Founded by John Friend in 1997, Anusara Yoga presents a unique approach to hatha yoga in which the spirit of your heart powerfully blends with your precise alignment and balanced action through asana and meditation. The initial philosophical basis of the practice, continually elucidated by Dr. Douglas Brooks, is called Rajanaka Yoga. The word "Anusara" originates from a line in the Kularnava Tantra, "shaktipata-anusarena shishyonugraham arhati." Anusara offers a vision that is inclusive of all religious affiliations and requires only a willing heart.. |

VIRAYOGINS a summary, and an amendment to our most recent messages: three routes toward more ease in your life. separate your attention [simultaneously take inner "snapshots" of your inner state + your outer experience; you're manifesting the pause between any experience and your internal reaction(s)]. practice precision in your yoga to reveal expansion in every experience [get clear on the Anusara Principles of Alignment; as a result of your alignment externally you're ensuring that you are spacious and nourishing yourself on a cellular level internally ]. sit and breathe [take five minutes every morning to sit still and simply notice the litany of tiny internal reactions. once you've noticed one or many, breathe patiently, internally; that patience will infuse every interaction externally]. with great gratitude, elena |
