For anyone who is contemplating on “Becoming a Yoga Teacher” this is an epic opportunity to explore not only the roots of Yoga from a classical point of view but also to visit the place of birth of its sister science: AYURVEDA.

One month long teacher trainings are intense in many more ways than one, simultaneously providing you with the full spectrum of the practices in the sense that you will be living them day in and day out. From the moment you rise an hour before sun rise to sit in meditation and feel nature come alive, to the second you drop in bed from exhaustion from a full days work. Worth every second of it.
This program has been designed also for those with a keen heart for therapy as we focus on the therapeutic aspects of Yoga by fully understanding its connection to Ayurveda and how they are meant to be taught together not apart.
“A Yogi lifestyle is an Ayurvedic lifestyle,
An Ayurvedic lifestyle is a Yogic lifestyle”.

The course will take place in a traditional Ayurvedic retreat/clinic which has been so for many generations.
Ayurvedic treatments will be available as well as an opportunity to enrol in PANCHA KARMA. The Ayurvedic approach to deep cleansing.

We will also visit the famous “Back waters” by boat which is a must do when one visits this part of the precious Mother Earth.

An adventure of a lifetime.

Om.

AYURVEDIC TIPS TO KEEP U COOL:Taste: Bitter, sweet, and astringent tastes calm pitta, so eat more foods like apples, grapes, zucchini, lettuce, cucumbers, cilantro, and fresh organic dairy. Eliminate or reduce your intake of alcohol, heavy meats, and fried, oily, salty, spicy, and sour foods. Instead of salt, use fennel seeds, coriander, fenugreek, and fresh lime juice for seasoning.

Touch: Wear breathable natural fibers that have a cooling effect, such as cotton and linen.

Smell: Treat yourself to a fresh bouquet of tuberose, gardenia, or freesia. Or dab on a diluted essential oil: Try rose, jasmine, geranium, vetiver, or ylang ylang.

Sight: Take a break from work that requires intense visual focus. Gaze at summer’s verdant trees and meadows. Surround yourself with cooling hues of pearl white, blue, green, silver, and gray.

Sound: Listen to flute music and devotional songs to calm your heart and soothe your spirit.

Pranayama: Try cooling pranayama techniques, like Sitali and Sitkari, which are done by inhaling through the mouth and exhaling through the nose.

To do Sitali, sit in a comfortable position, make an O shape with your mouth, and curl the tongue lengthwise. Then, as B.K.S. Iyengar instructs in Light on Pranayama, “draw in air…as if drinking with a straw and fill the lungs completely.” Withdraw the tongue, close the mouth, and hold the breath for five to 10 seconds. Exhale through the nose. Repeat this cycle for five to 10 minutes and then rest in Savasana (Corpse Pose).

If you can’t curl your tongue, try Sitkari, which is similar to Sitali except that the tongue is kept flat. Part the lips and allow the tip of the tongue to protrude slightly. Practice gently and without intensity early or late in the day, when the air is cool.

EMBRACE The DARKNESS OF WINTER SOLSTICE

lilyPod Yoga & Ayurveda

EMBRACE THE DARKNESS OF WINTER SOLSTICE

“I must also have a dark side if I am to be whole.”
– Carl Jung

“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.
The winter solstice has always been celebrated in China as the resting time of the year. In winter the life energy, symbolized by thunder (the Arousing), is still underground. Movement is just beginning, therefore it must be strengthened by rest so that it will not dissipate prematurely. Rest reinforces the renewal of energy. The return of health after illness, the return of understanding after an estrangement… everything must be treated tenderly and with care at the beginning so that the return may lead to a flowering.”
– Darren Austin Hall
(Elephant Journal)

To truly understand the return of the light, we must first embrace darkness, external and internal. Winter Solstice is a perfect opportunity to perfect the relationship with ourselves so we can then perfect it with all those we LOVE around us.

A few tips:
– SHARE your light (gather with loved ones to sing, dance, eat, keep it simple, light candles and incense)
– DO something nice for someone (SEVA) donate food, clothing etc…
– REST, relax, nurture. MEDITATE
– STROKE ur inner fire.
ENJOY BEING without effort.

ENJOY,
Namaste
