reprogram your mind

reprogram your mind

Where does your mind exist? Have you ever wondered? Does it live inside your brain? Where do thoughts come from?  Questions which few of us stop to ask ourselves for we are too busy being completely identified with the thinking mind, claiming every thought as our own, that we never stop to wonder... whose thoughts am I really thinking?

Temples of Light

Temples of Light

A soul-seeking journey begins with an honest, earnest seeking, knowing that the answers will be given in even the subtlest clues, guided by Spirit along the way to discovering what it is we wish to know. We may travel to the other side of the world, pilgrimage to sacred sites and great temples, seek out a cabin in the woods, or venture into the jungle to connect, but always, when we are searching for the answers to life’s biggest questions, we are ultimately, always journeying into the temple within.

yoga of the soul

yoga of the soul

Patanjali’s yoga sutras opens with “yoga citta vritti nirodha,” meaning, “unified consciousness comes with cessation of thoughts.” Yoga and meditation are inextricably linked for while the yoga prepares the body to sit in stillness, it is only through stilling the mind that the depth of Spirit may enter and manifest in this divine, personal temple.

In yoga, we unlearn more than we learn and realize that:

knowing is different that thinking,

wisdom is different than intellect,

and that power is different than force.

Vichara Yoga

Vichara Yoga

In the same way that various asana practices strengthen the body, the ancient yogic practise of vichara prepares the yogi to meet their Soul. Vichara is the practice of self-inquiry that opens the seeker up to the truth from within; of remembering who we are as an embodied Soul; it is a yoga that calls us to the shadow work necessary to burn away the karma and accumulated layers of maya in false identity, attachment and delusions of the “small self”.
