Mind and Body

June 2nd, 2009

saba-island-flower

Yoga, Rope Yoga (Russayog), Bikram, Hatha: paths that reveal that your mind is a tool and just that.

To know that you are NOT your thoughts.

To know that yesterday has already happened and tomorrow has not arrived yet.

That what we have is now, today, this moment, this breath.

Anand (Bliss),

Carrie

View From The Studio

          I Photo-shopped this image I took at my studio.

The image conveys the beauty my clients feel when they are stretching and building strength (mindful and physical). The studio is a special place I like to share with special people; people who believe in themselves or are willing to believe in themselves. Everyday, we are called upon to do this and everyday invites news experiences, new challenges. Manifesting self-awareness is a great gift we can give ourselves if we choose to. Everyday.

In Sundar (Beauty),

How Yoga does Your Mind Good!

Researchers at the University of Boston School of Medicine and McLean Hospital found that Yoga elevates levels of the stress regulator in the brain: gamma aminobutyric acid.

An hour of Yoga boosts GABA levels by 27%!

A study by the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind-Body Medicine found that Yoga and Meditation (whether done by a seasoned yogi, or a first-time yogini) change the patterns of gene activity in ways that improve how the body responds to stress.

It may turn off hormonal imbalances.

Yoga also lowers adrenaline levels: Excess adrenaline has been linked to depression and over-eating.

Slow Down

May 21st, 2009

tranquil

In our hyped-up and caffeinated culture, who doesn’t want to do more faster? But you may also crave a break from your over stimulated mind and aspire to a calmer, more intuitive, and present state. It’s easy to lose sight of your main purpose amid the distractions of a frenzied mind.  Slowing down brings you back to the here and now.

Many meditation techniques use one point as an object of concentration. Whether it’s the breath, a mantra, sensations, the thought of love, or awareness itself, the object of concentration can be a doorway to the moment. But sometimes this single focus is too subtle for the mind to track easily. If that’s been your experience, you may find that slow-motion movement, which begins with attention to strong sensations in the body, to be a more tangible and satisfying focal point.

This process of  gradually shifting your attention from the large movement of the asanas to the small movements of the breath is the essence of raja (or classical) yoga. As you attend to the postures, you encounter and release deep-seated tensions. You also refine your awareness by concentrating on the subtlety of your breath and turning inward. YJ 2009
