Yoga this Week – April 22, 2019

 

Greetings Dear Yoga Students,

**Reiki Healing Circle Tomorrow Evening, Tuesday at 7pm**

**The next Synergy Session that is set for Tuesday, May 21st is beginning to fill up, let me know if you would like to sign up.  Space is Limited**

Happy Earth Day!

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

Hoping this message finds you enjoying the amazing signs of spring that are popping up all around 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 signals and signs 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 Yoga Sutras tell us is it the obstacles that lead us into a deeper understanding of ourselves. 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 in your life.

“During pranayama the soul then can access intuitive perceptions of the divine realms“.

Sr. Droupadi

Dearest Yoga Students,

Our Breath is sacred.  When we become deeply  immersed in the practice of pranayama (breath awareness and control), the mind quiets and we are able to become receptive to that which our casual mind remains unconscious to.  The busy thoughts and our wound up nervous system unknowingly blocks our potential to tap in to the divine realms that are always available to us.   Breathing consciously brings peace of mind and calmness of body.  You can access this amazing tool anyplace and anytime, for the one thing that is always with you is your sacred breath.

Yoga this Week – April 8, 2019

Yoga is invigoration in relaxation. Freedom in routine.

Confidence through self control.

Energy within and energy without.

Ymber Delecto

This quote reminds me of the lesson in dualities we find in our yoga practice like grounding down to rise up or hugging in to shine out. At first glance, these may seem like opposing forces but in reality it is the opposite that manifests the desired result.

Being invigorated while remaining relaxed is a lesson in becoming awake.   Awake to all that is around and within us without having to do anything.  When we first consider the discipline of self- control, it may seem like an imposing act of self-denial but controlling our impulses and learning to trust our actions creates a simple confidence in our decision making. We can trust that we will act from a place of clarity and right thinking. And finally is it through cultivating our inner energy that we are able to send out the finest quality of energy to the world around us.

WOW, the response has been amazing so the yoga hike for tomorrow is full to capacity. Avalon Park instructed me to cap the group at 15 people.

If you have not pre registered for this hike you do not have a spot.

Due to the overwhelming response I’ve gotten I am planning to do another date later in the season. I will keep you posted.

Happy trails

“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.”

Albert Einstein

Greetings dearest yoga students,

It is my wish for you today that you find joy in creative expression and in the knowledge that you are a walking miracle.  You are here to express your uniqueness in your own unique way.  When you do a yoga pose (or anything else), seek not to mirror another’s outward expression or some preconceived notion of what it is supposed to look like.  Go inside,  feel the alignment, connect  and allow the pose to be expressed through YOU as only YOU can express it in the moment.  Find joy in the creative expression of your own body, breath and spirit and watch it transform your practice and your life.

Greetings Dear Ones,

Thank you all for your wishes healing.  I was pretty much on my back most of last week with fever, sinus infection and zero energy.  I am so grateful for the old adage; This too Shall Pass and thank goodness this is surely true.  This was my mantra last week along with much gratitude for having access to proper healthcare, a warm home and loving family taking care of me.  I am back!  Hope to see you this week.  There are some great workshops coming up.  Scroll down to check it out and let me know if you would like to join in.
