Self Practice Series: part three ~ Hatha

Ha means ☀️ tha means 🌕

Hatha is the mother of all yoga styles, from which all other styles have descended from.

Hatha is the foundation of what all Yoga practices are about - a tool for balancing the energies of Yin and Yang ☯️ within the physical body and cultivating stability and ease in the body.

In this video we focus on holding each pose for 3 - 5 calm breaths.

Once the body is warmed up and prepared through vinyasa practice of Surya Namaskar, (shown in previous video).

We now move into ‘holding of a pose for a sustained period of time with calm breathing and focused awareness (dharana) to build stability and ease in the body and a calm and clear mind.

Each posture has specific benefits, so poses can be chosen according to the needs and goals of the practitioner.

The postures in this video are beneficial for all bodies and can be done in many variations according to the capacity of the individual.

Standing sequence
Trikonasana
Pasarita padthothanasana
Eka pada padangustasana
Parsvothasana

Arm balances
Bakasana

Try this fun challenge and do what you can.
Over time you will get better and better 🙏🤓

A precious little jewel I found while cleaning out my phone. It warms my heart! This sweet younger self…

This version of me has no idea what coming for her. If I could go back in time I would tell her that it will turn out the way it should in the end.

To know life in the way I do know, is so drastically different to then. I honor the sweet younger version of me, singing away on a rickety little guitar in lockdown in Rishikesh, India in July, 2020.

To this version on me, I bless her for nothing could prepare nor prevent her from what she had to go through to become who she is now.

Self Practice series: part two ~ Vinyasa

Vinyasa means flow in Sanskrit.

We can understand this as flowing breath and body together.

When we focus the mind onto the present. We are bringing our awareness from mind to body.

This union of mind with breath and body is the state of Yoga.

Vinyasa yoga is a good way to start your self practice. We can use Vinyasa yoga to move out of a mind that oscillate between past and future and flow into the present state for a period of time.

Using your breath as a focus point for your mind to rest, naturally brings the mind into the present moment and with sustained focus you can enter into a meditative state through Vinyasa Yoga.

You can add any sequence of postures that suit your health needs, linking hatha holds with vinyasa flows to keep building Agni, (fire) heat in the body, burning out toxins and consciously moving through each part of the body.

Save this video and try this vinyasa sequence with Warrior 1 + 2 with side variations.

As your go through this practice a few times linking each movement with the associated inhale or exhale you will get to know your own unique rhythm.

Once you know the sequence on your own and gain an ease with the movements, you won’t need to think about the sequence as much and can simply flow into the breath and body somatic experience.

This feels so good and the body and mind feel cleanse and clear after a few rounds of the sequence.

Start with 3 rounds with slow, conscious breathing throughout.

Then tell me your experience! 🙃🙏🏽🩵

‘Om Pancha Mahabhuta’

A depiction of ‘The Self’ before physical form through the atomic states of nature… Akasha, Vayu, Agni, Apas and Prithvi.

How can I be contained when I am an extension of Pancha Mahabutha into the physical world?

I love this piece so much! 🩵 ☺️

It invites a calm confidence into my being, a knowing that I can rest in my own nature.

May all being be free from suffering

Mantra - heart singing 🎵 an effortless transmutation of dense heavy emotions alchemize into lightness and light.

Mantra singing is a simple yet potent and powerful technique beyond measure🎵🕉️

There is at times, rage, grief, and pain that we all feel in our own way just living in a world full of polarity.

Everyday children are born innocent and pure into a world where inhumane acts by evil men runs like a horror movie in real time across the span of our lives.

The only thing evil can never touch is the human spirit.
That is what they fear and wish to destroy more than anything.

Evil is not power, it feeds off of the power of humanity. It steals life from the living, torments and lives to controls and takes from the innocent. It creates lies and illusions to control our minds feed off of the human race.

Knowledge is power. Know thyself.

The more we know where true, real power comes from the less we fall prey to the false power of our evil and corrupt leaders.

True power comes from the human spirit. When we connect to our hearts, we open the electro-magnetic field that radiates out and protects us from becoming cold, harden or demoralized.

Keep stoking your inner fire 🔥 Your light is meant to shine in the dark! That is where the light is needed the most!

You matter. Your heart matters. Your desires matter. Your peace matters. Your ability to alchemize your pain into power matters!

As long as we keep the light on, there is no reason to be afraid of the dark. For darkness cannot consume light. It is the light that consumes the dark.
