Remember, this practice is about creating practical tools for daily equilibrium, so we encourage you to notice how these techniques are supporting you in maintaining that balanced energy state we've been cultivating together.

We're integrating comprehensive stress management techniques with our breathwork practice, creating a more holistic approach to your well-being. Pranayama is fundamentally about energizing the body - where inhaling energizes and exhaling relaxes. Our integrated approach will help you learn to harness your energy so it doesn't fluctuate wildly, but instead finds a balanced middle ground that allows you to achieve a relaxed state and manage stress effectively. Our goal is to help you maintain a balanced energy state that serves both relaxation and stress relief, giving you the ability to use Pranayama for both energizing and calming purposes as needed. ** Upcoming Class Details ------------------------------------------------------------ ðï¸ Date: Saturday July 12th (No Class Sunday July 13th) â° Time: 6AM to 8AM ET & 9:30AM to 11:30AM ET ð Location: Online via Zoom (Sign Up Here!

This ancient wisdom from sutra 2.46 teaches us that our asana practice should embody both sthira (stability, strength, steadiness) and sukham (comfort, ease, joy, referring to a "good space"). This isn't just about physical postures - it's about finding that perfect balance between effort and ease that can transform your entire approach to yoga and life. The video also delves into sutra 2.47, exploring the dissolution of effort (prayatna saithilya) and meditation on the infinite (ananta samapattibhyam) as companions to asana practice. We hope it encourages you to explore our longer, related teachings as well. ** Personal Guidance: One-on-One Consultations with Sudhir ------------------------------------------------------------ Understanding that each practitioner's journey is unique, we're pleased to offer private, one-on-one consultations with Sudhir for those with specific health or wellness concerns that you prefer to address individually rather than in a group setting. This personalized approach allows for tailored guidance and support that honors your specific needs and circumstances. Sudhir is committed to providing comprehensive support to ensure you receive the most appropriate guidance for your particular situation. These sessions create a safe, confidential space for deeper exploration of your practice and wellness goals.

Stress is Imbalance ------------------------------------------------------------ When our mind, body, and spirit are out of harmony, stress manifests as the symptom of this disconnection. ** 2. Stress is Speed ------------------------------------------------------------ In our fast-paced world, the relentless speed of modern life often overwhelms our natural rhythms. ** 3. Stress is Perception (Deepak Chopra) ------------------------------------------------------------ Any situation we perceive as a physical or psychological threat becomes a source of stress - highlighting how our mindset shapes our experience. ** 4. Stress is a Reaction, Not an Action ------------------------------------------------------------ Understanding that stress is our response to circumstances, not the circumstances themselves, empowers us to change our relationship with challenging situations. ** 5. Autonomic Nervous System Response ------------------------------------------------------------ Stress triggers our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system reactions, affecting our entire being. ** Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times ------------------------------------------------------------ In Sanskrit, we recognize "Adhi Ja Vyaadhi" - stress-born diseases. The progression from Adhi (mental disturbance) to Vyaadhi (physical disease) to Upaadhi (chronic conditions) shows us how untreated stress manifests in our lives. But there is hope and healing available to us. ** Your Weekend Practice ------------------------------------------------------------ This weekend, we'll explore practical techniques to restore balance, slow down our internal speed, shift our perceptions, and calm our nervous system responses. Come prepared to learn tools you can apply immediately in your daily life. We encourage you to share your experiences as you begin implementing these stress management principles. Your journey may inspire others in our community! ------------------------------------------------------------ OM Shanthi, Shanti, Shantihi OM Peace, Peace, Peace be with us!
