in mind-body on 08/11/15

It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. E.E.Cummings Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage. Anais Nin Most of us think Courage is synonymous with bravery. In fact, dictionaries often use bravery as the very definition of courage. Historically however, courage derives from the Latin word Cor which means heart. It was the… View Post

Santosha: Root to Rise with the Five B’s

in yoga on 07/20/15

Like the lotus, live joyfully among the sorrows of the world. Parmahansa Yogananda Last week as I sat down to write about Santosha, I was side-tracked by the dramatic news story of the furling (taking down) of the Confederate flag from the South Carolina State House. The furling of this symbol of racism was a result of years of hard work… View Post

The Journey to Contentment

in yoga on 07/14/15

For most of us, when we think of contentment, we picture something like a beach, a cozy cabin, a warm fire, being surrounded by loved ones, or completely alone, but the idea is the same. We have our feet up, no worries, everything is peaceful and perfect. It is then we finally find contentment. Is this even realistic?  Is that even… View Post

Five Steps to Living Your Truth

in yoga on 06/29/15

Satya is a Sanskrit word meaning truth or reality.  Patanjali refers to it in verse 2.28 of the Yoga Sutras as the second of the five Yamas – a list of guidelines for “right living”.

Truth: We are Love

in meditation, yoga on 06/26/15

Last month, I discussed the difference between authenticity and truth. Authenticity is “the truth of bearing who you are”, I said. It’s the work of diving deep, peeling off layers to reveal your authentic self, your dharma. Truth is the scalpel that dissects and cuts away kleshas and samskaras to reveal our diamond self. But Truth is even bigger than… View Post

Yoga Cues & Quotes: Authenticity

in yoga on 05/25/15

Quotes on Authenticity  Why, when we know that there’s no such thing as perfect, do most of us spend an incredible amount of time and energy trying to be everything to everyone? Is it that we really admire perfection? No – the truth is that we are actually drawn to people who are real and down-to-earth. We love authenticity and… View Post

Authenticity: Bearing the Truth within Oneself

in Connect, yoga on 05/09/15

Krishna advising Arjuna It is better to strive in one’s own dharma than to succeed in the dharma of another. Nothing is ever lost in following one’s own dharma. But competition in another’s dharma breeds fear and insecurity. Krishna advising Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita. Inside each and every one of us is one true authentic swing… Somethin’ we was… View Post

10 Simple Ways to Detox

in activism, healing, meditation, natural health, yoga on 03/16/15

Overall wellness hinges on a dynamic balance of web-like interconnections, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. The human body is a fully interconnected organism, nothing working in isolation, and all parts affect each other. Chronic health problems are rooted in inadequate nutrition and detoxification inefficiency is due to lack of high vital nutrients. 1. Eat whole foods. If it… View Post

A Day in the Life of a Yoga Teacher: Lori Tindall

Our Day in the Life of a Yoga Teacher series continues with a teacher I am completely in awe of.  I am in awe of her strength, her vitality and constant commitment to being a human BEing rather than a human doing.  In spite of her battle with Common Variable Immune Deficiency, she has been a lifelong practitioner of yoga,… View Post

A human being is part of the whole, called by us “Universe,” a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest – a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole [of] nature in its beauty” — Albert Einstein, 1950  See  https://www.shareyoga.com/meditation/spirit/are-you-practicing-the-law-of-love/ #yoga #compassion #love #alberteinstein #consciousness
