Talking through the endless cycle of artificial deadlines and embracing the journey

We wanted to share our experiences with some relatively safe meditation practices and some guides for expectations for them.

Savasana, Guided Meditation, or Yoga Nidra- getting your feet wet.

What is available through many of the yoga teachers practicing - Savasana, Guided meditation, Yoga Nidra can be very helpful but What is each one?

What are an instructors qualifications for instruction?

Do we have the ability within ourselves to sit in stillness or silence without feeling increased anxiety or retraumatizing ourselves?

Before assuming a path, having a good grip on what our goal is for this part of our journey. We have discussed the sources of suffering and the Kleishas, so using that as a start to discover what it is that we want to accomplish, reach, or clarify- as this is just one part of our journey. So just as I set a goal for why I exercise, I should set one here as well?

What is the definition of suffering ?

What is our current condition ?

What is our current perception ?

Understanding and compassion ?

In today’s episode, we’re going to discuss how we frame our expectations for our practice compared to what we want to get out of it without getting bogged down in comparisons.

The next series that we’d like to share with our fantastic listers we’re calling the ‘Seeking and Creating Peace’ series. This is a topic that we get asked about by our students in a complicated and emotionally charged world. We approach this subject with all seriousness as professionals as we explore the layers of mind and spirit practice.

Props, variations in flexibility, range of motion. How do we think of ourselves and listen to our instructor.
