CleanPodcast #61 - Exploring the Sun and Moon Level 1/2 Class 40 Min | Mentioned in this free Anusara Yoga Online Yoga Podcast: Yoga Month HUB * Humanity Unites Brilliance *FOR MORE INFO EMAIL ME ( my page ) * MUDRA MOMENTS RETREAT* WITH ELSIE, ME AND DR DOUGLAS BROOKS!!!!!!!! Join my community networks: ADD your FACE to my facebook group Hillary's Yoga Practice Podcast This is what Vishnu Mudra looks like (this is not my hand) - Nadhi Sodhona - Alternate Breathing Close the right nostril with your right thumb and inhale through the left nostril. Do this to the count of four seconds. Immediately close the left nostril with your right ring finger and little finger, and at the same time remove your thumb from the right nostril, and exhale through this nostril. Do this to the count of eight seconds. This completes a half round. Inhale through the right nostril to the count of four seconds. Close the right nostril with your right thumb and exhale through the left nostril to the count of eight seconds. This completes one full round. Start by doing three rounds, adding one per week until you are doing seven rounds. Alternate nostril breathing should not be practiced if you have a cold or if your nasal passages are blocked in any way. Forced breathing through the nose may lead to complications. In pranayama it is important to follow this rule: under no circumstances should anything be forced. If you use the nostrils for breath control they must be unobstructed. If they are not, you must practice throat breathing.

CleanPodcast #43 - Pour Meaning into Your Breath, Life and Heart - Level 2/3 Yoga Class | This yoga class podcast is dedicated to the memory of Gusta, my Husband's grandmother who passed away August 13th in her sleep peacefully at the age of 96. She passed just from old age with a life filled with love and beauty. Last year before we were married I met her in Israel. She was pure love. Her life was one that was filled with amazing experiences. I am grateful to have been able to spend time with her and will miss her. We are going to Israel this September for our 1 year anniversary and Gusta was stretching every breath to see me and to have someone actually put you as the meaning behind their breath is an honor.

CleanPodcast #36 - Yoga is About Self-Empowerment Lvl 2/3 Class | Every time I prepare to teach a workshop I ask myself why I teach yoga, why I do yoga and how does it make a difference in my life. What comes up again and again is how I find my self-empowerment through my choices to align with my heart. The Gita states that we are better to fail at who we are then become someone else which to me means to be who we are and through this we can find our power knowing that we are being true to ourselves and make better choices from this place. Even when I cannot find the access point of a pose I know with my breath and intention there is a shift which shows me it's possible even if not on this day. Force does not lead us to a place where we are able to connect deeply to ourselves where power is what we hold deep within ourself which can influence and inspire others. When we soften, align and take action to do the best we can there comes a feeling of accomplishment even if we don't get the textbook pose. See how you can empower yourself by taking care of yourself and make choices that support what you believe in on and off your mat Habitat For Humanity Yogathon at City Yoga - CALL TO DONATE BY SEPT 15th 323-654-2125 Inversions For Beginners at City Yoga Sequence : Level 2/3 All 4's Hands and Knees Down Dog Uttanasana Urdvah Hastasana Samastithi then Interlace Hands Strech Palms Up Shoulder Stretch Interlace Hands Behind Back Uttanasana Lunge with Knee on Floor Uttanasana Plank Pose to Cobra to Down Dog Down Dog Split Vira I - Warrior One Vinyasa Vira II - Warrior Two to Parsvakonasana - Extended Side Angle to Trikonasana - Triangle Down Dog to Vashistasana - Side Plank to Wild Thing Pose Vinyasa Balasana - Child's Pose to Down Dog Lunge with Shoulder/Head Behind Knee Eka Pada Koundinyasana Ardha Chandrasana - Half Moon to Parvritta Ardha Chandrasana - Revolved Moon Down Dog Hasta Padagustasana Malasana - Garland Pose to Bakasana - Crane Pose Child's Pose Anjaneasana with Thigh Stretch Seated Hip Opener Agnistambasana Prep - Firelog Prep Setubhanda - Bridge to Urdvah Danurasana Windshield Wiper Pose Baddha Konasana - Bound Angle Janu Sirsasana - Head to Knee Pose Upward Facing Child's Pose - Sit with Knees Bent Wrap Arms Around and Lower Head to Knees Ujjayi Breath Meditation Savasana - Corpse Pose Namaste! | 2/7/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

