Meditation Doesn’t Work – Here’s Why

Meditation Doesn’t Work – Here’s Why

I know….change your mind, change your heart, change your life. It’s a mantra I’ve been repeating for the past 20+ years that I’ve been teaching people to meditate. “Just meditate,” the idea goes, “and everything will be better.” But this is rarely the case. Partly because meditation alone can rarely really change you and also because it’s hard to learn to meditate in the best way on your own. Don’t give up! But also don’t be naive. There are three main things you need to keep in mind before you try the “just meditate” cure-all-miracle-drug: Most People Need More. Most people who want to make a deep change can benefit from having a meditation practice. And the practice can be a crucial tool. But…most people need to include other changes like changing what they’re doing with their physical body, or their consumption habits (food, drugs, TV, internet). Also, it helps… Read More

Don’t let your mind cock-block your heart

Don’t let your mind cock-block your heart

As you move toward living from the stance of Love, you will learn to live more from your heart and less from your mind. If you think of it in a super basic way, the Mind is a protective mechanism. It has an intrinsic drive to make the unknown known. Read that sentence again. The mind is uncomfortable with the unknown. When something is a mystery, the mind automatically goes about trying to solve the mystery. This is great when we are lost in the woods. Not so great when we are trying to lose ourselves in the beauty of the forest. This function of the mind is great when we are trying to clean out our refrigerator and determine what is edible and what needs to be thrown away. But this same mechanism can ruin the enjoyment of a wonderful meal that we have never had before. Now forgive… Read More

Rebirth into Adulthood for the Yoga World?

Rebirth into Adulthood for the Yoga World?

Last night at my regular Monday night class at Abhaya Yoga – an Anusara studio- there was a palpable feeling of change in the air. Sometimes change feels welcome, sometimes scary, sometimes refreshing, sometimes threatening. For the many people who have thrown themselves into Anusara Yoga over the past few years, the current scandal can feel downright heartbreaking. Anusara’s promise to bring spirit back into yoga – sort of a ridiculous need in the first place- has invited people to bring much more than their down-dog into their yoga practice. The “Kula” , the word used for community, has been a source of amazing love and support for people around the world. There has been such “sizzle”, such remarkable razzle-dazzle over the past few years as the Anusara scene has swelled. The big teachers are bonafide celebs now, and in just a few years the brand of Anusara Yoga has… Read More
