Another fave!

I have so many favorite things about yoga that I have learned thus far. My most favorite by far would have to be curing my insomnia. Normally, I cannot stay asleep throughout the night and I constantly toss and turn---and let me tell you my mattress is NICE. My pillows and comforter are extravagant but that doesn't always solve sleep problems.

Practicing Ayurveda and doing a 28 day Ayurvedic cleanse has been absolutely therapeutic for me. Your mind affects you in so many ways on a daily basis. Our brains are absorbing all kinds of information throughout the day and it's most of the time negative! By simply changing the way you eat to a healthier diet, it alters the kind of energy you are consuming on a daily basis. For example, if I go eat Chick-fil-a I am 100% going to feel extremely sleepy groggy afterwards. Why? Those chickens that are being factory farmed for fast food are dying and suffering when they are killed for consumption. That negative energy STAYS in the meat and then gets packaged off and sent to places like Chick-fil-a for sale.

If you eat more fruits and vegetables and LESS processed foods, you will feel a world of a difference in energy. My go-to mindset at the grocery store is "no processed foods, no meat, no dairy, avoid buying boxed foods, avoid using a microwave, etc." Being more conscious of what goes into your body not only makes you a better person, but provides you with more energy. I recommend everyone eliminating pork, beef, and chicken from their diets effective immediately. I save more money at the grocery store by filtering out everything bad for me to eat and then in turn I'm not stressing out about buying groceries. So, moral of the story: eat healthier, stress less. Thanks to yoga and ayurveda. :)

One of my favorite things I've recently cherished

       I used to believe if someone did a "pretty" pose and it was super advanced, then I would be fit and healthy. Wrong. Yoga is so much more than just being able to look instagram worthy and attaining a flat stomach.         Yoga is a process of confronting your own limitations being able to challenge and overcome them. I have never had upper body strength, core strength, or even great balance. I practiced and practiced Vrksasana (tree pose) until I got it right. I learned how to allow myself to trust myself. This was HUGE for me. By learning this, I can stand anywhere, away from a wall and balance because I learned to allow. Also, I perfected my ardha chandrasana (half moon) asana on my right side. I am still practicing it on my left side because I'm not as strong on my left. I don't have to use any assistance because I practiced so much. I learned from that asana that certain things take time. Focus in the moment and be present. That...

Yoga Asanas and the Gunas

       The 3 Gunas (Rajas, Sattva, and Tamas) are three ways that Shakti manifests herself into the physical plane. They are the three energies that govern anything happening here in the physical plane. Furthermore, the Gunas are present in the temperament and approach we use in a pose or series of postures. In a flow or vinyasa, the nature of the Gunas is more rajasic because we move forward and backward on our mats. When it flows effortlessly, it becomes a Sattvic meditation. When we are attempting a balancing pose, we are approaching it moving from Tamas to Sattva.        It is important to recognize the gunas themselves will vary in degree depending on movement, type of posture, and the type of breath you bring to it. The Gunas are manifested through Shakti and illuminated by Shiva. Rajas /Rajasic Energy        Rajas currents, movements, or feelings are spirals seen from side to side with a forward/backward, inward...

Beginning a Yoga Practice

       When beginning your own yoga practice, it is important that you have a positive mindset, positive intentions, healthy diet, and allow yourself to grow in all areas of your life. Growing emotionally, spiritually, and physically in a positive direction can be a wonderful experience in this lifetime.         One of the most important things to note is what an asana truly is. Asana is the sanskrit word meaning posture. The actual intention behind the word asana is "a state of being , steady, and joyful". Asana postures are methods of working with one's body in order to prepare it for future spiritual development, mental, and physical stability. Also, they help increase focus and open up the conversation within the energetic structures of the human being. There is more to our lives than the physical plane. Each asana has its own risks, benefits, correct sequencing, lines of energy movement, and alignment to the 3 Gunas : Rajas , Tamas...