To signify my 35th birthday we begin with three om's and end with five. Many days of contemplation on what I was going to share and the usual 35 sun salutations came to mind but then after connecting to my commitment to a three week breakthrough meditation practice (this is in the back of Sally's Book) it made sense to share this with you. If you are new to meditation take a whirl and know there is no right or wrong enjoy your experience even if you just sit there and nothing seems to happen, be patient it will offer amazing fruits without your even being aware of them at first. There are many ways to meditate and I first began using the style of the Self Realization Fellowship but then met my current teacher, Sally Kempton while in teacher training in 2002. At first when I met her I was practicing SRF technique thinking this was the only way and did not even listen to her. At the time I was not open to something new and in some way was rigid but after some time I sat with her again and totally let go and went with her guidance and am happy I did. Today I follow her technique which are beautifully explained in her book The Heart of Meditation . This episode is dedicated to Sally as she opened me to the possibility of play within my practice of meditation. Shakti: 1) the divine Mother, the dynamic aspect of the absolute Reality, and the creative force of the universe. 2)All-pervasive, divine spiritual energy Acroyoga and the amazing Huck Hirsch - he is a gifted teacher who travels around the world teaching and sharing this wonderful practice. Huck Hirsch Residence: Los Angeles Birthplace: Brooklyn, NY 323.939.2393 huck@acroyoga.org After years of enjoying yoga on my own mat, I was so delighted by the AcroYoga vision of yoga practiced in 2s and 3s and 4s...exploring connection and trust and beauty in community makes this playful practice fun and vast and important.God created others for many reasons. AcroYoga invites us to find all of them. Born in Brooklyn. High School of Performing Arts. Amherst College. Many years working in musical theater. Performer. Director. Choreographer. Then I made a film and moved to LA, where I currently teach AcroYoga and Anusara Yoga. And I continue to write about the crazy wonderful journey of living.

CleanPodcast #33 - You Make A Difference In The World Level 1 | For the past week I have been paying attention to see where I can make a difference in the world I live in by paying attention to where I can be of service. Even with teaching as a service for me I seek other ways to uplift others especially when I am in public places. The other day I saw a woman in Kinko's began a conversation that led to yoga and that night she came to class - very cool as shared that she had a loss in her family. This reminded me that we can make a big difference for others without really knowing the imprint we leave. My teachers all have reminded me of this and today I offer this to you - each day we can see how we are part of the tapestry of life. Your feedback, YOU and your practice make a difference in this world.... I am grateful for this wonderful opportunity to make a difference in your life.

CleanPodcast #32 - Yoga is Growing Yourself - Strong Levl 2/3 Class | Now coming up on my 11th year of practicing yoga I see that am deeply into my commitment on and more off the mat along with how I interact with myself and the world - I feel blessed. When I look back on the 5 years in LA and the journey to become a teacher, a wife, a writer a person I see I have grown exponentially through experience and to the many people who offered me a place to feel safe to reveal myself. Yes I have grown in a major ways and what was the most important to me is the soil in which I planted my seeds then the food and nourishment that followed. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank my teachers they have said the many things which allow me to see who I am today and get a glimpse of who I am becoming. Yoga as my teacher Dr. Douglas Brooks says so beautifully is Growing Yourself - how sweet and wonderful to know so we can all see that we are becoming different flowers worth picking. Take a moment before sitting on your mat and check in to see how much you have grown and see the soil you have tended to and how it has supported you to be who you are. Also, if you are in the process of shifting and moving into a place of freedom to choose who it is you want to be let this be a practice to support, nourish and take you deeper into your beauty.

