I love the practice. My teachers were a huge inspiration. When Rosario, my husband, and I moved to our final house in 2016, I was faced with the prospect of what to do with the rest of my life. My children are all on their own, and now it was my turn to do something for me, something that fulfilled me and nourished my soul. One day I was half-heartedly searching online for a local YTT program, just to gather information. And there it was, on the Yoga Alliance website, The Yoga Sanctuary was offering YTT beginning in December. And it was only being offered every other year! Now is my chance, I thought, though I didn’t decide immediately. Committing to YTT would lead me out of my comfort zone. Was I ready? Could I actually see myself teaching? I toyed with the idea, talked with loved ones, meditated on it. At the end of it all I knew that if I didn’t take this chance I would regret it. Now is my time.\r\n\r\nTYS: Has being in the program changed your yoga practice in any way?\r\n\r\nWS: My practice has opened and deepened.  Prior to YTT, I had a difficult time with meditation. I feel that actually learning the practice of meditation helped to break through my barriers. Sitting in stillness comes easily and, if I do say so, quite naturally to me now. My asana practiced has mellowed in a wonderful way. “Power” vinyasa used to be my go-to practice; learning from the ground up to build upon basic poses has caused me to slow it down, dial back the intensity. And that feels really good!\r\n\r\nTYS: What has been the most rewarding part of the program so far?\r\n\r\nWS: Falling deeper and deeper into the study of yoga has validated that this is where I’m supposed to be, right here, right now. My classmates— being on this journey with those who are like minded has created a bond very much like family for me. They’ve helped me, held me, supported me and I’ll be forever grateful for their presence in my life.\r\n\r\nTYS: What has been the most challenging part of the program so far?\r\n\r\nWS: The program is intense. Practicing yoga at home or in a class is one thing, learning all that is involved in the practice of yoga is an entirely different entity. It’s been a humbling experience.\r\n\r\nTYS: Where do you see yourself taking now that the program is complete?\r\n\r\nWS: I love this question. One question on the YTT application was if teaching yoga is the primary aim of my taking the program or was it to simply deepen my practice and knowledge. At the time, it was unclear to me where YTT would lead, so my response was that I felt the answer to the question would present itself upon completion of the course.  And it did. I want to teach. I want to share the art of the practice that I love so dearly. I’m 100% confident that teaching yoga is what I want to do with the rest of my life.\r\n\r\nTYS: Do you have any suggestions for someone that is considering a yoga teacher training program?\r\n\r\nWS: If your practice is a passion and you love to learn, do this. Be open minded and committed. Prepare yourself for a journey that, if you let it, has the power to change your life.\r\n\r\nRead about Wendy’s full path below….\r\n<h1>Yogi of the Month—Wendy Salafia</h1>\r\nI became a mom at 17, and the next 25-plus years were happily devoted to raising four human beings that, thankfully, turned out rather well. And after almost 30 years, my husband is more than ever my best friend. I am now known as “Nonni” to two grandchildren who I adore beyond all reason. Two years ago, my husband and I moved to Florida. Now it’s our turn to devote our lives to us.\r\n\r\nI took my first yoga class over ten years ago just to try it out. I didn’t fall in love. About three years later, I tried it again. That time it felt right, so I continued. Now I practice every day—not only asana but also meditation and observance of the yamas and niyamas.\r\n\r\nPhysically, sciatica used to be a challenge for me, and so was my inability to “be still.” I no longer struggle with sciatica, and I have learned to be comfortable and content in stillness all due to my yoga practice. Yoga tunes up and tones my physical body as well as my mental and emotional body. My body feels stronger and more supple from asana. And mentally/emotionally, yoga has taught me to be more present, compassionate, and forgiving of myself and others. It’s taught me the importance of letting go and accepting things that are not in my power to control.\r\n\r\nTrikonasana, or Triangle Pose, is my favorite yoga posture. The very first time I was brought into this pose and my teacher aligned my body in proper form, it just felt <em>so</em> good. As it strengthens and opens my body, it also calms my mind.\r\n\r\nI feel as though yoga never really leaves me. When I’m not doing asana, I’m living the yamas and niyamas to the best of my ability. Yoga is not an activity that has its place in my life. Yoga <em>is</em> my life.\r\n\r\nOutside of The Yoga Sanctuary, I volunteer at the local branch of the library, which is something that I <em>love</em> doing. I love books, and I love to read. Being loose in a library is akin to being a kid let loose in a candy store. All of those books and stories—knowledge—right at my fingertips!\r\n\r\nFavorite quote: “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, “Wow!

