Acceptance is the ๐Ÿ”‘
Proud dad moment as the first of DJโ€™s acceptance letters was opened before bed last night. It seems like just yesterday these pics were taken of him as a boy. Now, he towers over me physically and knows everything and I apparently do not!
Proud of the young man he is turning into and canโ€™t wait to see where this next phase of life takes him. โค๏ธ

11/08/2022

Greetings from Mysuru,
We have just finished our first week of practice here in Southern India. It has felt like a homecoming of sorts to be back at the feet of our teacher again and among so many friends from around the world. Lots of mini reunions are happening daily at the coconut stand, over coffee or chai, and around tables in the local cafes. Being here is always a reminder of how fortunate we are to be among a lineage of practitioners that spans most of the globe. Between the two of us, Erin and I have been here 11 times now and lots of the locals that we see and spend time each year, now feel a lot like family. The pace of life is much slower here and thatโ€™s one of the big highlights for me. Getting caught up on rest, adhering to a sleep schedule I only dream of back home, and having the luxury of relaxing more deeply each day haven been greatly therapeutic and needed. And itโ€™s just the energetic juxtaposition required in light of the intensity of practice that is done at the start of each day before most of the world is stirring. Our practice time begins at 3:45am again this season. Sharath has told me I will be assisting him throughout December from 4-7am and then I will begin my practice afterwards. Erin will probably be assisting him from 7- 9:30am. This month though, weโ€™re getting to settle in to our full length of practices again, which is nice but also comes with a new host of aches and pains as the body and mind gets back to where it once belonged. No matter how deeply and consistent I can practice at times back home, it pales in comparison to what I give on my mat each day here. I want to say itโ€™s mostly due to the fact that Iโ€™m back in the presence of my teacher, as well as my peers, but thatโ€™s only a part of it. Being here inevitably invites me back home again to me. Back to the quest I began years ago to seek out the best version of myself. Doubts I tend to accumulate as to direction and why I continue to practice and teach this path are dispersed here. Itโ€™s a reminder that I seem to need more often than I care to admit. The tarnish of every day life leaves a residue that is most easily dispelled when Iโ€™m hereโ€ฆ (cont in comments)

Movie Night at the Shala โค๏ธ

โ€œIt connected me how I felt like to everything, because if I wasn't there, the sound never would exist. And I felt like everything was in pieces, and then I stood there, and suddenly we were one large instrument.
I like to go there a lot because it reminds me that I'm not just one seperate piece rattling around in this place but that l'm part of the whole. And I truly enjoy the sound of myself connected to everything." - Marcel โค๏ธ

Please join me in welcoming Authorized Level I teacher,

Erin and I first met in Mysore in 2015. Being both from small towns in Texas, we naturally were friendly from the start. It just so happens that I have been in Mysore each time she has and have witnessed her ashtanga journey unfold, as she has mine. She brings a decade of experience as a dedicated ashtanga practitioner, 5 years of experience assisting Authorized Level II teacher Priya Jhawar at , has run her own mysore program along with at and was Authorized herself last December by our teacher
Her presence offers DAYS practitioners the benefit of a new perspective on practice while maintaining cohesion as we have learned from the same source.

She not only brings her years of valuable experience to Dallas but also 2 of the finest animals youโ€™ll ever meet, Mango and Teddy.

The shala was motionless and silent following yesterdayโ€™s Full Vinyasa Led Primary! Thanks to all who came out for practice, brought food/drink for the potluck, and stayed for conversation afterwards. This connection has been sorely missed over the last two years and Iโ€™m grateful weโ€™re now in a place again where itโ€™s starting to feel a bit more normal.
Thanks to everybody who has come to the shala or attended classes online this last year. Each of you have made it possible for the Shala remain open during such a challenging time. Itโ€™s been a sanctuary for us all amid such diversity and I couldnโ€™t be more grateful to hold this space for each of you. ๐Ÿค
Thank you for the kind gift of orchids that now adorn Patanjali. ๐Ÿ™ โค๏ธ

Meet Gaby. Sheโ€™s been practicing yoga for 15 years. Last month something shifted inside of her and she was able to bind on both sides of Marichyasna D by herself. The joy I felt inside witnessing her accomplishment is what fuels me as a teacher. The bind itself means little but the story of what led to it warms my heart. Years of consistent practice, returning over and over again to her mat to cultivate this relationship with herself. I applaud your dedication Gaby. Youโ€™re a true inspiration to me and Iโ€™m grateful you make our Dallas community a better place with your loving presence and easy smile. ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ™

Vande Gurunam Charanavinde

โ€œI bow to lotus feet of the gurus who have come before meโ€ (loosely translated)

