Surrenderandfeel & Kevin : Inversion Immersion Workshop at Our Body Space

[rumi-nations]

Spring Cleaning for Your Well-being

Most of the yard is covered in 18+ inches of snow right now. The driveway is slick with ice and slush. And yet. And yet I can feel spring in the air. It’s almost like a psychic form of proprioception. I can’t see the flowers and grass yet, but I know they’re waking up. There are more birds outside, the squirrels and chipmunks are skittering over the snow more often. Having spent my entire life��

Tool making and mark making workshop 16/01/24

Part 2

I also created another piece of work in this workshop.

It is a replication of the myself doing warrior 1 pose from yoga.

I adore the colours I used in it, as for me, they represent the calming feeling of yoga.

I was also thinking about what I learnt from doing the life drawing on monday, how different tones are needed. So hence why I used shades of blue green and yellow green.

The tool used to make this piece consists of an old toy water gun, a stick and a lock of my hair.

I decided to make this with a gun-like object as I feel guns can be a symbol of a toxic, threatening power, which I feel is quite a difference from the gentle power and security that yoga creates within. So using it to paint changes its power.

Also below are other tools I made and marks they created.

I had so much fun making everything and seeing which worked and what didn't.

Exploring Tantra Yoga and Intimacy Workshops in San Francisco: Enhancing Connection and Personal Growth

Embarking upon the labyrinthine journey of Tantra Yoga and Intimacy Workshops in the bustling megalopolis of San Francisco: Amplifying Connectivity and Self-Evolution

Preliminary Glimpse into Tantra Yoga: Cracking the Cipher to Interconnection and Self-Unearthing

Concealed amidst the tumultuous urban sprawl of San Francisco, a tranquil alleyway towards self-illumination and profound interconnection unfurls – Tantra Yoga. This archaic discipline, shrouded in an enigmatic aura replete with misapprehensions, beckons the seeker onto a transformative odyssey that not only enriches personal evolution but also forges deeper bonds with our human counterparts. Within this discourse, we shall venture into the realm of Tantra Yoga, unveiling its multifarious advantages for the psyche, physique, and metaphysical sphere. Moreover, we shall navigate the intricate fusion of Tantra Yoga with the intimate workshop milieu in the effervescent city of San Francisco.

Tantra Yoga: A Footpath to Self-Revelation

At its nucleus, Tantra Yoga is more than merely a corporeal undertaking; it serves as a spiritual expedition. Etymologically derived from the Sanskrit "tan," signifying "expansion," and "tra," connoting "liberation," Tantra seeks to broaden one's awareness, effecting emancipation from the confines of constrictive dogmas and societal constraints. This expansion culminates in a profound link with both the inner self and the cosmos at large.

The Merits of Tantra Yoga for the Psyche, Physique, and Ethereal Self

1. Augmented Self-Cognizance: Tantra Yoga extols introspection and self-contemplation, equipping individuals to plumb the depths of their innermost beings, thereby garnering a deeper insight into their desires, anxieties, and aspirations.

2. Mitigation of Stress: Through the art of mindfulness and the practice of deliberate breath control, Tantra Yoga acts as a potent antidote to the perils of stress and anxiety, nurturing mental and emotional equilibrium.

3. Enhanced Interpersonal Relationships: By sowing the seeds of self-love and self-acceptance, Tantra Yoga paves the way for more robust and meaningful connections with our fellow beings.

4. Meticulous Mindfulness: Tantra Yoga celebrates the art of embracing the present moment, endowing its practitioners with heightened focus, emotional steadiness, and an augmented appreciation for the simple joys of existence.

Deciphering the Enigma of Intimacy Workshops: Cultivating Profound Bonds in San Francisco

Amidst the kaleidoscope of San Francisco's cultural diversity, intimate workshops present a unique opportunity for individuals to plumb the depths of their connections with others. These workshops are tailored to the refinement of communication skills, elevation of emotional intelligence, and nurturing the ability to forge profound and lasting relationships. They stand as an ideal sanctuary for those on the quest for personal growth and a more profound connection with the human experience.

