Yoga Musings

As I travel on this Yoga Path, whatever that is, I have many experiences that seem to be eye opening.  Just the other day I had an argument with a meat eater about Hinduism and Vegetarianism.  On many levels, this was a Yogic experience for me.  I saw my passion for my Yoga come up in defensiveness, and then the observation that I was witnessing my reaction to what I saw as an attack.  I realized, I have not learned as much as I think I have and still  need to breath and be present.
Working on allowing my theme for January's teachings in Yoga class to come to life, that of Contentment has been fun this month.  Seeing when I am wanting change, or thinking things would be better 'if only' tells me much about myself.  Having a theme I work on for a month while teaching creates a thread to my classes and to my own practice.  It creates, for me, a living, breathing lesson to learn and share with others. 
Watching 'Enlighten Up' the Yoga movie really shows to me how little people can explain the why of what they do.  It shows to me that the practice of  'Yoga' is really something individual.  That it is an art not a sport and that for each person that does Yoga, it is their own version and interpretation. 
This Yoga Path is so interesting, constantly changing and amusing.
