Let go. Feel peace

-


 Do everything with a mind that lets go. 

Do not expect any praise or reward

If you let go a little, you experience a little peace. 

If you let go a lot, you experience a lot of peace. 

If you let go completely, you will know complete peace and freedom

Your struggle with the world will have come to an end."

~ Ajahn Chah

  For new students!  or those who haven't been to yoga for awhile: Spring is a time of new possibilities.  If  you've been looking for a way to re-connect with your body in a meaningful way..... if you have a new commitment to creating better health for yourself, ... sign up for this yoga class.  For those who are more youthfull, athletic  or advanced, I will offer more challenging poses.  For those who are feeling stiff and less confident, (beginners), I will introduce you to some of the basic poses as well as the breathing that we do .  Please sign up by contacting me via email:  blaineyoga@gmail.com.  I will ask you to pay $10 in advance so that I know for sure that we will have enough people for a class.  I look forward to meeting you! I used to wonder about the Bunnies and Eggs theme of Easter.  I mean, how do Bunnies and Eggs (and candy) relate to Christ?    In pagan times, before Christ, and before Easter was a holiday, the people celebrated the nicer weather of Spring t

Mental health

 Im so glad to see mental health being addressed more openly. As part of my job as a substitute, I had to take a course about bullying.  This was hard as it brought up the feelings I have about being bullied by my brother.  Self esteem issues  tag along thru my life as a result.  I would like to teach yoga in the schools as a way to combat bullying.  I feel, in general, that in our American society, those who are quiet and kind are deemed as weak and tend to get "picked on". When my brother asserted his power over me, my parents would say, " you two work it out". That gave him a license to continue because his strength and meanness was no match for me. Parents believe that this is a natural part of growing up and call it sibling rivalry, but there is also sibling abuse and that should not be allowed.  This is from the course I took: Vector Training, K-12  Final Assessment Bullying: Recognition and Response: Quiz question 10 of 10: Which of the following best describ

Spring is in the air...(sometimes).   It was a nice sunny day.  I even got to cross country ski at Turtle Lake Park. The wind did make it a bit nippy tho, so I only went around the park one and 1/2 times.. Didn't make it onto the lake as I had planned. A new session of two months  will begin starting the first week of March.  It will run through the end of April for a total of 9 weeks.  You don't have to sign up for the entire session, we feel it is the way to feel the most successful in this practice at our studio.  It helps to create the sense of community that we appreciate so much during these times of political turmoil and confusion. Hiyala's class:  Tues am 9:30-10:45. Ruth teaches Thursdays "Chair Yoga" 5-6pm and "Body Flow" from 6:15-7:30pm. Hiyala also teaches a mat pilates class on Thursdays from 10-11am. To sign up, just email me and let me know your intentions.  I'll help you determine the rate you need to pay, and it'
