Big thanks to all of you who attended my classes this summer at
Yoga Within!
Here are a few links to past posts I mentioned in case you'd like to delve a little deeper.
In June: We practiced a Tibetan meditation of Taking and Giving known as
Tong-Len which includes asanas and breathing to offer the six perfections or
Paramitas for the benefit of others. (Ahem.. and ourselves!)
In July: We practiced a "loving-kindness" meditation and worked with the mantra
Soham, I Am That.
And last Sunday: We practiced Sun Salutations, or Surya Namaskar. I chanted the mantras as well as their translations and the affirmation poem my Mom and I composed a few years ago. You can find it all here:
Surya Namaskar - Salutation to the Sun.
I also introduced you to japa, or repetitive chanting of mantras using a mala, or string of 108 beads. Curious about that sacred number? Check out Kali's Kitchen's
Post Number 108!
