Kundalini sisterhood

Kundalini yoga. Heard of it and wondered  what it was. My curiosity was satisfied when it was made a module for my 500 hr advance teacher training. Kundalini yoga opens up our chakras from mulandara which is near the genitalia area to our crown.

Each chakra had its own yoga sequence.

I sweat as much for swadisthana as I did for astanga.

I witness kundalini rising for some in my practice. 

After a week of practicing kundalini, I am not sure if it is for me but it was an interesting journey

Fifth yoga lesson

This evening was the 5th yoga lesson that I conducted.

Today, I felt more centred and excited to do the class. I was exhausted after the kundalini ajna sequence this morning.

But I felt accomplished as I could do poses that I have never done before. 

Today after the class, I overhead one student saying that she had back pain. But after the yoga session, the pain disappeared.

Another said she enjoyed today's class as she felt challenged and sweat.

I am very pleased :-)

Sunset Yoga

H

It was a cool evening. The birds were chirping and  the cool breeze carressed our skin as we do downward dog and other poses. 

By the time it was savasana, the sun was setting. 

What a wonderful was to practice yoga amidst nature.

I even heard somebody saying,"i needed this."

Yoga anywhere, everywhere.

This is why I love Yoga.

You just need your breath, a pair of hands and focus.

There is no need for equipments. 

Your body is the weights.

Your breath is your energy

Your focus is ypur commitment.

All my gratitude

I went back to the island that I have visited countless times in the past 27 years. When I first found this island, Rawa, we stayed in A huts with kerosene lamps. It was rustic, simple and cheap. How modernity has crept in. Its now a full fledged resort. Its popularity means the price of accommodation has skyrocketed  too. But I am thankful that I have been blessed all these years. Just like the resort, my life has taken its own route, to flourish and prosper. I have only gratitude and love in my heart. I am blessed and I cannot ask for a better life.

Glorious day at Rawa to pose with asanas and meditate.

One year after 46

Yesterday was my birthday. I am 47 but in my heart I always feel like I am 28. 

Anyway within one year, my life has changed so much due mainly to one gift- my Birthday present last year.

Last year I had asked hubby for my Yoga teacher training course as a Birthday present. 

It has taken me on a magnificent journey from learning new things, making new friends, teach and most of all learn new things about myself.

I love learning and I don't think I will ever stop.

So here's to getting more flexible, more knowledgeable, more loving and health alwAys.