Intimacy Workshops in San Francisco: A Nexus for Interconnection

1. Forging Deeper Ties: Intimacy workshops provide a safe haven wherein participants may venture into the realms of vulnerability, trust, and the exploration of emotional intimacy with their peers, culminating in connections that transcend the superficial.

2. The Refinement of Communicative Artistry: Effective communication lies at the core of any successful relationship. Intimacy workshops impart the skills of active listening, empathetic discourse, and adroit conflict resolution.

3. Embracing Emotional Intelligence: Participants emerge from these workshops equipped with the capability to apprehend and manage their own emotional states while empathizing with the emotions of others, ultimately culminating in healthier and more fulfilling interactions and relationships.

The Symbiosis of Tantra Yoga and the Enhancement of Intimate Relationships

Tantra Yoga and intimate relationships are interwoven, for Tantra bestows upon couples an arsenal of invaluable tools to enrich their emotional bonds, augment pleasure, and deepen intimacy. Here are several pathways through which Tantra Yoga embellishes intimate relationships:

1. Fostering Deeper Emotional Connections: Tantra advocates for the forging of profound emotional bonds between partners, thereby nurturing trust and intimacy that transcends mere physical allure.

2. Amplification of Pleasure: Tantra imparts techniques that elevate sensory awareness, allowing couples to bask in heightened pleasure and satisfaction during their intimate moments.

3. Augmented Communication: Tantra Yoga underscores the importance of forthright and unreserved communication, an indispensable cornerstone for erecting a robust and gratifying partnership.

4. Fostering Mindful Intimacy: Through the incorporation of mindfulness practices, couples can immerse themselves wholly in their intimate interludes, savoring each moment and deepening their connection.

Hanuman Chalisa workshop

From Flow of Grace, by KD:

I went to India in the fall of 1970 to meet Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaj-ji), after having heard about him from Ram Dass.

By the spring of 1971, I , along with some other westerners, had gone up to the Kumaon Hills, the magical foothills of the Himalayas, where Maharajji was staying at his Hanuman temple in Kainchi. We were staying at the Evelyn Hotel in the nearby hill station of Nainital. Every day we would make the one hour trip by bus along the narrow winding roads through the mountains to see him and spend the day at the temple. Each time we arrived, we were fed a huge, delicious meal of puris and potatoes and given a little booklet with a picture of Hanuman on it. One day, I happened to ask someone at the temple about them and was told that they contained a prayer to Hanuman called the Hanuman Chalisa. The Hanuman Chalisa is a hymn of forty verses that describes and praises the life, character, and exploits of Hanuman. At that moment, I had the idea to try to learn it so we could sing it to Maharajji.

Rameshwar Das, another American, and I began to learn the Hindi alphabet. We transcribed the whole prayer and were taught a melody by an Indian friend. It took the whole rainy season and summer to begin to feel comfortable singing the Chalisa. By the time we returned to Nainital and Kainchi, most of the other westerners had copied it into their books and had begun to learn it as well. We hadn't even memorized six verses when one afternoon we were called to the front of the temple where Maharajji was sitting. He was very excited and said , " Sing the Chalisa!"

We were completely unprepared but managed to sing the few verses we knew. He laughed and was very happy.

We quickly became an official part of the 'show.'

When Indian devotees came to see him, Maharajji would often call us and have us sing the Chalisa. No matter how many times we did it, he would always look totally surprised-with a look of joy and amazement on His face, as if it were the first time he had ever heard it.

He would laughingly tease his Indian devotees for their lack of devotion and sincerity, saying , " look at these people. Out of their love for God, they have left everything behind in America, while you wicked, greedy people come to see me out of your own selfish desires!"

Of course, it was all part of his unique way of teaching everyone their own special lesson.

