Joy is a habit

You have to make Joy a habit - like brushing your teeth. It has to be something you practice every day. You have to find it, sometimes you have to dig so deep you may hit an internal organ while you're diggin! - But it's there. The other option? Sink in your dark hole and grimace.

Joy can only be found within.

It may expand from external sources - but it happens inside of you -not outside of you.

So- you have the power to EXPAND your joy whenever you want!

Like right now!

Make space inside for the GOOD stuff to enter!

You know those times when you're thinking so much your brain hurts? Or those times when you have inner TURMOIL, stress, and dark energy storming through your body? Well, you are building walls and barriers inside, and you're too CROWDED in there! There's no place for the good stuff to rush in.

You have to make space inside, so you can fill yourself up with positive, light energy and thoughts.

The only one who can do that is YOU.

Yoga helps. When you come to yoga and you move your body with breath - you create SPACE inside, and get rid of the physical blocks and walls and knots.

Jump in - the waters fine

After coming back from Hawaii, I couldn't imagine myself jumping into our cold dark ocean water. I mean come on, they have turquoise warm bath water for an ocean. BUT - when the heat rises, and you need some relief - there's a huge swimming pool from nature...you just have to have COURAGE!

So, yesterday I baked in the sun for a while, and watched all the brave people wander into the frigid, causing shrinkage ocean water of White Rock.

I thought to myself - "No. Not gonna happen!"

Summer's here

We've been waiting with baited breath. Here it comes. The...sun?? The...heat? The...tan lines?? Yes. Don't abandon your hot yoga sweat fest just yet...summer shape up begins! Tighter and shorter clothes, bathing suits - ready to show off your hot yoga bod.

Keep coming to yoga - it tones your body -

AND it tones you mind and spirit. You will find peace here. You will need to come in and find peace form the kids out of school, from all the family bbqs and all the drinks with friends.

Come in and unwind your mind! Soothe your soul and sweat out those suntan lotion toxins!

Importance of Savasana

Once I asked a fellow yogi, why do we do Savasana? I see my students, even myself leaving right after the teacher leaves the room...It becomes a game to see how many people are left in the room after a tough practice.... Some people take it to balance the body with heart rate and breath before you step out of the hot room or just as simple as meditation. Which ever way you take it,there is a big importance to Savasana than the physical part or just the meditation part.
This is from a blog on a hot yoga website.

Why do this yoga thing??

There are so many reasons to do yoga. A cuter butt. O.k. - I have better ones for you. Do you want to look younger? - Do yoga.

Researchers have just found that people who do just three 60-minute sessions of semi-vigorous yoga per week, were 9 years younger on average than non-exercisers.

Do you need to DETOX? Get rid of those toxins trapped in your body and skin!

In the yoga room...

In the yoga room...someone is struggling. Someone is tired. Someone had an argument today and is thinking about it. Someone is wishing they didn't eat so close to class, and they are trying really hard not to pass gas.

Someone has an old injury.

Someone is not paying attention to their body, and is just going through the motions because they can't stop daydreaming.

Someone is bored.

Someone is wondering when the class will be over.

Someone is not comfortable in their own skin.

Someone is judging themselves.

Someone is planning their evening.
