Mind and Body

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

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.

“In Buddhist philosophy, mudita is the third of the four brahmaviharas, the inner “divine abodes” of loving, compassion, joy, and equanimity that are every human being’s true nature. The term mudita is often narrowly translated as “sympathetic” or “altruistic” joy, the pleasure that comes when we delight in other people’s well-being rather than begrudge it. But since in practice it’s all but impossible to experience happiness for others unless we first develop the capacity to taste it in our own lives, many Buddhist teachers interpret mudita more broadly as referring to the inner fountain of infinite joy that is available to each of us at all times, regardless of our circumstances. The more deeply we drink from this fountain, the more secure we become in our own abundant happiness and the easier it then becomes for us to relish the joy of other people as well.
We’ve probably all had moments that have shown us that happiness has virtually nothing to do with the external circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the state of our minds and hearts. We can be drinking margaritas on a Caribbean beach, totally miserable; we can be late for work and stuck in freezing sleet in a traffic jam on the George Washington Bridge, overflowing with bliss.” YJ 2009
Happily Live Your Life!
Monday, May 4th, 2009
It takes courage, faith and a tenderness toward yourself to live the kind of life you desire.
Sometimes, people will come your way, in pain, and say you can’t do this or that.
Strive ahead, keep reaching for what YOU want, what makes YOUR life valuable to YOU.
Don’t base your worth on another person’s expectations or definition of who they think you are.
Only YOU know.
Only you can create the kind of life you want to LIVE.
