yogaIt’s time for some Green Energy Prosperity! Begin to acknowledge Flow within your life. Have a gracious openness and acceptance of your own personal truth. Allow yourself to let go of the things that no longer serve you and make room for all those wonderful opportunities that are waiting for you. Please join me tomorrow (Friday) at Village Green Yoga for one of my very favorite Kriya’s. Green Energy Prosperity! We’ll breath powerfully, sweat, chant, and deeply relax. If life has gotten too crazy and you’ve been away from class, now is the time to come back and connect with that flow that exisits in us all! I am not defining prosperity in terms of money. Though that is a component of it. I see prosperity as a shower of all the brilliant and exciting opportunities that come to us. That can certainly be in the form of currency (current~flow…) but it can also be the wealth of your relationships and the richness of your own life journey. Yogi Bhajan would say to us you can chase it, run all out to catch it. Completely exhaust yourself (which we all do!) or….you can be a beautiful, graceful and intuitive being and let it come to you. Prctice that Flow. This is not really a passive attitude. It’s actually quite active, but not exhausting! You still need to work hard but you also need to develope the intuition to see what is right before you and seize it!

You’ve  heard it before and you have all ignored it too.  
 
Your day is moving along splendidly.  You are getting your work done.  Nice and smooth, nice and easy, no confrontation or conflict. You come across a moment where you need to make a decision.  Everything is making sense.  Your mind checks and cross checks to be sure and you move forward with your decision, it makes good sense.  However, for a moment, you hesitate and you begin to hear your inner voice.  Damn, just when your intellect, your mind has got it all sorted out.  You don’t have time for this!  You took all the right steps, your decision is sound.  You stick with it your decision and move on with your day.  Most of the time when this happens, you will regret the decision and wished you had listened to your intuition.  You need to trust your intuition, that inner voice, your gut…whatever you call it.  It is there to serve you. It’s very real and can be a powerful tool in your everyday life.
 
Yogi Bhajan said “The greatest tool you have in your life is to listen.  Why?  If you listen you will listen sensitively.  And you will be shocked at how fast you will become intuitive.”
 
I have been practicing Kundalini Yoga for 14 years now but life still will challenge me each and everyday.  I have to remind myself: Listen closely. Pay attention.  Slow down. When I am tuned into my intuition it is pretty wonderful.  No question about it and the bonus of no lingering doubts quite sweet.
 
In the upcoming weeks I will be focusing our classes with kriyas and meditations to help you tune into your intuition.  The sixth chakra, the pituitary gland.  It’ll be good, I promise.
 
Listen up!
 
Many blessing and lots of love,

chakra1Several summers ago I attended a retreat in upper state NY with Gurmuk. Each morning we had 4 AM group Sadhana and more yoga the rest of the day. Yummy vegetarian meals and company with some very bright souls. Those of you that know Gurmuk, well lets just say she has a unique way of challenging you to do things you thought never possible loving yourself for doing it!

One early morning I saw her in running cloths, I pod in hand. (I was still recovering from the early AM yoga set!) I asked her if she was seriously going for a run. She smiled and told me she runs almost daily, getting her cardio in. Gotta do it she said.

My point is this. Your gym or home workout routine is not a replacement for a yoga practice or visa versa. Two very different things but both have there benefits. Unfortunately, many here in the West feel that in order to get people in a yoga class they need to market it as exercise and they have done that very successfully, stripping yoga of its spiritual aspect. Of course Yoga is exercise and of course we sweat and yes we stretch. However, the physical aspect of yoga is only one piece of the practice.

Yoga mean union with One. The physical part of yoga is there to prepare your body for that beautiful, expansive experience. Experiencing that oneness which exists within you. All that bending, stretching, twisting, breathing and meditation is to allow you to merge yourself with the vastness of the universe.

I highly recommend it.

Solar Eclipse

We have recentley experienced a Total Eclipse of the Sun.  It  has been called ‘the most significant of the solar eclipse of the century’ by astronomers. Astrologers believe this solar eclipse lasting over 6 and one half minutes will have influence for the next 6 and a half years.
 
A solar eclipse is Mother Nature’s most powerful editing tool. When an eclipse occurs, things are

eclipseeclipsed / eliminated. Whatever needs eclipsing comes up in the days and weeks before a solar eclipse. (Think back, you know what those thing are.) An eclipse is an opportunity to eliminate patterns of thought and behavior. This is an ideal time to clear away what stands in the way of your dreams being realized.

The Love Vibe…

head-shotJune could not have been any better weather wise.  Seems I’ve gotten a bit obsessed with the sun over the last 4 years or so…I can’t help it.
 
