"If you succeed in giving priority within you to your higher Self, then you are already participating in the cosmic work of Christ, of God Himself. Yes, this is something mysterious, an activity that takes place in another sphere, most often without our knowledge. When you are absorbed in your daily tasks, you do not know what your spirit is doing within you. One day, perhaps, once your brain is sufficiently developed, you will become conscious of the work your spirit carries out in the universe. For the time being, it is essential to re-establish your link with it. And this is precisely what your sole concern must be during your meditations: to calm the inhabitants within you in order to reunite with your higher Self, which is the quintessence of God Himself." ~Omraam

Powerful Secret to Access your Higher Self

 

An extraordinarily powerful yet simple practice to access the Wisdom of your Higher Self.

The sun is the best restaurant in the world, which is why we go to visit it each morning. But in order to be served food there, you need gold –not gold in your pockets, which is of no use, but gold in your brain. And when the restaurateur, the solar spirit, sees that you have a few gold coins within you, you are immediately sent the most succulent dishes. Otherwise, you remain there yawning, scratching yourself and sighing, ‘I don’t feel anything, I’m not receiving anything, there is no point coming to this restaurant.’ You wait for service, but others are served, and you are not. You are told, ‘Wait! First go and get some gold. When you have it, we will serve you.’ To have some gold means to understand divine wisdom, to appreciate it, love it, and search for it. When the spirits of the sun see that you have this gold, they immediately take care of you. ~Omraam

The Divine Source

 

 

“It has been said ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ Yes, because this love for God encompasses everything: health, beauty, light, intelligence, power and freedom. If we love God with all our being, if we place God first, if we make daily efforts – three, four, ten times a day – to slip out of ourselves and melt into this immensity from which we derive life, happiness, strength and every blessing, we will understand that no creature deserves our love more than God. Yes, because no one – not our parents, spouse, children or friends – can give us something so essential, no one. They can give a few objects and smiles, but these in no way compare to the life and blessings that come from the divine Source.“

 

~Omraam

Lemon Drop Coconut Snowballs

 

 

Lemon Drop Coconut Snowballs are delish little bites of bliss! Enjoy for snack, holiday party dessert, or pre/post workout boost.  I served them at my recent Manifesting Your Deepest Heart's Desire Yoga Workshop...  always a hit. Without further ado let's get to the recipe...

 

Lemon Drop Coconut Snowballs (makes approximately 24 snowballs)

• 2 cups raw Cashews
• 2 cups unsweetened flaked coconut separated into 1 1/2 c & 1/2 c)
• 3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 3 rounded Tbsp (or to taste) raw honey or maple syrup
• 1 1/2 tsp vanilla powder or extract
• 2-3 Tbsp coconut oil
• 3 tbsp lemon zest

Place cashews, 1 1/2 cups coconut, lemon juice, honey, coconut oil and vanilla in food processor and pulse until mixture is sticky when pressed together (for a little more texture) or until a sticky mound forms (for a smoother texture). Remove and form into small balls. Combine the leftover 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut and 3 tbsp lemon zest by fluffing with a fork. Roll balls in mixture to coat. Place balls in freezer or fridge to set. Serve directly out of freezer or fridge for more bite, or allow to soften at room temperature for a moist, chewy texture. Store leftovers in fridge/freezer in tightly closed container. Please note: measurements are fairly flexible so feel free to play around according to your taste/texture preferences. Enjoy!

Silence

 

S I L E N C E

"Silence has three gates to pass.
One is the most peripheral: speaking.
Speak only telegraphically.
Speak the essential and you will be surprised that 
almost ninety per cent of your talking is useless;
only ten per cent will do.
And you will also be surprised — 
that ten per cent will become more effective
because that ninety per cent,
that unnecessary burden
is no more there.

Words become more pregnant
when you don't go round-about,
when you go directly.
And if one has to be telegraphic
one has to go directly.
That's why you can write a long letter
but it doesn't have that effect —
a small telegram is more effective [...]

All the great scriptures of the world are telegraphic.
That is the meaning of the sanskrit word sutra —
just a hint has been given but very pregnant.
This is the first step:
be telegraphic, speak the essential.
And drop the non-essential
and then the second step.
Think only the essential
and you will be surprised.
Ninety-nine per cent is unessential;
only one percent maybe is essential.
That too I say maybe, perhaps;
otherwise it is all holy cow dung.

So drop thinking unnecessarily
about unnecessary things [...]

So drop useless thinking
and you will be saving so much energy
that the third step can be taken.
the third step is the most subtle:
feel only the essential.
And if you come to the essential
then there is only love.
Anger, greed, lust —
all these things are non-essential.
They are parasites, they are exploiting you.
When you come to the essential only love remains.
And when your heart is only full of love
you can enter into the very centre of silence.

These three things have to be passed:
the outer part of the mind — talking;
the inner part of the mind — thinking;
and the innermost part of the mind — feeling.
And when you have passed all these three
then there is silence.
And that silence is the door to the divine."

— OSHO, The Sound of One Hand Clapping, Chapter #19 - 19 March 1981 pm

Part II Benefits & Science of Pranayama (Breathing Practices) in Yoga

 

Painting by Juliane Porter

 

Part II

As discussed in Part I, Pranayama, in Yoga, is the practice of controlling the breath, which is the source of our pranah, or vital life force.  If we control the breath, we control the mind.  Stated differently, fast breathing = restless mind; still breath = still mind and clear perception.  When the breath is still, the mind is still.

Pranayama, the constriction of airways via controlled breathing techniques, leads to higher levels of CO2 which improves O2 delivery throughout the tissues of the body and dilates brain capillaries - creating an incredible health cascade. Without further ado, let's look further into the incredible benefits of Pranayama Practice, the fascinating science behind it, and learn a simple Pranayama technique we can employ anywhere, anytime to induce a calm clear disposition.

 

Ray Peat Findings

Ray Peat made several additional observations of Pranayama and it's resulting increase of CO2's affect on the body:

• CO2 has an electronic affect on hemoglobin allowing for the release of Oxygen into tissues. 
• CO2 structures water in the cell eliminating edema (water retention) in the cell.  As CO2 restores order within the cell nerve cells are stabilized increasing the state of calm in the body.
• CO2 inhibits lactic acid formation.
• High levels of CO2 strengthens bones/leads to bone mineralization.
• CO2 optimizes energy production in the mitochondria.
• CO2 is a major regulator of metabolism and is also involved in bronchodilation and muscle relaxation.
• CO2 leads to higher levels of hydrochloric acid
• CO2 protects from lung injuries.

 Simple Pranayama for Anyone from Beginners to Experienced Practitioners

This simple Pranayama technique is wonderful to calm down prior to a performance, speech or simply reduce feelings of anxiety.  As with all pranayama, it is based on the aforementioned science that slowing down breathing will calm the mind (in addition to the dozens of additional benefits).  

Take a deep breath

Inhale for 3 counts.  Exhale for 3 counts.  Repeat 3x.

Inhale for 4 counts.  Exhale for 4 counts.  Repeat 3x.

Inhale for 6 counts.  Exhale for 6 counts.  Repeat 3x.

Inhale for 8 counts.  Exhale for 8 counts.  Repeat 3x.

Inhale for 10 counts.  Exhale for 10 counts.  Repeat 3x.

Inhale for 12 counts.  Exhale for 12 counts.  Repeat 3x.

 

And that's it!  Change your breath.  Change your life!

 

Do you practice Pranayama? What is your experience of the benefits? Please feel free to share any questions and comments you have.