Yoga therapy does not take the place of medical treatments. In fact, the yoga therapy approach provides tools that a student can use in concert with other approaches they are taking to treat their health conditions. Yoga therapists take into consideration the medical history of each student and any contraindications that may be a result of their unique history.\r\n\r\nIn this way yoga therapy meets individuals where they are with the intention to reduce suffering. The yoga sutras tell us suffering is always based on <em>Avidya</em> or ignorance, which is a lack of awareness resulting in separation from our true Self or true nature. Ignorance, or this separation from our true Self, is the root of all other obstacles that limit us from feeling our true nature of peace and joy. Wellbeing can be experienced through moving away from <em>Avidya</em> to <em>Vidya</em> or clarity. The yoga therapist is trained to help guide students toward <em>Vidya</em> through self-awareness, self-discovery and self-realization. Through increasing self-observation skills students become more and more self-aware through which suffering is reduced, and the experience of joy and peace naturally increases.\r\n\r\nThe tools that yoga therapists share with students are based on treating individuals at all levels of their being. The physical asana practice can be used to reduce suffering in the body by bringing awareness to imbalances in the skeletal, muscular and other systems of the body. Pranayama, mudras, mantras and work with chakras can bring awareness to imbalances or blockages in the flow of energy through the body. Awareness of and healing of patterns of the mind and spirit are developed through meditative practices, affirmations and other tools of self-reflection.\r\n\r\nThe yoga therapy tools can not be applied like a prescription for a specific health condition. The yoga therapist can guide individuals or groups of individuals in the use of tools to reduce suffering. The healing, however, will take place through a student’s commitment to developing self-awareness, identifying the tools that work for them, and using those tools and a commitment to practice to come back into unity with their true-Self and true nature.\r\n\r\nYoga Therapy is currently a self-regulated field of professional practice. The International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) developed the <em>Educational Standards for the Training of Yoga Therapists</em> in 2012. In 2014 IAYT began accrediting Yoga Therapy Schools based on their ability to meet the educational standards. Yoga therapists that have either demonstrated competency through a grandfathering process, or who have completed training through an accredited school receive the C-IAYT certification.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href="https://www.jboswellyoga.com/">Jaime Boswell</a> is currently studying yoga therapy in the Kripalu School of Integrative Yoga Therapy, an accredited 800-hour program of study. As part of the certification process Jaime is working on a practicum under the guidance of a certified yoga therapist, and anticipates completing her studies in 2018.

