25.01.2022 So remember the name of THAT one who is illuminating every soul. #sunrise #morningroutine #morningritual #dobeyoga #yogaeverydamnday #meditation #bhakti #perfection #australiasunrise #australia #medicine This morning sunrise, too perfect not to share Medicine for everything and everyone!!!

25.01.2022 If you know me well, you heard me saying that I have torn meniscus in both knees and that I always access the practice at the moment. Did I hurt my knees practicing Yoga, the more specific primary series of Ashtanga Yoga? Did I always practice with no agenda? NO WAY! Do injuries teach you to be a better teacher? HELL YEAH!... The primary series itself is a challenging practice and many practitioners spend several years at this level. In any school or tradition of Yoga we may rely only on a teacher for guidance, safety, and ones ego perception. In the latest episode with my knees five years back I had to accept that many postures such as #padmasana or lotus were going to be taken out of my playlist for good. That was not hard to accept but I still ask the questions: *Why no one or my teacher at the time mention a safe, right way to get into such postures before? *Did they just want to give me postures and if I could do it regardless then keep going? *Why it matter so much about posture over healthy joints, muscles, and breath control? On that day I was blessed to remember the quote if you broke with Yoga then you fix with Yoga. I could barely walk; however, I bounced back into practice and teaching on the following day. I did what I could, modified for my needs, focused on my verbal communication during classes. Finally, the practice was mine and I was the teacher on my own mat! Six months of those routines, a simple anti-inflammatory diet and consistency brought back the joy of exploring postures I once thought were gone. I did not take the doctor's advice for surgery, I never saw a physiotherapist or any other rehabilitation practitioners. Until today the practice of Yoga continues to amaze me with its healing and therapeutic powers. It is a medicine for the human body and mind. p.s: I must admit to you the down point of the story... I became a little stubborn when it came to reaching out different modalities of healing and rehabilitation. The whole of me yells that Yoga and Ayurveda have it SO much for this human experience.

25.01.2022 Breath-control can change our life!!! Often I see experienced Yoga practitioners who find breath control a very challenging practice. Surely it is!! Its soothing for the agitated mind to be lost in distractions. ... To work with the breath we need focus and intention. The breath practice has marvellously change my life, it lights up consciousness. Since some years, I only share Yoga and Meditation as breathing practices, it gives me the opportunity to welcome everyone into the art! We all have our breath. This mysterious common denominator which bonds us into oneness Life force #prana that makes living possible. REMEMBER, BREATH changes your world #breathe #breathwork #breathinbreathout #pranayama #yogateacher An image from our time roof practices in #varanasi #india last 2019. Oh delight!

24.01.2022 We draw upon the breath to focus the mind, for years we move the body. Practices that are NOT there for us to achieve anything but simply to encounter, to remember what we already are and have!! The practice is beautiful and for everyone and anyBODY. If sounds too complicated, if your teacher seems to complicate things... please know that you or your teacher havent come across Yoga yet! #staysimple #practiceyoga ... #connect #expandconsciousness #transform #embrace #dontworry Inspiramos a respiração para focar a mente; durante anos movemos o corpo. Práticas que NÃO existem para conseguirmos algo, mas simplesmente para encontrarmos e relembramos o que já somos e temos !! A prática é linda, e para todos e qualquer um. Se parece muito complicado, se seu professor parece complicar as coisas ... saiba que você ou seu professor ainda não se depararam com o Yoga.

24.01.2022 It wasnt about learning and improving. It was about letting go of what I never needed.

24.01.2022 So many ways to try to express the inexpressible...A exploration that is unique to each individual. A practice that cultivates a place of inner quiet and discovery. A magnificent, magical, wild, delightful road to the higher self! #yoga #internationalyogaday #practiceyogachangeyourworld

16.01.2022 Coming back from 3 weeks plunge in the Indian forest with brothers, sisters and Baba. Below the sharing of words from one of my journals in India this very recent time Words that came to me when I tried to possibly explain the experience of our retreat days. Immersed in the Mothers wild nature embrace. We bathe mind, body and heart. A cleanse through sitting meditation, pranayama, asanas practices and Satsang. Sitting comfortably, before dawn, the strength is within the s...pine. The silent gentle vibration of seemingly asleep forest is there. Baba Clive, us and all beings wrapped by a blanket of stars and the penetrating Moons light in the vast ocean space. The dawn of the day, the aliveness of living creatures. Intoxicated with Prana Shakti I walk to breakfast. Feeling it all, walking light in this awake dream of a brand-new day The rhythms of breath and body unrevealing their dance through the asanas. After the silence We come back to words and languages dualities. Walking to the forests park where we sit, the monkeys pause, the birds calling. Together we all seem to be gathering to receive nondual simplest Truth that is channelled through the words of the GuruOur beloved Baba. The senses are open, at times the eyes closed, we not longer need to understand words. The arrows of Divine Truth pierce the body, mind and heart and it is making its way into the Atman. The Satsang now plays and there is no one talking With the open eyes I see, I feel, I recognise I have always been carried by The Mist of the Love Mother. Walking away, quietly into the next moment. The spell of this precious Mist embrace. Balancing on our hands, bending the body backwards and very little forward, we once again got taken by the vibrating body/vehicle of the soul, ever so supple and light. Baba calls for another Shiva&Shakti immersion- Pranayama at dusk. When me isnt there, I am the vastness within space and sounds, I am the blanket of stars and the Moon, I dont need to return, I just got home, I am the ocean, I know who I am, I am you. See more