CleanPodcast #31 - Tapping into Potential and Exploring Possibilities Lvl 2-3 | After sitting nearby one of my sweet teachers Naime Jezzeny (he helped me to see both my potential and the possibilities to be the person I am today) last weekend in his workshop which focused on the Upanishads (means to sit nearby) I was inspired to share with you these teachings inspired from our teacher Dr. Douglas Brooks . When we sit among others and share, listen and realize we all have amazing potential that is in nature. Amidst this diversity you may find a moment of feeling connected to the source (potential) and through this awareness you may discover a new way to express yourself (possibilities). I know now that I always had the potential within myself to be a yoga teacher but until it was time for me to find teachers who would show me that it was possible then I was able to connect to my own heart and could actually believe it for myself - this was huge for my growth as a person and only 5 years ago. My love for yoga took me to go deeper into Philosophy and realize that I can study seeing that I was intelligent and it was possible to enjoy learning - thanks to Douglas for his teachings open me to more possibilities than I could ever imagine within myself. We all can relate when we find gifts that are within that come out on the mat, in conversation, at work or in relationships. Tap into your potential that you were born with and see what your possibilities are and if you look to those who believe in you then let them show you the possibility of becoming more of who you are. The Mala's: On this great site that one of my friends Jessica Jennings created you can scroll down to the following words - And the next three, from which come the 3 A's, are: then you will see how the Mala's play out in Anusara Yoga. Anava-mala located in the heart Karma-mala located in the pelvis Mayiya-mala located in the 3rd eye many thanks for the listing Yoga Everyday Sequence: Level 2/3 Tadasana Urdvah Hastasana then interlace fingers and stretch palms up to Samastithi Uttansana - Standing Fwd Bend to Straight Leg Lunge Down Dog w/Twist Vinyasa - Plank, Chatarunga Dandasana , Bhujangasana (cobra) Lunge Hip Opener Chest to Floor (if possible today) Vinyasa to Uttanasana Vira II - Warrior Pose then interlace fingers and fold fwd Vinyasa Trikonasana - Triangle Pose Down Dog to Vasistasana - Side Plank Childs Pose 2X Adhho Mukha Vrksasana - Handstand REST then try Variation or try this Vrksasana - Tree Pose Urdvah Hastasana then do *Vinyasa with Leg Lifted *option for plank with knee down Crescent/Vira I - Warrior 1 back Heel Lifted into Vira III - Warrior 3 Down Dog Uttanasana Malasana - Garland Pose Standing Hold Knee to Chest Prep for Padangustasana then Extent Leg Fwd Malasana taking it into Pasasana Variation - Ganapati's Noose Uttanasana to Plank Ardha Bhekasana - Thigh Stretch Dhanurasana 2X - Bow Pose Anjaneasana 2X - Low Lunge Backbend Down Dog Pigeon Prep then Twist Balasana - Child's Pose Knee to Chest then Both Knees into Chest Savasana Namaste! | 27/5/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

CleanPodcast #30 - Enjoy the Gift of Embodiment - Lvl 2 | These past few days I have being feeling a bit down, sad and not wanting to feel these feelings while they we coming to the surface of my heart. My tendency is to ignore and not let myself feel sad which in turn denies the very gift of embodiment - diversity of experience. With being in the body there is an extraordinary opportunity to connect and feel the feelings we have so why deny oneself? When we don't allow the flow to happen we deny the very gift we have been given. I first heard this from one of my teachers Dr. Douglas Brooks and it woke me up to see that yes, life (every bit of it) is a gift. When we embrace and see all of our potential even with the bad feelings or circumstances then we can better align in every way and go directly to the ocean of the heart. Some yoga's teach liberation from the body and Anusara teaches it in the body - this one gels with me. I invite you to see all that you have experienced as a gift, your life as a gift, and that you are a gift allow each one to be a portal to greater awareness. About 11 years ago being diagnosed with MS could of been a sentence to suffer but I used the yoga to turn it around and make something good out of it deepening the value of my life.

