    • Yoga Meditation Visualized

    • The goal of Yoga is Yoga itself, union itself, of the little self and the True Self, a process of awakening to the preexisting union that is called Yoga. Yoga, Sankhya, Vedanta, and Tantra view the human as manifesting outward step-by-step, whereby the subtler consciousness projects evermore outward, and then gradually forgets those subtler levels. Yoga or "Union" is attained by first training, balancing, and purifying each of the aspects of our being individually, and then systematically receding attention inward through those levels, expanding so as to experience the state of Union, Yoga, Samadhi, or Turiya. Created by Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati www.SwamiJ.com

    • Sharon Gannon on Responibility

    • Stroke of Insight

    • http://community.yogajournal.com/service/displayKickPlace.kickAction?u=4266323&as=25925&b= This video was first posted on <a href="http://community.yogajournal.com/service/displayKickPlace.kickAction?u=4266323&as=25925&b=">Prana Mama's</a> blog, and I thought it was amazing. Her stroke gives her the opportunity to turn off her thinking mind.  Amazing experience and thoughts on how the brain works.

    • Creative Genius by Elizabeth Gilbert

    • Elizabeth Gilbert, author of "Eat, Pray, Love" muses on the impossible things we expect from artists and geniuses -- and shares the radical idea that, instead of the rare person "being" a genius, all of us "have" a genius. It's a funny, personal and surprisingly moving talk.  From www.ted.com

    • Who Are We - How it feels to have a stroke.

    • This is an enormously, inspirational tale of Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor's stroke. She is an incredible speaker who has an extremely powerful message. Please watch it and I thought maybe we can discuss it in the Yoga Study Group. Namaste, Sue

    • I Am An Irrepressible Optimist

    • I am an irrepressible optimist. My optimism rests on my belief in the infinite possibilities of the individual to develop non-violence. The more you develop it in your own being, the more infectious it becomes till it overwhelms your surroundings and by and by might oversweep the world. Mahatma Mohandas GandhiIn keeping with my goal of studying and trying to consciously integrate ahimsa (non-violence) into my life I have been studying the words of M.M. Gandhi. If you have time, read his brief biography at our website www.yogaheadtotoe.com and reacquaint yourself with this man and his amazing commitment to non-violence.

    • Letting Energy Flow Through Us

    • When the energy simply flows through us, just as it flows through the grass and the trees and the ravens and the bears and the moose and the ocean and the rocks, we discover that we are not solid at all. If we sit still like the mountain Gampo Lhatse in a hurricane, if we don’t protect ourselves from the trueness and the vividness and the immediacy and the lack of confirmation of simply being part of life, then we are not this separate being who has to have things turn out our way.

    • Peaceful Resolution - Accountability

    • In conflicting situations, personal accountability allows us to take responsibility for how we contribute to the conflict. Today, take responsibility for how you contribute to a conflict and make a different choice that can lead to a peaceful resolution.

    • Jiddu Krishnamurti

    • You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems, and suffer, and understand, for all that is life. Jiddu Krishnamurti

    • OPENNESS

    • Unity

    •   Differences give variety to life and are often only on the surface anyway. Today, look for three ways to see beyond outer differences in opinions, appearances, or goals. Find the meeting point of underlying unity that exists in diversity. Visit www.yogaheadtotoe.com
