Yogis and Jedis…Oh My! Part Two.
by Thaddeus Haas on Nov 11, 2011
In thinking about the “Dark Side” of Ashtanga, we must once again turn our attention to the theme of "what we bring with us" to the mat. By its very nature a path of transcendence is difficult, but add to this that the majority of us are burdened with an unhealthy cultural fixation and attention on the overt physical form and we are faced with a significant stumbling block; one which has the potential to turn our medicine into another form of “dis-ease.”734 views

Making Waves in Colorado: Sunday, November 13. ~ Joseph Chisholm
by elephantjournal.com on Nov 11, 2011
Although Colorado is far from the salt and sea, people from all over the planet have chosen to make this mountain state their home, and are aware of and want to become more informed about how the decisions we make can effect the oceans so far away. Consumption of all our natural resources including the snow that falls and waters carried in the rivers that swell in spring all lead to the ocean.150 views

Upon Returning Home: Giving the Gift of Yoga to Veterans.
by Lilly Bechtel on Nov 11, 2011
"Because there’s no magic pill, there’s not even a magic pose, that’s going to erase your past, that’s going to bring your friends back. But there’s definitely things that we can learn that can teach us how to cope with what we lived, what we lost. And that acceptance, to live with what I have lost, is what I have learned through a yoga practice.” -Hugo Patrocinio, ex- Marine and soon to be yoga instructor1,144 views

Let go and Live!
by Nadine McNeil on Nov 10, 2011
“Why do we latch onto people, place and things when in fact what we ought to be doing is letting them go?” While the pieces of our puzzle may seem dis-jointed as they are unfolding and our hearts are breaking and our victims and egos are engaged in their own battle of wills, we come to realize that letting go is perhaps our only and healthiest option amidst times of uncertainty.335 views

by Valerie Carruthers on Nov 10, 2011
