RE: How Yoga Changed My Life. Story Of Grumpy Gym Rat.

in #life7 years ago

Do you have any tips for getting through the early-middle stages of starting a practice? I feel like I'm reaching a certain plateau where my body just isn't isn't getting more flexible and I'm discovering less and less...

Read more about yoga that will reveal a whole universe of wisdom, it'll make it more interesting for you. Stay in the poses longer. Way longer than what any commercial class allows, and go deeper with every breath. Play solfeggio frequencies music (tons on Youtube) and start your own practice as a gift to yourself. Make it kinda holy ritual, it will bring it to next level. Learn enough of alignment that you can follow your own intuition instead of doing sequences that everyone does. Start with Pranayama (breathing exercise, even short one) and end with meditation, it will eventually take you to a place where asana is just playground, your peace is the real thing. I do prayers/affirmations after my practice too, it's super powerful - for myself and for whole humanity. Breath breath breath, that's the key. Anything that resonated with you , try it.
