October 09': An Invitation to Look Within
|
Dear Conscious Dreamers,
The natural cycles of the seasons are drawing us inward as we prepare for the slumber of winter. These cycles in life are known as Ritam in Sanskrit. In the larger cycle of our evolvement as human beings we are also being guided back within. To turn our attention to the fire that burns inside of us and clear that which no longer brings us life. Through this process we awaken to the truth that has always been there, but has been hidden from us by our experiences, karmic and genetic coding as well as conditioning by society to achieve outwardly and gain more and more.
The concept of enlightenment is something we often think about as outside of us, something to achieve at some point in the future. The ancient Tantric yoga texts teach us that true enlightenment comes when we step into the fullness of our Soul’s nature and live, express and source from who we were born to be. This process is not about adding anything, but peeling away the layers of false beliefs and limitations that often cloud our perceptions and keep us looking outward for answers.
As Rumi so beautifully stated, there are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground. I have found the ancient traditions of Yoga and Shamanism to be two pathways that help to uncover our icaro, our song; the gifts that we are uniquely here to bring. Both ancient traditions work to help release the subtle impressions or imprints that keep us from stepping into our true nature and connect us to the greater cosmos that guide all of creation.
I invite you to look inside at what you are holding on to that no longer serves you. To become aware of the messages that your body is always providing and start to ask yourself what ignites the fire inside of you? The answers to these questions are becoming increasingly important as we move forward at this time in our evolution as human beings.
I am excited to offer two opportunities that will help you to find these answers and clear the imprints that keep you repeating outdated patterns and old ways of being. I will again be starting a 7 week group Munay-Ki at the end of the month, and am delighted to announce Community “Sacred Play” night, which provides an opportunity for us to gather in Sacred Ceremony and work with other like minded people to shed the past and unlock our truth and passion. When we gather in Community we magnify and strengthen our intent. To learn more about either of these events please click on the box links to the right.
As always, I am also available for private consultations and am intending to offer public Bhakti Vinyasa Yoga classes to be announced soon! Bhakti yoga is the yoga of devotion to the Temple of our Body and this form of yoga also strengthens our connection to the greater cosmos - bringing us into greater balance with the Ritam of life. Please visit my website or contact me for more information.
Wishing you blessings and Peace on your Journey – Namaste, Andrea
