Yoga this Week – December 8, 2013 – Note Change in Winter Solstice Celebration

Greetings Dear Yoga Students,
We all know that change is inevitable, but yet we still cling to the known, the familiar, the comfortable.  George Harrison once said, “If we aren’t changing, we aren’t growing”.  Everything that grows must change.  It is just as important to our well being to accept and embrace change as it is to breathe.  Enjoy the moments of your day, embrace all that is in your life with enthusiasm knowing that you will never pass through this day again.  Be open to the shifting landscapes, the rise and fall of emotions, the ebb and flow of energy.  When the waves of change seem to be harsh and the seas are rough around you, remember that you are part of the ocean of movement and that, inevitably, we are being led towards are true direction.

“Clay is molded into vessels and because of the space where there is nothing you can carry water.  Space is carved out from a wall and because of the place where there is nothing you can receive light. 
Be empty, and you will remain full…”

Greetings dear yoga students,
Are you having a good day?  If you are taking the time to read this email, chances are that you are having a “good” day.   It is very helpful to remember that at any given moment our entire world could be turned upside down and reality as we know it may vanish forever.  Examine how you define a “good” day.  Are you safe, healthy and of sound mind?  Is your perception clouded with some vision of what a good day is “supposed” to look like?     If something has disturbed your piece of mind, work at becoming empty.  Empty of the past, empty of expectations and empty of judgments.  In every moment, we have the opportunity to refine our minds, become present and open up to that grace that is always waiting to fill us up with its light.  We are vessels that are meant to channel the finest quality energy to ourselves and others, however, a channel needs to be clear in order for that energy to flow.  Empty, carve out space, clarify your thoughts and be open to this perfectly “good” day.

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 on their path.  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.

**The road is all paved and ready so classes can   be held in our cozy, warm  yoga room; yay!***

“Without intention, all these postures, these breathing practices, meditations, and the like can become little more than ineffectual gestures. When animated by intention, however, the simplest movement, the briefest meditation, and the contents of one breath cycle are made potent.”

                                                                      Donna Farhi

 

Good Morning Dearest Yoga Students,

It feels wonderful to be wide awake on this glorious November morning.    Setting an intention can be extremely powerful, not only for your yoga practice but for your day, your week or your life.  With an intention set, our mind seems to calm down and we can rest in the fact that we know we are doing the right thing; that we are on course.

Whatever you are doing today, after reading this, stop for a moment or two and see if an intention for this day comes up for you.  It could be an intention to remain calm if difficulties are awaiting you.  It could be an intention to release judgement or cultivate joy inside yourself.  Whatever you wish for yourself, try setting an intention to cultivate that quality inside.  If you want to be happier, intend to be happy.  If you want more friends, intend to be friendly.  If you want more serenity, intend to act serene.  It may sound to simplistic, but it actually is.  With the full moon energy tonight,  you may want to go a step further and write your intention down to make it more concrete, the written word has much power.  As you move into your next task for the day after you read this whether you are going to do laundry, rake leaves, make breakfast for your family;  do it with an intention in your mind and notice what arises.  Live your life by design….try repeating the following mantra to keep you on your way:

“I am flowing down the river of my life, steering myself in the right direction”

Yoga this Week – Some temporary changes – Please read!

**MORNING YOGA WILL BE HELD AT AN ALTERNATE LOCATION FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS **  CONTACT ME DIRECTLY FOR DETAILS…**.NO MONDAY EVENING OR FRIDAY MORNING CLASSES THIS WEEK**

 

Greetings dearest Yoga Students

Hope this email finds you well.  As you all must know by now, chanting is one of the most enjoyable parts of my practice.  It engages all parts of the self; body, mind and spirit.  Chanting and singing with ShaktiPath a good part of this weekend has left me today with a resonance of peace, joy and unexpected energy. It was such a pleasure to see familiar as well as new faces connecting to the power of music and chant.   Much gratitude for your support.  Many more chances in the near future to join in.