We began to chant the Hanuman Chalisa as a way of bringing ourselves into Maharajji's physical presence.

It was a way of expressing our love and devotion to him.

For us, Hanuman and Maharajji were the same.

Chanting the Chalisa to Maharajji helped us enter into the love that his presence embodied.

It became a way of deepening our relationship with him, and ultimately with ourselves.

It has been thirty-three years since Maharajji has left his body, and chanting the Chalisa has become an even more powerful way for me to enter into the flow of Love and Grace.

In the Chalisa, we bow to the great beauty, strength, and devotion that Hanuman embodies ; we also begin to bow to that place in ourselves.

The Chalisa inspires us to try  to become like him, to make the mirror of our heart as clean as Hanuman's so that we can become aware of the great beauty and love that lives within us, our own true nature., the One

without a second.

This is the Great being known by many names throughout the many spiritual and religious traditions in the world.

Each culture and each religion has its own coloured glasses through which it sees the universe. The reports from the frontlines differ only in form, not in substance. They are all looking at the same thing.

Maharajji would continually remind us that it is all One. Over and over he said ,"Hanuman, Christ, and Krishna are the same," and "all paths lead to the same goal."

Again and again, he turned us to the oneness of life, reminding us that 'the same blood runs through everyone's veins."

It was through reading and chanting the Hanuman Chalisa that I began to understand the subtlety and power of the path of devotion and the sublime way that love can transform the hardest heart into the heart of a saint.

It is love that brings meaning to our lives. The path of love goes right through the middle of every heart. No one is locked out. No one is turned away. No one is unworthy.

The love that lives within each and every being is Bhagavan; it is Ram, Buddha nature, the Atman, the Great Goddess, the Self, the One. It is who we are- our own True Nature, radiant and shining like a million suns.We long to be with the Beloved , to feel that presence of love in our hearts, but in the eyes of God, we have never been separate-not even for a second.

The Hanuman Chalisa is chanted specifically to clean the mirror of our hearts so we can become into direct contact with the grace of Hanuman. His Grace awakens us to the awareness of Ram's presence within.This is when our hearts truly come alive.

[nainayoga]

In this era of technology and fast-paced lifestyles, a poor lifestyle may quickly become a habit, resulting in a variety of lifestyle-related problems affecting both young and elderly people. With a lot of duties, one may begin to overthink it, which may lead to stress.This eventually develop into a variety of disorders, which can be more stressful for you and your body. Sleep apnea is a sleeping disorder that can lead to major health issues like high blood pressure ,Tachycardia and heart difficulties. It is one of those disorders that can worsen if not addressed.

What Exactly Is Sleep Apnea?

Sleep apnea is a potentially serious sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts. If you snore loudly and feel tired even after a full night's sleep, you might have sleep apnea.

The Main Types Of Sleep Apnea Are

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is the more common form that occurs when throat muscles relax and block the flow of air into the lungs

Central sleep apnea (CSA), which occurs when the brain doesn't send proper signals to the muscles that control breathing

Treatment-emergent central sleep apnea, also known as complex sleep apnea, which happens when someone has OSA — diagnosed with a sleep study — that converts to CSA when receiving therapy for OSA

Untreated sleep apnea causes people to stop breathing periodically during the night, often hundreds of times. Sleep apnea can lead to a variety of health issues, including acidity, headaches, hypertension, Tachycardia ,stroke, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, diabetes, and heart attacks. Sleep apnea can also cause professional damage, work-related accidents, and car accidents, as well as academic failure in children and teenagers.

Sleep Apnea Symptoms

The symptoms of obstructive and central sleep apneas overlap, sometimes making it difficult to determine which type you have. The most common symptoms of obstructive and central sleep apneas include:

Loud snoring

Episodes in which you stop breathing during sleep — which would be reported by another person.

Gasping for air during sleep.

Awakening with a dry mouth.

Morning headache

Difficulty staying asleep, known as insomnia.

Excessive daytime sleepiness, known as hypersomnia.

