Candlelight Yin

𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐇𝐌𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐘𝐀 🌬️

Contradictory to the object of “being rich”, the fourth yama is the practice of 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 and 𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞.

Through brahmacharya, you choose discipline as a means to become closer to source.

𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: the act of being aware of how much you are taking in; mentally, emotionally, physically.

𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: through mindful consumption, you understand where and how much to allocate your energy.

𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬: In understanding your consumptions and energy management, you can begin to show up in your relationships with deeper neutrality; through boundaries and noticing your attachments.

𝐒𝐞𝐭 𝐋𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐬: Look at the internal space made when you create a “ceiling” for your external stimuli.

𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐬: Once you have molded room for ease of the mind through discipline, you can begin to sit in the peace you have provided yourself. Finding less friction in letting go of short term stimuli and moving into 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞.

𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Setting limits requires patience and 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞. You 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 to show up everyday, knowing that they will not all be easeful. You 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 over and over again, understanding the goal in mind. 𝐓𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟, 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝.

𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡, 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭.

Calling all yogis! Take a look at this sweet version of chaturanga with @slowflowem 👁️💫

When returning to your practice, your mat, over and over again-it can feel nourishing to try something new. Whether this be your 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 chaturanga or for some of you, your 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐭𝐡 chaturanga, different variations can offer clarity to where you are in your practice and what you may be looking for in that specific season.

As yogis, you will always return to your roots, but maybe take a moment to try this flowy variation to your usual.

Let us know what you think! 🤲🏼🪷

New merchy on the way….

New SALES to follow 👁️

Keep your eyes open.

Especially all ya jai members out there 🧡

Third in the line of yamas, 𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐲𝐚.
Many of you are familiar with the act of non-stealing from childhood; to 𝐧𝐨𝐭 take what is 𝐧𝐨𝐭 yours.

How can you reflect on this from a 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐫 perspective?

Take for example, 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐠𝐚 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞.

You show up on time, you sit on your mat quietly, you listen to the teacher when they begin. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞’𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞.

When you land in space for your sadhana, does your mind cloud with self judgement, self doubt? If you are “doing this well enough” or “performing as you should”? 𝐃𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐛 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞.

Beyond your mat, asteya is more than not physically stealing. It is to abandon the very 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 or 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞 to possess or take anything-whether it is material, relationship, achievement, success, time-that 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 primarily belong to you, through force or deceit or exploitation, by deeds or words or thoughts.

To fully embody this, it is important to look 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 of the want. Does this arise out of greed? A sense of lack? Powerlessness? Out of comparing yourself?

Just be conscious, aware of the body, the mind in space.
Show up for yourself, again and again.

𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐓𝐇.

Guided by the Yoga Sutras, 𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐲𝐚 encourages you to speak, think and act with integrity.
The word 𝐬𝐚𝐭 means, “that which exists, that which is.”
Through this second 𝐲𝐚𝐦𝐚, you see and communicate things as what they are, not as you wish them to be.
It can be difficult to move through life this way, to move past your conditioned mind, your beliefs and past experiences.
Understanding that everyone’s truth will be different. That what you think is true now, may not be true later.
Satya pulls us to stay open to the truth of this 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

Something to consider, is when practicing the 𝐲𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐬, you understand the grand encompassing of them.
While you embody satya, you are also applying the first yama, 𝐚𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐬𝐚; non violence.
When approaching an experience, you look that your words, your actions and thoughts are not harming 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 you run directly into truth.

𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐲𝐚 is the grounding solace of knowing that what is, is simply what is.

You are alive. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞.
You create your experience. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞.
You can return back to yourself, over and over again. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞.

Don’t fall victim to the stereotype that because you practice yoga, you can’t become angry, overwhelmed or upset.
You are 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧.
And this is why yoga offers you these practices, because it is no secret that to experience-is to feel it 𝐚𝐥𝐥.
So you sit in your tall seat to move through the heat of change, of what you feel out of control with. This way you can move forward with a clearer mind and a stable center.

@allishakti + @morwinayla demonstrate a piece of kundalini kriya that touches on the fire within you.
What to do with it, how to feel it...and then use the energy you have sculpted within.

In yoga, there are 𝟖 limbs.
These limbs, much like your own or that of a tree, provide inherent importance to your own thriving.
One of these limbs; the 𝐲𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐬. A set of principles to guide you, to use as a foundation as you walk through life.

Here we dive into 𝐀𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐬𝐚, the first of the yamas.
The moral discipline of non-violence in thought, in word, in action.
This practice is meant to cultivate empathy and mindfulness within ourselves and towards others. Creating a safe space that is inherently based in love, everywhere we go.
Learning to redirect ourselves in negative thought, derogatory speech and even physical harm.

𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬? 𝐓𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭?

Remember the word, 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞.
That’s all this is, a space to practice.
There is room for human error, for your honest mistakes, for your bad days, for your worst self.
These presets are meant to be a steady guide, a place to come back to center.
Not striving for perfection but, running towards your best self-anytime you can-every time you can!

this is what we do

we show up in the world, to rediscover our true nature, as students; always learning, always growing, always changing

but once thing remains the same

the practice is liberating, the practice is freeing - no matter how REAL the “real world” gets, you always know where to come back home 🤎

as teachers, as parents, as professionals, as a community, may we always live in the mood of being a student, recognizing that there is always something new to feel - may we forever be open to the novel magic within each day, each moment, each breath 🤲

how does it feel to practice alongside a jai teacher?✨✨

this lovely lady!

Ahimsa (the first yama in yogic foundational principles) is often understood as non-harming or non-violence. But it’s not solely about how we treat others—it’s also about how we treat ourselves. In a world that constantly pushes us to go faster, do more and work on the externals, practicing ahimsa means embracing compassion, gentleness and mindfulness toward our own bodies and spirits.

It’s about listening to our healing intuition and choosing to follow it. It means giving ourselves permission to rest and letting go of the need to always be productive. It can also meaning giving yourself the extra push of love and courage in trying something new and beneficial. True self-care aligns with ahimsa because it allows us to nurture ourselves in ways that promote balance and well-being. By carving out time for stillness, reflection and choice, we can truly honor our needs without judgment or guilt.
