Equinox Blessings! I feel so grounded in ancient wisdom + nourished by spiritual community after our Fall Equinox Weekend Retreat. Infinite love + gratitude to Serenity Farm NC , Radha Singh, Stacey Kirby , Allison Dennis + Maria Garre for co-creating this epic journey into the heart s p a c e with me and this soulful circle of friends on the path who are traveling together into the great unknown this year. WE HAVE LAUNCHED(!), and are beginning our Journey Around the Sun now, in the fall - the season of completion, to consciously release 2020 with so much grief + gratitude as we create s p a c e for 2021 to naturally + intuitively unfold guided by universal intelligence.

What are you consciously completing and/or releasing this fall as you move towards natural balance, harmony + equanimity within? Half of this journey into the Self and seeking equality on the Equinox is humbly + honestly seeing the imbalances, disharmonies + inequities in ourselves and the world. What limiting and/or oppressive practices, viewpoints + beliefs need to be surrendered to the earth to be composted + neutralized, enriching the soil with wisdom of past experiences? This is the fertile foundation from which our new beginnings will germinate, sprout, grow + thrive in the direction of balance, harmony + equity for all beings and the planet.

May we give and receive strength + nourishment to and from one another in equal exchange. OM PUSNE NAMAHA! 🌞🌚🔥🍁💫

Los 5 sentidos y la Mente.

Alimentarme. Que significa realmente? Los alimentos que como cada día? Si! Pero no solamente.

Me alimento de todo lo que entra a mi cuerpo a través de mis 5 sentidos.

Como mantener La Paz en la Mente y en el Corazón cada día?
Primero, presta atención a tus sentidos.

* Qué vieron tus ojos hoy?
* Qué escucharon tus oídos?
* Qué olores llegaron a tu nariz?
* Qué sabores llenaron tu boca?
* Qué tocaste con tus manos?

Estos 5 sentidos alimentan mi mente. Una sensación se convierte en un pensamiento.

Y tú? Con que alimentas tu Mente?

Gracias Maria Garre
y New Mexico School of Yoga

For all the dog lovers !

Dogs Have Ayurvedic Constitutions Too!
My faithful canine companion Raja (@royal_raja_), the true author of this blog and named by Dr. Vasant Lad, is a wise being that has opened my eyes to the world of canine Ayurveda.
True to his name, which means King, he is regal indeed, “a divine being” as many have called him. And it is through his divine transmission that I have seen Ayurveda come to light and life in a whole new way.

Let’s begin with the doshas: vata, pitta, and kapha. All dogs align with Ayurveda’s prakruti/vikruti paradigm. No doubt about that. It’s more than personality. There are ways to assess overall bone, physique, muscle, stamina, fascial features, and so forth, to derive inherent doshic characteristics and features of your dog. Though I am not a veterinarian and I’ve not created a formal animal dosha test, most of us can easily figure it out through observation (trividhya pariksha).

Yoga Talk Tonight ... India Navratri Ritual Celebration!

“Durga is the strength and protective power in nature, Lakshmi is its beauty. As Kali is the darkness of night and the great dissolve into nirvana, Lakshmi is the brightness of day and the expansiveness of teeming life. She can be found in rich soil and flowing waters, in streams and lakes that teem with fish. She is one of those goddesses whose signature energy is most accessible through the senses. You can detect her in the fragrance of flowers or of healthy soil. You can see her in the leafed-out trees of June and hear her voice in morning birdsong. If Durga is military band music and Kali heavy metal, Lakshmi is Mozart. She’s chocolate mousse, satiny sheets, the soft feeling of water slipping through your fingers. Lakshmi is growth, renewal, sweetness.”
― Sally Kempton, Awakening Shakti: The transformative Power of the Goddesses of Yoga

Do you Ever go to sleep and pray that when you wake the world will be different?
.
Vedic wisdom teaches me that every moment, every breath is a renewal. Truly. I believe this.
Yet, sometimes.....
I doubt in humanity. I can feel hope being sucked out as darkness, confusion, falsehoods, hate and murder seem to lurk at every corner. I can get depressed. Anger stirs and something inside may just explode.
Good to know I am not numb. Good to also recognize it is all temporary.
.
Do not let hope get sucked out completely. Fill yourself back up. See joy and gratitude on the other corner. You know how.
.
Hope prevails so that light, honesty and justice return to humanity.

To stand in the fire requires courage.
To stand in discomfort requires inner strength to transform.
Balancing the fire within requires awareness of what lifts and lights you up but doesn’t burn you out.

Sustain the fire, tend to the fire without fear or anger. Self compassion releases perfection and control. Stay steady on the path and nourish your whole being with a fierce love for evolution. Without measure, just a deep knowing you’ve conquered the demon. Without praise ... for your inner state of brilliance is more than enough.
We all need support and sometimes extra hands, but the fire of change comes from the inside.
Stand tall, but never afraid to fall. For you will always get back up. It’s just that simple.
.
.
Jai Ganesha.

Irritated lately? It happens. It doesn’t define me; however when everything just doesn’t flow and simple tasks seem challenging, I need to cool down from the inside.
.
Pitta is the fire principle in the body that burns and penetrates. Its piercing quality can easily go out of balance when not countered with calming, cool energy.
.
Getting angrier at irritation and frustration isn’t the solution. Ayurveda tells us do the opposite. Find a way to move the energy in a different direction.
.
Laugh. Keep it light and don’t get so serious about all the sh*t that just goes wrong. Put on some fun glasses (@shophottamale ) and pick a bright dress (@desi_swimwear )with cooling colors like blue and white and silver is best, especially big hoops (@nativa_nosara ) to match the new moon.
.
I bring the irritation to my heart, feel all of the discomfort and anger that is there for whatever reason. No judgement. Just let the intensity cook in the heart. Sadhaka Pitta will transform. Some evade, cook it and shift it.
.
Let your adornments and clothing support you. All is what we make of it and how we cook it.

Fire - the element that transformed human life on Earth. Fire brings light in the darkness of the night, hence our entire evening routine was forever changed. Fire brings the power of transformation. For when we cook it forever changes its original form. And thus the power of heat.
.
In Yoga the aspect of Fire goes to the mind, illumination of the mind. How do you cook your thoughts, feelings and impressions? Is the mind illuminated and clear? or stuck in darkness and confusion? The solar plexus is the energetic hub of fire. Related to Manipura Chakra is the bright jewel of center.
.
In Ayurveda, fire, Agni is based in the solar plexus, ruling over the organs of digestion, liver, spleen and blood. Tejas, the superfine aspect of Fire, is the luster and illumination that leads to supreme intelligence for every cell.
.
Both Yoga and Ayurveda offer wisdom and practices to support our relationship to Fire. For balanced fire yields brightness, positivity and amazing health.
.
How you tend to your fire daily?
