'Yoga is the settling of the mind into silence. When the mind has settled, we are established in our essential nature, which is unbounded consciousness. Our essential nature is usually overshadowed by the activity of the mind.' -The Yoga Sutras of Pantañjali #sutras #yogasutras #yogamagic #pantanjali #yogaquotes #yogathoughts #yogaphilosophy #yogapose #yogastudent #yogalife #yogaeverywhere #yogaeveryday #mindsettlements #mindfulness #consciousness #essentialnature #yogaforthemind #yogaforthebody #yogalove #yogi #instagramyoga #yogisofinstagram #igyogacommunity

How do you perceive yourself and your surrounding? Perspective is key in creating a reality you wish to live. Everything is related to how you see the world and interact with it. ... We all have some sort of emotional blockages, but our job is to let them go and ease into a perception that promotes well-being and potential. Take time every day to do something that empowers you personally, and elevates the world around you! #manifestation #perception #potential #motivationalmonday #selflove #selfcare #empowerment #feeling #magnificence #simplicity #mantra #yogi #yogainspiration #yogabeliefs #yogaasana #yogagirl # #presence #love #yogaeveryday #yogaeverywhere #igyogacommunity #igyoga #mtlyogacommunity

What do you do on days when anxiety knocks at your door? How do you shift your energy? (Tell me, I really want to know ) On my end, somedays I just need to repeat to myself that the feeling shall pass. ... However, on other days, free flow shifts my energy like nothing else. Free flowing is simply moving and breathing with impulse and intuition. It's literally a moving meditation that enables presence and surrender. Feeling, sensing and listen to all that the body and mind has to say. The key is to have no expectations while accepting all that is present. Personally, I also put on my favorite music and light some incense to stimulate all my senses, and help me 'get out of my head'. Try it and let me know how it feels! Just let yourself move, and feel the air move through you. #mentalhealth #breath #breathe #energyshift #feeltheair #yoga #flow #movement #feeling #mantra #freeflow #yogaflow #presence #love #yogi #yogalifestyle #yogaeveryday #yogaeverywhere #yogastudent #yogainstructor #yogainspiration #humanemotions #instagramyoga #igyogacommunity #igyoga #mtlyoga

Do you pay attention to your Drishti? Drishti is the yogic gaze; the withdrawal of distractions, a still and steady focal point, which enables inward focus. Drishti is what brings every body and every mind in a still posture and a moving meditation. ... Try going into an inversion or balancing posture without a steady gaze, it's pretty challenging! If ever you feel like your practice isn't 'progressing', or you often get caught up with feelings of self-criticism and irritation; find your Drishti. It is such a simple but necessary yogic component to find greater ease in your practice. #drishti #yogicgaze #practice #focus #selfcare #breathe #practice #yogapractice #stillness #movingmeditation #selflove #yoga #yogastudent #yogainstructor #yogalove #yogagirl #yogainspiration #yogini #yogaeverywhere #yogaeveryday #yogaforthemind #yogaforthebody #yogaforthesoul #mtlyoga #igyogacommunity #igyoga #yogisofinstagram
