Yoga this Week – September 29, 2012

 

“The habit is holding on, the practice is letting go.”
“When I begin a meditation the fullness of my experience, the fullness of my life, often rushes in and I have a moment of resistance. “How can I bare all of this life?” Then I remember that to be the space that can hold all of this joy, all of this sensation, all of this love, all of this sadness, all of this knowing, all of this not knowing, all of this life….. I just need to let go.”

Rolf Gates

 

 

 

Dearest Yoga Students,

How Do we bare all of this life. Sometimes it feels as if our cup is running over with joy and other times that same cup is full of many things we never wanted or asked for. If all things truly do pass, we must trust that in the letting go, we make the space to hold whatever it is we need to hold in the present moment. Realizing that whatever your cup is full of will eventualy slip through your fingers like water through sand. Holding on only enables our cup to remain full of the past, full of judgement, full of misperceptions. Letting go creates emptiness, clarity and that open space to receive the most sacred of all things, the present moment which somehow always has room to hold all the joys, sensations, love, sadness, knowing and not knowing we are meant to experience.

Happenings

Yoga Friends Camp out was great fun. Although the wet weather scared away most adventurers, we were still there celebrating nature and the quiet serentiy of the outdoors. Special thanks to Tracy and Billy for great food and keeping me dry. Plans for another camp out are sure to come.

The 930am Friday Morning Healing Yoga class will begin a once a month Restorative Yoga Session beginning on October 12th. Once a month we will Incorporate supported, gentle yoga postures, pranayama, chanting and Reiki. Beneficial for all levels, including those with special situations or limited mobility. Will most likely be the 2nd Friday of each month, date will be announced at the beginning of each month.  Pleased sign up as soon as possible as this class is sure to fill. 

Saturday October 13th begins a once a month Yoga Jam!! This class will be intentially challenging on all levels. Fun paced vinyaya flows with a rockin’ playlist of music that will lead into holdings for advanced postures. Come as you are (prepared to sweat!)  and expand from there. This class will be 815am to 930am. I will need at least three students to sign up each month for the class to happen. Right now there are four spots left for October 13th.

Shanti, shanti, shanti!!

Namaste