When he moved to Punta Gorda, he obtained a degree in culinary arts and worked as a chef catering with Dean of Dean\'s South of the Border, first at Edison College and then Hurricane Charley\'s.\r\n\r\nEdie is retired from teaching grades from preschool to college. Her teaching position here in Punta Gorda was at Edison College (now Florida SouthWestern State College) in the mathematics department from 1990 to 2005.\r\n\r\nTogether they have two sons, ages 30 and 24.\r\n\r\nGlenn began yoga in the nineties here in Punta Gorda. Edie began yoga in the late seventies in Atlanta. Both have since continued their practice off and on. They both were privileged to do yoga at what is now the YMCA where Bonnie, the former studio owner, began teaching. They we were fortunate to be there when she arrived and followed her to the Yoga Sanctuary.\r\n\r\nEdie began her yoga practice to enhance her life spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Glenn followed suit. Edie practices at least five times per week, including a home practice. Glenn practices when possible. They both practice Gentle Yoga. Edie loves the Meditation/Restorative classes. Glenn would like to attend Level I classes too, as Edie would when her body allows. They are also interested in the Tai Chi class.\r\n\r\nGlenn had joint issues, particularly in his knees. Gaining core strength and greater flexibility has helped his conditions. Edie had neck, back, and hip issues. Along with L4 back surgery and stem cell treatments, her yoga practice has greatly improved her muscle tightness and joint strain.\r\n\r\nThe greatest benefits of practicing yoga for both Glenn and Edie include learning the tools for ultimate relaxation and breathing, and social experiences with healthy-minded people. Glenn and Edie say their yoga practice has made their lives so much better and propelled their health in a positive direction. They say it sweetens the good parts of life while offering them the tools necessary to create opportunity and learning in the difficult times. Emotionally, yoga continues to help relieve the anxiety they seem to awaken to with every day at this pivotal time in history.\r\n\r\nAs they continue to age they know that so too will their physical challenges. And they know their yoga practice will continually evolve to assist them.\r\n\r\nGlenn continues to "chef" as well as work on his classic car collection and home renovations. His most important and enjoyable pastime is helping his sons with renovating their real estate properties. He also enjoys biking and walking. Although retired from formal teaching, Edie finds a continual supply of individuals who need assistance mathematically, and she also tends to other side businesses.

When he moved to Punta Gorda, he obtained a degree in culinary arts and worked as a chef catering with Dean of Dean\'s South of the Border, first at Edison College and then Hurricane Charley\'s.\r\n\r\nEdie is retired from teaching grades from preschool to college. Her teaching position here in Punta Gorda was at Edison College (now Florida SouthWestern State College) in the mathematics department from 1990 to 2005.\r\n\r\nTogether they have two sons, ages 30 and 24.\r\n\r\nGlenn began yoga in the nineties here in Punta Gorda. Edie began yoga in the late seventies in Atlanta. Both have since continued their practice off and on. They both were privileged to do yoga at what is now the YMCA where Bonnie, the former studio owner, began teaching. They we were fortunate to be there when she arrived and followed her to the Yoga Sanctuary.\r\n\r\nEdie began her yoga practice to enhance her life spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Glenn followed suit. Edie practices at least five times per week, including a home practice. Glenn practices when possible. They both practice Gentle Yoga. Edie loves the Meditation/Restorative classes. Glenn would like to attend Level I classes too, as Edie would when her body allows. They are also interested in the Tai Chi class.\r\n\r\nGlenn had joint issues, particularly in his knees. Gaining core strength and greater flexibility has helped his conditions. Edie had neck, back, and hip issues. Along with L4 back surgery and stem cell treatments, her yoga practice has greatly improved her muscle tightness and joint strain.\r\n\r\nThe greatest benefits of practicing yoga for both Glenn and Edie include learning the tools for ultimate relaxation and breathing, and social experiences with healthy-minded people. Glenn and Edie say their yoga practice has made their lives so much better and propelled their health in a positive direction. They say it sweetens the good parts of life while offering them the tools necessary to create opportunity and learning in the difficult times. Emotionally, yoga continues to help relieve the anxiety they seem to awaken to with every day at this pivotal time in history.\r\n\r\nAs they continue to age they know that so too will their physical challenges. And they know their yoga practice will continually evolve to assist them.\r\n\r\nGlenn continues to "chef" as well as work on his classic car collection and home renovations. His most important and enjoyable pastime is helping his sons with renovating their real estate properties. He also enjoys biking and walking. Although retired from formal teaching, Edie finds a continual supply of individuals who need assistance mathematically, and she also tends to other side businesses. She is an avid reader and also continues studying energy work through Donna Eden as well as meditation through Shambala.\r\n\r\nGlenn\'s favorite pose is the sun salutation for all the integrated benefits it provides as well as its centering and balance benefits.

