Now is the time to let go of secretly saying, one of these days or some day I’ll. Now is the time to create the life you’ve always dreamed of. A Hatha Yoga practice can help us to remember not only a true sense of peace and harmony but also has proven to enhance health; mentally, physically and spiritually.

The teachings of Yoga are based on an intricate and precise understanding of the healthy functioning of the human body and mind. It’s techniques are designed to maximize vitality, increasing the potential for happy and healthy lives, especially important when living a high stressed life-style. In 1968 the World Health Organization defined health as not a mere absence of disease but as a positive state of well being at a physical, mental and social level (in 1976, the word “spirituality” was added!).

Mahatma Gandhi said “Be the change that you want to see.” Our spiritual practice is to embrace all of life just as it is. When we are willing to stop expecting that life should be other than it is and let go of the mental habits that feed our darkness as we experience powerful emotions, challenging circumstances, and the ever-changing nature of our mind, by allowing our self to be openhearted to each experience, we naturally begin to feel more calm and gentle.

When we are in this calm state of mind we are more aligned with the light within us. Attend to the light within you, that is You and make certain that the light of intuitive wisdom shines as brightly as possible whenever you think, speak, act. Be ready and eager to contribute to the Light of the world in every relationship you encounter, within your own mind and with others. In your light, our nation and world will heal and flourish.

Our Yoga and meditation practice provides us with the tools we need to stay connected to our inner light. Some additional practices that help us to stay connected are random acts of kindness and remembering to be grateful for what we already have and to accept each moment as a glorious gift. Live from your heart and you will inspire others to do the same. With deep gratitude and humility for this life we have we can Be that change.

Please check our schedule of classes for changes. We look forward to practicng with you – Vijiaya
