'What version of myself is that?!’you may be asking...
Picture you in your favorite element— surrounded by the world’s tallest trees, bathing in a jungle waterfall, surfing the oceans flow, whichever scene suits your vibe.
It is that fulfilling AND overflowing bliss we aim to reach on a daily basis. Those oh-so temporary glimpses--That’s the real you.
One powerful human being in a room can shift the dynamic of 1000 people— have you ever seen the Dalai Lama speak? (if not, take a 5 min break from this and YOUTUBE).
Now, I’m not claiming outright that reUnify yogi community can one-up the Dalai Lama, but if a group of human beings who cherish their bodies and minds gather regularly…. they WILL reflect this out to each other and their surrounding world.
The more people that emanate that day-to-day steady flow of bliss, the more people begin to fathom that possibility. Simple snowball effect :)
Besides the realness of a bunch of humans getting together and working through little kinks and knots in our own physicalities, we’re gathering to help others as well! reUnify aligns with different charities and offers a portion of each class’ donations to those associated charities.
We’re kicking off this year donating to Thabarwa Meditation center in Myanmar and the well-known local Surfrider Foundation.
There are all sorts of different ways to unify on this Earth— it can be within and with others.
reUnify yoga has a bigger agenda than bringing downward dog to the masses.
We act locally, think globally.
When one person can feel secure that they’ve been taught the correct alignment and bring confidence to their mat, then BAM there it is! That expression of authenticity without the clouding of the mind or insecurities of the body. When we are all expressing ourselves authentically, this invites others to do the same. And so the movement strengthens.
In all of this realness, there is a natural drive to help our fellow humans. With this in effect, the movement grows. I am starting small by giving a part of the classes’ proceeds to different charities. In the future, I intend to inspire and organize groups of yogis to volunteer within our communities, or maybe even internationally. There are many ways to have glimpses of realized “oneness” or reunification— from the floaty feel-goods in savasana to volunteering help to someone in need. I just want to encourage people to be their best ‘Self’ because that’s when I’ve been happiest in my life, and I want that same feeling for everyone else
