Just Decide to Go
March 2005
Deciding to go is the first step on the journey to becoming. Unfortunately, it's also the step usually not taken. Most people never decide to go. They
never make the decision to take their yoga practice or their life to the next level. Inversions, like Handstand, can empower us to soar.
Lessons from Cirque Du Soleil
February 2005
Watching the super-human athletic performances and the incredible beauty of the Cirque du Soleil performers is a truly inspirational experience. The
beauty of the performance is a direct result of a rigorous and disciplined training regimen and passionate dedication by the performers. Develop
discipline with Hero Pose.
Bringing Mindfullness into Daily Life
November 2004
When our lives revolve around the past and/or future, we give away our power. Walking meditation helps bring awareness, clarity, and tranquility into your daily life. When you walk in the present, you seize your power.
Slow Moving in a Fast Paced World
October 2004
We forget that time is nothing more than a human creation. While the invention of the clock has created a sense of order, it has also caused us to become obsessed with “getting it done” rather than simply being. Poses like Sideways Extension Pose (Parsvottanasana) give us an opportunity to integrate slowness and balance into our daily lives.
Journey into Self-realization – the Ultimate Aim of Yoga
August 2004
When we have emotional stability and clarity of mind, we are able to journey into self-realization, the ultimate aim of yoga. Restorative poses like Corpse Pose (Savasana) remove physical and mental fatigue, relax and sooth the sympathetic nervous system, and relieve stress. Practice this pose to experience inner silence and to find the answers you seek.
Stop Taking Yourself So Seriously
July 2004
We all experience stress, delays and agitation throughout our days. When you change your thoughts of stress in any given moment, you truly seize your power and effectively deal with daily voice. Practice Boat Pose (Navasana) to learn how not to take yourself too seriously.
Peace is Never More than an Instant Away
June 2004
Unexpected upheavals help make room for the act of surrender and from that surrender comes peace. Legs-Up-the-Wall Pose, (Vipariti Karani) reminds you that peace is never more than an instant away.
Believing You Can
May 2004
Our beliefs can be the most powerful forces in our yoga practices and our lives. Practice believing you will achieve Cow face pose, (Gomuhkasana) each and every time and you will literally go into the state of it being true.
Go Back to the Beginning
October 2003
Meditation is a state of timelessness where everyday concerns have no relevance. In being like a tiny little being with no eyes, no ears, no voice, doing nothing, be nothing, floating in a sea of darkness, you learn to let go and grow.
Have a Mind that is Open but Attached to Nothing
September 2003
If you had a choice between two magic wands – one that would give you any physical thing you desire and one that would give you peace for the rest of your life – which would you choose? Crow Pose offers you the opportunity to have a mind that is open to everything and attached to nothing.
Perfectly Perfect
August 2003
Do you strive to be perfect? Do you spend hours trying to make a project at work or at home just right? Practice Half Moon Pose to learn how to work for balance instead of perfection.
An Unlearning Process
July 2003
Our beliefs are like unquestioned commands, telling us how things are, what’s possible, and what impossible, what we can and cannot do. They shape every action, every thought, and every feeling that we experience. Practice the pose dedicated to the sage, Vasistha, to practice unlearning limiting beliefs.
Relax, Do Less, Go with the Flow
June 2003
The human body is a masterpiece of ingenuity. Without having to think about it, our heart beats about 100,000 times a day. Practice relaxing and doing less to move forward with astonishing power and grace.
Appreciation
May 2003
In a culture that emphasizes results, it’s easy to care more about the outcome than the journey. Warrior 1 and Sideways Extension Pose help you recognize when you get caught up in the mechanics and how you can learn to live in the now.
You Have To Earn It
April 2003
Imagine that a wealthy man dies and leaves an enormous fortune to his son. Does this ensure that the son will feel fulfilled and satisfied with his life? Explore Wide-Angle Forward Bend and Marcihi’s Pose 3 to better understand why fulfillment must be earned.
Creating Balance
March 2003
Achieving good balance is one of the most important and relatively easy things we can do for our bodies. Discover how achieving physical balance in yoga poses like Tree Pose and Standing Leg Raise will lead to balance in all areas of your life.
