coming to you live from milan! is yoga meditation?

i certainly think it could be.

it could be a practice to allow you to take whatever comes at you in life.

if your yoga is not helping or if you have been in yoga a long time and it doesn't seem to be as powerful as it once was... i propose a different way of thinking about your practice....

this week i'm getting romantic. i don't mean that kind of romantic. i mean the romance of getting out of your head.... the art of getting out of your head is not limited to postural yoga and meditation.

this is a popular (but kinda out of fashion) approach: yoga as poetry. come join me for a meander through some old buddhist monk ramblings; misty mountains, gentle rivers... and tea.

in yoga, meditation, spiritual practice, self-improvement and all these pursuits, we seem fixated on transformation, improvement and refinement. i propose we don't see our yoga this way. it should be a place free from all that pressure.

as i think about the last 30 years of movement and meditation in my life, I reflect on how it has changed... many are afraid of letting go of practices or disciplines that have worked in the past. sometimes, change is inevitable.

i had a great first yoga teacher training. my teacher was guru-like, my classmates were lovely... but very soon after it was clear that some people felt empowered and.... others didn't... that was/still is a shame. the simple reason - a lack of true anatomy knowledge. that we are not all the same. this lack creates haves and have nots. gurus and the rest. the rockstars and the forever students. and... and it is totally avoidable.
