Here is a glimpse into my life and my amazing students and wonderful memories from my recent yoga teacher trainings in Koh Phangan, Thailand.

Humble Warrior - Baddha Virabhadrasana I chose thi

Humble Warrior - Baddha Virabhadrasana
I chose this pose and it's variation today because a warrior displays inner and outer strength, steadfastness and resolution. At the same time there is humility, reverence, and respect.
🕉️🙏🕉️
Humility may be the single most quality that is lacking in this modern world of consumerism and narcissism.
🙏🕉️🙏
It's my hope that as a worldwide culture we further our abilities to empathize, listen, reflect, learn, and grow. Admitting that these things are necessary doesn't display weakness. Quite the contrary.

Mondays are for hip opening. It just seems like the right place to start and prepare for the rest of the week.
🕉️🙏🕉️
Theoretically, activation of svadhisthana chakra opens you for pleasure, passion, and flow. Let's bring that into our week!

Vashistasana II ➡️ Hanumanasana I've been thin

Vashistasana II ➡️ Hanumanasana
I've been thinking a lot about transitions. I'm in one, the entire world is in one.
🕉️🙏🕉️
Transitions are more than just the stages between two poses. Each moment of a transition is a pose within itself, with something to contemplate, consider, experience, and learn from.
🙏🕉️🙏
In one of my previous transitions I was closing down my fitness and yoga studio that I owned for 2 years in Portland, Oregon. At the time of its closure I felt like a failure. However, it was that very experience of owning and managing my own location that landed me as program director of a yoga school and resort in Thailand. That allowed me to create, develop, and implement my teacher training, which I've led 20 times and graduated students from over 40 countries.
🕉️🙏🕉️
What comes next is as uncertain for me as it is for anyone, but everything that's come before, has adequately prepared me for what's next. That I'm certain of.
🙏🕉️🙏
Approach each transition as you would each pose... with duty, reverence, devotion, perseverance, and presence. There's something important to be learned from your immediate experience.

Ustrasana ➡️ Lagu Vajrasana ➡️ Kapotasana

Ustrasana ➡️ Lagu Vajrasana ➡️ Kapotasana
Yogis, bend but don't break. We roll with the punches. We put one foot in front of the other and keep doing that which we must. Don't let the world beat you down when things get rough, and don't think that you're "all that" when things are going your way.
🕉️🙏🕉️
Discipline and self reflection are two hallmarks of the practice. Tapas and Svadhyaya. Now, more than perhaps ever in our modern lifetimes do we have the opportunities to embody the practice of these things.
🕉️🙏🕉️
Ninety nine percent of what bothers you is about you. Ninety nine percent of what
bothers others has nothing to do with you. Notice how you blame others for your
problems or take responsibility for others’ problems. Practice taking responsibility for
yourself, and let others take responsibility for themselves.
🕉️🙏🕉️
Make sure to take the time to get on your mats, clear your thoughts, and let the practice do it's work. It happens almost automatically, BUT you HAVE to get on your mat in the first place.

Maintain a steady mind through pleasure and pain,

Maintain a steady mind through pleasure and pain, gain and loss, victory and defeat,
engage in this battle, indifferent to the outcome.

There is a lot of work ahead for all of us. Let us act from focused presence instead of reactive emotion. 🕉️❤️🙏❤️🕉️ If our heart is in the right place, the cause is good, and we are the right person to fulfill the task, then we should go for it, despite the challenges and obstacles that will come our way. There is no promise of smooth sailing, but we can keep the boat steady for better results.

Often when we act, some part of our mind is worrying about the outcome. The irony is that the worry divides and weakens the mind, making a successful result less likely. With equanimity of mind, if we gather all our faculties and focus them on the action, without the mind jumping ahead to concern for the end result, we tap into powerful resources that will lead to the best possible result. And even if things don’t work out exactly as we had wished, it is better than the ego achieving “success” by hook or by crook, which will leave us with a bitter taste in our mouth and an uneasy conscience.

Now on my YouTube channel - I combined a voice recording from one of my classes with a video of myself practicing to the recording. This is a mixed level, full spectrum intermediate vinyasa style class. We will go through most pose categories and ranges of motion. There is a little bit of something here for everyone.

Sometimes life turns you upside down. Sometimes, life turns the whole world upside down. A Yogi is the same in happiness or distress, loss or gain, victory or defeat. Be resolute and steadfast. Be an even keel and equanimous. Be a source of stability for those around you. We'll get through this one breath at a time, one day at a time. #lessonsfrombhagavadgita #yogakohphangan #yogi #bhagavadgita

🌅Absolutely stunning sunsets on this little island of Koh Phangan. It's been a true blessing to have been able to spend so much time here, connecting with nature, teach yoga, and meet wonderful people from around the world. Several more months of my time here, and on to the next adventure in Italy next year.
See you here or there.
