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, and Sattva. 
       Asanas are not static like you think they would be. They are living, breathing temperaments in physical consciousness. Before one practices asanas, they must warm up the body first. This does not necessarily mean simply raising the body's temperature. It is important to warm the muscle tissues of the body through movement. Once this has been mastered, through the use of Bandha and prana the breath can be used to create an intrinsic and inspiring yoga practice that can work as a catalyst for the mind, body, and spirit transformation. 
       When asana is practiced at this level, the mind and spirit begin to evolve and the symbolism of practicing "awareness and bliss" simultaneously begin to manifest into other areas of the yogi's life.

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...

Transitioning from 3D to 5D consciousness

  TODAY I have decided to raise my vibration to be 3D -> 5D. What does that mean? 1. Being in the 3rd dimension is what we observe on the physical plane. Being GROUNDED protects us from psychic and energetic attacks. This happens when you are open in the 4th dimension (4D) and you do not have the highest intention for yourself, for those involved, or for anything else. To be grounded and protected in 3D, I like to play my C-12 root crystal sound bowl, practice Bodhi Yoga™, stretch, meditate, use essential oils, and practice cupping on my muscles to release. 2. You want to AVOID being in the 4th dimension because you are opening up yourself to ALL entities without the highest intention. If you have the highest intentions, then you can ascend to 5D (5th dimension). Recently, I had my own personal experience of a psychic attack and did not know what to do when I was in that situation. I observed being in my house like normal except there were things that were different. I could lit...

Sattvic Energy

Sattva /Side to Side Movement        Sattvic movement is light, delicate, clear, and graceful. It is stillness and balanced. In yoga, these postures would be balancing postures or the Sattva of Namaste. It is the centering point of your practice, the point just prior to conversation. Sattva is Divine or Godly nature. It is the pure mind with no judgment nor self-awareness. When you are free of negative thoughts and emotions, Sattva produces enlightenment and self realization. The Sattvic approach views yoga practice as a journey with each yoga postures as a potential for both steady joy as well as challenge.  www.gobodhiyoga.com Gracen Kahn Pernia  © 2020 All Rights Reserved.