July started off brilliantly.  I celebrated my 50th birthday on the 3rd with an intimate groups of friends and family.  It could not have been more perfect.  My husband Robert, whose forte is not exactly throwing dinner parties did an amazing job and I love him that much more for hosting such a lovely party. 
 
I spent the evening with people I adore and love.  Each on of them have touched my life in a positive, loving way.  The next day I begin thinking about the company we keep, the routines we adopt and the words we speak. They all have a vibration attached to it.   And those vibrations can be both good and bad.  I know I’m not getting to woo woo with you, you know what I’m talking about.  You know when the vibe is good.  It’s moving through you and you’re feeling at home, easy, maybe even transformed.   I love it! We have to make the time and consciously surround ourselves with as much of that good energy and vibration that we can.   And if you are able to, dish out some of that good energy too. 
 
For those of us that are tuned in, doing our yoga and meditations…it’s right there within seconds, you know it and can feel all different vibrations, your computer,  nature, people, whatever.  It’s pretty good radar, telling you when to step into that vibe and when to walk away.  We all have it but, when you really develop it, it’s pretty cool.
 
Friday night was filled with the love vibe.   I highly recommend it!

7 Stepps to Happiness

yogaI’ve talked about happiness before, how to get there and how to sustain it. But this past weekend I truly experienced it and began to understand real happiness.

Yogi Bhajan talks simply about the 7 Steps to Happiness and I’d like to share them. The first step is Commitment. Find something you can commit to completely, without wavering. That commitment leads you to the second step, which is Character. It is your commitment that will build your character. Character guides you to step three, Dignity. I just love that word. The definition is even better: nobility or elevation of character; worthiness. Nice.

Through your dignity, step four opens to your Divinity, leading you to the fifth step, Grace. Living in a state of grace, you are blessed with a conscious mind very close to happiness that allows you to make step six, Sacrifice, a natural process. Always take care of yourself first, but be on the lookout for the good of others and how you can serve, help, sacrifice. When you sacrifice – because it’s naturally what you do – that will bring you Happiness.

I was happy when I got my shiny new car and I was happy when we went to Maui, but only for a couple days. It’s not a forever lasting happiness. Having finished my training in Portland, I was able to experience all the steps to happiness. I missed many occasions and events by traveling down to Portland one weekend a month and I was not happy about it at the time, but I held to the first step and everything fell into place from there.

So start with commitment and see where it will take you!

Much love and many blessings,
Sosie Hari Kirin

Words of Inspiration

We have to develop a consciousness that will guide us through life. Believe, as a matter of reality, that whatever is being given, is given by God and whatever we are giving; God is telling us to give. That is all. When your mental state becomes that clean, clear and crystal, that crystal will promise you the Infinite, beyond the heavens and the earth.

! Technology Update!

! Technology Update !
My Blog…. Today my son Armen shined some new light regarding the technology field and my blog.

Armen thinks we all need to become more interacvtive within our yogic community. So, this is his suggestion. For example, Yogi Bhajan words of inspiration, click on that title, it will take you directly to the blog and tell us what you think. Let’s have a discussion. So, if you look up at this title, Technology Update, click on it and it will take you to this exact post and you can let me know that you think I am crazy.

Armen says, our generation will use his generations language and technology to make life more interesting. OK, I’m willing to give it a try.

Ride that wave babe!

White Tantric YogaI wanted to share what a wonderful weekend I had in both Eugene and Portland. In Eugene I did a White Tantric course and in Portland visited with a dear friend and his beautiful family. It also hit 89 degrees over the weekend! I hadn’t felt that warm in a long time….Tantric, friends and hot sun… as they say, it’s all good.

The White Tantric course I participated in on Saturday was with 80 plus other yogis all dressed in white was the highlight. (It even trumped the weather!) White Tantric is very difficult to explain but if you ever have the opportunity, DO IT! My mind right now is so clear, my energy is infinite and I can hear my soul so clearly. I am so grateful to be able to embrace the highs and the lows in life. This weekend was both. Make no mistake, White Tantric can bring up a whole lot of crap. But I say bring it on! You can either ride that wave or let it ride you. I have done both and I can tell you that I highly recommended riding the wave and ride it with excellence!

Next Saturday I’ll be leading a mini 2 hour Prosperity Workshop. We’ll get a sense of not only riding that energetic wave but allowing it to flow through you. It is that flow that brings you all that you need. See more details about the workshop below.

Much love and many blessings,

Sosie

May we accept all of those we love and those that challenge us; for where there at this moment, with no judgement.
