The Inner Hurricane

Image
I'd like to thank the impending hurricane Isaac for inspiring this blog post.  May you be a gentle storm and make your visit brief... Time to prepare for the hurricane..flashlights check, candles check, water check, food check.  The good news of the hurricanes that exist in nature is that we can prepare for them and take necessary precaution as best as we can.  Although, you never know their true magnitude until they show up.  We know we can expect high winds, rain, perhaps some thunder/lightening/hail.  No amount of wishing will send the hurricane away and it is out of our complete control to re-route its path.  So what do we do once it arrives, we sit, watch, and wait for it to pass.  We know that it may be ugly, but eventually the hurricane will run its course and beautiful clear skies will once again be in our neighborhood.   Just as mother nature's hurricane, we have all experienced the mind's hurricane, where it feels l...

Sivananda Part 2

Image
The Sivananda Ashram Journey Part 2: Day 2 through Day 14: Day 2 was the official start of the Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy training, which in total was a 13 day course.  After that glorious 5:30 wake up bell and 6am-8am satsang, we had our opening ceremony, which included a puja (this is a traditional Indian prayer ritual to celebrate an event or deity).  It involved some chanting, being initiated into the training by the priest and teachers of the course.   After this the 14 or so enrolled in the course gathered with Dr. Marc Halpern and Marisa Laursen, as they explained what we would be partaking in for the next 13 days, as well as introducing ourselves.  I was feeling quite uneasy that morning and still felt like jumping out of my skin with this mysterious experience I was about to venture in to.  In fact, I was feeling so uneasy that after all the other students left, I personally approached Dr Halpern and Marisa in tea...
