Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga - End of Day 1

A bit of a shocker, all those long words and new information. Everyone seemed to be coping, I think I won first prize for being the most "inattentive".

All the yoga teacher trainees in the course are really cool.

I think I'm the oldest one there, but that doesn't bother me.

It was good to see all the super healthy food come out during the day. I'm pretty sure everyone doing the yoga teacher training course are vegetarians.



*  Attentive breathing can also release and remove phlegm and debris, calm and purify the nervous system and promote unrestricted air circulation.

It was a really long but good day.

Prana - Yoga Meditation Holistic Yoga

*  Full, deep breaths allow for prana (energy) rich oxygen to nourish the body’s blood, brain and muscles, whilst cleansing the subtle channels. Focused breathing can enlarge and clear the sinus cavities, which in turn cools the brain for clearer thinking, offering a refreshed, quiet mind.

Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga Teacher Training 2010

Yoga Teacher Training began this April 2010. I thought it would be interesting to keep a random record of events. See how it goes, see what we end up with after a couple years.

This is the first post for my holistic yoga teacher training blog.


*  There are a dizzying number of styles and approaches to yoga these days. Some involve resting in simple supported postures in quiet, candlelit rooms. Others push students to the edge of their physical capacity or are done to the beat of loud, rhythmic music. Some focus on physical alignment, while others offer a heart-centered approach. There is so much variety that describing them all is impossible.