Vedic Astrology, <em>Jyotish</em> in Sanskrit, divides the 360 degree sky into 27 stellar constellations known as Lunar Mansions or <em>Nakshatras</em>. The <em>Nakshatras</em> begin at 0 degrees Aries and end at 30 degrees Pisces. The precise 27 equal sections of the sky, each 13 degrees 20 minutes, are further divided into 4 <em>padas</em> or feet. Simple math skills (27x4) reveal the familiar and sacred 108.\r\n\r\nAccording to Jyotish, sister science to Yoga and Ayurveda, the sattvic Moon (Chandra) is the incarnation of the <em>Jiva Atman</em> or individual heart/mind in each of us. It is the fastest moving and most changeable of the planets from our vantage point on Earth. Chandra, which governs receptivity, nurturance and emotion, expresses in a different stage via a 27/28 day cycle from new moon to next new moon. This means that every day the Moon moves into a different area of the sky, or <em>Nakshatra</em>, seen from our point of view. A complete cycle through the 27 Lunar Mansions occurs very nearly once a month.\r\n\r\nThe ancient astrology texts explain each<em> Nakshatra</em> as an energy field having an associated Vedic deity, ruling planet, symbol, spiritual lesson and transcendent energy that affect the Moon, and therefore our mind, in everyday life. Knowledge of which<em> Nakshatra</em> the moon occupies daily can be of enormous assistance. As an example, the tenth <em>Nakshatra</em> called <em>Magha</em>, "the mighty one", exists from zero to 13 degrees of Leo. It is associated with the <em>Pitris</em> (divine ancestors), is ruled by <em>Ketu</em> (the south lunar node), is the seat of power symbolized by the throne. When the moon passes through <em>Magha,</em> activities that require personal vision, integrity and authority are supported. This recognition of good times to start or stop planned activities is called <em>Muhurta</em> in Sanskrit and can and should be employed by anyone with basic understanding of the Vedic sky.\r\n\r\nThe Yoga Sanctuary offers on-going and in-depth workshops to explore these astrological concepts and how to apply them in one\'s life.

Worship of the Goddesses <em>Durga</em>, <em>Lakshmi</em> and <em>Saraswati</em> occur for three nights each. Prayers are performed, offerings are made and mantras are recited to honor and invoke the blessings of the Divine Mother.\r\n\r\nThe first three nights are devoted to <em>Durga</em>, which means "invincible" in Sanskrit. In Vedic energetics, <em>Durga</em> presides over the <a href="http://theyogasanctuary.biz/the-three-gunas-tamas-rajas-and-sattva/">tamasic</a> realm and annihilation. She is depicted fearlessly riding a lion and carrying weapons in her many hands. Her job is to destroy the darkness, ignorance and weakness that interferes with spiritual growth. She is responsible for the first step of the spiritual journey to remove fear, pain, suffering and confusion. The simplest mantra for <em>Durga</em> is: "Om Dum Durgayei Namaha."\r\n\r\nFor the next three nights Goddess <em>Lakshmi</em> is honored. <em>Lakshmi</em> means "goal" in Sanskrit and she governs the <a href="http://theyogasanctuary.biz/the-three-gunas-tamas-rajas-and-sattva/">rajasic</a> realm which allows for the enjoyment of worldly life.

She oversees learning, knowledge, and the Arts for those who have been prepared. Only when we have passed through the first two stages can we be ready to access <em>Saraswati\'s</em> blessings and, as a result, use acquired knowledge and higher consciousness for the welfare of all. Her mantra is "Om Shri Saraswatiya Namaha."\r\n\r\nOn the following tenth auspicious day of revival of the feminine aspect of God, devotees recommit to their worldly duties and vocations and to their <a href="http://theyogasanctuary.biz/sadhana-by-gwen-burdick/">sadhana</a>.

