Kirtan Concert Friday, January 4th at 7pm at the North Shore Public Library

 Join us as we begin 2019 sending positive energy into a world that so desperately needs it.  this is a great way to release the old and bring in the new.  Chanting is meditative, uplifting and fun!

Call the North Shore Public Library to Register 631-929-4488. This event is FREE for all!

Friday, January 4th at 7pm at the North Shore Public Library in Shoreham.

Amy on Harmonium, Steve on guitar and Jim percussion will lead original compositions of sacred chants meant to clear the mind, body and spirit of clutter and negative energy. Chanting (or simply being present and listening) connects us not only to each other as community but is said to call down powerful spiritual energy to connect us to a power beyond this world. Chanting is healing, uplifting and meditative. No vocal or chanting experience necessary. All are welcome!! Let go of your inhibitions and tap into the divine flow of sacred Chant!

Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om!!!

“My beloved child, break your heart no longer.
Each time you judge yourself, you break your own heart.
You stop feeding on the love which is the wellspring of your vitality.
The time has come.

Your time.  To celebrate.

And to see the goodness that you are.
You my child, are divine. You are pure. You are sublimely free.
You are God in disguise. And you are always perfectly safe.
Do not fight the dark. Just turn on the light.
Let go, And breathe into the goodness that you are.”

Swami Kripalvanandaji

Hari Om Dearest Yoga Students,

May Peace, Contentment and Joy fill your heart and soul this entire week and beyond!  Thank you sooo much for being part of our wonderful yoga community.  The Winter Solstice Sangha was so  much fun and the connection I see between you all fills me with such happiness.  After all, what truly is the most important thing in our lives?  From my vantage point it is how we touch the lives around us.  Much gratitude to you for touching my heart so deeply and with such fun, dedication and love.

Yoga this Week – December 9,2018

Do not try to save
the whole world
or do anything grandiose.
Instead, create a clearing
in the dense forest
of your life and wait there patiently,
until the song that is your life
falls into your own cupped hands
and you recognize and greet it.
Only then will you know
how to give yourself
to this world so worthy of rescue.

Martha Postlewaite

Dear Yoga Students,

Read this poem over and over until it sinks in.  This is Yoga, this is what it means to go within and have the patience to wait till the right action arises. Within the rush of all the comings and goings, create that clearing and listen to your precious life’s song guiding you on.

Yoga this Week – December 2, 2018

“Yoga postures and practice should be adjusted to the needs and levels of each practitioner, not the other way around.  Yet more often than not, students force themselves into postures (with a preconceived goal).  Goals are the finish line of a race, while yoga is an ongoing process throughout life.  We need goals but we need to keep them in their proper place”  
                     Ganga White
Lotus Pose
Learning to tune in to your internal cues and honoring them will help keep you stay safe and attain balance on and off the mat.  Get quiet when making a decision, listen to what your body is saying as you begin your yoga practice, the answer is there.  Allow yourself to have goals, goals are a healthy way of moving forward in the direction we desire. Goals keep us motivated and keep us focused.  However, learn to honor the journey and give space for your goals to shift and change as life unfolds.  Trust the process and enjoy an experiential,  experimental life that allows  the divine expression of your unique self to shine through.

**Please Note:  Wed Evening Class is switched to Tuesday Evening for this Week only.  Please let me know if you plan to attend**

Open your doors and allow gratitude to flow in and out.  Gratitude is the mother of Joy!  Let us all be grateful for our beautiful, crazy, unpredictable, exciting lives by expressing our joy and light wherever we happen to be.   Hoping you all had a  blessed holiday.  Let us keep up our practice as the season into the dark is quickening.  In order to motivate you not to skip class,  each time  you come to practice, from now until January 4th, remember to put your name in the box to win a Private Session with me.  The more times you come to class, the more chances you have to win!

Friday Morning Class Cancelled-Happy Thanksgiving!

Decided to cancel class on Friday as we will happily have a few extra feet scampering around our home that morning!  Classes Resume on Tuesday Morning.


Gratitude goes out to each and everyone of you on this Thanksgiving Day Eve for allowing me to express my Dharma in the teaching that passes through me to you.  We have created a sacred space in our humble yoga room for many souls  seeking refuge,  connection, laughter, strength and  empowerment; I sincerely thank you for being part of our beautiful Kula.  
“Live in each season as it passes; breath air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each. Let them be your only diet drink and botanical medicines”
Henry David Thoreau

Happy Thanksgiving!

Blessings and Peace to you!

Much Love,

Amy

*Please Note there is No Wednesday Evening Yoga this week and Make sure to double check your email in case Friday Morning gets cancelled*  


At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. 
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.  ~ Albert Schweitzer

Dear Yoga Students,

Much gratitude now and always to all of you who show up week after week to your yoga mat.  Whether you realize it or not, your presence in class not only lights your own flame but also supports others that practice beside you.  Sometimes all we need is a spark to rekindle our flame; a smile, a kind work, a new idea, a sweet heartfelt hug.  Never underestimate the power a small gesture can create.  May you and yours enjoy the small moments, those precious times together when we express our gratitude for each other and all we have in our lives.
