Yoga this Week – August 25, 2014

 

 

 

Iyengar on yoga

 Greetings dearest yoga students,

I have gained so much from B.K.S. Iyengar’s teachings over the course of my yoga studies that my gratitude overflows for his wisdom, may he rest in peace!!  The study of yoga is a lifetime pursuit that never ends but continually grows deeper.  The teachings of yoga  stimulate my intellect and ignite my creativity as well as allowing me to persevere in  “maintaining a balanced attitude and abiding in”skillful action” the duties I must perform in my life.  I am doubly blessed to have found this amazing path and to have the honor of passing it on to all of you!

Yoga tonight on the beach!

Lets try and arrive by 645pm as sunset is coming earlier and earlier, sad to say that there will only be a few more sunset yoga classes.  Hope you can make it.  Click on the tab for beach yoga if you need more information. myyogawithamy.com/beach-yoga-at-nsbpoas-beech-road-beach

yoga is like music

Tonight as surya colors the sky and it sinks beyond our vision, so will we honor the passing of one of the great gurus of yoga and the brilliance of his wisdom.

“The right method of doing asanas brings lightness and an exhilarating feeling in the body as well as in the mind and a feeling of oneness of body, mind and soul.” – BKS Iyengar

 **Beach Yoga Tomorrow Morning at 8:45am***    

Beach yoga5

 

“It is the wilderness in
the mind, the desert wastes in the heart through which one wanders lost and a stranger. When one is a
stranger to oneself then one is estranged from others too. If one is out of touch with oneself, then one
cannot touch others.” 
 Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Gift from the Sea

Namaste dear yoga students,

What a wonderful discussion ensued around the Gift from the Sea at our book discussion at Cedar Beach Friday night.    It is amazing how yogic wisdom is weaved throughout this precious body of work.  The central themes rotating around the need for solitude and creative pursuits in order to find your inner self as well as the importance in accepting and embracing changes in relationships and within ourselves.  If you haven’t gotten a chance to read it, I would highly recommend it.  As someone said in our discussion; as soon as you open the book and begin reading, it creates a calm flow of energy inside of you, both within the imagery of the beach and the beautiful, poetic rhythm of her words.  Hoping to do another book discussion in the future.  Thank you to all who attended for the conversation, insights, laughter and connection.  Oh and special thanks to the Gift from the Sea!

Beach Yoga Tomorrow Morning at 8:45am – Its looking like it will be beautiful!!

Greetings dear yoga students,

If you want to know how you got to where you are today, look at your past actions.  If you want to know what your future will be like, look at your present actions.  Its that simple.  We create our future everyday  with what we do in the present.  Tapas, the Niyama described as disciplined action, helps us create the future we long for.  Take a look at your present state of mind, your present schedule and what it is comprised of and ask yourself if it is aiding you in creating the life you desire.  Tapas helps us to create the fertile ground for healthy growth to occur.  Tapas is getting on your yoga mat, getting to bed early, creating space in your life because the disciplines help to create an ultimate calm state of mine.   Tapas enlightens our days with determination and resolve to stay on this path we have chosen, courageously forging our way through this beautiful journey called life with joy.