15 years ago I serendipitously walked into this manโ€™s photography studio and experienced my first yoga class. I just so happened to also walk into my first 12 step meeting that very same day. I didnโ€™t stay sober then and I didnโ€™t maintain a consistent yoga practice by any means at that time but the seeds of both were sufficiently planted and would take root in the season to come.
I generally never know what role a person, situation or circumstance is playing in my life until I look back. In retrospect, Hal was one of my first teachers or gurus in that he helped usher light into my life dispelling my personal darkness. He opened his studio for yoga, among other things, to be practiced there because he is a helper, a space holder, an encourager, a true cosmic cheerleader for others to begin their process of rising, discovering their latent talents and thriving as awakened versions of themselves. He played this role for me and continues to do so when Iโ€™m need a reminder of who I am, where Iโ€™ve come from and what I have to offer the world.
So, it was a great honor to have him come in the Shala today and experience what has grown from a seed he helped to lovingly plant and nurture all those year ago.
With endless gratitude, I bow to his feet. ๐Ÿ™

Happy Diwali! Feeling grateful for the love and support of the community today. Last night we shared a meal on the patio at temple and I was reminded that thru my own darkness of 20/2021, these kind souls kept candles burning for me. They held space for me even when I wasnโ€™t aware, they lent ears and shoulders when my heart and head were heavy, and most often, they lovingly reminded me to stay steady and just keep breathing. I couldnโ€™t have asked for better group of folks to share the path with. ๐Ÿ™ ๐Ÿช”

Today we celebrate Dai. She bound for the first time in Baddha Padmasana last week and is a joyful, bright light in our community. Great job on staying consistent in your practice, Dai. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™Œ

โ€œMy love of Ashtanga started 15 yrs ago. Being a yoga teacher Iโ€™ve practice many styles of yoga but Ashtanga was my first true love. I started going to the Shala off and on about 3 years ago when we moved to DFW- itโ€™s tough since we live south side. When DAYS started virtual classes is when I became consistent with Ashtanga. My many injuries (knee, shoulders, hand) set me back but I find myself right back on the mat doing what I can. It keeps calling me!โ€

Tori started practicing with us online during the shutdown and over the months became an inspiration for many here. So when she was finally able to come practice in person a week ago, she was received with open arms like family coming home. Feeling very grateful for the warm, loving community we have here in Dallas. ๐Ÿ™

You are not alone! ๐Ÿ˜‰ In this Wellness Wednesday video I describe the many different ways that my practice routine and schedule has changed over the years.

It is a bit idealistic to assume that you will always be able to maintain the same practice routine. Having these unrealistic expectations on yourself can cause a lot of doubt or disappointment when circumstances change in your life.

Let life flow. Be adaptable. Always make a little time for yourself.

Congratulations Dean and Sarah!!! Happy Anniversary DAYS! So grateful to be a part of this community.
Yoga is a discipline that helps us maintain the balance between body and soul. Thus, in situations of stress, we may wonder what are the yoga benefits in crisis time.

The crisis is the breakdown of the order of things, irregular situations where the individual must act to resolve them. Many times we do not know how to respond to crises, because the body is paralyzed and the solution to problems is not seen.
My recent yoga pic of the day, highlights the Ashtangi great, Norman Allen.

Thought I'd reprint it for you here.

In our last Yoga Pic of the Day, we looked at evidence of yoga's 1890s landfall on American shores.

Soon, the practice would be swept up into fitness initiatives of the era, driven by the YMCA, the doctrine of "Muscular Christianity," and the resuscitation of the ancient Greek Olympiad (our modern Olympics) in 1896.

By the 1930s, athletes like heayweight boxer, Lou Nova, were training with yoga.

Yoga is now the โ€œsecret weaponโ€ of many great sports figures.

It's a basic tool for high-performance regimens in every walk of life.

In basketball, three of its greats: Robert Parish, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Michael Jordan were trailblazers in the practice.

Parish and Jabbar are two of the greatest centers in NBA history--and David Robinson is, too. (Born in 1965, he played for the Spurs for 14 years and was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2009.)

Robinson started yoga in Bikram Choudhury's system.

Here, we see him guided in the practice by the Ashtangi, Norman Allen.

Allen (b. 1939) was the first American to study with K. Pattabhi Jois (in โ€˜72) and the first Ashtanga instructor of the Power Yoga maven, Beryl Bender Birch (in 1979).

Like Robinson, Allen's a legend--a story we'll follow up on in a future Yoga Pic of the Day.

Robinson is 7โ€™ 1โ€™ and, as you can see, Allen is a bit shorter.

This comes from a series of 10 famous shots of the tiny Allen muscling the mighty Robinson into position.
