“Can words describe the fragrance of the very breath of spring?” – Neltje Blanchan  Spring is an opportunity for renewal and rebirth — for planting seeds to nurture, and witnessing the unending cycle of growth and change.
Start your day by drinking a glass of water (add a splash of lemon and ginger) to invigorate your liver, enhance your digestion and help clear out any accumulated mucus. Throughout the day, hydrate to further nourish your liver and gallbladder. Spring yoga classes will also help you create space in your body for the new, wringing out sluggishness accumulated over winter and releasing frustration and anger, emotions associated with imbalances. Finish your practice with focused yin, longer-held postures to stimulate energy flow to the liver by targeting the liver and gallbladder meridian lines: the channels through which chi or prana (your body’s vital force) flows. View every yoga class as a fresh start. Forget what came before and don’t worry about what might come next. Take every class—or for that matter every asana and every breath—as a chance to be something entirely new.

“What we choose to focus on and what we choose to ignore—plays in defining the quality of our life.” – Cal Newport  A lot of our unhappiness is not solely from the occurrences of our life, but from the story the mind tells you about those circumstances.
There are two parts to this cycle where negative thoughts can hinder us. The first is the actual event or happening; pain we experience here is due to external situations that we are unable to control [or avoid]. Getting sick, loss of loved ones, getting into conflicts, losing our job, experiencing grief etc. The second has to do with our reaction to the event; our thoughts. When we react negatively, blaming, shaming, aversion, getting angry and upset, we set off the suffering of the second part. It is our thoughts that make us re-live (and keep reliving) an experience that only ever happened once. Reduction of suffering (emotional and physical) and the increase in vitality and full life potential is inherent in the yoga philosophy. A yoga routine that incorporates meditation works on increasing one’s awareness of the present as opposed to resisting or attempting to avoid uncomfortable and negative thoughts. So even though we can’t control the circumstances, we can control how we respond to them. We can choose not to get stuck in a frenzy of unnecessary negative thoughts that have a detrimental effect on our mental and physical health, and direct that energy instead into growing our awareness. When we grow the power of awareness within ourselves, the mind begins to lose its ability to make us unhappy. Realize that certain thoughts are bad for you. Become still and start observing your thoughts. Direct your attention elsewhere. Withdraw consciousness away from worry and unnecessary mindsets. Thoughts cannot survive if you take attention and consciousness (their life stream) away from them. Create space for you to breathe and feel your aliveness. Remember that you are not the narrative of your mind. You are consciousness itself, the intelligence that pervades your body and holds it together. YOGA IN THE PARK...

PAYMENT: VENMO -- @Vicyasa Paypal -- [email protected] NAMASTE, Victor Cotto www.YogaWithVictor.com Instagram: CottoVic Facebook: Yoga With Victor - Vicyasa™ “Stop trying to fix your body. It was never broken.”  In our modern world, when we say yoga, what we often mean is "asana" — the poses for the physical body.
Because of this, mainstream culture and many teachers and students have a distorted view of what yoga means. The trap of thinking of yoga pants as usually only for one type of body, needing a “yoga body” to practice as one that is skinny, toned, tanned, and super flexible. Yoga develops inner awareness by focusing our attention on our body's abilities at the present moment. It helps develop breath, and strength of both mind and body. Yoga is less focused on outward, physical appearance and more focused on teaching how to tap into the body and mind to focus on the present. The focus of your attention is inward, rather than on how the pose looks, or comparing yourself to others. In its true essence, yoga can be an integral part in promoting and developing positive body image and self-esteem. Understanding the benefits of yoga from a mind-body perspective will hopefully keep us returning to the mat, week after week and help keep a positive outlook in our lives. SUMMER IN SEPTEMBER We'll continue outdoor classes as long as the beautiful warm weather continues. Check your inboxes to enroll in our wildly fun park sessions overlooking the amazing NYC skyline.

NAMASTE, Victor Cotto www.YogaWithVictor.com Instagram: CottoVic Facebook: Yoga With Victor - Vicyasa™ “August is like the Sunday of summer.” -- unknown  As we countdown the Summer, be mindful of the cooling and calming approach of our practice, especially with the potential frenzied entrance into the September season where change can be abundant and the shift can be a drastic one.
To balance the heat-waves and energy harnessed by the summer season, aim to cultivate the opposite environment on the inside of the body — cool and calm. During this time of year, a good counter for high energy would be to create a lunar current within the body by focusing on activities and foods that are cooling. This approach will nourish your system and help increase your energy levels. Moon Salutations, Sun salutations (with walk forwards), supported backbends, legs up a wall to close practice, wide legged forward folds and floor twists all send a calming wave through the nervous system and serve the body’s attempts to self-regulate. Hint: a lil' mint essential oil sprinkled on the mat provides a exhiliating cooling effect too. IN THE COMING WEEKS... We'll have Erin Giordano, Karen Hyland and Tanya Mgrdechian back on the schedule and we'll continue to provide a full schedule of sessions and into the weekends. The staff thanks you greatly for the support. OUTDOOR CLASSES... September is usually a warm weather month and we'll continue to schedule outdoor classes on weekends.
