JOY & PURPOSE
The Practice of Daily YogaI write to you again from my home tonight after being inspired during my Yoga Fusion class this evening. As I was teaching, I began to explain why it is vital to practice yoga on an everyday basis. We all know that exercising is good for you and of course we should do it everyday, but with yoga it is a little bit different.
Well, maybe a LOT different.
Yoga is, in and of itself, a complete practice. It really is all you need....that is, when practiced daily, working through postures, learning how to do them correctly and moving yourself to the next level.
But even more, yoga makes your body feel lighter. When you breathe deeply in each pose, more space is created within each muscle, gland, and cell and the vibration of your body is heightened. You feel a buzz, a uplifting sensation, a newfound happiness.
And in times like these, especially of late, with so many fears and anxieties developing around finances, the economy, politics, the environment, it is easy to be affected by low energy, low vibrational thoughts and fears, and negativity.
SO EASY!
You see, there are other ways to numb yourself from these occurrences (and you probably know what those are!), but what yoga does, is KEEP YOUR VIBRATION AT A HIGH LEVEL.
You don't have to live with the pain, stress, and anxiety anymore!
Daily yoga keeps you feeling alive, happy, and energetic.
Many of you are now seeing the benefits of a daily yoga practice and have never looked better. We can see it in you not only physically, but energetically and emotionally. It is beautiful.
What will it take for you to make yoga your lifestyle?
Most of us resist change until we are in too much pain to ingore it any longer. But why wait until then? Haven't you had enough? Prevent pain, prevent anxiety, and prevent stress by practicing now.
Keep your mat out in your room. Just start doing it! Begin again, when you forget. But don't waste a single minute! Live your life at a "10!"
This is living at a higher level, a happier level, where you can access JOY.
It is said that when you have JOY and PURPOSE, you have everything.
It is a choice you must make everyday.
What will you do? How will you choose to live?
With the world events unfolding as they are, I refuse to be affected by the fear and negativity.
Sure, I can begin the fearful dialogue in my head....
"What will happen to my business? Will it be affected by the economy? What if? What if? What if???????"
But that is not my purpose.
My purpose is not to fear change. My purpose to to create and educate. My purpose is to uplift and inspire. To do something to help. To be a light for others. (And when I forget this by the way (and I do sometimes!!!) , I remind myself to get on that mat and practice once again!
I want you to be at ease during these times. I want you to find solace at the studio and be able to practice regardless of what is going on in the world.
I will keep my fees at low rates and not raise them at this time so that you can feel good about keeping your practice going. I will support you in every way I can so that you are attaining all of the benefits that daily yoga gives you. I will give you the best classes and teachers possible. Everyone at Yoga Rocks is committed to this.
And this is my purpose. This is my joy. This is why I do yoga. Yoga has led me to a new way of living, breathing and being.
So....
Do yoga because it's good for you.
Do yoga because it gives you what you cannot get anywhere else, from anything or anyone else. You just can't. There is nothing else like yoga. It is complete.
Do yoga because within its magic, you will learn how to live your life with more joy and more purpose a little bit more every single day for you and for our world.
And then....do something wonderful and let me know what happens for you......I'd love to hear all about it!
