I VENERATE YOGA!!!
Here I am in 3 different Bikram poses.

I have venerated yoga for 25 years.
I THINK IT IS ONE OF THE KEYS
TO ETERNAL YOUTHFULLNESS!

I began w/ my sister Ginny in 1977,
going up to the mirrored dance studio
at Plattsburgh State. We were hippies stretching into yoga,............stoned :>}

Since then,
I have practiced all sorts of yoga styles,
but mostly iyengar system,
till i came to the city
(San Francisco) and the Bikram studio
was a bike-ride from home,
and iyengar was across town.

So i started the class
I SWORE I'D NEVER do,
when i first heard about it....
because of the INTENSE HEAT....

...But there it was,
a few blocks away,
so i swallowed my ego
and bit the bullet and hit the heat...

for 3 years , VORACIOUSLY,
and then even TAUGHT it here in hawaii for another 2 years while i studied a KRIYA YOGA TEACHER TRAINING CORRESPONDENCE COURSE : {www.yogakriya.org } iwhich wasTHOROUGH AND CHALLENGING ,DEEP,EXTENSIVE

..I HAd BEEN DOING YOGA FOR ALL THESE YEARS AND WHAT I REALIZED doing this course : I KNOW NOTHING!!....... ;about all the branches of yoga....HOW HATHA [physical yoga} is only a small part of this UNITY BASEDbelief system

and yet WHAT i also found out that i was BEING A yogiNI and i didn't even know it !?that i was/AM PRACTICING the Yamas and the Niyamas,dilligently,AND I I BELIEVE WhOLe HeARteDLy IN THE FUNdamental YOGA PREMISE :
WE ARE ALL ONE!!!!

"NAMASTE',," ...... means :
"I HONOR THAT PLACE IN YOU WHERE THE UNIVERSE RESIDES;I HONOR THAT PLACE OF LOVE AND LIGHT AND PEACE AND TRUTH
I AM HONORING THAT PLACE ,WHERE IF YOU ARE IN THAT PLACE AND I AM IN THAT PLACE, THERE IS ONLY ONE OF US.

then, in april, 2004 , i took another yoga teacher training W/ DIABOLIC DUO;HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM ,EDDIE MODESTINO AND NICKY DOANE , who EMulATE YOGA in their TEACHINGS ,in their BEINGS ,here on maui at their studio :www.yogaonmaui.com
it was ISHTANGA based ......THEY ROCKED MY WORLD!! and expanded my practice...... ,MEGAFOLD!!!
FOR 2 YEARS ,since then, i have gotten stronger THAN ever ,in my yoga practice AND I ADORE IT 4-5 TIMES AWEEK FOR ONE HOUR.
[HIGH NOON YOGA] AND ..............
,i developed a
"jeanneflow" yoga class choreagraphed to music !!it's a compilation of what i have learned from all my yoga teachers........
it's WAY FUN AND STRENGTHENING FOR SURE ...SO that's the SUM UP OF YOGAINMYLIFE...........
A DELIGHT !! A PRORITY .... A REMINDER ...,OF UNITY,FLEXIBILITY,TRANQUILITY,........... IT'S A KEEPER!
if you have a practice ,i CELEBRATE w/ you...if you don't, i invite you to try it...there are so many styles and levels ;from very simple and restorative to very challenging and rigorous.... i ENCOURAGE you, EXPLORE and find the one that vibrates w/ you!
in the SPIRIT OF SHARING LOVE AND INFORMATION,
namaste',jeanne angelheart

WHAT IS YOGA?

Yoga is an ancient science of health and healing that originated in the East more than 5,000 years ago. The teachings of this tradition suggest that inherent in each of us, there is a marriage between body, mind and spirit.

In the course of our daily lives, these aspects can become disconnected and conflicted. As a result, we become subject to a host of modern ills, ranging from stress and disease to fatigue and depression. However when our bodies, minds, and spirits remain closely bound, we manifest serenity, strength, and wellness.

The aim of Yoga is to restore and preserve the fundamental unity of our three-part nature.
