✨Buddhist Prayer

Let us live joyfully.
Let us form a community of love, in a world full of hatred.
Let us live without any kind of hatred.
Let us live joyfully.
Let us form a community of spiritual health, in a world full of illness.
Let us live without any kind of spiritual disease.
Let us live joyfully.
Let us form a community of peace, in a world full of rivalry.
Let us live without any kind of rivalry.
Let us live joyfully.
Let us form a community which possesses nothing.
Let us radiate spiritual light.

Welcoming The Winds of Change ✨🕉

“Aversion is a form of bo***ge. We are tied to what we hate or fear. That is why, in our lives, the same problem, the same danger or difficulty, will present itself over and over again in various prospects, as long as we continue to resist or run away from it instead of examining it and solving it...

"Meditation shows you very quickly, 'What's my relationship to my life, to my experience? Am I constantly pushing against it? Am I trying to change it and control it? And how is it working out for me?'" ~ Adyashanthi

There's no denying that we live in critical times and, now more than ever, we need to be cognisant of our capacity to affect the lives of others in our thoughts, actions and deeds. As we celebrate ourselves as individuals, so we should celebrate all humanity as equal and individual.

Take time to celebrate and reflect this Human Rights Day SA!!✨

ISHTA will be CLOSED tomorrow but OPEN for classes as usual this weekend.

By increasing activity in the parasympathetic nervous system through breathing, meditation, relaxation and asana, yoga helps you to literally UNDO and UNLEARN conditioned stress responses.

Stress hormones like cortisol and adrenalin increase cellular ageing and inflammation in the body.

Reducing intrusive memories and emotional hyper arousal caused by PTSD and other mental health conditions like depression and anxiety, yoga alleviates the chronic stress responses in the body that are repeated over periods of time.

Regulating our bodies toward homeostasis, which is ideally a state of balance in the nervous body - when we are both calm and alert - is just one of many benefits of a consistent yoga practice 🧘

It's super easy to join one of our daily classes - visit www.ishtayoga.co.za/bookings and come join us on the mat 🌗
