Kundalini Yoga with Trish

Did you know?

2009-06-07T08:40:00.003-04:00

Sat Nam all you Kundalinis,
Did you know that the web has a host of information for you to deepen your understanding and strengthen your commitment to your practice?
The ikyta.com website can help you find classes anywhere in the world so when you go on vacation you can check out a class in french or greek or japanese and yes, it's still Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo.
The Aquarian Times magazine has tons of info on yogic lifestyles, it includes kundalini kriyas with explanations, meditations and it always has a section from Prosperity Paths. Good to know these days.
All the music, manuals, yogi Tea and even the white yoga attire is available at spiritvoyage.com
Last but by no means least is the main website for Kundalini and that is the 3HO.com site, well worth browsing.

Much love and light,
Trish

Womens Camp Time

Women as a group are most sharp individuals. God has given them a second faculty in the brain to protect the child. A woman can be super obnoxious or super sweet and she can change in a moment. Man doesn't have the faculty. By nature he either lives in his testicles or in his head. He does not have the natural tendency to live in the center of his being. But woman always lives in the center and works both up and down. - Yogi Bhajan

May Peace Prevail on Earth

2008-09-23T16:01:00.003-04:00

Thanks to all you loyal folks for coming to class every week and experiencing Kundalini yoga for yourselves. I enjoy teaching so much more than I could ever have imagined and I love hearing from students about what they experience during and after class. I especially enjoy hearing how my students apply the teachings of my beloved teacher in their daily lives, making life less stressful, more prosperous and more joy filled.
As Yogi Bhajan said, "keep up and be kept up".
Yogi Bhajan warned us that as we shifted into the Aquarian Age there would be severe hardships and much corruption in the world and we need to be stronger than ever in our core, we need to be solid in our convictions yet live with great compassion and grace. To get through difficult times we must use our sadhana, our daily practice and meditate to find the divine within, to stay present with each moment, not allowing our disappoint of the past nor our fear of the future to pull us away from the only moment that is real, the present. To distance ourselves from the chaos of our minds, not succumbing to the volatility of our emotions, we must meditate. We're more than our thoughts and our emotions and meditation is the vehicle to our soul, to self realisation.
Love, light and peace to all,
Sat Nam,
Trish
May peace prevail on earth

Womens Camp and Essential Oils

2008-07-12T10:39:00.003-04:00

What an experience womens camp turned out to be. I have to admit that when I first arrived and saw that I would be sleeping in a tent in the middle of the Santa Clara Reserve with porta potties, no hot water and a wake up call, (beautifully sung by our wake up missal) at 3:15 am I thought I had made a big mistake.
Getting up before the sun to a sky laden with stars, including a shooting star on my first morning, was both exhilarating and mystical. It was not nearly as hard as I thought it would be thanks to the support and energy of so many beautiful women surrounding me.
Sadhana has always been a place of peace and calming for me and sharing the experience with so many adi shaktis from all over the world was uplifting and clarifying.
The location of Ram Das Puri on the Hopi Reservation is sacred and healing. The energies of so many great spirits are palpable in the wind, the huge blue sky, the mountains and the sounds of the coyotes in the distance. Womens camp followed on the heals of Solstice which had 1800 people doing white tantric yoga for three days and we really did get to ride the energies of so many.
My beautiful young living essential oils were of benefit to me and countless others helping to heal and sustain us through it all.

The Third Jesus by Deepak Chopra

2008-03-09T09:13:00.003-04:00

My last blog I spoke of Ekhart Tolle's book a New Earth which I am loving and as I watched Oprah and Ekhart last Monday I realised that for many of us raised Christian we struggle to understand the concept of God consciousness within the teachings of Jesus. I recently attended an event in the city where Deepak Chopra spoke of his new book, "The Third Jesus" and I bought the book. Last night I finally started reading it and I realised this book is the key to understand the teachings of Jesus without identifying with any of the creeds, doctrines, dogmas of the ecclesiactical institutions. It is beautiful to me to hear the familiar words of the Jesus of my upbringing brought in to a new light, an understanding that sits very lightly with me and I feel joy in embracing these ideas; and being me I had to share my discovery.

Exciting Times

2008-02-24T14:35:00.002-05:00

What exciting times we live in, I'm reading "A New Earth" by Ekhart Tolle and I have signed up for Oprah's virtual duscusion group of said book. It's so in keeping with the teachings of Yogi Bhajan and I love learning new ways to descibe the experience of Kundalini Yoga.
I have also become a distributor for an amazing product called Young Living essential oils. These are therapeutic level essential oils with amazing blends and all the oils are grown under the strictest of organic circumstances with respect for the local environments and the local workers. I read that the third main cause of death in the US, after heart disease and cancer, is "medical treatment". I know that's a broad term but nevertheless if Mother Nature can provide us with gentle, non harmful yet effective solutions to common problems why not use them.
I look forward to sharing some of these oils in class.
Love, light and peace to all,
Sat Nam,
Trish

This week

2007-11-27T15:15:00.001-05:00

Words from Swamiji
People who are nasty, irritating, annoying or who seemingly work against you, may have been sent in order to show you that you are intolerant, impatient, capable of ill will, spite, retaliation or a spirit of vengefulness. Unless you are provoked, how can you know what is within you?So we must constantly try to see how to unfold our higher nature. Then life becomes very interesting. It will have something to tell us every moment. Rather than being something to be avoided, annoyances may be a challenge, a warning, or a helping hand.
-Swami Chidananda

Hoping to see some of you tomorrow at the Racquets Club at 9:30am or at Terra Sky at 6:30pm
