🪷 Sutra 2.8: Duḥkha-anuśayī Dveṣa
~ Aversion that follows after pain ~

🌿 Where Rāga clings to what feels good, Dveṣa does the opposite — it pulls away from what once hurt. It’s not the pain itself, but the tightening after it, the learned resistance that sticks around even when the moment is safe.

You might notice Dveṣa when you:
• Avoid a situation because of a past negative experience
• Brace or tense before there’s a real threat
• Feel guarded with certain people or places
• Resist change because last time didn’t go well

✨ This week’s invitation:
Ask yourself—
“Am I protecting myself — or avoiding something that’s no longer a danger?” Even a small pause creates room to move with intention instead of habit. That’s where you step out of the cycle of rāga (reaching for what felt good) and dveṣa (turning from what felt bad) — and into the present moment as it actually is.

It’s Kyra’s ownership anniversary at RCY! 🥹 12 years of her steering this ship and shaping the community we all love. 🙏

If you’ve met Kyra, you know how special she is — how much heart, creativity, and care she pours into Revolution. And even if you don’t know her, you’ve felt her. She’s not one for the spotlight, but she’s everywhere: in the mandalas she painted for studio walls, in the little touches that make RCY feel like home, in the quiet hum of conversation, and the not-so-quiet laughter that fills our spaces. Her presence is felt in every corner.

Kyra’s vision has always been simple and powerful: a space where everybody is welcome, every body is included, and we all get to show up exactly as we are — to move, to breathe, and to foster wellness in our bodies and within ourselves.

We’re endlessly grateful for the day she took the studio’s helm, and for the countless lives she’s touched since and will continue to touch.

We love you, Kyra. Thank you for everything you are. ❤️

I came to Yoga quite unexpectedly over two decades ago and I continue to be thrilled and amazed by the practice. Over the past fifteen years the way that I’ve taught has certainly changed, yet the core of my teaching has remained steadfast: I try to combine and impart flexibility, strength and balance into teachings today. My initial trainings were Ashtanga Based and that gave me an appreciation for a more athletic practice which I still enjoy. Once exposed to Yin some eight years ago, I became hooked on the serenity of a mindful practice. I never want to stop learning, loving, sharing and practicing this thing that we call Yoga. I am forever grateful. MBA, E-RYT500, YACEP.

When the Social Media Manager realizes she doesn’t have a reel for Day 4, she makes a reel for Day 4 ~

It occurred to me in Gratitude Practice this morning with Lelia that I had missed last year’s Thanksgiving Day practice because I was just coming back to my mat — and, in truth, I was more or less too scared to take part. Shortly after that, though, I did return to RCY thanks to encouraging teachers and fellow students who reminded me that my time on my mat is *my* time on my mat — words were suggestions, not have-to’s.

As I moved through today’s flow, I realized—maybe for the first time since my injury—that I wasn’t thinking about my leg at all. No bracing, just moving. 🌊

Moving alongside the others, I was reminded how community quietly carries us through, that healing and progress can sneak up on you when you’re present, and that we can all come back to ourselves in our own time.

Thank you RCY 🥹
