Ah, the Obstacles to Integration!

I often feel reassured that even the ancient yogis who had simpler lives than we do also struggled with the same human issues that we observe in our own inner worlds.

The best news: that all of the practices of yoga can help us to minimize the Obstacles and attain Samadhi (integration / peace).

I invite you to join me (Janie Ganga) for my monthly event Wisdom & Chill at Santosha Yoga – live via Zoom. This class includes:
- interpretation of the Wisdom through Patanjali, I AM Yoga (Integrative Amrit Method), & my own lived experiences
- facilitated conversation about how we might apply this Wisdom
- fully-guided I AM Yoga Nidra meditation in a comfortable reclined position

Yes! That’s really Dolly Parton doing yoga. With her Instructor Larry Payne - sometime in the early 1980s.

To honor Dolly’s famous movie “9 to 5,” the state of California declared 9/25 – aka 9 - 2 - 5 – to be Dolly Parton Day.

Here at Santosha Yoga, we’re honoring her wisdom. Every single moment is a new opportunity to roll out your mat, and start paving another road. Join us live via Zoom!

Happy Dolly Parton Day!
9-2-5 honors her iconic movie “9 to 5”! The state of California declared it a holiday and wherever you live, we’re happy that we have another reason to share more about Dolly & her wisdom!

And yes, this is really her – in California in the early 1980s with her yoga instructor Larry Payne.

“If you don’t like the road you’re walking, start paving another one.”
- aligns with the yoga perspective -
We start fresh, in each current moment.

What will you start paving?

We know, the Harvest Moon is technically on Saturday, but the energy of the Full Moon lasts at least 3 days before and after its peak brightness.

Which is why we invite you…

to join Suzanne for a fully-guided meditation – I AM Yoga Nidra – to help you re-set and plant intentions for the upcoming month while you:
Breathe,
Relax, and
Let Go.

I always enjoy recognizing how the Ancients also struggled with their minds. It’s not just us, modern folks! Even the Sages – who had stepped away from the world to sit in caves and spend their whole lives meditating – found that they were often pained by their VRITTIS (mental modifications). In good news, they found practices to avoid that pain – and passed down these tools to help us approach our own thoughts…

In the 5th Sutra of the Yoga Sutras, we’ll begin to talk about the KLESHAS (obstacles to enlightenment). Often, as we start this conversation, students will jump to the conclusion that we can achieve peace by getting rid of our thoughts (VRITTIS / mental modifications). But that’s not what the Ancients were suggesting. Rather, they teach that when we observe from a neutral perspective, we can discover the impact of our thoughts and use that wisdom to be more discerning about how we approach each of the VRITTIS we notice.

I invite you to join me (Janie GGanga) for my monthly event Wisdom & Chill at Santosha Yoga – live via Zoom. This class combines Wisdom (Sutra 1.5) and Chill (yoga nidra).

I use the Translation and Commentary of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali by Sri Swami Satchidananda as a starting point. I’ll share insights from my teachers in the I AM Yoga (Integrative Amrit Method of Yoga) tradition and my own lived experiences. And then I’ll facilitate an interactive conversation with the group about how we might apply this Sutra in everyday life.

For the second half of the class, you’ll lay down and get comfy for I AM Yoga Nidra – a fully-guided meditation.

Total relaxation that comes from deep within. Typical: take a class, feel better, return to "normal life" and go back to feeling how things were. The cycle repeats. In Meditation in Motion, you learn how to listen to what your body really needs instead of just following the teacher's set choice of exercise. Think exercises with lots of options and personal choice. You body isn't just relaxed. Your mind is, too!! It leaves you refreshed through and through. And, you learn how to stay that way as you move on with your day.

This practice helped transform my everyday life. I can't wait to reveal it to you! Link in bio for details and registration. You'll want to join.

I AM Amrit Yoga

The philosophy of the 4th Sutra meets us where we are. While the line before this has been reassuring us that we can naturally rest back in our True Nature, the 4th acknowledges – hey, sometimes it really feels like we ARE the mental modifications.

For example, when we’re feeling anxious, it feels like we ARE anxiety. We have lost touch with the unchanging Self / Seer / True Nature. When we get caught up in the mental modifications – like when we feel bombarded by anxious emotions, thoughts, and sensations – we can’t even “see” the background of our True Nature. We appear to ‘be’ anxiety.

The good news here is that again, every time we rest back and look at the whole thing, we are able to connect to the unchanging background – the Observer / Self.

I will probably use the snowglobe again to help us wrap our heads around this really deep piece of wisdom.

I invite you to join me (Janie Ganga) for my monthly event Wisdom & Chill at Santosha Yoga – live via Zoom. This class combines Wisdom (Sutra 1.4) and Chill (yoga nidra). I use the Translation and Commentary of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali by Sri Swami Satchidananda as a starting point. I’ll share insights from my teachers in the I AM Yoga (Integrative Amrit Method of Yoga) tradition and my own lived experiences.
