Appointment Scheduling Software | Online Scheduling Program. Mooji. Mooji (Anthony Paul Moo-Young) is a disciple of the great Advaita master, Sri H.W.L. Poonja or Papaji, as he is affectionately known by devotees. Mooji was born on 29 January 1954 in Port Antonio, Jamaica. He later moved to Brixton, London where he lived for over 40 years. Here, Grace brought an encounter with a Christian mystic that caused Mooji to ‘walk out of his life’—an expression he uses to convey the profundity of that meeting. There was no longer a sense of personal autonomy. In his own words he says, ‘I felt I was sitting on the lap of God. A deep peace and trust in the Supreme arose inside my heart and has remained to this day’. Intrigued by this major shift in perception and wanting to merge fully in Truth, Mooji discovered the teachings of the great Indian saint, Sri Ramakrishna, whose utterances satisfied his heart deeply.

Recognising Mooji’s radiance, people from various parts of the world began to approach him in search of the direct experience of Truth.

Hip Openers = one of my favorite reasons for practicing yoga asana :) I don’t know why anyone would dread hip openers. I like them so much I often sit cross-legged (lotus or half lotus) in my chair at work. This is a short, but sweet hip opening sequence from Yoga Journal’s Live Mag channel. I just completed it, and feel very, very good. A nice sequence when you only have 20 minutes.

TaraStilesYoga's Channel. Strala. ME  [after 4 straight days of no yoga, bad hotel conference food, sitting, bloating, and grumpy]: “Ugh, I just need Yoga.” [caption id=”” align=”aligncenter” width=”360” caption=”Is this yoga?”] [/caption] Yoga. The all-powerful, transformative practice that is the generator for the source of my life-energy.

 The cultivator of my chi, or whatever you want to call it. The sacred place of comfort located in a thin, invisible layer between my purple Jade mat and the soles of my feet and the palms of my hands. The navigation system of my breath, my movement, my calmness, and clarity. I have a problem. I’ve just finished a week of work busy-ness, extra-long hours of sitting in conferences, listening to good speeches, listening to bad speeches, business card exchanges, and small talk, and I haven’t had time to practice my Yoga. Over the past few days, my once fluid and lithe body and mind have begun to congeal into imagined-flabbiness, irritability, and overall dysfunction.

Linda's yoga journey | ramblings of a yoga subversive. About Me. Leila Sadeghee is a mentor, Anusara-Inspired yoga teacher and therapeutic bodyworker based in Fitzrovia, London, with well over a decade’s experience in guiding people to physical, mental, and emotional freedom. Her teaching is inspirational, bio-mechanically savvy, supremely fun, and driven by a deep commitment to serve people in opening to their highest potential, both on and off the mat. In her private work, through awareness techniques, bodywork, yoga asana, and deep listening, she assists people in doing the sweet work of coming home to authenticity and empowerment, one revelation at a time.

Students and clients continually marvel at how much freer and lighter they feel in their bodies, how much more aware they are in life, and how powerfully graceful they feel in facing life’s challenges. Serving people in opening to the fullness of their lives is Leila’s greatest honour, and a limitless pleasure. But not in an un-grounded way. In a better at living life overall way. About The Author. My name is Daljit Kaur and I belong to Panjab, a northern state of India.

Given a choice I would have preferred to be a doctor but I was destined to do post graduation in Chemistry. Thereafter I studied to become a qualified teacher. My teaching career was subsequently cut short due to family commitments and my various health problems. I have faced multiple health problems and I came out as a winner.

My passion with yoga and my resolve to share my experiences about my yoga practice has evolved over a period of time into this website. The purpose of sharing my story with you is to motivate you to adopt yoga for better health. My Health Problems My first health problem started in April 1996 when I had to get operated for gall bladder stones. Thereafter, in Nov 03, my health deteriorated rapidly and I was bed ridden due to severe osteoporosis, ankylosing and cervical spondylitis. My Yoga Journey I love doing yoga and prefer eating healthy and nutritious vegetarian diet.
