Prayer. We can approach yoga from many different angles. For some, it is a physical workout; for others, a sacred union of body, mind, and soul; and for some, yoga is a living prayer. We begin on the dense physical layer—purifying ourselves from the outside in through the breath, deep focus, and the intentional application … Continue reading Prayer

The Great Self- Robbery
The Great Self-Robbery of the present moment: We are living in an era of self-robbery with the systematic theft of the present moment.

We consume sixty-second videos, eat while running, and move at a pace that renders … Continue reading The Great Self- Robbery
The Spine: Our Cosmic Antenna.
THE SPINE: OUR COSMIC ANTENNA In the world of yoga, the spine is viewed as a cosmic antenna, bridging the gap between Heaven and Earth.

Practice. Focus. Surrender. There is a misconception surrounding yoga: many think you need flexibility, or nowadays you need both strength and flexibility, in order to practise. In truth, this is merely a superficial image of yoga that bears no relation to its depth. It is akin to believing that the glossy pictures on social media … Continue reading Practice. Focus.

More than just asanas
More than just asanas. In Spain, we learn that the locals take their siestas, parties, and holidays very seriously. But for me, yoga is a different kind of ritual—one that doesn't follow a calendar. I practice when I'm happy, when I'm sad, on holidays, before and after parties. Yoga is an invitation to live life … Continue reading More than just asanas