Difficulty paying attention while awake.

Irritability

Causes

1. Obstructive Sleep Apnea

This type of sleep apnea happens when the muscles in the back of the throat relax. These muscles support the soft palate, the triangular piece of tissue hanging from the soft palate called the uvula, the tonsils, the side walls of the throat and the tongue.

When the muscles relax, your airway narrows or closes as you breathe in. You can't get enough air, which can lower the oxygen level in your blood. Your brain senses that you can't breathe, and briefly wakes you so that you can reopen your airway. This awakening is usually so brief that you don't remember it.

You might snort, choke or gasp. This pattern can repeat itself 5 to 30 times or more each hour, all night. This makes it hard to reach the deep, restful phases of sleep.

2. Central Sleep Apnea

This less common form of sleep apnea occurs when your brain fails to send signals to your breathing muscles. This means that you make no effort to breathe for a short period. You might awaken with shortness of breath or have a difficult time getting to sleep or staying asleep.

Risk Factors

Sleep apnea can affect anyone, even children. But certain factors increase your risk.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Factors that increase the risk of this form of sleep apnea include:

Excess weight. Obesity greatly increases the risk of OSA. Fat deposits around your upper airway can obstruct your breathing.

Neck circumference. People with thicker necks might have narrower airways.

A narrowed airway. You might have inherited a narrow throat. Tonsils or adenoids also can enlarge and block the airway, particularly in children.

Being male. Men are 2 to 3 times more likely to have sleep apnea than are women. However, women increase their risk if they're overweight or if they've gone through menopause.

Being older. Sleep apnea occurs significantly more often in older adults.

Family history. Having family members with sleep apnea might increase your risk.

Use of alcohol, sedatives or tranquilizers. These substances relax the muscles in your throat, which can worsen obstructive sleep apnea.

Smoking. Smokers are three times more likely to have obstructive sleep apnea than are people who've never smoked. Smoking can increase the amount of inflammation and fluid retention in the upper airway.

Nasal congestion. If you have trouble breathing through your nose — whether from an anatomical problem or allergies — you're more likely to develop obstructive sleep apnea.

Medical conditions. Congestive heart failure, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes are some of the conditions that may increase the risk of obstructive sleep apnea. Polycystic ovary syndrome, hormonal disorders, prior stroke and chronic lung diseases such as asthma also can increase risk.

Central Sleep Apnea

Risk factors for this form of sleep apnea include:

Being older. Middle-aged and older people have a higher risk of central sleep apnea.

Being male. Central sleep apnea is more common in men than it is in women.

Heart disorders. Having congestive heart failure increases the risk.

Using narcotic pain medicines. Opioid medicines, especially long-acting ones such as methadone, increase the risk of central sleep apnea.:

Stroke. Having had a stroke increases the risk of central sleep apnea.

Complications Linked To Sleep Apnea

Snoring can make for a bad night’s sleep, for you and your bed mate. But if it happens because you have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), it’s a sign of a bigger health problems.

High blood pressure

Heart disease

Heart failure

Stroke

Type 2 diabetes

Weight gain

Metabolic syndrome

Adult asthma

Acid reflux

Brain fog

Daytime sleepiness

Car accidents

Memory loss

Depression

Development of the brief and life drawing workshop with Eoin. 15/01/24

Today, I choose to focus on the painting elective for the week, which led me to choose @eoinmclsad workshop.

We spent the morning in the church gallery, discussing ideas together (the group of us doing the workshop) and then having one on one discussions with Eoin.

I feel very good after doing this. I feel it has helped me navigate and narrow down what I want my concept to be.

(See sketch book and notebook work)

In the afternoon, we then did the life drawing with model Jeff. (Pictures of before we started, getting set up)

It was a tiring but very rewarding experience. I felt the more I observed and drew the model, the more my work improved.

This work today will benefit me over the coming week, as I feel, my project work will be focused heavily on gestures and poses.
