September is Yoga Month




September is Yoga Month

How will you celebrate it?

There is so much worthy of my sharing at this time on this blog site. Last month I spent ten days at the Kripalu Center in Stockbridge, MA attending three programs –

Todd Norian, Ashaya Yoga, https://www.ashayayoga.com
Dr Roger Jahnke, QiGong and Tai Chi, http://www.feeltheqi.com

I create handouts for my yoga classes, sometimes on yoga, mine or others, sometimes on things floating across the screen of my mind. Here is part a handout dated August 30th -

Practice your yoga with integrity. Never hurting, always creative.
--- 
Let the practice live in you.
Let the practice be a purification so you release into a sense of your innate, true wholeness.
~~~
Share your light.  Don’t hide it.
Find the stillness -  And let it speak to you.
~~~
Can you say “I am here.”
with a sense of conviction and strength,
with a sense of authority and authenticity,
with a sense of willingness to explore unknown territory?
Then walk forward allowing presence to light your path.
~~~~~
Question:  If your purpose was to live in alignment with your highest truth what would that be?
~~~~

In the rawness there is light, truth, and opening.
In the breath there is the way.
~~~~ 

Mastering your energy is coming into alignment and coherence with it.
It is energetic intelligence.  Reality comes to us in levels and layers, waves, and rhythms.
We are an expression of the infinite in the here, now.
The quality of your life is how you are experiencing it here, now.
We are playing in the relative field of time.
~~~
The path of effortlessness is through effort. The universe is a collective dance.  Effort and effortlessness are part of it. In the state of integration there is effortlessness.  The challenge is the path.  There is intelligence in the challenge. Do what life is asking you to do.
True wisdom is beyond evaluation. (The Path of Radical Self Mastery program – Sattva Yoga).
~~~

Yoga is the investigation of purpose, meaning, and path.
It is coming into the understanding of the imperatives of being.

~~~
“Find that place where your deepest joy and the world’s hunger meet!!”
~~~

Enlightenment is understanding that you are love.
