Yoga this Week – May 26, 2014 – Happy Memorial Day!

May 26, 2014 amyperri2 3 Comments

True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic.

It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost,

but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.
Arthur Ashe

Greetings dear yoga students,

Hoping this email finds you enjoying a peaceful Memorial Day Holiday as we honor those that have fought in service to our country. If we allow service to be at the center of our lives; in our work, families and communities, our lives will have true meaning and our dharma (one’s righteous duty or virtuous path) will surely be fulfilled.

Hanuman – The Monkey God

Hanuman is known as a powerful example of true devotion and service. He is worshiped as a symbol of physical strength, fierce perseverance and devotion. In the epic tale of the Ramayana he overcomes ordeals, obstacles and fear enabling him to perform supernatural feats in order to save his master, Rama’s wife, Sita; all in the honor of service.

Become aware of where or who you are meant to serve in this lifetime, connect to your dharma. Life is fleeting, our greatest accomplishments are those of the heart , so put your energy into serving your fellow human being and although it may not be dramatic, rest assured it is true heroism in its purist form

“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.

“One cannot step twice in the same river, for fresh waters are forever flowing”

Heraclitus

May this quote remind us that our futile thoughts of reliving past experiences keep us from being in the present. Approaching your yoga, your commitments and your day with an open mind, heart and fresh perspective will allow you learn the lessons from the past and move forward in your practice and life with hope, enthusiasm and open-mindedness. Enjoy and find comfort in the fresh waters that are forever flowing within you and around you. Jai!!

“In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins – not through strength, but through persistence”

~Buddha

Hari Om Dearest Yoga Students,

Hoping this message finds you enjoying the first signs of the new season that surely awaits us. Think about the perseverance and patience that nature is gifted with. The small bulbs that wait silently underground, the perennials that lay dormant waiting for the cues that it is time to begin their work of opening, pushing, growing up out of the dark earth into the light. Nature does not give up, it finds a way to regenerate. The natural world knows what needs to be done and does not question its role in its lifetime. Experiencing the persistent and reliable cycles of nature fills me with hope, joy and faith that we too can rise above our difficult, dormant or hard times and shine in all our glory when the time is right.

It doesn’t just take talent, intellect or luck for great people to do great things; Most often, it is simply the persistence and perseverance of doing the next right thing, showing up and suiting up, waiting patiently when we have exhausted our efforts, or getting on the yoga mat in spite of ourselves. We too must learn the lesson of persistence as we confront situations in our lives where we are either forced to wait or forced to gather all our faith to keep hanging on day in and day out, dangling on the edge of vulnerability. We are all capable of greatness in our own unique way.

The Yoga Sutras tell us is it the obstacles that lead us into a deeper understanding of ourselves which in turn allows to become deeply connected to others as well as the divine force that flows in and out of everything. Directly confronting our difficulties with clarity, compassion and persistence creates freedom. Freedom in knowing you are never really trapped in any situation. For today, see if you can change your perspective to any “rocks” that are in your stream. Stay focused, do the next right thing, however small it may seem, and try and find the lesson, the jewel that is hidden within. Today, be persistent in your journey towards balance, freedom, peace and serenity. Flow within the river of your life, patient, strong and free.

Sorry for any inconvenience…

“There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen” Rumi

–

How often to get quiet enough to hear beyond words. Can we stop and be still long enough to hear to rustling of the wind, the drops of rain, your footsteps on the path? Go inside of yourself for even a few uninterrupted moments and you may begin to hear sacred sounds, feel an inner vibration, or sense a calm presence that is beyond words. One of my favorite Rumi poems speaks of this phenomenon.

—

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other” doesn’t make any sense

–

As we allow that voice that is beyond judgment to speak without words, we find the very freedom and serenity we long for and we can meet in the field of infinite possibility. Be open to new ideas of being (and new schedules). Allow yourself space to sit in silence so you can cultivate the fine art of listening and try to hear beyond words, beyond ideas, beyond separateness allowing your soul to “lie down in that grass” for a while.

“The things that matter most in our lives are not fantastic or grand. They are the moments when we touch one another.” ~ Jack Kornfield

Greetings Dearest Yoga Students,

Hoping this email finds you well and enjoying this first day of extended light. Energy, renewal and rejuvenation is in the air. Snow is melting, days are longer and winter is surely drawing to a close (we hope). Take time in each day to ponder those things that matter most in your life: The everlasting possessions of the heart. Scan back through your memory bank and notice the times that stand apart. Notice the feeling tone of times when you made a true connection with another human being, whether it be through a loving encounter, being that shoulder to cry on or being the one doing the crying. It may be times when you simply felt deeply connected on a level that could not be expressed with words. We are meant to connect, to engage and help each other in this lifetime. It may be something as small as a smile in passing, a heart felt phone call or a visit to a friend in need. Don’t hesitate to connect. Listen to your heart, trust your hunches and allow the small acts of kindness to give your life purpose, happiness and meaning.

Yoga this Week – March 2, 2014

March 2, 2014 amyperri2 8 Comments

When you do yoga postures, surrender to the moment, be in the moment, don`t worry about weather you can touch your toes or not, just experience the process.
Then try to carry this attitude into the rest of your day, away from tension, guilt and anxiety.
Experience is the door to the here and now.

Amrit Kala

Experience the process. Everything is a process. The process is the road we walk from here to there. When we are truly present as our life unfolds, worry, tension, guilt and anxiety take a back seat. Surrender to this moment, try not to try too hard to shape it into something it is not or something you think it should be. The process will reveal more of what you are supposed to learn, what you need to do and where this path you are on is leading. Let go and allow yourself to simply experience the process (even if it is a difficult one). knowing with true presence and awareness, the road you walk is leading you to higher ground.

“If we go with the river, the energy of a thousand mountain streams will be with us, filling our hearts with courage and enthusiasm
. If we resist the river, we will feel ranked and tired as we tread water in the same place”.

Elizabeth Lesser

Greetings dearest yoga students,

Hoping this email finds you enjoying sunshine! Allow yourself to flow with life today. Let go of your perceived control and try to be okay with the uncertainty that this human life is destined to experience. Remember that the goal in life is not to achieve some kind of concrete guarantee of future outcomes, but think of it as more of a journey towards a relaxed attitude toward the truth; that we really never know what the future will hold. Pema Chodron tells us that “a real cause of suffering is not being able to tolerate uncertainly – and thinking that it’s perfectly sane, perfectly normal, to deny the fundamental groundlessness of being human”. This “groundlessness” does not have to have a negative connotation or be something to fear. We can walk each day with faith, do the next right thing that is in front of us and relax into the mystery. Our life may unfold to surpass our wildest dreams if we just dare to let go of the shore and flow down that river. It is in this forward flow that; “The energy of a thousand mountain streams will be with us, filling our hearts with courage and enthusiasm” allowing us to truly enjoy and be present for the scenery of this special day.
