Yoga practice and the "fruit of one's actions"....

This is my first blog entry on Blogger , deep breath (diaphragmatic!) and away to go...

After 10 years Yoga practice I still can't do a good sitting forward bend (paschimottasana). It used to frustrate the heck out of me, but the important thing is it is improving ; trying to force yourself into a posture is usually a mistake.."don't be attached to the fruit of one's actions" is a wise Yoga concept. Enjoy the journey and be pleased with what unfolds over time.

The new Yoga Sports Science (TM) course is exciting , students from all over the world and me on the Western Celtic fringe, can't wait to get stuck into it in earnest.


Also, I was teaching last night in Bishopston LC,  the theme was Sun , Fire and heat in Yoga. I had to raise my voice at times as the rain was drumming on the roof . Two weeks ago fireworks erupted nearby when I was leading the relaxation at the end of a session.... there should be a special meditation to deal with Yoga irony!

Om Shanti,    Elfed
