“In every difficult situation Yoga for me has been an outlet and enlightenment as well as  awakening. I have been soul searching all my life and could not find any answers to why there is so  much inner suffering.

When I hit rock bottom by  making the biggest decision of my life with my two children. Putting my head on the yoga mat has saved me by asking questions throughout doing asanas and every pose gave me clarity in life. I started answering my own questions by digging deep inside myself and finding solutions to all my questions.

Yoga has changed my life and I started to have a more positive outlook on life, Happiness within, and gained confidence to start being more aware of my intuition.Yoga to me is serenity, my altar, my prayers and my inner peace.”

What  type of  yoga  do  you specialize  in?   Vinyasa flow with Hatha asanas

What  do  you prefer/enjoy about this form of yoga?

It’s a beautiful practice that flows like a dance. As a classical dancer from childhood, my body has been connected to movement and free flow without any worries or stress.

As an adult when I got introduced to yoga in 2007, I have tried all styles of yoga, but I keep coming back to vinyasa. It is such a beautiful spiritual practice of flow that reminds me of, as I was a child dancing in a free flow. My body is filled with love and music that soothes and heals the Mind, body and soul. Love vinyasa🙏🏻

Is   yoga   the   new,   hip   mantra   for   healing?   

Yoga for sure is a healing process, spiritually, working on your chakras, opening energy, bringing awareness to buried pain and old trauma and release through doing different asanas.

Would you recommend meditation as a therapy?

Absolutely! Meditation calms the mind by focusing on breathing,

Developing a daily meditation practice helped me learn to settle my nervous system. Whenever I feel stressed or anxious I go back to breathing very slowly and my mind starts to calm down.

Please describe your journey to yoga: Why do you devote your life to this practice, and how has it changed you? Yoga  is a  lifestyle change, It is a tool that stays with you as a natural habit that you do anywhere. Incorporating yoga practice in my life brough Intuition direction guide of how to carry breath as a tool to be able to face the world with any situations  in life.  Going back to my yoga mat for a happy or difficult situation has brought different prospects and looking at it in a different view and coming out of the mat and dealing with problems have helped me make right decisions and handle people and problems more Efficiently.

What are some other common, incorrect assumptions and myths about yoga?

  1. Yoga belongs to one religion. …
  2. Yoga is only bodily postures. …
  3. You can learn it through books. …
  4. You should be flexible. …
  5. Yoga is only for young people. …
  6. It is time-consuming. …
  7. Yoga means total lifestyle change. …
  8. Yoga is not for asthmatics.
  9. All these assumptions are misleading yoga!!!!!!!

How do you come up with topics for your workshops? Is learners’ feedback valuable for generating new ideas?

Ideas based on need of the information sent out via experience in a situation that work on creating a material for the workshop to educate about the topic, So we have better understanding of the topic being discussed to have others be more aware and make the community a better mental state to live with Contentment.

YouTube and other forms of teaching are gaining popularity these days. What is your advice for teachers who would like to start teaching online?  

Yes, it’s a great tool to reach out to people and send the message and teach and educate them in a most organic way, But at the same time you cannot take an online course for a weekend to become a yoga instructor and get certifed and start teaching. In western world, college students are getting trained on weekends to become certified and teach yoga, Which is completely misleads the  next generation about the sanskrit approach to yoga. ( e.g Beer and yoga class, wine and yoga)

Do you have any message for our readers ? 

As a Yogini, all i would say, yoga actually originated in India thousands of years ago as a spiritual practice to promote the well-being of humanity. The word “yoga” is derived from the Sanskrit yuj,meaning to join or unite. In essence, yoga is meant to unite the mind, body, and spirit in harmony as a way to overcome suffering.
