Yoga was for a very long time the domain of the males of our species.
Women like Vanda Scaravelli, from Italy, had the courage and self confidence to transform it into somethings that met their own womanly needs.
My yoga is certainly a Womanly Yoga - one that includes pleasure, renewal, creativity and beauty. At the very heart of my yoga is the deepest kind of love.
At the essence of our being is something untouched by life, it cannot be shaped, moulded, twists, diminished. In yoga it is sometimes referred to at Atman. The unchanging essence the illuminates the entire universe.
Remembering that we are apart of the universe and are inseparable from it is one of the outcomes of a yogic life. We are an integral part of all life and all Beingness.
Within the framework of a retreat - away from the machinations of life - there is a real possibility that our consciousness can shift and we can at last fully perceive this connection.
The path is laid out, we simply have to take the first step.
