Hatha Yoga vs Vinyasa Yoga Hatha Yoga, which is one of the oldest branches of yoga practiced, uses physical techniques to preserve and channel the vital force or energy, otherwise known as Prana. The Sanskrit word हठ haṭha literally means "force," thus alluding to a system of physical techniques and movement in the body. With this type of yoga, you move your body slowly and deliberately into different poses that challenge your strength and flexibility, while at the same time focusing on relaxation and mindfulness. On another note, Hatha Yoga has been known as meaning “sun” and “moon”, but this isn’t necessarily the case. Svatmarama, the author of Haṭha Yoga Pradīpikā-a classic 15th century Sanskrit manual-speaks of how the physical practices can also be seen to impact the flow of energy in the body. In particular, he discusses how they pertain to what some Yogis considered the two primary energy channels of individuals prior to enlightenment. These channels are known as the Ida and the Pingala, and can be compared to the complementary forces that make up life: male and female, Yin and Yang, solar and lunar, etc. Svatmarama then goes on to explain that part of what the hatha yogi is doing can be thought of as balancing these two energies – in a sense, he says, uniting the “solar” and the “lunar” elements of the body. Hatha Yoga is somewhat different from Vinyasa Yoga, which is very popular in the west. In Vinyasa, a person usually moves from one pose to the next at the teacher’s discretion. This transition coordinates with your breathing. It is done specifically as you exhale or inhale, and it gives you the feeling that your breath is moving your body. In our Alula Yoga classes, I teach more of a Hatha Yoga style, and Kara teaches Vinyasa style yoga. Both consider mindful movement and utilize breath with every pose and transition and both have great health benefit such as lowering stress and anxiety, and building strength and flexibility.

“Samkhya, one of the six classical Indian darshanas, or “ways to see”, is an attempt to explain the nature of all existence by dividing it into Purusha-pure consciousness or that which is unchanging, and Prakriti-non-consciousness or the original or natural form or condition of anything. It tells us that the separation of these two states is the cause of our suffering and that the path to liberation is through repression, withdrawal of our senses, and control of our body in order to reconnect with our true Self. Samkhya calls this re-union the state of yoga.” -excerpt from Yoga Body, Buddha Mind by Cyndi Lee ✨Comment your thoughts on this philosophy and if it is relevant in your own life.✨ 🎨 This profound visionary art was created by my lovely friend, @ilaroseart, called “Inner Infinitum” and is currently on display at the @threyda gallery in Denver. #spirituality #selfmastery #yogaideals #yogasutra #patanjali #darsana #yogalineage #hindu #buddhism #sankhya #spiritualtalk #sacredart #visionaryart #consciousart #creativethinking #yoga #higherself #creativeyogi https://www.instagram.com/p/CemvLNfOpG3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m in love with creating things, I cannot lie. Sometimes i collect things and just let them dry. Then I stick them onto other things and it’s so cute, I wanna cry. A crafter for life, until I die. Because to Create to Create is a mindful act, making me present and heal as a matter of fact. For this experience in life is a precious gift from above, it’s within each and every one of us, for each of us to share and Love. So start with a doodle, or start with a sketch, or do up a cannoodle or a wearable thing that can stretch. It’s all within you if you commence and explore, the works of art you can create, if you just open the door. -urbnlgnd #livelifecreatively #artist4life #strivingartist #create #creator #createeveryday #artistlife #orgonite #electroforming #interiordesign #craftor #crystaljewelry #usewhatyouhave #smudgesticks #alchemistartist #creativity #createandheal #manifest #2020projects #followyourheart (at Colorado Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNIsZZtDkqs/?igshid=vy1ew4c3wewr

A new reveal of our self-mined Colorado amazonite, which was cut, tumbled and electroformed into a heady copper ring. This #pikespeacockgreen from a world class pocket of amazonite is out of this world in terms of color saturation, and it’s translucent too, so I kept a little open area in the back for the light to shine through. I’ll be working with a lot of this highly energetic, heart chakra mineral, and making them into unique pieces, let me know if you’re interested in a custom ring, pendant, or need amazonite crystals or rough for lapidary. Look for updates on @anandaminerals. 🤎���🦚💙🤎 Tunage: 7 Kidz-The Beast (VIP) #electroforming #electroformingart #electroformed #coloradomineral #usmined #usminerals #coloradojade #coloradoamazonite #greenstone #customjewelry #amazonitering #amazonitejewelry #peacockgreen #lapidary #jewlerymaker #alchemyartist #satisfyingpost #revealed https://www.instagram.com/p/CMf_nmbDpFz/?igshid=19mlj12qs20t4

