Pratyahara | Turn Inward
Are you seeking more balance in your life? Aren't we all? Life is not always easy but it can be less stressful, more free, and fulfilling when you find your inner peace and stillness with pratyahara, withdrawing your senses inward. It begins on your mat and allows it to radiate out into the World, into our busy chaotic beautiful world we create to bring us that the inner light within and shine bright each and every day.
Chill out and Sit!
Sit. Such a simple act yet we don't take it so literally. If we are sitting, we are usually doing another something ..eating..talking..reading.. ugh. We have been programmed to multitask (and believe me, I can be a pro at this!) But Imagine taking some time out for you to tune in and focus on your awareness of just, well, sitting. To be still, without any other distraction, and literally sit the stress away. And of course this is a great excuse to just "be" while it doesn't hurt to reap all the super awesome benefits from meditating while you're at it!
"Meditation can remove stress and replace it with a dose of inner peace. It’s one of the best tools we have to balance our emotions, deal with physical and psychological distress, and promote the peace of the present moment. But it can be tough to meditate without a teacher or guide. Meditating on your own requires some effort, while guided meditations literally walk you through a meditation and help you find a calm and peaceful state—one step at a time."
Whether you are a beginner or meditate daily, it always helps to have someone guide you along your peaceful journey with an intention...
Take some time to reflect, relax, and embrace your stillness with these guided meditations focused on healing, gratitude, letting go, and awakening….

Here are some great hip openers to let go of that, well, shit!!

Mindful Tip of the Day
Sometimes our minds can tell us things we don't want to here..like "I can't"..or "I'm not good enough"…Clear your mind of the negativity and allow for only good thoughts to filter through…Science has proven that what you want to attract is from deep within your subconscious mind. So focusing on the bad will only create more chaos and negativity. The more you remind yourself of all the good is in your life…you can make room for all the good that is about to come.
