#mysoreyoga

Focus the mind, free the spirit. Calm the breath, heal the body. Relax the heart, love the whole world. This is yoga. Impressive handstands are good for at least one thing—they inspire people to want to practice yoga. But don’t think yoga can be measured by postural achievement. Someone can do a perfect handstand and not be a yogi. Someone can do not one asana that looks like a yoga magazine and be a super yogi. So, how to tell? Well, you have to spend time with someone to know them beyond the asana and feel how the yoga works inside them and through them. Yoga is life. Keep practicing 🙏 Practice with me online @omstarsofficial New challenge starts January 1st. One week of Mysore starts in January @miamilifecenter and next workshops are in California.

Your knowledge shouldn’t become a burden. The ability to laugh, appreciate simple things in life make your spiritual sadhana easier. Live life simpler. Love unconditionally. Learn “you first” the entire world is a family and you’re part of this gigantic family 🙏 ——-🧘‍♂️🌺——- #samyak #samyakyoga #yogainindia #yogamysore #samyakyogamysore #mysore #india #light #indiayoga #inspiration #mysoreyogis #yogainspiration #yogini #yoga #yogi #mysoreyoga #yogaallianceprofessionals #yogaeverydamnday #yogateacher #yogapractice #namaste #yogacommunity #yogateachertraining #yogaalliance #YTTC #mysoreyogi #asanas https://www.instagram.com/p/BnbTthelCGd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mvhrz0f8g5vv

Be kinder to yourself so that you can be kinder towards others. Be gentle with yourself so that you can be more gentle with others. Make friends with yourself so that you can be a good friend to someone else. Forgive yourself so that you can one day forgive the whole world. Every day, every breath here in India is so precious. Only two weeks left and I am going practice with all my heart and soul. Keep practicing 🙏 Practice with me online @omstarsofficial Photo @ifilmyoga #yoga #yogi #mysoreyoga #yogamysore #indiayoga #yogaindia #kinoyoga #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #ashtangi #ekapadasirsasana #legbehindthehead #omstars 💕 (at Mysore, Karnataka) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmT1Crrv-wR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

There are places within each of us that remain eternally private. It’s almost like a blanket of quietude that can never be pierced. Entering that inner sanctuary, where really truly only you as your true self can be, is the work of yoga. That is why, no matter how public things may seem, no matter how much time we spend in class, yoga remains always and essentially a personal practice. The devotional seeds that we each sow on the mat, in between breath, body and mind are our own. Once they take root and the fruits start to show in our lives, we can share the benefits of the practice with all. But turning outward too soon destroys the harvest. So take time to dive deeply down into the layers of yourself that only you can penetrate. Keep practicing 🙏 Practice with me online @omstarsofficial New challenge starts January 1st.

I am not naturally strong. It took me years to be able to lift up. I am still not the strongest person in class. Every lift up is a methodical negotiation with my body that sometimes ends in a lift up and other times ends in failure. This is the practice. I love to teach strength because working on strength was such a big part of my journey. I know that no matter where you start from you can build more strength than you think. It takes courage, dedication and practice. Now, not everyone will be able to do all the lift ups. There are still many I cannot do! But that’s not the point. The whole purpose of the strength work is about building a strong mind and a resilient spirit. If you want to be stronger, check out all my courses on strength like Yoga Drills on @omstarsofficial Photo @ifilmyoga #yoga #yogi #lsit #bestrong #bestronger #ashtanga #kinoyoga #yogapractice #mysore #mysoreyoga #yogaindia #indiayoga #omstars #omstarsyoga 💕 (at Mysore, Karnataka) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClySyfiP4AW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Not every limit needs to be surpassed. Learning to respect our own boundaries helps us learn to respect other people’s boundaries. While in some way we are limitless, that very truth can be confusing when we are faced with a bunch of obstacles. It doesn’t feel like we are limitless beings of light when our leg won’t go where we want it to, or when we can’t lift up how we would like to, or when we don’t have the resources we need to do what we want. In those moments we feel all too limited and something inside of us wants to push through and break out to a new level of reality. But, sometimes it’s ok not to try to achieve. Sometimes it’s ok to accept what is as it is. Sometimes it’s ok to just let the foot go wherever it wants and not worry about how high your lift up is. We can all be so hard ourselves, pushing to do more, be more, achieve more. But when is enough really good enough? When is more not necessarily better? Maybe we can let ourselves off the hook for a little bit. And maybe we can use that extra space to breathe. Who knows? Maybe once we let go of the need to do more and be more we will find out that we are happy as we are. I’m relishing my time in India as a student. It’s been too long since I’ve been here and I’m about half way through my trip. It feels too short, but I don’t want to be greedy. I just want to appreciate every moment I have here and soak it all in.
