Part 4/5 of a new yoga course, designed to empower you with yogic practices.

Area of focus for this practice: MIND

One aspect of personal power is the practice of directing of the mind. When it’s time to focus it, we focus. When it is time relax it, we can disengage from its wanderings. When it throws a tantrum, we practice being nonreactive. You are not your thoughts. They are but one aspect of the amazing being that is YOU.

Yoga with Matthew - Discovering Your Personal Power session #1 - AWARENESS

Part 1/5 of a new yoga course, designed to empower you with yogic practices.

Area of focus for this practice:

Developing self mastery involves practices that deepen our self awareness. This brings us out of Tamas - darkness and ignorance. Ignorance, or a lack of true seeing, is one of the main causes of suffering.

When we are more self aware and non-judging, we are better able to interrupt the mental feedback loops that cause us to feel trapped stagnant.

This practice will focus on bringing you into deeper self awareness.

Yoga with Matthew - DISCOVERING YOUR PERSONAL POWER - session #2 - BREATH

Part 2/5 of a new yoga course, designed to empower you with yogic practices.

Area of focus for this practice: BREATH

Our breath is our most immediate and constant gateway into our present moment awareness.

Deepening connection to our breath holds immense value - we can do so much to regulate our nervous system with intentional breathing. In his book “light on yoga” Iyengar says “evenness of breathing leads to healthy nerves, and so to evenness of mind and temper."

Today we will explore different breath practices and observe their powerful effects on our being.

Part 3/5 of a new yoga course, designed to empower you with yogic practices.

The body is the vehicle through which we experience being. It is constantly giving us valuable feedback and information about our existence. When we deepen our connection to our body and its rhythms, we deepen in self mastery.

Yoga with Matthew - DISCOVERING YOUR PERSONAL POWER - session #5 - Personal Powe

Part 5/5 of a new yoga course, designed to empower you with yogic practices.

Area of focus for this practice: PERSONAL POWER

Personal power is not dominance; it is not something that we wield over others with a sense of superiority, nor is it a tool for selfish manipulation.

It is a grounded confidence that meets life’s unexpected challenges with an accepting readiness. It is faith in one’s self and our ability to persevere amidst adversity. It is an inner knowing that we can adapt and become conscious of self-limiting patterns, and develop new ways of being that allow us to serve and thrive!

What is your personal power?

The times we are living in can easily cause us to feel disempowered.

We seemingly can't trust information sources anymore. Facts have become blurry. Political and social issues are literaly splitting friends and families apart. It can be quite intense just navigating daily life!

In these times, I have been exploring the concept of being in my personal power. So what does that even mean?

To the yogi, this can mean feeling calm, confident, and grounded, and being capable of making sound decisions. It means the ability to manage difficult emotions, and taking good care of yourself, especially when times get challenging. It means having a strong connection to your intuition and inner guidance as you move through life.

To me, my sense of personal power comes from within. There so many external things competing for our attention, trying to tell us how to think, what to do, how to see the world.

Yoga and meditation teach us to go inward, find our center, and navigate our conscious experience with a clear and calm awareness.
This awareness is of tremendous value.

It is like a finely crafted blade, wielded with equanimity, cutting through the thick smoke of confusion we are living in.

Power does not need to mean great monetary wealth, influence over many people, or having great physical resources at your disposal. It can be found in the cultivation of a crystal clear awareness.

I encourage you to adopt a practice that allows you to find your personal power - your sense of navigating this complex world with a calm, clear awareness that is ready to rise up to challenges of life.

Never forget - YOU ARE POWERFUL!
