Dr. Vasant Lad on Activating a Marma Energy Point

/in /by

Like a door or a pathway, activating a marma energy point, opens into the inner pharmacy of the body. The body is a silent, universal, biochemical laboratory—operating every moment to interpret and transform arising events.

Touching a marma point changes the body’s biochemistry and can unfold radical, alchemical change in one’s makeup. Stimulation of these inner pharmacy pathways signals the body to produce exactly what it needs, including hormones and neurochemicals that heal the body, mind and consciousness.

Murdhini marma, is the energy point enabling moment to moment awareness, meditation.

Tyler Wauters on Walking in the Woods

Tyler Wauters:
Walk in the Woods.

When we walk through a forest path, there is a vibration sent out that is a form of communication, a form of language. When we enter a forest, it is up to us to learn how to communicate with it by communicating with our own inner workings, mending the relationship, by igniting the knowing that the forest is the nature within us, that we are not separate.

Our work here is to connect to our inner nature and to connect to nature that is all around us.

Sadhguru on Being “Shit-Scared”

/in /by

Sadhguru

If you get scared, you will either have loose motions or get constipated. That/s why we say “shit-scared”. What is happening in your mind and what is happening “down there” are connected.

Hatha Yoga Pradipika on the Winds of Change

/in /by

Autumn is a time when the air element (vayu) is predominant. There is more lightness, dryness and coolness as the “winds of change” blow ever more erratically.

These qualities in nature have a tendency to aggravate the air and ether element within our bodies, thus affecting our nervous systems, and how well we digest food.

Autumn is naturally a time of balancing vata and reducing any symptoms of wind, dryness and erratic behavioiur….the vayu should be skilfully inhaled and exhaled and retained.
