Why Don't I have My Own Studio Location Yet?



Dear (yoga studio),

I have enjoyed what free time I have been able to spend at the (yoga studio) and find all the teachers I have come into contact with absolutely lovely, so anatomically knowledgeable and alignment oriented.  I really appreciate the stressing of the fundamentals such as attention to exercises in fine-tuning the evenness of foot pressure through all four corners in both level one and level two classes. A little bummed out that I am yet to make it to a level 3 class. Anyways, it is always nice to be reminded of the little things and guided to better alignment in even the simplest of poses.  Always a nice and humbling reminder to know it is okay to kick it down a notch or two....  I always find it so hard to go continue paying a yoga studio AND do what the teacher is asking when my energy inspires me to move differently (take a deeper version of a pose or deviate to an entirely different one occasionally), as I have built upon my practice for over 15 years.  I am already feeling a strong hesitation to get seriously into my practice here, while I am being micromanaged on basics and not being given any invitation to go deeper into any asanas.   I suppose what I am getting at is this is...   If you ever rent out space for other teachers to give guest workshops on safe movements into back bending, arm balances and inversions, please do feel free to keep a line of communication open with me, and try not to take my words the wrong way.  I have just been watching the way many yoga studios operate over the past 12 or so years and am beginning to see the various manners in which many studios manifest expressions of their own philosophies.  Some of these philosophies are unconsciously fear-based.   If you wish to turn down my offer today, that is fine.  If you change your mind after I publish a book,  tour and give workshops elsewhere, establishing a name for myself, please feel free to say "yes", that is if I actually look at your studio ever again.  Oops.  Was that too confident sounding?  Sorry.  I'll try to kick it down a couple notches. ;)

Amazing Unicorn Mist?

Image
I am beginning the initial stages of creating a high-vibration aromatherapeutic product called AUM. This is almost exactly what the label will look like! This gentle, moisture-balancing astringent purifies everything, including your complexion and the air. It also kills mildew, molds and germs! This is Amazing Unicorn Mist! If you spray it into your own face (with your eyes closed), it won't make you break out. In fact it will soothe your skin.  If you are experiencing Kundalini 'hot flashes', it can be a welcome relief from this or any other unwanted agitation.  Please feel free to participate in donating to the initial expenses to legitimize and package my product.  The first owners of this bottle will be the first 3 people to donate me $50 will receive a bottle in the mail before the April 13th in-store release date.  If you want to reserve a bottle for yourself, send me $18 in Paypal and I will mail it to you anywhere in the continental US. I will correspond with

My Latest Observations - AUSTRALIA UPDATE

World peace is possible, but each of us are required to give birth to it.  Breathe life into the world that is you, through right conduct, recovering your power-- your true self.  When we can embody truth, we can positivly impact our community.  However, in the process, we must understand that which we call "drama".   Life is full of struggles, however we often tend to focus in on when these struggles are poorly handled, and call it "drama".  No. Grumpy Kat says "NO"!  This is an unconstructive dead end dispute.   Drama is necessary for human progress.  This is why it is so easy for us to rationalise and readily defend the importance in the creative consciousness outpourings of others, known as theater, cinema, and books.  We are placing our own stories on the backburner in favor of other people's mental products.   We are hindering our own ability to tap into the innate revelatory and powerful psychic potential locked within each of us.

Big Lesson on Spirit Realm & Giving to God

Just in time for the approach of Samhein, Halloween, and the Day of the dead.... Here comes a DOOZY about the spirit realm, complete with dark scary ghost stories! Make yourself a cup of hot cocoa and prepare to be thrilled, chilled, entertained, and potentially a little more sensitive to your connection to and position in the universe around you..... I just returned to the United states from a month in Bali, in the magical spiritual village of Balian! Well, all of bali is quite magical and spiritual, but Balian is the place of the mystics and magical healers. Have you ever wondered how so many Eastern cultures all over the world who live in "poor developing countries" are able to remain so selfless, loving, happy, and caring toward others?   How can people who live in conditions that many westerners revile as dirtier and beneath the quality of our standards be so happy go lucky? When we might feel like we are caught in a panic, struggling in a desperate situation
