“Yoga is an internal practice. The rest is just a circus.”
–Sri K. Pattabhi Jois
Breathe. Invite. Welcome. Listen. Feel. Accept. Open. Sense. Observe.
These are some of the essential practices at the heart of Yoga. Whether we are sitting behind the wheel of our car, standing in line at the market, or upside down in headstand–connect with awareness and breath. Anything that allows us to be more aware of ourselves, to feel a connection to ourselves and life, is Yoga.
This month I invite you to practice tuning into awareness, your “inner being-ness,” with a welcoming sense of acceptance for all your daily experiences either on the mat or off the mat.
“Practice becomes firmly grounded when continued for a long time with devotion and right action.”
–Yoga Sutra 1.14
Check the link below for a short (10 min) video designed to help mobilize your major joints and spine. It is a “feel good” sequence, great for first thing in the morning, or before going to bed.
See you on the mat!
