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.

“Shall I tell you what I find beautiful about you?

You are at your very best when things are worst”

Quote from “Starman” movie

Utkatasana (chair pose) exemplifies the amazing ability of the human spiirt to rise up and find the strength, grace and power we didn’t even know we had. We have all had experiences where the bottom seems to fall out from underneath our life; a devastating phone call comes or some unexpected turn of events sends life into a tailspin. It is at precisely these times, when help seems to come out of nowhere; people organize themselves to help, families let go of their differences to work together for the common goal, friends come from all directions. It is at our worst, that we become our very best.

If you have a moment today, take chair pose for a few breaths. Breathe into the grounding at your feet, feel how your heart lifts and your hands reach up toward the sky. Embodying this powerful pose allows us to experience our own power and also the source of power around us that enables us to lift ourselves up and bask in the light and love that is always there, either to ignite our own spirits or maybe even more importantly, to lift others up. Thich Nhat Hahn says “No Mud, No Lotus” which means that we must go through the dark, the struggles, the sticky stuff to reveal our true beauty. In the depths of the winter, dig deep and reach high. Spring is surely on its way and we await its coming with joy, strength and resolve. Meanwhile, enjoy the snow!!

Yoga this Week – January 19, 2014

January 19, 2014 amyperri2 2 Comments

Greetings Dear Yoga Students,

When you are discontent, you always want more, more, more. Your desire can never be satisfied. But when you practice contentment,

you can say to yourself, ‘Oh yes – I already have everything that I really need.’
Dalai Lama

Raga (Unnecessary Want) or Desire

The Third Klesha of the Tree of Misperception

Raga expresses itself by making demands. We want something today because it was pleasant yesterday, not because we really need it today. We want things we do not have. What we do have is not enough and we want more. We want to keep what we are asked to give away. This is raga. Think of it as a longing which turns into a desire which turns into an obsession which leads to dissatisfaction with reality. Desire can be gross, subtle or hidden; as can all the Kleshas. Addiction to anything (substance abuse, gambling, food, etc) is Raga at its most gross form. A subtler form of raga would be a nagging discontent that tells us we constantly need more to be happy. It is like the donkey that chases the carrot dangling from a string just in front of him that he will never be able to eat because he doesn’t see the string is fixed on a pole attached to its own head.

Raga keeps us in a state of ever wanting because even when we get what we think we want, the misperception of RAGA tells us it is not enough. The way out of Raga is to practice Santosha, contentment, one of the Niyamas ( yogic ethics) outlined in Patanjali’s Sutras. Santosha tells us that we all that we need in this moment to be happy. Look around and within and take notice of all you have to be thankful for. Happiness is not necessary getting everything you want but acknowledging and expressing gratitude for what you already have. Santosha burns through the fires of Raga because when we realize we are blessed just to be alive in this moment and recognize the impermanence of all that is given to us, our wanting and desirous behavior ceases to impede our path to serenity. Be Still and Know…in this moment…you have all you need to be whole, to be happy and to be free.
“When at peace and content with oneself and others
(Santosha), supreme joy is celebrated.

The Kleshas

Asmita – Ego

Our Ego is a complicated part of our psyche. On one hand is it the part of the right brain that allows us to take action, to make plans and to accomplish what we desire in our lifetime. It drives us forward. On the other hand, it is when the ego side of us begins to attach our existence to what we do, what we have, the past or the future, or any other outer impermanent feature of our lives, that it causes suffering. When our ego begins to whisper “you are not good enough as you are, you need to do more, be more. to be whole” is when it begins to increase anxiety and creates trouble inside ourselves and to others around us. The hunger for control and outer validation never gets satisfied and we remain in a state of depletion when we let the ego guide our days.

–

Yogic practices greatly soften the ego’s hold on us, Ethical Practices such as: nonviolence, truthfulness, nonstealing, nonexcess, nonpossessiveness, purity, contentment, self-discipline, self-study and surrender to the divine plan as well as yoga asana, breath work and meditation all bring us closer to the reality of life and away from misperception. In walking a spiritual path we keep our ego in check because these guidelines create inner tranquility and equanimity, we stay in the stream of goodness and out of self-seeking, ego driven rewards.

When something doesn’t feel quite like “you”, check in with your intentions. Is the goal to attain some outer praise, avoid some inner pain or simply satisfy the need to feel validated? If so, stop and breathe into the present moment, align yourself to what’s really important and let go of the rest. Most of all, stay on the path that feels true to you, and only you, stepping away from fear and into the light of your true self.

I wish all of you a happy, healthy, joy filled 2014! In keeping with the tradition of studying yogic philosophies in the first part of the year, for the next several weeks, we will be focusing on part of the Yoga Sutras called The Kleshas. The Kleshas are known to be the misperceptions that keep us bound and are often depicted as a tree that at the root of all our suffering is Avidya (spiritual ignorance) or misperception; believing the unreal to be the real or the impermanent to be permanent.

Avidya is the core klesha from which all the others arise.

Avidya – Ignorance

Asmita – Ego

Raga – Attachment to Pleasure

Dvesa – Aversion to Pain

Adhinivhesa – Fear of Death

–

Think about the Kleshas as all the misperceptions you have gathered in the course of your lifetime. Some are born in our childhood, some we have been born into this life with. Some are very subtle and some are very gross. The yoga sutras tell us that if we are aware of these Kleshas at the root, and to not allow them to take hold in our psyches, we can release their power. Together over the next few weeks, we will explore yogic tools that help us to find freedom from our Kleshas.

Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

Mother Theresa

Hari Om Dearest Yoga Students,

The end of the year is upon us. It is a time of deep reflection for most. A time to look back with compassion and illuminate the path we have walked. This time is a unique opportunity to reflect, accept and let go. You have changed, you have been changed by the experiences you have traveled through and the obstacles you have been confronted with; you do not need to hold on for the past will always be part of who you are today. The most important thing we can do is learn and let it go. In order to live the life we are meant to live, we must make space by releasing the past. If you find yourself holding on, bless whatever situation you are at odds with, trust that all of it was destined to happen and let yourself move forward, you will move forward non the less, so why not go with the flow of your life. All we have is NOW…Let us begin

I hope you are finding time to truly feel the precious moments in your life as they pass. As we come into this last week of the year, take time to reflect with compassion on all the places you have been. Reflect on those things that remained the same and the things that have changed; within you and around you. Allow yourself some quiet time to go within and connect to the silence amidst the rush of comings and goings. Thank you to all the beautiful yogi goddesses that filled the room on Winter Solstice night! It was so heart warming to hear all of your intentions and watch you all connect to each other as a spiritual community!!

“All you need is love. The Beatles said it, and the Bible said it, and every wise saint who has ever spoken has sad it….Sure, there are other great things in life: knowledge, and power, and spiritual understanding. “But these shall pass away” (Paul writes in the New Testament). “Where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away…And these shall remain: Faith, Hope, and Love. But the greatest of these is Love”

Elizabeth Lesser from “Broken Open”

Amidst the comings and goings and rush of the Holiday Season, take time to remember what is truly important. It is love that binds us to our family, not blood. It is Love that connects us to our community, not just geography. It is Love that connects us to our true essence, not intellectual knowledge. Become aware of any tendency to create that picture perfect holiday, the one we see in media or read about in books. Open your heart, feel into that everlasting quality of love that surrounds you and is inside you. As effortlessly as the snow falls from the sky and returns once again to its source, allow your love to flow and float knowing that truly “Love is All You Need”.
