5 Reasons to Practice Yoga

As a yoga instructor and practitioner, my experience is clients generally come to yoga for 5 main reasons:

1)  Physical self-improvement

They are motivated by the prospect of toning the physical body in a gentle way. This may be an unconscious effort to appease or appeal to others or desire to meet the expectations of others.

2) Health

They are told practising yoga will bring them more energy, balance and overall well-being

3) Rehabilitation

They may have an injury and are working to regain range of motion, more mobility or stretch.

4) Personal growth

They may be on a spiritual journey, turning inward, sensing vibration, raising awareness, engaging in practices like mindfulness and meditation.  Yoga serves as a stepping stone to live life more consciously from universal principles.

5) Intuition

They come guided by something they cannot explain, a deep urge to let go of fear and inhibitions, or as a stepping stone to other things.

Decode the upheavals

Notice ongoing upheavals in our lives, the Earth and cosmos, echo an unprecedented opportunity for inner growth. As we expand consciousness, we get honest with ourselves about what is no longer working or serving us, take steps toward conscious change. Denial or repression of who we are causes misery. Keeping busy, gettting lost in addictions, is not an effective solution. We can progress from thinker to talker and doer to being. As we remember more, we recognize, dismantle patterns, activate more of our true abilities, create space for what we blocked, believed was not real or possible. We stay confused, hit rock bottom or endure rebirth. To realize we need not prove our worth, allows us to shap out of it.

At the perfect moment, we recognize we are consciousness with the potential to change matter. It dawns it is our decision how we look at the past, future or any moment. The nature of focus has power to alter perception and shift timelines. How we mentally review or describe a given event changes the vibration of an experience, reorders us at a cellular level, changes how life unfolds since then.

Such energy shifts create space in the mind for a new era of travel. Imagine moving along planes of consciousness, between realms initially seen and unseen. What may seem unreal or denied by the ego and physical senses is very real to a larger part of us or the Oversoul that orchestrates the whole thing. Imagine travelling freely without passports, without barriers or restrictions that have us buy into illusory limitations. Imagine the implications of unlimited being.

Those who are ready energetically are guided, taken to places best suited to their own vibration and potential for expansion. Staying open and receptive allows us to get excited about new possibilities that unfold beyond a purely mental journey of ideas. Being in harmony energetically is what transforms visions from a level of heresay into the energy flows of direct spontaneous experience.

As light, soul travel already occurs interdimensionally, here and now. Deja-vu offers a sample glimpse of wrinkles in timelines. We discover the experience of multidimensional being from the point we stop believing this as a mere possibility and shift into awareness of the only real option. To know and be unified with all that is is to know wholeheartedly who is in charge of reality and take full and complete responsibility for what is.

Turns out, light and technology move faster than the human mind can fathom. Imagine creating worlds faster than blinks of an eye. The imperative is to master the mind. Self-mastery changes the game. Time- space, wormholes, portals, stargates, leylines, grid realities, all begin to align out of pixelation as part of passing thru the zero point (the veil), on many layers and fractals. The big secret is. humans have mastery in our DNA. Learning to activate it is a test.

Return to Love

Notice that to love another anything is to see the face of God. As we consciously love another, recognize the mirror reflection, we love and accept ourselves fully, we see the perfection through imperfection. Anything we do not love is a teacher about love, guiding us to let go of illusions of separation between real and unreal.

In this world, we are taught to seek someone else's idea of a better life, external approval, something other than what we are, to aspire to be somewhere else with someone else, to be only selectively aware and to selectively feel, to avoid what evokes discomfort. Thoughts keep us focused on the external, create chronic dissatisfaction, prevent us from remembering what it feels like to be happy now.

Trust is about refocusing inward, releasing fear and judgement of others, ourselves as well as the unknown. As we trust, something always invites us to stretch and grow into the full spectrum of our emotions and unleash untapped potential. At a given moment, whatsoever is needed arises beyond scope of ego mind. Surrender arises from deep down, from a knowing all is well.

Happiness then, arises in the present, where truth is, where we let go of the fear something can be or go wrong. When we allow mind to wander between past and future, we get lost in depression that negative history may repeat or anticipation life canot meet our expectations and will disappoint. Only as we stay present, do the best we can with the body we have, does trust arise as a focal point of awareness and shift vibration. The same energy can be felt as fear or peace in this moment. We control a gauge of how we feel.

