I read a sad piece article a few weeks ago about how hard it is to make real friends as an adult, but that actually runs counter to my experience, largely thanks to yoga. I’ve made many permanent friends in almost a decade that I have been practicing, my yearly trips to Mysore, classes that I conduct, and just hanging out at the studio. These aren’t “situational friends,” either, but people with whom I can have deep discussions, if the need for such a thing actually ever manifests. Adulthood places limitations on your social life, but yoga can remove them. . . . . . #yoga #yogi #yogamen #yogadudes #yogalove #yogainspiration #yogaeverydamnday #yogaforlife #yogaformen #mensyoga #boysofyoga #yogaph #yogamanila #yogaphilippines #igersmanila #intermediateseries #ashtanga #ashtangi #ashtangayoga #suptavajrasana #backbends #grammerph #pinoygram #fit #fitspo #strong #madaboutyoga #igyoga #instayoga #yogaeverywhere (at Siargao Island Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch11FqHJ7_8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

These are three essential actions to consider while practicing #krounchasana to make of it a deeper expression with more space and freedom for the energy to flow : 1️⃣👉🏽 Ensure your thigh of the lower leg is rolling out and so the calves are also rolling out, this will ensure the proper alignment of the knee and as a consequence will create more space for the correspondent sit-bone to have weight so the hips are leveled instead of collapsing towards the sit-bone of the upper leg. 2️⃣👉🏽 use the thoracic breath by engaging Uddhyana Bandha to create more space between the spine, looking for the action of extending the spine before folding forward instead of curving the spine and pressing down. This will avoid to compress the disks keeping #sukham in the posture. 3️⃣👉🏽 move the shoulder blades down (depression of the shoulder blades) which will support the elongation of the spine and at the same time will release the cervical spine from unnecessary tension. #Yogaasana #asanapractice #ashtangavinyasa #intermediateseries #yogatips #yogaisequanimity #luanafarayoga

I've only ever actually managed to grab both ankles together a couple of times unassisted. So I was pretty chuffed this morning when I managed to actually hold them for a fair few seconds! Not exactly comfortably, but I managed to find my breath at least, instead of freaking out! I also nearly catapulted myself at the wall on the way out and then everything started to spin - which was kind of fun 😅!

We are all in our own processes of transition, release and surrender, yet in the midst of such intensity there is a reflection of hope amidst a sea of doubt and disbelief. We will see in the world what we have cultivated within ourselves. Yoga teaches us to have faith in our own ability to change and grow, to know and evolve our own values and literally to become the change we want to see in the world. Accordingly what change we can believe in is a direct reflection of our own strength and grace. . . . . . . #yoga #yogi #yogamen #yogadudes #yogalove #yogainspiration #yogaeverydamnday #yogaforlife #yogaformen #mensyoga #boysofyoga #yogaph #yogamanila #yogaphilippines #igersmanila #intermediateseries #ashtanga #ashtangi #ashtangayoga #yoganidrasana #change #grammerph #pinoygram #fit #fitspo #legbehindthehead #madaboutyoga #igyoga #instayoga #yogaeverywhere (at Ashtanga Yoga Manila) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgPPuWWv4CF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

One of the last practices I did at the shala before #typhoonodette slammed Siargao so bad. Swipe left to see the aftermath. When we receive a tragedy or a shock in our lives, our body tends to go into fight meaning looking for someone to blame or flight meaning we try to calm ourselves with clichés like "everything happens for a reason" response. In these trying times like in yoga, when we feel our body resisting, is to breathe through it. We must become more present than usual. By breathing into our discomfort, we empower ourselves to feel uncomfortable without panicking. Each new breath draws us more deeply into awareness and allows us to move on to the next breath, the next step. We feel sadness, horror, grief, compassion, acceptance, anger, relief, sorrow, and, just for a moment, awareness of it all. One breath at a time. . . . . . #yoga #yogi #yogamen #yogadudes #yogalove #yogainspiration #yogaeverydamnday #yogaformen #yogaforlife #boysofyoga #mensyoga #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #ashtangi #intermediateseries #kapotasana #backbend #siargaoisland #yogaph #yogaphilippines #grammerph #igersmanila #fit #fitspo #pinoygram #helpsiargao #igyoga #instayoga #siargao (at Siargao Island Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/nomnomenclature/p/CYbPN_tPRYz/?utm_medium=tumblr
