Yoga Asana Without Meditation?


Meditation is your intrinsic nature - it is you.  It has nothing to do with your doings; you can neither have or not have it, it simply can not be possessed, it is not a thing, it is you.

New to Meditation?  Simply find a quiet spot in a quiet space of your home.  Turn off all electronic devices.  Now, find a seated posture where you can remain for at least 5 minutes (you must remain upright, so as not to fall asleep).  Think of something (i.e. a few simple words like LET GO).  Try to make your breath consistent in both inhalation and exhalation.  Practice breathing your Mantra (i.e. LET GO); part on the inhale; part on the exhale (LET as you inhale and GO as you exhale).  Stay as long as you can.  Each time will get a little easier and you will be able to stay longer.

See you on your mat soon.