CleanPodcast #29 - Creativity & Resourcefulness - Lvl 2-3 Class | This week was sizzlin hot in LA (even though its still spring) and in the heat I was doing some spring cleaning creating more space in my closet and filing papers. As I was putting order to my stuff I found myself cutting some pants to make capri's to teach in (the heat drove me to do it), while in the process of cutting the pants I rediscovered my love for altering my clothing and that it is ok to love clothes. Little did I know that Mala my puppy was going to get some new digs out of my creative moment (my being resourceful)... yes I did make two shirts for her and she looked quite cute in her pima cotton 80's sweat shirts... What I love about the yoga is it's everywhere always taking us deeper into what we value and if we tune into the flow of our heart we can find the joy that resides inside and have an even brighter more beautiful expression. Being creative, resourceful and finding what I value allowed me to do yoga without even rolling out my mat totally cool- all in all enjoying the lila tandava (the dance of play). Find how you can do what you love and tap into something more within to see what you have already and begin to use your resources to empower yourself and enjoy your gifts on and off your mat. this is the SErratus Anterior that I mention when in Down Dog to extend from Sanskrit: Sri: Beauty Mudhya: Middle Vikrukti: Crooked or Assymetrical Ganesh: Elephant God and Son of Siva For cool tunes to listen to trip hop and not lots of chatting check out Daves's Lounge Sequence: Level 2/3 All 4's Hands and Knees Down Dog - Bend Elbows to Side 3x and Bend Knees Taking Top of Thighs Back 3X Uttanasana - Standing Fwd Bend - Look Fwd 5x Urdvah Hastasana to Uttanasana Lifting One Leg to Eka Pada Uttanasana Plank, Chattarunga Dandasana, to Bhujangasana - Cobra to Down Dog Uttanasana to Urdvah Hastasana Standing on One Leg Holding Your Shin Uttanasana to Crescent Pose to Vinyasa Down Dog to Eka Hasta to Eka Pada Uttanasana - Hold Calves with Bent Legs Opens Hamstrings Samasthiti to Uttanasana to Vira I Vinyasa to Second Side Down Dog Working Towards Handstand Prep L-Pose Handstand Samasthiti to Vrksasana - Tree Pose to Samasthiti to Urdvah Hastasana Trikonasana - Triangle Pose Ardha Chandrasana - Half Moon Parvritta Ardha Chandrasana - Twisted Half Moon Open Back into Ardha Chandrasana to Trikonasana Uttanasana Virasana - Hero Pose to Supta Virasana - Reclining Back Down Dog Lunge Hip Opener Knee Down or Up Anejaneasana to Monkey Lunge Hands Come to the Floor Usttrasana - Camel Pose Setubhandasana - Bridge Pose to Eka Pada Setubhandasana Urdvah Dhanurasana 2X - Upward Facing Bow Easy Supine Twist Suptapadangustasana Knees to Chest Savasana - Corpse Pose Namaste! | 12/5/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

CleanPodcast #28 - A Conversation with Anna Rose Hopkins | One word for Anna is...well it's actually three words - Open to Change! A few months back Anna came to City Yoga looking for a yoga class and I suggested her to take class over at Earth's Power Yoga after she told me she did flow yoga in NYC. Glad she took my theraputics class and listened to her heart - now she comes about 6x a week (check City Yoga Teachers for Tony G.) finding a love for her practice as it deepens on and off her mat. One thing that I found pretty cool was that we both practiced over at Go Yoga in Brooklyn but never knew one another - I did leave NYC in 2002 so not sure if she was there yet. | 6/5/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

CleanPodcast #27 - Spring Cleaning with Twists - All Levels | In the past couple of months I've had the opportunity to travel to Vancouver to visit and was blessed with seeing the most amazing blossoms (in the midst of rainfall) - cherry and magnolia (see in pic). Please take in the fullness (Purna) and perfection these blossoms radiate knowing that this too can come from within you especially after churning and opening your body with twists. When spring comes around its a wonderful time to cleanse and create space for new opportunities as we transition into our fullest expression. With our busy lives we forget to look up to take in beauty around us or even look into ourselves to recognize it dwells there as well. When we are pulled in to many directions we tend to loose our footing if we are not grounded - this is like doing twists. From a steady base there is the opportunity to ground down, hug in then churn and move things around a bit to enjoy the unexpected on and off the mat. What I love about twists is that they are subtle and powerful, neutralizing and cleansing as they do their work. In twists we are breathing more into one lung and when we come out our organs are flushed with new blood - the power of healing with yoga. See if you can do this practice 2 -3 times this week and discover the opening your body will have along with the tapping into your core or power. Also, you can be creative and do this with another 30 min practice skip savasana and do backbend sequence or arm balances if you desire a one hour practice. Sanskrit: Purna: Fullness, To fill, Perfection Sukha: ease Duhka: Suffering If you have not see this please watch my vidcast and share with a friend, thnx.