The practice of Hatha Yoga brings about steady posture, health, and lightness of the body, dealing with the physical aspects of the body. Hatha Yoga is the most familiar yoga practice in the West. It is described in the classical text <em>Hatha Yoga Pradipika</em>, written by Svatmarama in the 15<sup>th</sup> century CE. The text describes asanas (postures), purifying practices, mudras (finger and hand positions), bandhas (energetic locks), and pranayama (breathing practices). Today, Hatha Yoga is considered a combination of four things: asana, pranayama, meditation, and relaxation.\r\n\r\nThe practice of yoga often begins with Hatha Yoga because the body can be a great obstacle on the path to attaining peace of mind and ultimate realization of our true nature (<a href="http://www.theyogasanctuary.biz/samadhi">samadhi</a>)—that we are all one. Hatha Yoga heals and opens the body and cleanses the nervous system so that the higher limbs of yoga—<a href="http://www.theyogasanctuary.biz/pratyahara">withdrawal of senses</a>, <a href="http://www.theyogasanctuary.biz/dharana">concentration</a>, and <a href="http://www.theyogasanctuary.biz/dharana">meditation</a>—occur without effort. For many, Hatha Yoga is the foundation upon which the yoga practice is built.\r\n\r\nThe word <em>hatha</em> means, literally, sun (<em>ha</em>) and moon (<em>tha</em>). It is the balance of opposing energies—positive and negative, soft and hard, cold and hot, receiving and giving, female and male. Asana and the accompanying pranayama make up the Hatha Yoga practice, helping to balance and unite these opposite energies within us. Hatha Yoga practice is not about attaining a perfect posture but, rather, is about finding steadiness and ease (sthira and sukha) while in the posture. This is achieved using correct breath, bandhas, and gaze (dristhi).\r\n\r\nHatha Yoga is an umbrella term under which all the different styles of yoga as we know them (hot yoga, ashtanga yoga, hatha yoga, restorative yoga, etc.) are found. All of these styles of yoga incorporate asana and pranayama into the practice in different ways, hence the different styles.', 'Hatha Yoga', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '3282-autosave-v1', '', '', '2017-09-02 16:00:17', '2017-09-02 20:00:17', '', 3282, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/3282-autosave-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

It should not be the central focus of life. Proper expression of pleasure of the senses occurs when it is in harmony with the mind and spirit. The goal is to satisfy our desires and be freed from them, rather than to become increasingly snarled up in indulgence.\r\n\r\nThe Noble Truths, however, state that desire is the cause of all suffering. We can evaluate which desires cause pain and why, after which we can attempt to use the strong force of desire productively. With the help of contemplation and skillful action, we watch our desires evolve into something that supports dharma, artha and our spiritual practice in general. As we transform, so do our desires. We become capable of seeing the beauty and joy in everything, even hardship. Eventually we mature and wish to be of service to others.\r\n\r\nAccording to Vedic Astrology, three houses correspond to Kama. The third house of ego and personal interests shows where self-will grows into skillful action. The seventh house of relationships with others demonstrates how codependency evolves into cooperation. Finally, the eleventh house of gains indicates how blind ambition becomes service to others. Influences on these houses in an individual birth chart reveal how much self-created misery we might experience before we bring awareness to it.\r\n\r\nNext time we will consider the final aim, Moksha.', 'The Four Purusharthas: Kama', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '5927-revision-v1', '', '', '2018-05-04 12:38:19', '2018-05-04 16:38:19', '', 5927, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/5927-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

The discipline we now broadly call Yoga was revealed to the Rishis (the pure Seers who could perceive Reality) 5000 years ago during Vedic times. The word Vedic, in fact, means "body of knowledge" in Sanskrit, the oldest language. If we wish to embrace the ancient practices to uplift our lives in this antiseptic and chaotic modern day, we would do well to familiarize ourselves with the culture from which they come. Do we need to chart a new path or borrow from the proven wisdom tradition of the past? To answer this question let us ponder the Vedic world view.\r\n\r\nIn the Vedic framework, science and philosophy are linked together, not at odds with one another. Mankind is unified with Nature, which is explained in metaphors and is known to be circular. Nature is relied upon, not controlled. The Divine is understood as the receptive feminine, shown in many forms, and intuition is honored. Time is fathomed by virtue of the precise movements of the planets in our solar system. Community is essential and actions are taken only if they support the greater good of all. As such, women are protected and the elderly are regarded. Over-indulgence is considered a crime against wisdom. Most importantly, from the Vedic point of view, the real enemy to vanquish is fear.\r\n\r\nThe modern world view finds allegiance with the individual and with profit. The results have been the creation of nearly unsolvable global problems. Many of us wonder what we can do to be part of a solution.

