Which style of Yoga are you?

I was exposed to Yoga very young because Yoga was everywhere in India. I saw the likes of my uncles and my father do it in the 1980s while I was growing up in Kolkata, India. And then I was sent to the Yoga school myself where I first learned 10 static Yoga postures, hold […]

Letting go

Once in a while when I notice my drawers and cupboards begin to overflow, I’ll start pulling out old unwanted things and throwing them out. These “cleansing episodes” always leave me feeling somehow lighter and happier. This is in contrast to my other half who often refuse to part with his belongings. To put it […]

Keep that lymph flowing

Yoga is often associated with improving flexibility, building strength, relieving stress, focusing the mind, among many other benefits. Hence, I was intrigued by the topic on our lymphatic system where yoga helps in stimulating toxin and waste removal.

迎接挑战，勇往直前

今天是RYT第9天。来参加这个培训课程，最担心的地方就是体式的指令。我个性较内向，不善言辞，特别不自信，特别害怕当众发言，讲话或者说指令的时候声音都在颤抖，对我来说真的是一个特别大的挑战。不过，当初我决定来学习的时候，就已经下决心要迎接这个挑战。我喜欢瑜伽，想与喜欢瑜伽或以后来向我学习瑜伽的人一起分享瑜伽，我相信自己可以做到。每天练习，每天进步一点点，慢慢地让自己变强，慢慢地建立自己的自信心。另外，今天练习倒立，终于顺利把双腿往上举了，虽然摇摇晃晃、坚持的时间不长，但已经有进步，起码已经上去，第一次头倒立，心中乐开了花啦！其实每天也就练习10分钟左右，时间并不长。接下来还要继续练习，练稳了之后再尝试远离墙面，克服恐惧。 Liang Simin 2018年8月中文成都YTTC

Huh, hunch?

To be honest I was a little shocked to know I have a slight hunch, as Jessica pointed out during one of our sessions. Looking in the mirror, I observed the inward rounding of my shoulders. Over the next few days, I often caught myself with shoulders scrunched up to my ears and compression in […]

Liang Simin 2018年8月成都中文YTTC Day 8

今天是RYT200第8天，课程已经过去了三分之一，每天都还是全身酸痛的状态，但却很享受，因为我们每一天都在进步，这种感觉真的太棒了！头倒立虽然还上不去，但已经慢慢找到感觉，再多加练习，多点耐心，我想我是可以做到的。和前几天做的头倒立想比，已经有所进步。加油，不管做什么体式，都如此。在TMY学习的这8天，感觉每天都有新的挑战，不管是体能上或是对个人的胆量,都是非常大的挑战。但我知道，我一次比一次好。
