Sunday Yoga

Hello All! 

For those of you who did not know-I have been teaching Kundalini Yoga for the last couple of years. I spent the years of the Pandemic studying with Yogamu organization located in India, and I fell in love with my Instructors Nikolai & Deepok, their sweet Souls and their integrity & love for Yoga. I still study with them currently, taking my Yoga practice & teachings to a higher level than I thought I could. I am grateful that the Angels made this possible for me, although I was a bit shocked when the Intention that I set for bringing Yoga into my healing center manifested as me being the Instructor! It has been an honor to witness my fellow Yogis grow confidence in their Kriyas, Pranayama, Mudras & Chanting. There are no fast movements (except Breath of Fire) in Kundalini Kriyas, and it based on the original Yoga, which is Hatha Yoga, combined with Breathwork, hand positions known as Mudras and beautiful Chanting.  I feel the need to write about this due to the recent controversy regarding Kundalini Yoga & Yogi Bhajan, which since I was not involved in his teachings, I do not know the real truths & will not judge or assume anything about it. Instead, I pray for those who went through his program and were highly affected by it-both positively and negatively. I can only hope that they still have a love for Yoga and can heal from any wrongdoings that occurred.  Although his own style of Kundalini Yoga is much different from the original brought forward by Swami Vivekananda, it does have benefits as well. If you practice Kriyas from Yogi Bhajan Instructors, I ask that you dig deep before you dump your practice-if it has made a positive shift in your life & you remain unaffected by it all, keep going. There are also some great Instructors on YouTube that have integrated his Kriyas into their work-Brett Larkin, Allie Von Fossen to name a couple of them! 

Namaste-Jess

Blessed Fall Equinox

Blessed Fall Equinox, which has many beautiful names, arrives 9/22 approx 5:43am Pst., bringing a day balanced with equal parts of light & dark (day and night). A time to harvest with gratitude what has manifested, and reflect back what has occurred this year thus far. A time of abundance before the nites get longer, deeper into Shadow season, hibernation throughout the Winter months. Note what is occurring in Nature, the Animal & Plant kingdoms-we can flow along with Mother Earth, the surrounding Nature we live in. Our Cycles may begin to integrate, creating a more beneficial physical flow due to that energetic flow & connection with Mother Earth. Fall Equinox is the gateway into the next season, just as with Winter Solstice. What are you grateful for, what hasn't manifested & has no growth, what do you not want to take into the next season with you-feel the balance of day & nite with Equinox. Sleep patterns change, with more restful sleep & luscious naps, we can become more grounded due to our circadian rhythm balancing more and more towards the end of the year. Celebrate the longest day tomorrow, feel the Sun's prana flow over you, head to toe, eat the late berries, they seem sturdier, not as sweet-but we don't know if we will have fresh during the winter, so we still enjoy them! I love to cut flowers from my garden before I contemplate on when I will make changes for the winter-it is the perfect time to step into that frequency. I wish you a wonderful Fall Equinox & blessings of gratitude for co creating a higher frequency for All.

From Chaos to Compassion

I had such a beautiful day today-taught Yoga, went to Trader Joe's, hung out at home, made jewelry, and then swam with Margarito & Pio. I needed that after the assassination attempt, holding space for whatever else was coming. I needed to clear myself in Yoga, which was really cool, then eat a veggie lunch, then float in the pool with my family-I am centered and present now. (and of course, listening my my Guides babble all day.) Many of us have lived long enough to remember Reagan, Martin Luther King Jr. and Kennedy (my parents never spoke of those 2 assassinations)-and the energy afterwards is different than any other frequencies. I know you feel it too. Months ago, friends started asking me what messages I was getting surrounding this Election Year, and it has been interesting because although every time my Guides check in with me they give me a stronger frequency building up to yesterday, they had to be vague due to Free Will, and they would give me the frequencies to feel and then speak of how one aspect always affects another, even stronger within communities/institutions-the same thing as is happening in our Political Arena. It has come to a boiling point and spilled over, burning people. There is much rhetoric on FB & CNN, but what is of most importance right now is to process through whatever emotions come up for you. When I felt that swell of lower emotions/shadow, come up and almost knock me over-I did not like that. I was not surprised at my reaction, I was surprised how shitty it made me feel, and how happy it made my Shadow Self feel in a somewhat vicious manner-the vengeful part of me, I recognize her right away now, which is a blessing! Process through your emotions, either journal or call a trusted friend that you feel safe with, meaning that they don't judge you. Or, you can do a mini water bowl ceremony-large bowl of fresh water, you can pray over it, sage it, Reiki it, bless it in your own way with the intention that the water will receive your breath. Then you can bring to mind any lower emotions, and blow them into the water, releasing them. Flush the water down the toilet and clean & sage the bowl. We are all connected, so when something like this happens there is a ripple effect, perhaps world wide, and we can be knocked out of entropy. Even to the point of our polarities being flipped, which makes it even easier for our Shadow Self to demand attention. People died, a Presidential Candidate was grazed by a bullet, Veterans in the crowd were triggered-that wave spilled over and is still spreading. Thus the importance of becoming centered if you are feeling the effects of yesterday-you can assist in the transmuting of those lower frequencies, even if only around you, it will have a ripple effect, continuing to resonate with others until it feels the need to stop. Think of it as reversing all of the chaos that our Society has been in the past 8 years. It boiled over, and you can also see it in other circumstances as well-the Colombia/Argentina game, the weather, Saturn & the lessons therewithin. It's all based on frequencies and the rise and fall of them. We are emotional creatures and it's like being on a roller coaster ride at times with the waves of chaos. I see chaos as a combination of all of our lower emotions, the totality of the Shadow Self, ourself. This combination builds and ruminates until it explodes into the calm after chaos (as we process through), and the calm is where compassion lies, allowing ourself to remember the connection to All and what it takes in order to stay in that beneficial frequency. That is our role as Spiritual People-to either hold space or transmute chaos since our frequency can be raised, as well as cleared with the tools we have or what we know to do. Compassion, I have compassion for Biden & Trump, they are in a horrible situation and I pray for the best outcome and the willingness to continue to be open for the highest good.
