February 2021 Newsletter - We can link asanas to particular states of being/feelings. These are known as bhavana, which translates as “development,” “residence” or “cultivating,” and is one of the four terms used to refer to imagination and encompassing yogic vision which is used to set the tone for your practice. Bhavana is also used by yoga teachers to set a specific feeling or mood at the beginning of a practice.

Karma Yoga - one of the four paths of yoga describ

Karma Yoga - one of the four paths of yoga described in the Hindu spiritual text, The Bhagavad Gita. The book is a manual for how to live life, practise yoga, conquer thoughts and be patient. It teaches that whatever path we are on, and wherever we are on that path, it’s ok.

Karma yoga is described as trying one’s best without being attached to the outcome; considering all options and then doing the right option. It is the path of unselfish action which in turn is thought to purify the mind.

“No effort ever goes wasted, there is no failure”

In the West Karma is thought of as, “What goes around comes around”. This is very different from the Eastern view that one’s actions ought not to be based on personal desires/rewards. Our ordinary actions are performed to nourish the universe that has nourished us.

I find this theme particularly helpful as the Christmas season approaches and we can become caught up gifting presents and being disappointed when we don’t always receive what we might want.

It is also useful the remember and practise “Metta Mediation” – loving kindness. I will be reminding you of this practice throughout December.

The crown chakra sits at the very top of the head

The crown chakra sits at the very top of the head and is known as Sahasrara in Sanskrit, meaning thousand petalled lotus.

The lotus flower is sacred in Indian tradition; it has roots in mud, symbolizing the weight of the material realm, then its stem travels up toward the light, symbolizing the realm of emotion. At the water’s surface the leaves spread in the realm of air, and finally the flower forms, opening a perfect array of petals, releasing an exquisite fragrance into the subtle etheric realms.

The lotus echoes the map of the chakras in each of us. Its colour is violet or white.

The crown chakra is your connection to whatever you believe to be spirit, source, the divine spark of creation. You can find spirit in many places – from the most glorious of cathedrals to a raindrop gleaming on a blade of grass in the morning sun. It is whatever speaks to you of connection and love beyond everyday existence.
In new born babies the skull bones are unfused and the ancient traditions of India believe that this is to maintain the connection to the Divine Source. This link to the source of creation is maintained throughout life via the crown chakra.

Crown chakra energy is the highest frequency in the body.

I would like to continue to share practices and wisdom with you during this continued challenging period. Please see the online class schedule page of my website for further details of my timetable. #crownchakra

I was talking about this in class yesterday. .....

I was talking about this in class yesterday. .........

Repost from @britishwheelofyogalondon using @RepostRegramApp - Today is the first day of the nine day festival Sharad Navratri.

It celebrates the Hindu Goddess Durga in all her manifestation. She is the mother of the universe and believed to be the power behind the work of creation, preservation, and destruction of the world.

Day 1 is called Prathama and represents the first form of Durga, Maa Shailputri Puja.

She is depicted riding a bull, her right hand holding a trident and her left hand the lotus flower. Worshipping her is believed to eliminate any bad effects or omens.

Shailputri means ‘daughter of the mountains’. Mountain pose, Tadasana/Samasthiti (equal standing) is one of the first poses we learn in our yoga practice. A pose that seems a simple one - standing - but one we take for granted.

In Tadasana we focus on grounding through all four corners of the feet, we engage our leg muscles, stand tall by lengthening our spine, we engage our core, lift our ribs, open our chest and we lift our crown and find our focus. And we breathe.

It is the basis of all standing postures and a regular return to it during our practice allows us to absorb and feel the benefits of our flow and find a moment of space to reground whilst feeling the energy we have created.

When we close our eyes during Tadasana and we start to engage our feet and legs as we begging to wobble off balance, we realise it is not such a simple pose!

,”Once we can master ‘tadasana’ then all the other poses come.” BKS Iyengar.

ॐ देवी शैलपुत्र्यै नमः॥
Om Devi Shailaputryai Namah॥

Ajna Chakra - This chakra or wheel of energy is lo

Ajna Chakra - This chakra or wheel of energy is located at the third eye: the space at the eyebrow centre. It is the home of intelligence: physical, emotional, mental or spiritual. It isn’t about being clever; it’s about our ability to connect to our bodies and feelings.

All the elements combine at the third eye to complete the perception of ourselves and the world around us. This creates the conditions for intuition and the creative leap into the unknown.

“Ajna” means to perceive; it is connected to our sixth sense, instinctively knowing what seems mysterious but is somehow right.

The colour associated with this chakra is indigo, the deep purple of the night sky.

Chanting the sacred sound of “OM” helps to open the third eye, stimulating creativity and awareness. This sound connects all things, bringing the light of the cosmos into the body.

We are moving beyond the physical body to the realm of light, the subtle element associated with this chakra.

We need to have a well-balanced foundation and a solid and stable framework for spiritual expansion. We do this by clearing any blockages in the lower chakras. Patience is required when working with the chakras and our intuition will tell us when it is the right time to progress onto the higher frequencies and subtle energies. It is best not to rush or force the progress as it may be a lifetime of work. The flower does not force its journey to the sun; it grows and unfolds in its own time.