Specifically, they are defined as Dharma (duty), Artha (wealth), Kama (desire), and Moksha (liberation). If we are interested in spiritual evolution, they are guidelines to comport ourselves properly. Let us first examine the concept of Dharma or responsibility, the most difficult to understand in our current Western society.\r\n\r\nThe role we play in our families and society and the right conduct that follows is what is known as the dharmic path. Dharma is what we must do; the inner compass guides us. Duties and responsibilities that come with parenting, guardianship, teaching, providing or caregiving are examples and they change as life progresses. In the Gita, Krishna counsels reluctant Arjuna and reminds him that he is a warrior and, therefore, must fight. "It is better to do one\'s own duty, although imperfectly than another\'s duty perfectly," Krishna explains.\r\n\r\nAccording to Vedic Astrology, three houses, or bhavas in Sanskrit, are considered dharmic. They are the first house of the physical body, the fifth house of children, the ninth house of Guru. Influences on these houses are telling. A capable astrologer looking at an accurate birth chart can and will offer guidance to an individual who might be perplexed with the role he is to play at any point in life. Living without making one\'s own authentic contribution can make life appear pointless, and multifarious problems will arise. Consideration of the Purusharthas, therefore, becomes an important part of sadhana or spiritual practice. How much of an impact are you willing to make and how much of the collective burden can you shoulder?\r\nThe next aim, Artha, will be examined next month.', 'The Four Purusharthas: Dharma', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '5874-revision-v1', '', '', '2018-03-05 17:02:55', '2018-03-05 22:02:55', '', 5874, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/5874-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

I arrived in Florida following retirement from a career in Michigan where I had earned a PhD at Michigan State University. Several years were spent working at Lansing Community College, where I met and married my husband, Chuck Bettinson. I went on to work for the Department of Education, State of Michigan. There I was involved in developing, implementing and then directing a number of different programs with state wide scope, responsibility and high visibility.\r\n\r\nChuck and I have a son, Tim Bettinson. Tim, and Margo Schwarberg, own and operate an independent restaurant in the suburbs of Cincinnati. Both have had long careers in the restaurant business.\r\n\r\nTwo of my proudest undertakings have been sharing my life with the Bettinsons and my educational attainment.\r\n\r\n<strong><em>TYS: </em></strong>When and why did you first start yoga?\r\n\r\n<strong><em>DS: </em></strong>Yoga for me began 5 years ago at our very own Yoga Sanctuary. At the end of a lengthy rehabilitation period following major back surgery that fused the last two vertebrae of my lumbar region, the therapist suggested I try some form of exercise that would be a bit kinder to my body. At that time, I was willing to try anything. I had already had a hip replacement and was faced with giving up many of the activities that I loved – long walks, running, working with my performance dogs and competing with my dogs in canine agility.\r\n\r\nI attended a Yoga Sanctuary Open House, bought a mat and a strap and signed up! Margit helped me through my orientation session. I even wrote down all the props I would need for my first gentle yoga class. I wasn’t certain I would remember them and Margit had shown me how to use them safely.\r\n\r\nSince that time every class, every instructor, every gentle correction has been a positive and life changing experience.\r\n\r\n<strong><em>TYS: </em></strong>What are the greatest benefits of practicing yoga?\r\n\r\n<strong><em>DS: </em></strong>I love my yoga practice for many reasons. I’ve strengthened my spine, back and leg muscles and my balance has improved. I learn something about myself and my body with every session. I have learned to quiet my mind and be still. I have learned what it means to be present even though I still find it a challenge to achieve. Yoga has helped me strive to be a better person. My life is much richer as a result of yoga.\r\n\r\n<strong><em>TYS: </em></strong>What is your favorite yoga pose and why?\r\n\r\n<strong><em>DS: </em></strong>Downward facing dog is my favorite yoga pose as it stretches my back and my hamstrings, two of my tightest areas and reminds me to re-establish my breath\r\n\r\n<strong><em>TYS: </em></strong>Do you have a favorite book or quote that you would like to share?\r\n\r\n<strong><em>DS: </em></strong>Several years ago in a gentle yoga class and then later in a meditation class, Melissa taught us a mantra that I have come to use almost daily.\r\n\r\nMay I be safe,\r\n\r\nMay I be happy,\r\n\r\nMay I be healthy,\r\n\r\nMay I dwell in peace.\r\n\r\nI have added - with acceptance and understanding for all.', 'Yogi of the Month: Diane Smolen', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '5870-autosave-v1', '', '', '2018-03-05 17:05:24', '2018-03-05 22:05:24', '', 5870, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/5870-autosave-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

