  1. “[Let] go of your attachments: your attachment to being right, to having total control, or to living forever. This process of letting go is integral to the process of becoming whole.” ~ Judith Hanson Lasater

 

  1. “Be inspired but not proud.” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life

 

  1. “Yoga talks about cat-pose, dog-pose, camel-pose, monkey-pose, bird-pose etc. Why there are so many animal poses? Animals release their emotions and tensions by movements based on their body sensations. But our amygdala in the brain is carrying the “fight or flight response”; it has forgotten the art of releasing the tensions. As human beings, when we are aware about the sensations, we can release that by aware, slow movements. If you do not give movements to the body parts, energy will be stuck and blood circulation will be disturbed. Gradually, that creates chronic physical and mental health problems.” ~ Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana: An Integrated Life Style

 

  1. “Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the soul open.” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar

That's why I say 'peaceful body, peaceful mind'. And then you'll be useful. You don't have to become a useful person. You will be useful.” ~ Swami Satchidananda

 

  1. “Rather than allowing our response to an even affect our breathing, we can learn instead to let our breathing change our relationship to the event.” ~ Cyndi Lee

  1. “I understood that the attachment to myself and my image ... was actually taking me away from my self, away from this wonderful opportunity to just sit, just breathe, just feel the warm animal of my body, just feel the soft, sultry heat of June. The density of my attachment was making it impossible for me to have a truly satisfying experience of life in my body just as it was in the moment. When under the sway of this obsession, my mind's attention was always in the fantasized future, or the idealized or devalued past - never present to the reality of the moment.” ~ Stephen Cope, Yoga and the Quest for the True Self

 

  1. “Many of us ordinary folk have tasted these moments of "union" - on the ladder, in the pond, in the jungle, on the hospital bed. In the yogic view, it is in these moments that we know who we really are. We rest in our true nature and know beyond a doubt that everything is OK, and not just OK, but unutterably well. We know that there is nothing to accept and nothing to reject. Life just is as it is.” ~ Stephen Cope, Yoga and the Quest for the True Self

  1. “Plants or animals rarely behave in an unnatural manner that’s contrary to their true makeup. Human beings are also natural beings, but at the same time, we’re conscious entities. We therefore have free will and must make the choice not merely to be part of nature, but also to follow faithfully the “laws of nature.” ~ H.E. Davey, Japanese Yoga: The Way of Dynamic Meditation

 

  1. “Because all actions and expressions stem from the mind, it is vital to know the mind as well as decide in what way we’ll use it.

If we are to die in a minute, why not die happily, laughing?” ~ Sri S. Satchidananda, The Yoga Sutras

Although they go down, they aren’t completely erased. Don’t think you ever forget anything. All experiences are stored in the chittam; and, when the proper atmosphere is created, they come to the surface again. When we do something several times it forms a habit. Continue with that habit for a long time, and it becomes your character. Continue with that character and eventually, perhaps in another life, it comes up as instinct. ” ~ Sri S. Satchidananda,The Yoga Sutras

  1. “[O]ur own bodies are changing every second. Yet we take the body to be our Self; and, speaking in terms of it, we say, “I am hungry” or “I am lame”; “I am black” or “I am white.” These are all just the conditions of the body.

Satchidananda,The Yoga Sutras

Satchidananda,The Yoga Sutras

Thank you for reaching out!

I always start my day with my meditation an asana practice. This also helps to center myself and to create clarity. Further walks in nature also really help for me.
Since I write about things that I have a lot of experience with already, in general I just need a subject to write about. Starting from that perspective, I can use an intuitive writing process.

Within the writing process I take it 1 alinea at the time, being receptive to the words that want to come out. Usually the next alinea only comes through at the end of the previous alinea. Though, sometimes things keep coming up, while I know that there is a need more content in between (like a bridge, to make it understandable). In that case I just make a short note of these thought at the end of my working document and come back to them later.

I hope this helps.

First of alll I woud like to say great blog! I hhad a quick question that I'd like to
ask if you do not mind. I was curious tto find out how yyou center yourself and clear your mind
before writing. I have hadd a difficult time clearing my thoughts in ggetting
my ideas out there. I do enjoy writing however it
just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost just trying to figuree
out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints? Kudos!
