"Knowing is not enough; We must apply. Willing is not enough; We must do."  – 
Bruce Lee

I hate to break it to you, but your yoga journey is never over!

Yoga is a continual practice and as your practice evolves...  your life evolves.

So, how do you REALLY advance your yoga/asana practice?

Practice What You Resist – It’s What You Need The Most - If you are constantly looking for movement, be still in your poses and learn to hold them. If you are looking for more "advanced" expressions, practice the basics and get your foundation aligned before you misalign yourself to feed the ego. If you resist savasana or poses where ease and less effort is needed, engage in those with more frequency. 

Be Humble And Open To Learning - Pretty basic,right? Check your. ego at the door and always understand that you are always a student first and. forever, and there is no mastery of anything in yoga.

Ask questions and be willing to learn how to get into variations of poses that suit your body's needs - Again, always understanding that there is a basic schematic to poses, but not all poses are for every-body.

Use Props -- Blocks, straps and other tools for modifications accentuate poses and make the poses more accessible in a functional manner. The strongest practitioners I know always start their practice by gathering their props and using them effectively instead of shunning them thinking they are crutches or not needed.

Don’t Be Afraid To Take One More Breath - Get out of your comfort zone, take one more cycle of breath, be ok with going at a varying pace... as my teacher used to say, "the pose begins when you want to get out if it!"

PRACTICE EVERYDAY: Whether it's meditation, breathing work or poses... you'll never just fly into Crow for example if you don't self study and do it over and over and over again. As that above Bruce Lee quote states, just do it. Or, is that NIKE™ that says that?


Oh.... and HAVE FUN! I know, I know... we take ourselves serious on the mat. I DO TOO! But being lighthearted, not as hard on yourself will have you more open to explore,  sets a good mindframe for enhancing your pose work without feeling so stressed about doing it "right" or "mastering" an expression of an asana.

“Yoga is the artwork of awareness on the canvas of body, mind, and soul.” 
― Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana: An Integrated LifeStyle
Victor Cotto Yoga NYC Vicyasa Park Gantry Long Island City FREE Best Time Out NY LuluLemon AloYoga Manhattan YogaJournal YogaDigest New Yorker Magazine Summer Fun
Yoga is a tool to help us find ease in the body, silence the occupied mind, and get in touch with our true nature. It can also be a way of helping us tap into our creative selves.

The art and science of breathing with a keen sense of awareness in our meditation and the practice of staying in control during our asana [poses] practice grant us access to the deepest places of our psyche and consciousness that arouse and trigger creative ideas to emerge, while simultaneously offering us tools to work with some of our biggest mental & emotional obstacles. Regardless of what arts, innovative or inspiring hobbies or general work you engage in that exhausts cognition, your yoga practice can fully connect you with your creative mind, body, and soul.

Asana and pranayama [controlled breathing] help fuel the creative process by increasing and directing the flow of prana, the intelligent life force, through the energy conduits in our body. 

By mindfully observing and inspecting the full range of our experience on and off the mat, we pave a path to be more creative and embrace our authentic self.

“There is no moment more precious than the exact moment they are living. And that exact moment has a lot to do with how future moments play out.”
― Obert Skye
“Challenge and adversity are meant to help you know who you are. Storms hit your weakness, but unlock your true strength.”

It’s challenging enough to keep up a consistent wellness practice under normal circumstances. 

When life becomes disordered, as it has the last few months, it can seem daunting to do the things we know we need; commit to self care and stay healthy physically and mentally. Our motivation for sustaining our practice can be gobbled up by anxiety, fear, sadness, or anger. These are the times when we most need the strength that our wellness practices teaches us how to cultivate.

“Rolling out your mat” is such a useful starting point because it’s an opening ritual. This prepares us for practice and separates your focused self-care routine from the mundane activities of the rest of the day. Your mat creates a space in your life for wellness. Your mat is a sanctuary. 

Yoga interrupts the cycle of the stress response, and during our practice, we give the body & mind an opportunity to heal.

The sensitive awareness of the body and the intelligence of the brain and heart should be in harmony. The brain may instruct the body to do a posture, but the heart has to feel it too. The head is the seat of intelligence; the heart is the seat of emotion. Both have to work in cooperation with the body.  - BKS Iyengar
Picture
Why does it feel so good when we practice ASANA (yoga poses)? The magic of asanas is that they allow the principle of unity (body and mind, body and soul, with divinity) to be initiated and experienced on a physical level, with ripple effects into mental, emotional and spiritual levels. 

When we combine the practice of movement with the control of our breathing, it has a complete effect of unification. In The Heart of Yoga , DKV Desikachar states that breath and movement need to be consciously linked, as breathing is a vital tool to amalgamate the inner and outer selves: “For breath and movement to be coordinated, our mind must attentively follow their union … The rules for linking breath and movement are simple: when we contract the body we exhale and when we expand the body we inhale”.

Energy flows where attention goes --  you can choose to focus on activities that connect you to a benevolent force that unifies and lovingly supports all beings. The Yoga practice has the potential to not only transform your life but, through ripple effects, it can bring many positive benefits to others. In this way you can actually become a potent force for change!