CleanPodcast #26 - A Conversation with Sarah Pullman | One word for Sarah is Aware! Meeting her on a cold rainy day in Vancouver while she was handling a broken heater at her house over the phone. Sarah was a vision of calm as we met in the spa at the hotel before we sat for our conversation. She greeted me with a smile which brought the light to my heart in the midst of the darkness of the day. Her voice breathes honesty in this interview as she shares how she saw around her many teachers/studios and found that those who needed yoga were some of her friends who sit all day behind computers (she found her gift). This opened her up to create Yoga for Geeks offering yoga at lunch times and at conferences for geeks - she says that you can even wear jeans to class (very cool but not sure if they have stretch in them).

CleanPodcast #25 - Taking Time to Remember 30 Min All Levels | Being reminded to take time to connect to ourselves and tap into who we really are at our core is not as easy these days with so much stimulation in our lives.... When my dear friend Elsie (who I always talk about cause she rocks) sent me an email on Good Friday which inspired this class. Funny enough I didn't even know that is was a holiday she took me to the mat to sit and go within to remember. Along with that I am grateful for being able to teach yoga this weekend at the Spring Retreat for Agape and sit & meditate in the illuminating presence of Dr. Rev. Micheal Beckwith (featured in the Secret DVD) & Dr. Ricki Byers Beckwith which reminded me why I teach yoga and live a life of service.

CleanPodcast #23 - Honor Your Process Lvl 2-3 30min | As we step into spring and move forward transitioning from the darker days to the lighter days see if you can find some personal time to honor your process, your bod, your heart - basically your yoga. Notice what is coming to fruition and what still in a stage of evolution. My teachers have said to me in many ways that inside we all have potential that is like a bija (seed), which is filled with possibilities now take note of what the soil of your awareness is in which these seeds are being cultivated in. After going through my own process of teaching for 5 years and becoming a certified Anusara teacher, I have learned that there is not just one way to do anything that there are many ways honoring our way of unfolding that works for each of us. When we give ourselves permission to be, to nurture, to see where we are in the process we are able to find ease on and off the mat. Enjoy the beauty of spring and see in nature how each tree, bud and blade of grass expresses itself in its own way just as you do. Check out the interview with Damon and for a longer class about Spring with Elsie from Elsie's Yoga Class Sequence Level 2-3: Sukhasana Balasana - Extended Child Pose, Slow Transition to Downward Facing Dog Down Dog Split - Squared Hips then take Knee to Chest and Extend Back Plank Pose to Belly to Salambasana Down Dog to Uttanasana - moving 1/2 fwd 3X Urdvah Hastasana to Uttanasana Straight Leg Lunge to Twist then Straighten Leg for Parvritta Trikonasana Variation Vinyasa Vira II to Reverse Warrior back through Vira II then Clasp Arms Behind and Fold Fwd Ostrich Pose Vinyasa Uttanasana Malasana - Garland Pose Take a Squat (pls place a blanket under heels if lifted) Bakasana - Crane Pose (working core arms bent and straighten) Uttansana Urdvah Prasarita Eka Padasana Standing Splits to Handstand Uttanansa Down Dog Straight Leg Lunge with Shoulder under Knee Parsvottonasa Variation with Back Heel Lifted Uttansana Eka Pada Koundinyasana II Balasana done Extended Childs Pose Supta Padangustasana Supine Twist - Grape Vine Legs Core Work - Legs Lifted with Hands Behind Head then Lower Knees to Chest Savasana or Meditation Namaste! special thanks to elsie for her awesome pics... and to Robin from Inner Freedom | 1/4/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

YES, and I am to her as she was able to open my eyes to see past the rain and take in with great appreciation the view from my hotel room. We connected immediately when we met and it was so wonderful to connect to the heart of someone who shares the same feeling about life. Her sharing of her transition from NYC to BC is inspiring and a great support for anyone who may wonder what their practice can offer off the mat and she says is with clarity and warmth. Christine found her teacher in her heart within herself and now had to look inside even more than she thought which I can totally relate to in my own life as we can always delve deeper.

