*Beach Yoga extended till Sept 21st. This werk Time changes to 615pm!
Namaste dear friends,
Hope this email finds you well. I am extending the beach classes until the Autumn equinox on the 21st. That leaves three beach gatherings left before we let go of Summer and move Wednesday night back into the yoga room and zoom. Our habit is holding on…the practice teaches us how to let go. Not easy but so necessary. Hope you can join us.
Just a reminder that our beach yoga class begins promptly at 6:45pm.
Please try to arrive to the parking lot 10 minutes early. If you arrive late and you have a parking pass you can park right outside the guard rail and meet us down at the beach.
It’s goingbto be nice and cool with Temps in high 70s…whooooo. See you on the sand
Namaste dear beach yoga enthusiasts
Due to the inclement weather coming into our area I am postponing our beach yoga class till tomorrow night at 7 at Beech road beach. We should be able to see and feel the incoming July full moon as its Supposed to be clear skies. Hope to see you on the beach tomorrow night!
Namaste
*PLEASE NOTE: TUESDAY & FRIDAY MORNINGS ARE BEINGING AT 9AM FOR THE SUMMER MONTHS*
Greetings dear yoga students,
“She began to realize that identifying her practice with things that could be lost [advanced postures or deep states of meditation], would always leave her susceptible to fear anything that could be taken away through sickness, aging or life circumstances, was not a very wise thing to stand on. It was then that she realized the only security lay in using her yoga practice to tether her awareness to the part of herself that was and is eternal. ” Donna Farhi
Avidya – Spiritual Ignorance
Asmita – Ego – Persona -False Self
Raga – Attachment to Pleasure
Dvesa – Aversion to Pain
Adhinivhesa – Fear of Death/Loss
These Kleshas or misperceptions are basically the core confusion of what is permanent with what is impermanent and the suffering we cause ourselves when we try to hold on to these impermanent things. We all have fear of losing things we hold dear. It may be loved ones, our jobs, our health, our strength, our physical appearance or the myriad of ego driven personas we believe ourselves to be. The yoga sutras tell us that if we are aware of these Kleshas at the root, and Do not allow them to take hold in our psyches, we can release their power. Finding rest within the eternal part of ourselves illuminates the truth that uncertainty is a core part of our existence. This understanding is the key that gives us the courage to see through false promises and lack of control so we can ultimately let go to live with freedom, peace and joy!