The study of classical texts, such as the Bhagavad Gita, Mahabrata, Ramayana, the Vedas, and the Upanishads form the basis of Jnana Yoga. It is important to understand, however, that Jnana Yoga is not just about acquiring information. It is the integration of that knowledge in a way that opens up a wider perspective that is at the heart of Jnana Yoga.\n\nJust as the breath is the thread of the physical practice of yoga, the wisdom that comes from applying knowledge is the thread of Jnana Yoga. The accumulation of knowledge is certainly a part of Jnana Yoga, but more important is to truly understand the information in a way that goes far beyond words.\n\nJnana Yoga could begin with the recitation and contemplation of verses from a yogic text. Taking the time to meditate on new information allows it to sink into the psyche in a way that can widen the students understanding not only of the passage, but of life itself. This is Jnana Yoga. It is yet one more path to understand our true nature.\n\nJnana Yoga teaches that all preconceived notions must be left behind so as to not skew our perceptions. On a practical level, by simply cultivating curiosity about the world around us and the information we come into contact with on a daily basis, we can open ourselves up to a new way of understanding ourselves. By letting go of judgment and comparison when taking in new information, we may just find that we understand ourselves on a deeper level.', 'Jnana Yoga', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '3095-autosave-v1', '', '', '2017-05-31 11:27:03', '2017-05-31 15:27:03', '', 3095, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/3095-autosave-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

The discipline we now broadly call Yoga was revealed to the Rishis (the pure Seers who could perceive Reality) 5000 years ago during Vedic times. The word Vedic, in fact, means "body of knowledge" in Sanskrit, the oldest language. If we wish to embrace the ancient practices to uplift our lives in this antiseptic and chaotic modern day, we would do well to familiarize ourselves with the culture from which they come. Do we need to chart a new path or borrow from the proven wisdom tradition of the past? To answer this question let us ponder the Vedic world view.\r\n\r\nIn the Vedic framework, science and philosophy are linked together, not at odds with one another. Mankind is unified with Nature, which is explained in metaphors and is known to be circular. Nature is relied upon, not controlled. The Divine is understood as the receptive feminine, shown in many forms, and intuition is honored. Time is fathomed by virtue of the precise movements of the planets in our solar system. Community is essential and actions are taken only if they support the greater good of all. As such, women are protected and the elderly are regarded. Over-indulgence is considered a crime against wisdom. Most importantly, from the Vedic point of view, the real enemy to vanquish is fear.\r\n\r\nThe modern world view finds allegiance with the individual and with profit.

This includes eye pillows and mats. Following Jennifer’s return on Monday, March 16<sup>th</sup> all props will be removed from the studio to be sanitized. Please bring your own mat and any other props you use in your practice.

