Happiness Program of the Art of Living- July 3-5, 2025

Why do I love teaching the Happiness Program of the Art of Living?
Because each course is a unique journey—never the same, always profound and fresh. Every time I teach, I find myself learning anew, receiving fresh insights, and being touched by grace.

I am deeply and eternally grateful to Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar—for this opportunity to teach, to serve, to witness the beauty of transformation, and to be an instrument in gently guiding others back to experience the radiance of their own magnificent SELF.

Despite the short notice and many friends and fellow practitioners being out of town or having prior commitments, we were still able to come together to celebrate and honor the International Day of Yoga 2025.

Special thanks to Teacher Jen of Ashtanga Yoga CDO and Gerry Burdas, consultant on regenerative agriculture/soil regeneration, who talked about the importance and the connection of earth’s health to our own health.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. I was caught up teaching and wasn’t able to take photos—so thank you, Mariese Vacalares, for sharing yours!

The True Meaning of Yoga.

Sage Patanjali defined yoga as the restraining of thought waves.

He compiled the Yoga Sutras - the aphorisms of yoga - in which he provides an eight-limbed approach for the well-being and purification of body, mind and soul.

This eight-limbed approach is not to be mistaken as a step-by-step approach, but a multidimensional approach, in which all eight limbs are practiced simultaneously.

These eight limbs are:

1 Yamas - the five social ethics

🔸 Ahimsa - Non-violence in action, speech and thoughts.

🔸 Satyam - Truthfulness in intention, remaining established in the higher truth.

🔸 Asteya - Non-stealing.

🔸 Brahmacharya - Divine conduct, celibate when single, faithful when married.

🔸 Aparigraha - Not accumulating things unnecessarily and not desiring things that belong to others.

2 Niyamas - the five personal ethics.

🔸 Saucha - cleanliness of the body and mind.

🔸 Santosha - contentment, remaining happy.

🔸Tapas - Austerity and self-discipline

🔸 Swadhyaya - Study of the Self, abiding in the Self

🔸 Ishwarapranidhana - Surrendering to God, honouring the Divine.

Yamas and its complement, Niyamas, represent a series of right living or ethical rules.

3 Asanas - yoga postures or postures.

4 Pranayamas - proper regulation of life force (prana) through certain breathing techniques.

5 Pratayahara - taking the senses inwards.

6 Dharana - one-pointed focus.

7 Dhyana - meditation.

8 Samadhi - the highest state of consciousness. This is possible to achieve during meditation 🧘‍♂️

International Yoga Day 2025

Every year on June 21, the world comes together to celebrate International Yoga Day, as declared by the United Nations General Assembly.

Yoga is an invaluable gift of the ancient Indian tradition, offering far more than just physical exercise. It is a holistic practice that unites body and mind, thought and action, nurturing harmony within ourselves and with the world around us.

In today’s fast-paced world, yoga remains a powerful tool for cultivating health, inner peace, and overall well-being. It invites us to reconnect—with our breath, with nature, and with the deep sense of oneness that lies at the heart of life.
