The last month of the year is time to review the work accomplished and congratulate ourselves on our progress and lessons learned. We take inventory and plan for the new year ahead. December is a time of taking stock and being still with what is, positive and not so. When we have done well, we take the time to give back. iHanuman gives back at least 5% of every sale in our store because we BELIEVE in the power of the practice of yoga, which includes selfless service towards others.
After almost 3 years in development, our latest version 3.0 is running on a State-of-the-Art Open Source platform and is at the forefront of media management and distribution technology.

Autumn Metal Element: Lungs and Large Intestine "The Lungs and breath are what connect us to the Divine, to the Heavens, enabling us to receive it into ourselves. With each breath, we receive Divine "inspiration" (from the Greek word, "inspiros" which means "to breathe in"....Learning a spiritual practice that includes disciplined breathing exercises can be a way to reconnect to our own spirituality, on the most fundamental level. The connection is there whether we are aware of it or not, since with each in-breath, we draw some of the Universe into ourselves." - Janice MacKenzie, Discovering the Five Elements.
