Anusara Yoga, founded by John Friend, is a unique approach to hatha yoga where the spirit of the HEART powerfully blends with the precision of biomechanical ALIGNMENT and balanced energetic ACTION in the performance of asanas (yoga postures). The word "anusara" originates from a line in the Tantric text called the Kularnava Tantra, "shaktipata-anusarena shishyonugraham arhati", which means: by entering the current of Divine Shakti's descent into the heart, the true disciple becomes capable of receiving grace. Anusara literally means to be in the flow. It is the current of the Divine, to flow with Grace. The philosophical basis of Anusara, as elucidated by Dr. Douglas Brooks, is called Rajanaka Yoga. |

breath observation~
in observing how you're breathing, you're making space to witness every nuance silently, reverently, realistically.
as a yogin, you work to cultivate
whenever you observe your breath, see if confidence and love are present.
if confidence and love are not the source of what you're observing, don't waste time analysing why, and don't judge yourself or others for it.
conversation/interaction/person/moment and BREATHE AGAIN.
in this way, so many more moments of your day can be infused with understanding, sweetness, courtesy, quiet.
with great respect and gratitude, elena, lynn and the staff of virayoga |
