Eliminating all the negativity, the toxic thoughts like fear, anger, insecurity&#8230; irritations, annoyance, frustrations. Sadness.<\/p>\n<p>Last night I did a chakra clearing practice and this morning, teaching yoga.  Actually, I don&#8217;t really see it as teaching but facilitating.<br \/>\nFacilitating and mirroring the beautiful beings, those who shows up to this morning class &#8211; Mirroring their authentic beauty. Their light.<br \/>\nTheir willingness to shift out of the emotional state to find what anchors them to the present moment of effortless grace.<br \/>\nThank you for showing up and hope you began the day better by having that tapas= discipline to care for yourself before going out into the world to care for others and fight your battles. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cLAM\u201d- chakra 1 (root)<br \/>\n\u201cVAM\u201d- chakra 2 (sacral\/navel)<br \/>\n\u201cRAM\u201d- chakra 3 (solar plexus)<br \/>\n\u201cYAM\u201d- chakra 4 (heart)<br \/>\n\u201cHAM\u201d- chakra 5 (throat)<br \/>\n\u201cOM\u201d- chakra 6 (third eye\/brow)<br \/>\n\u201cOM\u201d- chakra 7 (crown)<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it&#8217;s about that &#8220;MMMMMMMMM&#8221; sounds that create the vibration to affect our vagus nerve &#8211; the ancient fore-bearers were quite wise and every culture has something rather similar.  I can recite the Japanese version &#8211;  Yoga Therapy in action.  It&#8217;s not some &#8220;woo whoo&#8221; stuff as Judith would say &#8211; it&#8217;s science.  Let&#8217;s practice this Arts &#038; Craft together through movement and breath&#8230; and then not being afraid of &#8230; stillness.  The quiet.<br \/>\nYou need to feel better after sleep deprivation of Tuesday night and the past weekend time change.  We are strong but delicate.  We are complex.  Yet sometimes, it&#8217;s the simple things. That work.<\/p>\n<p>After defogging the haze and quieting the &#8220;noise&#8221;, brighter colors and sharper lines and curves make a come back.  It&#8217;s a shift in perspective based on a  realization that we had not connected to the other side at all and that divisiveness caused a blind spot.  &#8220;clarity&#8221; is restored, then, only then, take the action.  Make changes.  Fight if you have to.  It&#8217;s not all peace and la la la, I know.  Anger and stress can bring about a positive change if not chronic, if not repressed &#8211; let it air out, if heads explode with current events. RESTORE and know We are &#8220;big-hearted&#8221;.  We go with the flow of the seasons, putting up resistance as needed. We don&#8217;t have to agree or approve or appease &#8230; but accept so that we can move on either to allow the takeover OR we can be a strategist for a change for the better. Spring will come again.  Acceptance and surrendering is a little different, I think.  <\/p>\n<p>What do you think?  <\/p>\n<p>A setback maybe but not defeated.<\/p>\n<p>Namaste \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>during this time of uncertainty and fear.
