Finding Stillness

Recently I returned from a two-month trip to Mysore, India. Far away from my normal life, from daily problems, from my well-known routine. I have been returning to India every year to focus on my yoga practice, studying with my teacher, Sharathji. Every time I go, it is a little different, a new experience in its own way. Each time, it feels like my life is on “pause mode”, like the whole world is turning, but I am standing still. Everyone else is continuing with their life and I am suspended somewhere in between. I was looking at how I can use this feeling of stillness, and where can it take me.

THE PRACTICE OF TAKING REST

We have reached the time of year when summer has left us for good. Unfortunately, both on the calendar and off. The shorter days, cooler mornings, and often long patches of rain are upon us. But it is also a time of new beginnings, the beginning of Autumn, the beginning of the school year, the return to work after our holidays. In the perfect world we should all be well-rested after our holidays, and return with new passion and energy to our daily life. But is this always the truth? Do we still know how to truly take rest? Today, I wanted to have a closer look at the practice of taking rest.
