; they need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever. 6 And he said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true, for the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place.” 7 “See, I am coming soon! Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” Epilogue and Benediction 8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me; 9 but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your comrades the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!” 10 And he said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near. 11 Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.” 12 “See, I am coming soon; my reward is with me, to repay according to everyone’s work. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” 14 Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they will have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by the gates. 15 Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and fornicators and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. 16 “It is I, Jesus, who sent my angel to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.” 17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” And let everyone who hears say, “Come.” And let everyone who is thirsty come. Let anyone who wishes take the water of life as a gift. 18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this book; 19 if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away that person’s share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book. 20 The one who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus! 21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the saints. Amen. New Revised Standard Version Liveology Yoga Studios creates uplifting content for your whole life.

- Rooted Woman | Nail Care
Love. Wellness. Sisterhood. Freedom. Website: https://www.rootedwoman.com/ Information: From Rooted Woman It's a deeply personal journey for the original Rooted Woman, India D. Williams, who took 2015 to unapologetically hit the pause button on her professional life in pursuit of personal wellness. Work was life, until Williams' health took a turn, bringing her priorities sharply into focus. During her six-month journey, she regained her health, and her purpose - to create a community of women who value self-care. We curate non-toxic, ethical nail polishes and treatments to promote radical self-care for women. Our polishes are made in small batches, and as such, may reflect slight variation in color. This is by design and in keeping with our standard of authenticity. Rooted Woman seeks to revolutionize the narrative of self-care as a selfish reward to a necessary practice that should be supported and accessible within the lives of women—at every stage of their journey through womanhood. We promote self-care through our ethical, non-toxic nail polish and treatments. Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life. More yoga."

- Highbrow Hippie | Venice, CA
Live consciously. Location: 1617 Abbot Kinney Blvd Venice, CA 90291 Website: https://highbrowhippie.com/ Information: From Highbrow Hippie Highbrow Hippie was created to fill a void. Our goal is to expand the definition of a salon and return to its historical meaning - a gathering place to exchange thoughts and ideas. Creating a sense of community, self care and a way to drop out for a few hours and focus on yourself. We want people to silence their phones, put away their devices and interact with each other and our products designed to destress contemporary living. Especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, we want people to drop in and drop out. Our intention is to refocus on self care, community and experience. What works best for our customers is always top of mind and we hope that people will leave feeling inspired, connected, grounded and maybe having learned something new - either about themselves or someone else. These small steps and attention to detail equal a huge amount of luxury in today’s fast paced and overly connected world. Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life. More yoga."

- Take all my loves, my love, yea, take them all | William Shakespeare
What hast thou then more than thou hadst before? Sonnet 40: Take all my loves, my love, yea, take them all by William Shakespeare Take all my loves, my love, yea, take them all: What hast thou then more than thou hadst before? No love, my love, that thou mayst true love call— All mine was thine before thou hadst this more. Then if for my love thou my love receivest, I cannot blame thee for my love thou usest; But yet be blamed if thou this self deceivest By wilful taste of what thyself refusest. I do forgive thy robb’ry, gentle thief, Although thou steal thee all my poverty; And yet love knows it is a greater grief To bear love’s wrong than hate’s known injury. Lascivious grace, in whom all ill well shows, Kill me with spites, yet we must not be foes. Liveology Yoga Studios creates uplifting content for your whole life.

- Dive in Well
Cultivating space, community, conversations, and change for a more equitable and accessible wellness industry. Website: https://www.diveinwell.com/ Information: From Dive in Well In 2019, we gathered over 100 leaders and influencers in the wellness space for intimate salon dinners across NYC and LA entitled "Diversity in Wellness," with the mission of working towards a more inclusive industry. With these leaders, who we call our Dive in Well community, we facilitated heart-centered conversations and created plans of action and accountability. You can read more about the topics and outcomes here. In February 2020, we relaunched into Dive in Well with the plan of growing our salon dinners, expanding to new cities, and adding online resources. Our in-person event series came to a halt with COVID-19, and we have accelerated our attention online. This pandemic has highlighted the gross inequities in accessibility to healthcare and wellness, especially for marginalized communities. Currently the wellness practices online are still dominated by white voices of privilege. And individual BIPOC practitioners who can't afford the costs to move online were left behind. We seek to amplify diverse voices in wellness, which means wellness for all. Liveology, LLC is a yoga media company sharing "More life. More yoga."
