It is not just hit all the alignemnts of the poses.
it is the BREATH that can change the life.
Learning how to keep your breath easy no matter what the circumstance, that will change your life.

Nailed it, Tara Stiles! 🙏 It's no secret that International Yoga Day means a lot to us here at mbg HQ -- a relationship with yoga is one of the major common denominators that our team members share. 🤸‍♀️ But we know that yoga transcends the crow poses, the downward dogs, the headstands -- it's about syncing with your breath, being truly present, and learning how to come home to yourself, even in the midst of life's craziness. 🌀 But that's our interpretation! So we want to know -- what does your yoga practice mean to you? ✨

Equinox:
Time to find the balance.
While we are used to these shifts, this one will be more focused on allowing our goals to meet their full potential.

This Equinox will be the turning point of the year and marked when the Sun shifts into Libra. Libra, in case you didn’t know, is a sign that for the most part revolves around finding balance and learning to live in harmony with others.

It is a sign that helps us to look at life from a more compassionate view. To sum it all up, this is a sign that encourages us to be the best versions of ourselves we can be.

As the Sun shifts into Libra on this Equinox, we will be experiencing a lot of new things. During this time there will be a huge shift in energy.

While we are used to these shifts, this one will be more focused on allowing our goals to meet their full potential.

This will be a hard energy shift for Mother Nature as she is still sorting through all the energy she absorbed during the Total Solar Eclipse.

As this Equinox happens we will be invited to balance ourselves out and find the middle ground that we have been needing for quite some time.

We will be forced to take the good things with the bad and while some of this will be hard to accept we do not have any other choice. The Universe will not push something on you that you cannot handle and you need to remember that above all else.

Of course, we will all be slowing down during this energy shift and while balance will be found, we will also be given the time we need to breathe and Mother Nature (or Mother Earth) will be able to recover even if just for a moment.

As we are moving closer to the final months of 2017 we will be dealing with everything that we have been putting off and our new truth will become our reality.

This Equinox will soften even the most masculine being.Trust your inner voice and embrace all that is to come.

This will feel a bit draining and odd, to begin with, but once you get where you need to be, things will settle down. While we cannot change the past, we can savor the future and the future will be wonderful.

Creativity will be high and if you take this time now before the Equinox hits to reflect on how you want this chapter of your year to end you will be all the more prepared.

The energy to come will be calming and should ease any harsh feelings you have been having.

Let things simmer down and allow yourself to flow right into where you need to be. Make every moment count and enjoy the energy to come.~

The power and beauty of our body!
Our oldest son practices gymnastics, our middle son practices ballet, our youngest son(2 yrs old) practices "life" and we(mom&dad) practice yoga.
There is something so beautiful and magical about using your body as a tool to create movements.

Great question about what is your favorite yoga pose?

I have learned that my least favorite poses are the ones that teach me the most. Becuase they challenge me to move my body in the dimensions that I am not used to.
I do like arm balances or handstands because they help me develop FOCUS.

What’s your favorite yoga pose? This is like asking a mechanic, what’s their favorite size wrench or an artist what’s their favorite brush. The mechanic uses the wrench that is needed for the task and the artist picks the brush based on their needs.
As yogi’s our tools are our poses. We pick the one that serves our intentions or needs in that moment. If I need to challenge the mind and soften the body, maybe I meditate in sukhasana, if I want to be focused, I work one arm handstands, if I need to feel free, I have a self practice, disciplined I do ashtanga. I choose pose or practice that I need in that moment. I know for every intention there is a pose for it and my favorite pose becomes that pose that is needed.

It is nice to have science backing up how important exercise/movements are to keep our joints healthy longer.
The article mentions that our body is not like auto parts that deteriorate as we use them. Our body parts get more nutrients as we use them.

Even after a Harvard team took into account differences in age and weight among ancient specimens and knees today, they found that modern humans tend to have more osteoarthritis.

Depression is not in our heads. It is in our bodies. When we fix the body, we fix the brain.

As a functional medicine doctor, I take a different approach to depression.

I like everyone's faces after three glasses of wine than none....
What do you think?

I think it would be fun to try this experiement tonight.
I will take the pictures too!

There's a saying about wine, that the first glass of wine is all about the food, the second glass is about love, and the third glass is about mayhem, says Brazilian photographer Marcos Alberti. According to him, the 3 Glasses after [project] started as a joke like a game after hours, during which he…