In essence, we get all we truly need. As needs arise, they are satisfied. That´s the beauty of trust. By and by, we learn existence goes on providing, caring, supporting our journey. We are not indifferent to existence. It does not ignore us. Trust fully and no obstacle exists that cannot be overcome. As we truly get the knack of trust, all worry disappears. This is the way to blossom into fearlessness.

Align with 12 Universal Laws

Many ancient cultures suggest true success and fulfillment relate to living according to 12 Universal Laws. Hermes (Thoth) known for ancient Egyptian Hermetics narrow this down to 7 Universal Principles.   The ancient Hawaii Ho'oponopono meditation for freedom and other cultures embody these Laws. They echo life is mastered as we align with love and joy.

Consider where they reonate or not and how they could serve to guide your life in new directions:

1. Law of Divine Oneness

• "How can I show more compassion and acceptance?"
• "What would love do?”
• "Why/How would the highest version of me respond?"

2. Law of Vibration 

• "Why are my dreams not happening or being realized?
• "How can I align my thoughts and feelings to manifets more authentically?"
• "What are effective ways to elevate my frequency/ vibration?"

3. Law of Correspondence 

•  "As above, so below. As within, so without."
• "To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven."
•  "It's happening for you, not to you. 
• "A chaotic and fearful life echoes chaos and fear within. A calm and grounded life, echoes peace within."

4. Law of Attraction

•  "Like attracts like, and you get what you focus on. 
• "Congruence or aligned beliefs are needed to obtain/ manifest what is envisaged."
• (Similar to Law of Vibes)  "Attraction is based on vibration"
• "Give love to receive love " (otherwise you send universe a message about your priorities."  
• "When we focus on what we want versus what we don't want, it will show up in our life,

5. Law of Inspired Action

• "Follow intuition/ listen to inner guidance"  
•  "Let go of control of outcomes and be open to all possibilities"
• "Where in life are we evolving/ flowing/ realizing dreams differently"

6. Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy

• "Energy is strengthened/ transmuted or depleted based on intention"
• "see the power of positive thought"
• Actively uplift negative energy/ create opposites"

7. Law of Cause and Effect

•  "effects are not always instantaneous"
• "every action will have an equal and opposite reaction" 
• "The vibration of our every action has a ripple effect- anger leads to suffering"

8. Law of Compensation

• Visualize the value of energy exchange 
• "You reap what you sow"
• "Where am I being called to serve and support others today?" 

9. Law of Relativity

• In reality, everything is neutral
• Relativism exists in all things (meaning comes down to our perspective and perception)
• Appreciate what we have without comparison

10. Law of Polarity

• Every polarity points to power of neautrality / balance
• "contrast brings more clarity " 
• "Challenges invite us to feel into a blessing, new perspective or lesson"

11. Law of Rhythm

• "Integration is just as important as growth"
•  "Cycles and flows are natural in every life area" 
• "Inner rhythms shape outer reality"
•  Feeling depleted? Rest or saying no to some things may be what is required.

12. Law of Gender

• masculine and feminine energy exists in all things. 
• Patriarchy oeprates from masculine mentality
• Authenticity is about creating balance between the divine masculine & divine feminine

Summary  

Integrating and living from these 12 Universal Laws is more about understanding and visualizing them in the context of our own lives. Apply them in a case-by-case basis and see the difference for yourself directly.

Secret of Inner Flowering

Notice the popular view is that evolution is a linear process, that humans evolved from apes, grew their brains, went from four- legged to two-legged creatures. Another view is no such evolution exists as mind understands it. The original DNA or vibrational signature echoes a different picture. In this light, we are always human beings. Evolution is a byproduct of human consciousness. This inner flowering happens as energies shift and purify. Inner journeys may be guided or stages may occur spontaneously. The will, deep trust and surrender guide evolution of consciousness. Humans evolve yet evolution happens. At each step, one finds oneself more blissful, peaceful, silent, even bubbling with joy. One is intuitively drawn to create ways to experience and share more joy. At the ultimate peak, only pure bliss exists. It is within reach of all. We are each responsible for the nature and pace of our own journey.
