Yoga, 'Pranayama' & Meditation ~ A Lifestyle to Enhance Calm and Personal Power




I'm excited to share the cornerstones of my life-style with you! Welcome to a mini Yoga, 'Pranayama' and Meditation introduction. Yoga, Pranayama, and Meditation help me stay balanced, and keep my energy positively charged- mind, body and soul. An ongoing discipline of the above practices produces inner clarity, a steady calm, and a silent wealth of empowerment. This comes about by aligning the student with the ability to access their higher self, or authentic (true) self, and inevitably, one's personal power. Perform these techniques along with me- increase the ability to love yourself and your Beautiful Body more each day! 
Blessings and Enjoy,
Tuesday May



YOGA

Yoga gifts us a graceful connection to the body via the breath. It serves to root us within the authentic self, while blessing us with an aptitude to be present, grateful and conscious of our thoughts and actions. It connects us to an endless, universal supply of life force energy, or Prana. The video links seem to have trouble appearing on the IPad, so I've added direct links below. Please scroll down to continue viewing blog <3

PRANAYAMA


Pranayama (pronounced as it sounds) is the name given to yogic breathing practices that serve to extend the breath and enhance ones ability to channel and store life force energyPrana is life force energy- the invisible energy that gives life and motion to all things and beings. The more prana or life-force flows through you, the better your mind, body and emotions can run in harmonic balance with one another. Nadi Suddhi helps relieve stress and anxiety brought on by over-thinking. When performing this breathing exercise, envision breathing life force energy into your system.

MEDITATION


When I started meditating it was hard to sit still. I was bombarded by a million thoughts pushing my mind here and there. Having a picture to paint helped me keep focused. Train your mind to stay centered in the present moment and detached from the past and future by trying a guided meditation. The title to this meditation is 'Deep Healing Reiki Meditation', and is appropriate for all levels. Reiki is an ancient form of hands-on healing whereby the individual is recognized as a conduit for the flow of prana.
