 Karlen Evins writing in her journal at a
shrine on the Sir Venkateswara Swamy Temple grounds in Malibu Canyon. She has journaled in churches, temples and sacred places around the world. I am always making notes and journal entries, which
sometimes drives those around me to distraction. But when Karlen and I are together, she outdoes me every time. At least I understand the compulsion.
 Karlen and I in Marina del Rey, CA. We are
both Aries with Leo Rising, our birthdays one day apart. So we are constantly bouncing ideas off each other. Although it is not yet formally announced, Karlen and her broadcast partner
Teddy Bart are planning to have me do a “Soulmate Seminar” sponsored by their “Beyond Reason” radio show in Nashville on March 10th. Stay tuned.
 Karlen recording a guided meditation at RPD
Studio in Thousand Oaks, CA. I was playing producer on this side of the glass. The Santa Anna winds were blowing so hard outside, it was difficult not to pick them up on the
recording within the sound-proof studio. On a couple occasions, after huge gusts, she had to redo portions of the session.
 While my daughter Jessi and her husband
were in town for a visit, Jessi and I did yoga together. Cheyenne slipped into the room with a camera and captured this strange moment in which I was sticking my toes in my ear. If you too are interested in
sticking your toes in your ear, join Bliss Wood and me in Portland, Seattle and Denver for an “Empowering Your Life With Yoga and Spirituality” seminar (March and June dates.
See “Sutphen Seminars” at this site).
 Shauna Hoffman is my buddy, a great
therapist, a murder mystery queen, and a chapter in “Soul Agreements.” She and her troupe of actors conduct “whodunit” murder mysteries on Royal Caribbean cruise ships. She is helping me put together
a “Spiritual Renewal Eastern Caribbean Cruise,” Sept. 3-10. Attend a seminar and tour the islands. Full details are now posted here on the website. Sign on before a potential price raise after Mar. 21.
 This pic of Bliss Wood and I was taken on
Patty Conklin’s deck in Stone Mountain, GA, last Nov. But Bliss didn’t send it to me until January. I like it because she says, “Every time I look at it, I break up laughing.” In 2006 we will be doing joint
bookstore signings, several yoga and spirituality seminars and an exciting 7-day escorted tour limited to ten people. It will include the Sedona, AZ vortexes, the Hopi Reservation,
horseback riding in Canyon de Chelly on the Navajo reservation, and a tour of Monument Valley.
 This is “Howahkan,” Tara’s new
eight-week old Samoyed puppy. His name means “voice of the great spirit” in the Sioux language.
