Asanas for Muladhara Chakra
April 9, 2013
The 7 Chakras are the spiritual energy centres within the body.
Muladhara is the root chakra, related to the colour red
and located at the base of the spine.
It represents our foundation and feeling of being grounded.
When we are balanced in this chakra
we will feel confident, strong and steady.
When we are experiencing imbalance
we will feel fearful, and insecure, living more in the head than in the body.
We can become ungrounded in our root chakra
when we are in periods of movement,
when we are experiencing changes in our lives.
Here are some great asanas to awaken the Muladhara chakra
and create a stronger sense of grounding in the body and mind.

Yoga is not just posture !
March 17, 2013
“Remember,
it doesn’t matter how deep into a posture you go,
what does matter is
who you are when you get there.”
Max Strom
Yoga is not just posture.
The form, a perfect physical body, is not the goal.
The body is simply the vehicle we use to bring us
toward a deeper experience of who we are:
The Inner Self.
The goal of yoga is to channel the mind, body and spirit
so that each works together leading to a greater personal understanding.
When all aspects are in balance,
we are able to transcend the physical
and experience the deeper subtlety of our being.
