There is nothing more rewarding in life than finding something you are passionate about. This is how I feel with yoga and the whole spiritual world. And you? Have you found your great passion or passions? What has it brought you in your life?


Hablando de todo

Mi gran pasión; el Yoga.

cí mǔ shǒu zhōng xiàn ， yóu zǐ shēn shàng yī 。
慈母手中线，游子身上衣。
lín xíng mì mì féng ， yì kǒng chí chí guī 。
临行密密缝，意恐迟迟归。
shéi yán cùn cǎo xīn ， bào dé sān chūn huī 。
谁言寸草心，报得三春晖。
【注释】
1．游子：在古时候泛指远游旅居的人。
2．意恐：担心。
3．寸草心：寸草，比喻子女；心，指小草的茎干，也暗指子女的心意。
4．三春晖：春天灿烂的阳光，此处比喻慈母的恩情。
【译文】
慈爱的母亲用手中的针线，为外出远行的儿子缝制衣裳。
在他临行之前，一针一线密密地缝制着，只因为担心儿子迟迟不能归来。
有谁敢说，子女像小草一样微弱的孝心，
可以报答慈母像春晖一样温暖的恩情呢？

Have you ever wondered how Business English students acquire the language skills necessary to excel in the professional realm? As an enthusiastic educator, my goal is to equip these students with the tools they need to thrive in the business world. In my classroom, I immerse them in industry-specific vocabulary, exploring diverse sectors like technology, healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. By delving into functional areas such as marketing, finance, and human resources, we unravel the language used in different business roles. Additionally, we navigate the terminology associated with vital business processes like supply chain management and customer service. Through engaging discussions, practical activities, and contextual application, I empower my students to confidently communicate with colleagues, clients, and partners, ensuring their success in the competitive professional landscape. Together, we embark on a journey of language acquisition, enabling them to make a lasting impact in the business world