It should not be the central focus of life. Proper expression of pleasure of the senses occurs when it is in harmony with the mind and spirit. The goal is to satisfy our desires and be freed from them, rather than to become increasingly snarled up in indulgence.\r\n\r\nThe Noble Truths, however, state that desire is the cause of all suffering. We can evaluate which desires cause pain and why, after which we can attempt to use the strong force of desire productively. With the help of contemplation and skillful action, we watch our desires evolve into something that supports dharma, artha and our spiritual practice in general. As we transform, so do our desires. We become capable of seeing the beauty and joy in everything, even hardship. Eventually we mature and wish to be of service to others.\r\n\r\nAccording to Vedic Astrology, three houses correspond to Kama. The third house of ego and personal interests shows where self-will grows into skillful action. The seventh house of relationships with others demonstrates how codependency evolves into cooperation. Finally, the eleventh house of gains indicates how blind ambition becomes service to others. Influences on these houses in an individual birth chart reveal how much self-created misery we might experience before we bring awareness to it.\r\n\r\nNext time we will consider the final aim, <a href="http://theyogasanctuary.biz/the-fourth-aim-moksha/">Moksha</a>.', 'The Four Purusharthas: Kama', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '5927-revision-v1', '', '', '2018-06-01 16:37:44', '2018-06-01 20:37:44', '', 5927, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/5927-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

Specifically, they are defined as Dharma (duty), Artha (wealth), Kama (desire), and Moksha (liberation). If we are interested in spiritual evolution, they are guidelines to comport ourselves properly. Let us first examine the concept of Dharma or responsibility, the most difficult to understand in our current Western society.\r\n\r\nThe role we play in our families and society and the right conduct that follows is what is known as the dharmic path. Dharma is what we must do; the inner compass guides us. Duties and responsibilities that come with parenting, guardianship, teaching, providing or caregiving are examples and they change as life progresses. In the Gita, Krishna counsels reluctant Arjuna and reminds him that he is a warrior and, therefore, must fight. "It is better to do one\'s own duty, although imperfectly than another\'s duty perfectly," Krishna explains.\r\n\r\nAccording to Vedic Astrology, three houses, or bhavas in Sanskrit, are considered dharmic. They are the first house of the physical body, the fifth house of children, the ninth house of Guru. Influences on these houses are telling. A capable astrologer looking at an accurate birth chart can and will offer guidance to an individual who might be perplexed with the role he is to play at any point in life. Living without making one\'s own authentic contribution can make life appear pointless, and multifarious problems will arise. Consideration of the Purusharthas, therefore, becomes an important part of sadhana or spiritual practice. How much of an impact are you willing to make and how much of the collective burden can you shoulder?\r\nThe next aim, Artha, will be examined next month.', 'The Four Purusharthas: Dharma', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '5874-revision-v1', '', '', '2018-06-01 16:41:21', '2018-06-01 20:41:21', '', 5874, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/5874-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

I’m grateful for all I have learned and continue to learn. Although I don’t teach, I did this for my own knowledge and growth. At some point I may decide to teach.

The program is exemplary, I recommend it to anyone who is in search of delving deeper into the practice of Yoga. Jennifer French is without a doubt a magnificent and honest Yogi. It was an honor to learn from her….. I am so blessed and forever grateful that my training was at TYS. I feel confident teaching students all that I have learned from my own years of practice and what I learned in TT."\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version="3.0.106" author="Lynn W." job_title="The Yoga Sanctuary Teacher Training Graduate 2013" url_new_window="off" quote_icon="on" use_background_color="on" quote_icon_background_color="#f5f5f5" background_layout="light"]\r\n\r\n“My yoga practice started in 2008 and I began taking classes and workshops at The Yoga Sanctuary in 2010. As time went on I realized I wanted to learn as much as I could from the teachers in a studio I called home. The best way for me to accomplish this was to attend teacher training at TYS, which I did in 2012/2013. It was the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I’m grateful for all I have learned and continue to learn. Although I don’t teach, I did this for my own knowledge and growth. At some point I may decide to teach. Anyone that is considering the teacher training at TYS, I could not recommend a better studio and teachers.”\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_testimonial][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]', 'Yoga Teacher Training', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '36-revision-v1', '', '', '2018-07-01 16:07:25', '2018-07-01 20:07:25', '', 36, 'http://theyogasanctuary.biz/36-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);