CleanPodcast #20 - A Conversation with Emily Chung | One word for Emily is curious! She is also dedicated and has found yoga helpful for her active lifestyle with marathons, triathlons and in her life. Every time she is in class she gives her best and really wants to learn why we do what we do in yoga to find the results she desires in her body to perform better while running. I love that Emily has really brought the teachings of yoga into her life by being present and appreciating every breath, appreciating her family, friends and the gifts in her life. Yoga does help running - YEAH! She was 20 minutes better in her timing this marathon than her first one a year ago- way to go Emily. Her yoga practice has taught her to be in the moment as she is running seeing that every step is important which has enriched life for her in many ways appreciating how yoga supports her love of running. In her words - they go hand in hand.

CleanPodcast #19 - Listen, Be and Pay Attention | When we choose to soften and listen in our life, we begin to open up to a deeper place within ourselves that is powerful on its own without pushing it in any direction by paying close attention we flow into be-ing. Giving ourselves permission to connect to our inner voice and surroundings takes passive action - it's softer, more sensitive. This may be scary for some of us to allow the world to come to us but actually it takes us into parts of ourselves that may not be readily attuned. We all have this ability but it takes practice to see and be who we are. We have the freedom to ignore everything but if we take he time to soften, light a candle, say a prayer creating a sacred place we will uncover this grand energy that is closer to you than your breath.

CleanPodcast #18 - A Conversation with Lisa Busbee | One word for Lisa is - Commitment! 40 days ago Lisa came to my class at City Yoga - this was her first and that is when she decided to partake in the 40 day for $140 program there. Looking at her I thought she has been doing this for many years it must of been her flexible mind and openness of being a healer that kept her in great shape. She came to all of my classes and was working through life's challenges and eventually I could see she became lighter as she found her freedom to be Herself! A beauty for sure and what a lovely woman who has utilized her practice in such a productive way. You will definitely tap into her authenticity as she shares honestly from her heart. Congrats to her for sticking to 40 days and perhaps you will be inspired to take on such an awesome commitment for your personal growth. YEAH!

CleanPodcast #17 - Karma (Action) Level 1 Class | Karma (Action) is a word some of us refer to everyday to explain a boomerang of events that happen from what we do. We may even see it when we are getting a cup of coffee/tea in the morning on the counter a "Good Karma" cup inviting up to leave a tip. I have read that most philosophical schools say that karma is action and from what we do there is a response to our choices, ramifications or reactions. But when I delved deeper, I learned about the Wheel of Karma talking about life which says that being in the body means you have more work to do that you didn�t do in the last life - I did not like this at all in some way it says that life is a punishment. Today, I invite you to see how your life is a blessing and there is nothing to get out of but to go in and creatively step into your life, the world we want to live in by applying our intention with right action. I invite you to see that you did nothing wrong to be here but that the divine chose to be you and that you have the opportunity to enjoy being in this marvelous body. Tantra offered me the perspective to see that we are not stuck in a yoga that is filled with dogma of what we have to do but that we choose what we do to create our life. Contemplate about life not being a set of rules to design your outcomes but that you can find your way to discover that many opportunities to change the way you are becoming even better using right action to live more fully on and off your mat.

CleanPodcast #16 - Conversation with Elena Brower | One word for Elena is - Poetic! When I was in NYC I had time to take an inspiring yoga class at Vira Yoga with friend and teacher Elena Brower. Amazing how energy is different in NY and LA, in NY on foot moving with people, LA in cars seperate from others - what a different dance on the coasts which offers great diversity in life. In class we moved our bodies and went deep into our breath focusing on our back body. It is crucial to listen, slow down and receive, boy am I happy for that reminder. Happy 5th Birthday to Vira Yoga which is really exciting to be part of and auspicious to share my 5th year of teaching with. Now Elena is a wife, mother, teacher and business owner together we hear how yoga helps her to listen and how she experience's the world moving towards her.

