A Local Mom Shares Her Experience at Soul Yoga

One of our lovely yoga students, Michelle, was gracious enough to share her experience on a local blog called Macaroni Kid. We cannot thank her enough for taking the time to share her story with others!

Michelle writes:
"As a mom, we’re so focused on the good of our children and our family unit that we sometimes push aside our own needs and completely forget that ‘mommy guilt’ has no place in taking care of our own bodies and minds. It is not selfish to honor your health. It is smart. It is necessary. And it should be a welcome practice that only gives us the energy to be super mom and super wife. And so, I wanted to give encouragement to other moms like me who might need a little nudge to get out there and do something good for yourself. A few classes at Serenity Spa & Soul Yoga might be just what you’ve needed all along."

Congratulations Challengers!

Congratulations all on completing yet another successful hot belly challenge! We will be emailing you your individual before and after pictures along with your pulse readings! Overall, there were so many positive changes that emerged as we progressed through the challenge. Almost everybody had a lot of ama cleared up, tongues started to look better and skin was glowing! Some people had some very necessary emotional releases as well as profound experiences in meditation. As we move forward, it is important to remember the main reason we underwent this transformation. We must not regress in our efforts towards a healthier mind, body and spirit.

Day 6!

This is the day that is a favorite on this Hot Belly Challenge. The organizing power of our intentions. We learned it only takes one seed to create a forest. That's what pure potential is, the ability to create without limits, to let go and to know tho shall be done. Balance the body, expand the mind and plant from the heart with love! The growth and the strength of these yogis is impressive and inspiring and just incredible. So much love and gratitude for you all.

Day 5 of the HOT BELLY CHALLENGE! 

Today's wellness is tip is the importance of setting our attention on our desires:

Meditation for manifestation

Bringing peace and happiness has never been easier with power of meditation. Setting your attention on your intentions will give rise to manifestation. The things that we are surrounded by in life are the things that are constantly in our mind. So if we are always thinking how much we hate work and how annoying our children are, then that is the intention we are putting out into the world. If we constantly worry about wealth and how much we are spending as opposed to positive visions of what we can be earning, we will stay in the same tax bracket. Whatever it is that we most desire in life, when we put our attention on it daily, the entire universe will conspire to help you achieve it.

What's your Dosha?

In Ayurveda there are three main doshas or energies that govern the physiology. Each is associated with the elements found in nature and their characteristics. And while everyone has all three doshas, your individual body constitution (prakruti) is based on the predominance of the following doshas. 

Vata is correlated with air and space and is responsible for any and all of the transportation or movement in the body. So whether it's physical movement such as walking or the brain sending signals to and from the rest of the body. 

Pitta is associated with fire and water and is responsible for any and all metabolism in the body. Now when we think of metabolism, we think of the belly. Yes pitta is responsible for digestion. However it is also responsible for the breakdown of all sensory input. The sights that we see, the music we listen to, the relationships we hold. 

And lastly, Kapha is correlated with earth and water. Kapha makes up the gross physiology. ie. muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, etc.

Today was another day of transformation. Another record attendance that topped yesterday's! Most significant is the healing from one heart to another. So many inspiring people that share in this space we have created. I am overwhelmed and I am grateful.
Today we poetically gave honor to the principle of Pure Potential and put it into action. I am a verb, I am always in action, I am awakened and experiencing. Let the beautiful lotus flower dance at your crown, and open it's beautiful petals of light.

Day 3 of the Hot Belly Challenge. Today, we dare you to stick out your tongue!

Tongue diagnosis is a procedure that has been utilized for thousands of years. The concept behind it is simple, if the opening of your digestive system is clean and clear, so is the rest of the tract. If there is heavy coating or a foul smell, what do you think lines the entire 30 feet of your intestines?!? Scraping our tongue in the morning helps us physically see the amount of gunk that is removed everyday. Through out this challenge, you should hopefully see less and less white or yellow mucus coming off your tongue in the morning and giving rise to a clean and clear pink tongue.

As we dive more in depth, we will talk about how the tongue holds a complete map of the physiology and we can predict different diseases and disorders that might arise.

Welcome to Day 2 of the Hot Belly Yoga Challenge! 

Here is today's wellness tip:

Pulse of Life

Have you heard your heartbeat lately? You have one! What is it trying to tell you? Paying attention to your pulse and heartbeat helps you understand what is going on within. Is it slow? Is it fast? Is it calm? Is it anxious? Is it easy? Or is it working overtime? There are over 20 different qualities that you can use to determine your pulse. Obviously, this goes beyond the typical beats per minute. We want to look at the characteristics of the pulse. Is it hot or cold? Dry and hard or oily and soft? Is it moving or is it localized? And many more. These give us an outlook on the physiology and we can then take measures to increase vitality through out the body!