16.01.2022 A couple of throwback photos of me practicing in Brasil. Sometime ago, receiving some juicy brother love strong adjustments It is a bit that comes to mind and heart when I go back 6 years ago today when I lost my brother. A sudden car accident and in a split moment my colourful world went black and white. There isn’t any poetry in that, it is the way it felt. ... As an #advaitavedanta student I knew death belongs to life but to feel it in my heart and bones was a wild process. I knew that this event could change my life forever and it did. I don’t think we fully acknowledge life without death... it’s like they belong to each other. I don’t think we can polish our ego without surrender. I knew too that I was losing him to the heavens, losing him to the vastness of it all and losing him to a sweet home that we all destined to return. So I was blessed with that knowing. If you ask how does it feel for me these days? I am so grateful, I love getting up to this life, my night dreams are surreal, I hate wasting time in things or conversations that don’t matter, I know we can’t replace anyone, we learn to adapt, patiently loving the transformation. I feel a certainty that there is no end to our soul journey. I’m loving life here on Earth. To my determined, passionate, strong, talent, delightful handsome brother, to my hero: I know we will always meet again And to you reading this: with unlimited compassion and faith stay open. Keep growing, be yourself. Enjoy your journey because it’s a hell of a ride

04.01.2022 Another sweet bunch of freshly new Yoga teachers go out there today. What a lovely start to an infinite learning curve. 7 years into my career as I teacher I wanted to drop out. I felt yoga teaching to be boring, repetitive, dogmatic, yoga communities arguing over whos yoga is best and a place of too many spiritual egos. I wanted to get out completely... if I could only then delete that Yoga teacher label. I consider then becoming a hair dresser or a makeup artist, h...ave fun with my work and make people look prettier. I could practice yoga for myself, surf and disconnect from all that becoming b$u&h it. On the peak of my disappointment with teaching a quote from Buddha came about to save me we not here to do what we love, we here to love what we do! That came to my ears as words from the Divine... I tuned into this truth and I knew then I had to keep on going. I had to find the service, the Karma Yoga in that action. Back then my positive resolve or Sunkalpa became to Share yoga with who needs Yoga. Nowadays my conclusion is that all humans benefit from nuances of Yoga or Ayurveda. That this practices are medicines to humans body and mind and a powerful tool to remember who we really are beyond the body and mind. Teaching yoga is a service like any other... not a special service but and essential one. On my mentorship program for new teachers or uninspired teachers we go through spark up the love for the practice, the understanding of Yoga as a healing science. about our responsibility with our body and mind rather then any forced dogma, discipline or gymnastics performances. We practically look into safe teachings and the danger of certain postures when badly taught. New teachers committee with a teaching schedule !yep, your first students may be your parents, friends, your partner, and all the people who you care about. You want Yoga for them right? on the program I go from being strictly traditional to encourage you as a new teacher to rebel on your own skin, to find what authenticity could be. In comments....

03.01.2022 Yoga Day!!! So grateful for this epic exploration in life being call to the path of yoga is grace #everyday #everything .

03.01.2022 Inverted positions that are assumed in yoga alter the blood flow (including lymphatic drainage) and flow of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). If there is increased blood flow to the area, there will be increased bioavailability of oxygen and glucosethe two most important metabolic substrates for the brain. It follows then that cells bathed in a solution that is rich in factors required for the creation of neurotransmitters (like norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin) will b...e better able to produce these chemicals. However, its the emotional and psychological journey that makes inversion practice so valuable and enriching. Psychologically, inversions and arm balances can break down some personal barriers. When we approach this type of practice we realize that it is consistent mindful dedication without ambition. Inversions can also help develop patience, focus, and listening skills. This work through the asanawhether physically, visually, or energetically, EVEN AT THE PREPARATORY WORK STAGE (just as beneficial and easily accommodating)IS GREAT STIMULATION FOR THE MIND. #healing #yoga #dobeyoga #yogaishealing #yoguini #yogatransformation #yogateaching #secondseries #ashtanga @ Sydney, Australia