CleanPodcast #15 - Effort, Surrender, Self-study | The yoga of Patanjali offers us Yoga Sutras including the 8 limbs of yoga. Within these 8 limbs are the Yamas (social inter-action with others) and Niyamas (inter-action we have with ourselves). There are 5 Yamas and 5 Niyamas making them kinda like the 10 commandments of Yoga. For this class I focused on 3 of the Niyamas - Tapas (effort), Svadhyaya (self-study) , and Ishvara Pranidhana (surrender to the divine). In life we mostly do, effort and forget to feel the connection to something bigger - when we take time to reflect or study we can see where we are with both. In yoga effort is important to get to the mat keep your arms strong in down dog but to leave space to soften even surrender to this greater energy. Through self-study on and off the mat using scriptures or any books that take you deeper one can see there tendency and make a choice to see balance of these actions.

CleanPodcast # 13 - Nityakarma (responsiblities) Level 1-2 Class | Being responsible and taking care of our bills, our car, our bodies is part of yoga and action. If we ignore what we have to do then when we want to experience other delights in life there can be difficulty and even a disconnect without the foundation being cared for. Nitya karma is exactly that keeping all the ducks in a row, being accountable which the universe does all the time. Kaamya karma is where we play with what we want to do (desire) within the support of these boundaries. One is stability which offers freedom to express as the other opens us to explore the wonders of life with its duties and desires. Traditionally the definition can be read through these links: Nitya Karmas and Kaamya Karmas. How I am using these words is in relation to our everyday life outside of Hindu life which translates quite nicely. This was how I was taught by my teacher, Dr. Douglas Brooks. Links: Elsie's Yoga Kula , High Road Tee's (in photos) , Yoga Chocolate My puppy Mala - Sanskrit: Karma - action , Prana - life force Sequence Level 2: Downward Facing Dog Downward Facing Dog Splits Uttanasana Ardha Uttananasana Sun Salutations also known as Vinyasa Crescent Pose Vinyasa Utthita Parsvakonasana Vinyasa Ardha Chandrasana to Trikonasana Prasarita Paddottonasana with Clasped Hands Behind You into a Twist to Each Side Uttanasana Pada Hastasana - Hasta Padangustasana Uttasana Samasthiti L-Pose at the Wall Balasana - Childs Pose Baddha Parsavakonasana - Bound Extended Side Angle Pose Downward Facing Dog Eka Pada Rajakapotasana Prep - Pigeon Prep Downward Facing Dog Anjaneasana Thigh Stretch - Low Lunge with Thigh Stretch Dhanurasana 2X - Bow Pose Parsva Dhanurasana Parvritta Balasana - Twisted Childs Pose Extended Childs Pose Navasana - Boat Pose to Ardha Navasana - 1/2 Boat Pose Setubhanda - Bridge Pose Supta Padangustasana Meditatation Savasana | 20/1/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

We take what we know (our habits, fears, loves, patterns) into the new year hoping to do things better or differently. Samskara's are patterns/imprints that you are born with, impressions you created and show up like groves in a record playing again and again. It's up to us to step into the yoga and make better choices through contrast while we apply our willingness to be better on our mats and off the mats.

I had the blessed opportunity to take X-mas weekend off in Ojai with my husband and puppy at the Lavendar Inn and had a blast hangin with Kira. (thanks to Lara from Yoga Peeps who suggested I interview her..) Ojai has made an impact on Kira's life on and off the mat.

CleanPodcast #9 - Courage Level 1/2 Class (Hips, Twists, Fwd Bends) | Courage is a quality of mind and heart that all of us have or are not sure how to dive in and apply in our lives. Fear becomes the great holder of this energy bravery ushers us through it. The root of the word courage is ifrom the french word Coeur meaning heart. It takes courage of the heart to go deeper into the questions of who you are and who you want to be in the world. I have looked back on this year to see the many things of have done for the first time - all which took my focus and energy to find my endless wellspring of strength and courage. After we take steps into the unknown, we take steps into a pool of fear, we take steps into our heart which allows us to grow and become the person we choose to be. Always remember YOU are NOT ALONE!!! Many have walked the path you have and if that confronts you use this as the fuel for 2007 to do new poses, make new friends, or perhaps forgive that one person you haven't yet. Remember these are suggestions and you are not obligated by any means as you are FREE to choose.. I chose to stay on the floor for the most part in seated poses to take us in out and twisted around all to find where this courage you have lies. Appreciate what you did this year, revel in that and now there is an even stronger base to step into the fire to transform, evolve and enjoy the life you desire to live.

