My partner is pretty alt and cool with it all, but my beloved baby

brother (okay, he's 19, but he is the baby of the family

and utterly precious) is coming for a three month visit starting tomorrow.

 

I am currently doing some asanas and visualizations several times

a day, for some intense change I am working through...

I guess my lil' brother will ask me questions if he wants to know more!

He knows there isn't much meat in the kitchen, I warned him about that

repeatedly.

 

Lousy weather. :-)

Sat Nam,

 

I went through that a little bit! At first because I was so enthusiastic, I

was telling everyone and yes, I was getting the furled brow. But then I

realized, that it was more of attraction than promotion, and that if I

started to really understand what I was doing and how it was changing in my

life, that it would show. To where people would ask, what has changed, and

that was much more of an invitiation to speak of my experience and they were

more open to listening. So after my initial exuberance, I calmed down.

 

Hope this helps! Hari Kaur

hi--

i guess this question is directed more at the beginners out there: do you

ever feel weird trying to explain to your family or friends why you suddenly

started taking cold showers and drinking yogi teas and doing all this goofy

looking stuff? When I first started, I was so excited that I would try to

explain it to everyone but kept getting all these weird looks, like...oh,

she's joined a cult.

How is your weather?

peace,

jessie

Dear Jessie,

 

I learned a long time ago not to try to explain what I'm doing to people

UNLESS they ask. Then I say as little as possible until I'm sure they

are really interested. Its hard when you are excited about something

you find so wonderful, but believe me it's far better to wait until

sincere interest comes along. Someone who is open to what you have to

say and may actually make use of it. At the least to be supportive and

you don't waste your energy on explanations people aren't willing or

ready to hear. It's nobody's business but your own.

 

Keep your energy for your yoga practice and the good things in your life

!!!!

 

Love and blessings,

Avtar

Dear Jessie,

 

There is a power and satisfaction in keeping your practice to yourself. The

fun part is when people notice how you have changed and ask you what you are

doing. Then you can tell them because the asked. If they don't ask they

may not want to know.

 

Many blessings and Sat Nam,

 

Gururattan Kaur