 

Tuning into vibrational energy has a meditative quality that connects you to others and yourself on a very deep level; a level that must be experienced to understand. Our physical yoga practice has this amazing quality as well.  As we move through the confines of our bodies on an energetic level we go into a deeper level of ourselves; we begin to experience the boundless, eternal light vibration that we are.  Be present to this vibrational energy as you walk through your days.  Feel it in your voice, in the wind, in another’s eyes and connect with compassion to all the beauty that is available to you in the small and not so obvious places.

Yoga this Week - February 12, 2012

Greetings dear yoga students,

Hope this evening finds you honoring your inner light, even though the darkness abounds all around us.  Honor the seasons, the coming and going of light and be present.    Have the awareness to savor the sights, sounds, and aromas of each passing day as we move towards the darkest day of the year.

A dear friend of mine is taking up her yearly collection of coats for the needy which will be distributed in New York City the week before Thanksgiving.  I am asking for donations of winter coats of any kind but in particular, MENS COATS, to be brought in prior to Thanksgiving week.  If you have any old coats in your closets that aren’t being used, please consider bringing them to class and I will deliver to my fiend, Mary.  “Alone we can do some, but together we can do so much”.

Co-Creating Your Life – A Vision Board Workshop

Wednesday, October 30th 7-9pm.

 –

“Everyone has a spirit that can be refined, a body that can be trained in some manner, a suitable path to follow. You are here to realize your inner divinity and manifest your innate enlightenment.”

   

Enlightenment happens, not in some far away distant esoteric place, but in the everydayness of life.  Enlightenment is an appropriate response to your inner callings and a willingness to act from your highest, intuitive self.   A Vision Board is a collection of images, words, affirmations or drawings that serve as a spirit-led guide for discovering and acknowledging what your soul is yearning for.  The universe wants to support your efforts to live a life filled with joy, abundance, adventure and purpose.   It is within the effort of creating the Vision that brings clarity as well as focus to your intentions so you can begin to live your life by your own design, free of fear based judgments or cultural pressures.

–

This workshop will consist of a centering meditation, a simple writing exercise and creating our boards.  Each participant is asked to bring 3 to 5 magazines of random genres to be cut up and shared, a picture of yourself that projects joy and happiness, and a small journal or notebook.  All other supplies will be provided.

–

Cost is $20

–

Percentage of the proceeds will be donated to the Invited Inn Soup Kitchen in Rocky Point to align our visions with the energy of service.

The Goddess Sarasvati

Sara:  The one who gives the essence & Sva: of  our true Self

The Goddess Sarasvati is worshipped for her creativity, wisdom, purity and gentleness.   She is said to bestow eloquence, intelligence and artistic inspiration to all who meditate on her transcendental qualities.   Her calming peaceful presence reminds us of the great power of Shakti (the feminine energy that is said to be the catalyst of change and creation with love as the driving force) and the ultimate divine mother.  As this last day of Navrarti (the nine day festival celebrating the divine mother in all her forms) comes to a close, we honor Goddess Sarasvati  and call upon her to connect us to the essence of our own true, divine nature where all of these beautiful qualities have always, and will always exist.

“May the great river of Sarasvati overflow and grant us her grace”

“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart.  Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language.  Do not now look for the answers.  They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them.  It is a question of experiencing everything.  At present you need to live the question.  Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.”
                                    Rainer Maria Rilke
Greetings dearest yoga students,
Being at peace with the unknown is one of the greatest accomplishments we can acheive moment by moment.  To be “okay” with not knowing how things will turn out means we must first banish fear and replace it with faith.  Increasing our capacity for faith immediatly allows us to let go of our percieved control over our life.  Having faith that things will turn out alright enables us experience all of life without having to figure everything out.   Living the question means to let the answers be revealed when it is time so that you can remain in the present moment without anxiety. Many precious moments are squandered away overthinking situations that either have already happened or haven’t happened yet.   So try to LOVE the question that this day brings as if you were turning a corner on a beautiful mountain and be open to the beauty that the landscape of your life lays out before you.
