Yoga this Week – June 22, 2014

June 23, 2014 amyperri2 4 Comments

“Yoga helps us to remember again and again what we have forgotten…

that our bodies, our minds and our lives are pliable, changeable and capable of creating any experience we choose to create.”

If you are feeling stuck, stagnant or blocked at this time, please try and remember that even in the “down” times, we are still moving forward. It is imperative, however, that during dormancy we try and trust that the abundance of the universe is on its way; we are most likely being prepared for something much greater, much more expansive than our limited minds can understand. Even when we are not sure of our next step, all we need do is stumble forward in faith, in perseverance and in the knowing that at any given moment we have the opportunity to make the necessary changes in our lives toward health, well being and happiness. Allow your yoga practice to be a beautiful reminder of just how moldable our bodies, minds and spirits can become one compassionate, patient, focused moment at a time.

Yoga this Week – June 15, 2014

June 16, 2014 amyperri2 2 Comments

Every time we come into the present moment we unlock our ideas about what our life should look like. Yoga helps us realize the unlimited potential that is inherent in every moment.. It shapes the way we feel about ourselves, our world and our dreams. When we experience the radiance of our bodies, the power of our breath and the qualities of a calm mind, a long hidden truth comes floating to the service; that we are more than the sometimes limited labels we place on ourselves. We remember again what we have forgotten, that we are more than our bodies, more than our thoughts, more than even this limited time we are encapsulated in called our life. When we realize this truth again and again, we can give ourselves permission to dream dreams, discover new passions and then cultivate the trust and strength to materialize our desires. So allow your yoga to be more than achieving some outward expression of physical form, allow YOUR yoga to unlock the inner flexibility of your minds so your life can soar beyond your wildest dreams.

“What we are trying to do in yoga is to create a union, and so to deepen a yoga pose is to actually increase the union of the pose, not necessarily put your leg around your head.”

Rodney Yee

–

Each time we come to our mats, we have a chance to explore interconnectedness. We begin with our breath and move into our bodies, but it doesn’t stop there. As we create union with a pose, we adjust, consider, explore, become present and breathe into the experience. We soften into the edges of the pose and watch them dissolve as we flow moment to moment. Much the same way we can choose to unite and connect with the situations and interactions in our life. We can choose to lean in, yield and be present, to connect and unite with everything inside and around us with curiosity instead of expectations. As you move into this day, feel into the energy around you. Connect with the elements of nature. Let the sun, earth and sky serenade you as you flow guided by that wonderful teacher that resides within you. Rather than judge your day by how much you accomplish, see or do, choose to unite, connect and deepen into the mystery that is your life.

“We must work assiduously on the process of self-purification, for whatever we do to improve the world will be infused with the energy with which we do it”

Marianne Williamson

Dearest Yoga students,

Be diligent to keep yourself pure. Pure in thought, word, action and intention in every moment. Look inside, get quiet whenever you can. Create practices that allow you to go deep within and clear yourself of built up toxins in body and mind. Focus on the energy and intention you bring to your daily round. The outcome of whatever we do is always the sum of how we approach the task. “If we take care to honor and care for the roots of the tree, the branches and leaves take care of themselves”. Clear your energy, align with your highest intelligence and watch your day unfold and flow with the grace that is inherent in our divine destiny.

True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new!

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

–

Greetings dear yoga students,

One of my beloved teachers, Rolf Gates, once said to us, “Don’t allow your duties to become your burdens”. This saying has always stuck with me. Within the daily round of doing, taking care of, maintaining and getting things done, we can sometimes feel very burdened. While completing our yearly ritual today of making and jarring up our tomato sauce, this quote hovered over me like the fine sunshine that was streaming down from the sky. “Don’t allow your duties to become your burdens”. The hard work we put in today pleasures us all year long; when we open a jar in mid-winter, when we give some to someone having hard times or when we simply share a meal with family and friends. Doing something once a year creates a specialness, an excitement and my husband and I usually feel a “zest in creating” it (until right about now, when we are ready to collapse). But, it is in our daily duties that we also need to find that joy for a job well done . Whatever your duties consist of this week, try to look at them with a fresh attitude. If your duties are really become your burdens, try to change the way you do them, creating an atmosphere that promotes happiness or give yourself a special reward for completing the task. If your duties still seem heavy to carry, simply look back at the end of the week and find true happiness knowing your deeds were well done to the best of your ability with an intention of love and service for all.

–

The reward of a thing well done, is having done it.

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do… but how much love we put in that action.

Mother Teresa

Greetings dear yoga students,

In order for something to be sacred, a word, an action, an intention, it must come from the heart. Its not how much we do but how much love we put into the action. Mother Teresa continually tells us that to bring peace and love into the world we must first bring peace and love into our own homes, right where we are at present. Please consider joining me next Sunday, Aug 25th as we greet the day with a Yoga Fundraiser at Cedar Beach. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to our very own soup kitchen and food pantry, The Invited Inn, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Rocky Point. With our small contributions we can help to feed the hungry right here in our own community. If you can’t make the yoga class, I will be accepting donations through the month of August during regular classes. Scroll down for details.

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
Helen Keller

“Amazing isn’t it how some people see the basket half empty and others see it half full. Some see life hopeless; others hopeful. Even when things are less than perfect, if you can think of the good, the beautiful, the hopeful, you’ll be more than sustained–you’ll conquer“

–

Greetings dear. beautiful yoga students,

–

Remind yourself today that negative thinking will never be productive. When you find your mind turning to those dark places, take control and change your perspective on whatever situation is baffling you at the time. Think upon whatever is true, beautiful and right about what surrounds you. Experiment with this and put it into practice in small ways. If your day is going less than perfect, re-frame it in your mind. Our minds have the power to create and bring into fruition whatever it rests upon. Allow your mind to rest upon what it truly wonderful in your life right now….put it into practice and try to enjoy being a learner. You may just find that by focusing on the positive, the peace and joy of the divine spirit that lives in all things will be close at hand supporting, and guiding your day.

Only as a spiritual warrior can one withstand the path of knowledge. A warrior cannot complain or regret anything. His life is an endless challenge and challenges cannot possibly be good or bad. Challenges are simply challenges. The basic difference between an ordinary man and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge, while an ordinary man takes everythingas a blessing or a curse. – Don Juan

Greetings to all my peaceful warriors who week after week face the ultimate challenge of coming face to face with their bodies, minds and spirits on their yoga mats.

Breathe in the beautiful energy of summer and be present to all the love that surrounds you.
