Dear students: I am going back to Mysore to practice with my dear teacher and Guru Sharath Jois for two months (December and January). We will have Sergio fully supporting our Mysore program until I'm back. I hope you will enjoy practicing with him.

Trust the teacher that is there for you. There is a tendency to think that the more teachers you go to, the more knowledge comes, but most knowledge comes through practice when you stay. My teacher was present through my ups and downs. 8 years of practice with one teacher every day, in the beautiful community that she created - @ashtangacascais was like a second home. Many stages of life and practice spent there and she was always present - to keep me going and believing, inspiring me to stay present too. Even though I developed a strong connection with the practice itself from the beginning, my path would have not been the same without her. Yoga Tradition is based on a teacher-student relation and I cannot imagine it in any other way. I deeply respect, admire and love my teacher.

Tomorrow take rest. Some insights for this New Moon: remember we don't practice with the purpose of making progress in the sequence of asana, neither to perform or proove any physical ability to anyone, neither for a personal achievement. That is not yoga. If you can do a more difficult looking pose does not make your practice better or more meaningful. Otherwise it would be called circus, acrobatics or fitness show. We have each others company in this process which is a blessing, but each one is doing their own work with their Self, each one is different and your practice is good as it is from the beginning if it is done properly. We want to be healthy in the body and mind. Only then one can find the calmness, feel more stable, more in harmony with thoughts and actions, fully present. We don't practice only when everything is successful in life neither only when we suffer. We bring stability into our life through this practice of breathing so we can deal with more ease with our daily duties and responsibilities, unexpected or expected changes, take decisions, be courageous to follow dreams. With more clarity and a more real perception comes the freedom from obligations and expectations as well as appreciation of the present moment. We become happy with what we have. Enjoy the amazing Sunny days this week and a little longer sleep tommorrow 😉See you on Friday! 🤗♥️ #Moondaytomorrow #newmoon #takerestonmoondays #patanjaliyoga #mysorezurich #ashtangayoga #ashtangayogaisnotfitness #yogainzurich #zurich #ilovezurich

What if you have pain and you don't feel like practicing because you cannot do "everything" that you used to do anymore? If you are able to listen to your body when it gives you signs and if you are able to back off before an injury occurs, if you practice ahimsa (non-violence and love) to yourself and do a modified practice without attachment to what you used to do - you are able to let go of your ego and here is when the spiritual practice begins. Pain might change your yoga practice deep from inside and may be a great opportunity for life learning and discovery. If you can do a modified practice - you are practicing yoga and become free of linking your value to achievements. Practicing this way one can feel fulfilled and allow space for healing. Real changes can then happen within you. . . . #yourvalueisnotlinkedtoyourachievements #mysorestyle #ashtangayoga #mysorezurich #practiceeveryday #letgoofyourego #yoga24hours #practiceandalliscoming #yogainzurich #ahimsa #santosha #meltswim 📷by @mirtayogaphotography

Our dear Guru and teacher Sharath about the importance of understanding the yoga method, getting to know the system, about how we should practice and the way we should learn this system. He talks here about yoga as a holistic method, as a lifestyle and not just stretching or bending the body as its often misunderstood. Worth reading.

Moving to the synchronized sound of breathing. First of all I was impressed that so many people made it to the 7:00 AM class, it was the fullest of all 3 sessions. Most of them never had an Ashtanga class before, but the sound in the room was just beautiful and so free. It warmed up not only the room but also my heart. I love the people of Zürich ❤️They love Yoga. Feeling grateful for the chance to share 🙏. #mysorezurich #rons24houryogaday #yogainzurich #IntroductiontoAshtangayogaforbeginners #ashtangayogainzurich #itcanhappenfromthebeginning
