ASHTANGA YOGA 3 DAYS WORKSHOP IN PRAGUE WITH SATHU JOIS, daughter of Manju Jois. ALL LEVELS OF PRACTICE ARE WELCOME!
YOGA ISN'T MEANT TO FIX YOU OR TO TURN YOU INTO SOMEONE ELSE. It's meant to remind you that you're enough exactly as you are.
Let’s go back to the second Sutra of Patanjali: “Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind”. This is the main purpose of practicing Yoga (at least according to Patanjali’s Ashtanga Yoga): to make the mind still.
Being focused on the present moment, even for a little while, means freedom from overthinking the past and worrying about the future.
The difficulties we are facing on the mat are a preparation for the ones in real life. Truth is you must first learn the rules to break the rules.
Most of the rules in Ashtanga Yoga can be adapted to the individual and the different phases of their life. The more we advance the less rigid the practice becomes, the more our own intuition and inner wisdom come into play and allow us to make the practice “ours”.
After many years of practice for example, things like the temperature of the room, where we place our mat, how flexible or strong we feel on any given day or how well we perform don’t matter so much anymore. We just show up and do our practice. Our mind fluctuates less and less.
What is your experience..?
