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.

Emotion Code & Reiki Healing

 I have been brought to my knees during my spiritual awakening this year. I went from being super financially stable, to being completely broke with almost nothing left. I left my hometown and moved more than halfway across the country. I had a MAJOR ego death and really re-evaluated my life to what was most important to me. I have lost friends and family members who were nothing but toxic to be around, yet I still send them much unconditional love and light. I felt so lost and didn't know who I was or wanted to be until around mid February.  One night, I was having trouble sleeping. I was tossing and turning all night and ended up sleeping on my back. I never sleep on my back. I always sleep on my side or my stomach. Anyways, at one point in the night, I literally felt my third eye open and it was strange because it felt like how my normal eyes would feel if I haven't slept all night and woke up early. You know when you don't sleep well some nights and your eyes feel like ...

Dancing to Release Old Vibrational Energy & Raising Your Vibration

Today I did a deep energetic cleanse with my aura and practiced connecting with my spirit guides. I am halfway there to becoming capable of verbally communicating with my higher guides on an instantaneous basis in any given situation. Normally, I set the space by cleansing the energies with sage and palo santo. I then rearrange my belongings to keep the energies clear and not stagnant. There are several steps I personally take to get in the sacred space of connecting with my guides.  After meditating and practicing my trance states, I felt very inclined to dance and release old vibrational energies that were no longer serving me. I created a short playlist of songs that I used to love in my childhood. :)  It's so healthy for the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual bodies to release in dance. Dancing instantly raises our vibration, so it's always best to find time to dance for a little bit.  Namaste

Incoming Solar Activity

Today was the peak day in a 10 day portal activation between August 22nd to August 31st. There is an increase in cosmic activity and several spots on the sun are lighting up. It is the beginning of a new solar cycle and this means inner work is coming up.  Whenever I begin to deal with my inner work, I discipline myself into something new. Recently, I have created and stuck with a morning ritual and evening ritual that has been serving me well. Every morning I will meditate, practice yoga, burn an incense, and just breathe. Sometimes, I earth and journal outside and make a goal of getting at least 20 minutes of sunshine daily. When our bodies receive sunlight for at least 20 minutes, it helps strengthen our immunity and helps our bodies fight off the bad viruses, bacteria, and amoeba.  This lunar cycle has been major for me because I felt heart chakra upgrades and the need to raise my vibration higher. I have this innate feeling of wanting to be and feel lighter, so I have com...
