Options for learning yoga at home were pretty scarce way back when I first started yoga.

The internet was still a long way away … I learned much of what I know about yoga from the source … India. I spent years travelling that magical place, and had several great yoga experiences along the way.

Achieving Life Balance Through the Mental Practice of Yoga

Most people probably think of physical postures when they hear the word "yoga." The physical practice is important and is one avenue to freedom and unity between the physical body, the mind, the emotions, the breath, and the spirit. I was a very physical kid and practiced yoga postures back then via my mom's Lillias yoga cards. I returned to the practice in1999 to help balance out the physical and mental stresses of life as an occupational therapist in a hospital.

Ishvara Pranidhana

Ishvarapranidhana means love and surrender to the divinity within the individual. In Sanskrit Ishvara = creative source, purusha, (the authentic self which isrnete al) pure consciousness, God, Goddess or Supreme Guru. Pranidhana = with sincerity, dedication and devotion, practicing the presence, surrendering to the fruits of practice. I like to interpret it as deep platonic love for the creative, source of pure consciousness that is bigger and more powerful than us. Why should we have a problem with surrendering to our own serene, innate, luminous force that lives inside us?r

Let's begin with what a pendulum is...simply stated, a pendulum is a weight hanging from a fixed point. When pulled and released, the force of gravity and inertia create movement. However, when no force is inflicted on the weight something begins to happen naturally, energy moves the weight with a little help from the unconscious mind. In Chakra Balancing, the pendulum is held over one of the seven major Chakras (wheel or disk) and the energy from this source. The energy level will reveal balance, a block or imbalance by the way the pendulum is moving.

Expanding & Contracting: Trust Life's Process

In yoga, we learn to tune into our breathing and let our bodies expand and contract around the breath. And the only way to stay healthy is to allow our breathing to be steady, consistent and natural. If we hold the breath in, or out, we cut ourselves off from life source energy. So the out-breath must be respected as fully as the in-breath, and well as the other way around. We all recognize the value of breathing in- to provide ourselves with oxygen and energy. But how often do we honor the value of the exhale, allowing us to release toxins and purify the blood.

Not just a Russian Circus Audition - Using Yoga To Help You Focus, Concentrate and Lose Weight

There are a number of wellness practices that can lead to an increased sense of purity and vitality. Since the modern diet, which is centered around convenience, speed and mass production often does not correlate to food that is vitalizing and full of nourishment. Since we are very unprotected by the government to regulate cleanliness and health for the food industry, we are left to our own devices to find food that gives us life and strength.

Whenever I think back to the times when my life was a struggle, there was always an element of me trying to force something.

There is so much talk about The Secret and the Law of Attraction these days, yet I think a fundamental element of the process of creation has been glossed over, or lost entirely.