CleanPodcast #7 - Co-create with the Breath/Level 1 Class | Just Breathe... Simple huh? We do it unconsciously more than consciously and even if we forget to breathe it happens as long as we are alive. If you hold your breath you will pass out then She (the goddess) will breathe you. Once I understood how the rhythm of my breath moved within my body my practice deepened & expanded. I became more connected and in touch with how I felt, connected to others and most importantly my body finding ease. Breathing is simple yet complex at times but always there to guide us when we focus our awareness on its flow. note: you may hear more of my breath with a new mic - thank you Gayle In this episode I mention a Tantric way of looking at the breath in the form of the goddess/universe and you are co-participating with her as you inhale and exhale. WOW - is right that was my response until I went deeper and actually found comfort in the thought and reality of it. I must thank my sweet teacher who poetically taught me this beautiful teaching of breath. (Douglas Brooks is my teacher of Rajanka Tantra) Soon he will have a book out titled Rajanaka Heart. "The breath ties the soul to the body"- Paramahansa Yogananada click to find his book Autobiograpy of a Yogi Sanskrit Vocabulary: Shakti - divine feminine /expression Prana - Life force Muscle Energy described on Vira Yoga's Site (nyc studio) Anusara Yoga in Wikipedia COOL INFO: Did you know that dolphins choose to breathe and never sleep... they are always in the moment of the breath perhaps they are the goddess consciously breathing us?

CleanPODCAST #5 - Reacting vs. Responding Level 1/2 Class | The other day I found out something that I was not supposed to know and got upset. I was pissed off really taking this personally then reacted from a place of feeling lack, not being recognized or considered in this situation. This was not the best choice for me to do but then I went to my car and realized with a little space from the situation that I totally reacted and didn't take a moment to actually turn in to myself and breathe knowing there is an abundant universe. Taking this to my mat into my practice I could see how I move fast in a pose almost like a reaction instead of staying with my breath working through it. As the holidays come closer check to see if you are moving from your ego body or your bigger sense of the whole this is a great practice especially when in a place of discomfort. Yoga is about responding with knowledge and from a space of feeling connected to something bigger inside and out to do this in the practice we initiate the poses from the back body allowing the front to be soft and sensitive.

CleanPODCAST #2: Interview with My Student Gio | Greetings Yogi's and Yogini's I have decided to have mini-interviews with students of yoga as a conversation about the practice of yoga in their life. We all participate in a conversation with the divine but are we listening and benefiting from its grace? I begin this with some simple questions but there is a moment that takes us deeper like any good conversation. In this episode I interview my student Gio who I have been working with a little over a year before and after him being hit by 2 cars. He was hit by two cars that ran over a year ago and is walking and doing yoga - Amazing!!! He is even handstands and backbends. We have been working together using Yoga Therapy as a way to heal his body which he talks about. The style of yoga I teach is Anusara Yoga which is a therapeutic yet energetic yoga that has a strong focus on the heart. Yoga therapy uses postures with alignment that allows the body to come back into its optimal blueprint which we all have. If you are interested in being interviewed pls contact me and if there are any questions about yoga therapy or would like me to ask a question that you would find beneficial pls let me know. | 18/11/06 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

CleanPODCAST #1: Theme - Sadhana (Practice) | Greetings and welcome to my first podcast. I must take a moment to thank a few people that offered there time , support and expertise - Elsie , Angela & my husband Asaf. If you are new to yoga or have been practicing a great resource to see postures (asanas) is B.K.S. Iyengar Light on Yoga. Worth having on your book shelf and a great way to see potential in a posture. Here is the sequence for this class,it is a level one class running about an hour. I will be practicing with my students at a studio in LA and you (meaning its a live class recorded). There are some terms that may be new but go with it and let me know your thoughts FEEDBACK!!! please as this will take a lot of practice in every way to offer you the best service I would like to allowing me to get better every time I do create a podcast. Please look over the sequence to see what you will be doing and become familiar with sanskrit and if you do have Light on Yoga and dont know a pose look it up.