Finished up this #talon for @julianabemben, right in time for a hail storm! She wanted one side exposed, so this meant sealing the skin and claws and going slow and low in the bath. Enjoyed preserving these pieces of deceased nature. Swipe for the jawbone earrings and an embellished tooth. #preservenature #electroforming #electroplating #copperplated #copperbones #indestructible #treasuresofthedead #cycleoflife #magickal #wiccan #bonejewelry #ancienttechniques #tribaljewerly #electroart #alchemyartist #alchemyart @electroguild @electroformingartists (at Ivywild) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDg3ImHjm_M/?igshid=1vtho4xuklgvj

An #electroformed pendant just finished for a neighbor friend, made with a tourmalinated quartz cabochon embedded with garnet chips. Chain is pure copper with freshwater pearls, jasper, and faceted black glass beads. #electroforming #copperjewelry #highvibrational #magickgems #groundingstones #protectingstones #gemsandminerals #garnet #jasper #freshwaterpearls #tourmalinated #includedquartz #blacktourmaline #geologylove #garnetcrystal #riograndejeweler #handcrafted #electroformingartist #livelifecreatively https://www.instagram.com/p/BvsQED9ntY0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12s4xtqrbenpr

A couple of #electrofomed rings just finished with #arizonacrystals that were personally dug. Mike and I actually located some #amethystcrystals in this spot that was only known for clear quartz....some are pictured here. 💍Available.

Life will someday split you open, even if your life is now a cage. Little by little, you will turn into stars. Little by little you will turn into the whole sweet, amorous universe. Love will surely burst you wide open into an unfettered, booming new galaxy. You will become so free in a wonderful secret and pure love that flows from a conscious, one-pointed, infinite light. Even then, my dear, the beloved will have fulfilled just a fraction, just a fraction! Of a promise he wrote upon your heart. For a divine seed, the crown of destiny is hidden and sown on an ancient, fertile plain you hold the title to. O, look again within yourself, for I know you were once the elegant host to all the marvels in creation. When your soul begins to ever bloom and laugh and spin in eternal ecstasy. O, little by little, you will turn into God. -Hafiz On this day, you came to this earth, an evolved soul with a mission that you completed. You touched so many lives with your profound wisdom, Love, and Light. We are all enriched and enlightened for knowing you. A beloved birthday we will never forget. I love you forever Nico. 2/23/83-10/26/17 #ripnicomonteiro #soulbrother #starseed #earthling #blessedbeing #alwaysinourhearts #spirit #passedover #lovebeing #missu https://www.instagram.com/p/BuPEpsOnI06/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kkncdh7prdmr

#busbar🎵 #electroforming #boulderopal I’ve coated this one previously, about to get another “dip” ⚗️ She’s sealed with three coats of good ol’ #modgepodge. I always seal opals, energetically too! 🤲 #inthelab #copperbusbar #artnouveauinspired https://www.instagram.com/p/BttgiE4nkZO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=64u7omk9w4ht

Some freshies from this last week ⚗️I will be building these into my inventory for gem shows we plan on doing this year with @urbanfantasia. My goal is to have 300 completed pieces by April 🙃 Each one of these takes about 8-10 hours in the bath, and about 2-3 hours to build and prepare for electroforming. That’s my pace, it’s getting faster, but i do love to take my time and enjoy the process of creating🐢 #livelifecreatively #electroforming #copperplating #crystaljewelry #brandbergamethyst #amazonitejewelry #labradoritecabs #purpleflash #rutilatedquartz #auralite23 #harlequinamethyst #purplestones #hammeredcopper #creativehealing #creativeprocess https://www.instagram.com/p/BtgzA_1HB9V/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10mgju2llhr3x

Colorado blessings. I always knew there was magic for me in this state, and so far everything has been falling into place nicely. Although we still have our Airstream home out in southern Ca, I know that I am Home, and when I say Home, I mean the seat of my soul within. My health has improved tremendously, as I breathe cleaner air, have been trail running again, and get to be in nature and prospect some of the most amazing terrain on the planet. My creative arts have been steadily rewarding, and I’m finding more energy and time for what I love most because of our modest living situation (living in the folk’s finished basement and sharing expenses). Not to mention, I get regular doses of sound system music up in Denver...which has completely inspired my art and music more than ever. Before I moved here, I had some health issues, I was maxed out with headaches, gut inflammation, depression and anxiety, and couldn’t seem to hone in on my purpose. But I knew change in a new climate, around new energies and healthy vibrations would stimulate me and it seemed this is what the universe was just telling me all along. To make the change, and go with the flow. I’m so glad I followed my heart. Thank you Colorado for honoring my soul and helping me find the Light within ✨🌲🏔❤️#gratefulpost #coloradolove #livelifecreatively #livemodest #becreatelove #thelightwithin #healthyandhealing #creativehealing https://www.instagram.com/p/BouFqN3HxxV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wg6hfdiypzaz
