Yoga in Motion

“An important factor in overcoming karma is meditation. Every time you meditate, your karma decreases, for at that time your energy is focused in the brain and burns up the old brain cells.

“After every deep meditation, you will find yourself becoming freer inside.”

From the book, The Essence of Self-Realization by Paramhansa Yogananda

Sciatica Pain Relief Routine 🧘‍♀️🔥

Struggling with lower back or leg pain? This simple yoga + foam rolling routine targets tight hips, hamstrings, and IT band—key areas linked to sciatic nerve discomfort.

Here’s how each move helps:

• Pigeon Pose (30 sec/side)
Deeply opens the hips and glutes, reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve and improving mobility.

• Hamstrings Rollout (60 sec/side)
Releases tight hamstrings that often pull on the lower back, easing tension and improving flexibility.

• IT Band Rollout (60 sec/side, 2x)
Targets the outer thigh to reduce stiffness and improve leg alignment—great for relieving radiating pain.

• Knee-to-Chest Stretch (30 sec/side)
Gently stretches the lower back and glutes, helping decompress the spine and relax nerve tension.

• Leg Raises (10 reps/side)
Strengthens core and hip flexors, supporting spinal stability and preventing future pain.

✨ Do this daily for best results. Move slow, breathe deep, and avoid pushing into sharp pain.

Morning Yoga Flow

AUM (or OM) is the most sacred and universal spiritual sound in Indian philosophy and spiritual traditions. It is considered the primordial sound of the universe — the vibration from which all creation arises.

AUM is made of three sounds:

A (अ): Represents creation - The waking state (Jagrat) - The physical world - Associated with Brahma (the creator)

U (उ): Represents preservation - The dream state (Swapna) - The mental/subtle world - Associated with Vishnu (the preserver)

M (म): Represents dissolution - The deep sleep state (Sushupti) - The causal/unmanifest state - Associated with Shiva (the dissolver)

The Silence after AUM: Represents Turiya — the fourth state - Pure consciousness - The Absolute / Brahman - Beyond mind, time, and space

AUM represents: The entire universe (past, present, future) - The cycle of creation, existence, and dissolution - The three states of consciousness - The three worlds (physical, subtle, causal) - The Supreme Reality (Brahman)

Chanting AUM calms the nervous system - Aligns body, mind, and breath - Helps in meditation and inner stillness - It is said that AUM is not just a sound, but the vibration of existence itself
