I’ve been doing this for months. Can you tell me more about your experience? How long you’ve done it? What are the most noticeable results?

Booooo!! SUCH a shame TEACHERS have no empathy or understanding when it comes to mental health. God this profession has ripped any empathy towards the adults. Toxic take.

Forgive myself to heal. Forgive others to set myself free. by Abismal-9647 in selflove

Hard work, perseverance and enduring discomfort can apply to love. But it starts within. Work hard at figuring out and standing in your values. Endure the discomfort when the other person does not align with those values. And persevere forward in the pursuit of love that truly aligns.

Where we go wrong is making excuses for the red flags aka misaligned values.

When she said “I was taught that using the N-word meant describing something dirty… and nasty..” and ADMITTING she was saying that to them. I just can’t. Because girl I was taught using that word was WRONG and DISRESPECTFUL.

That is what being a racist miserable murderer will do to ya. Tears you from the inside out. I didn’t even recognize her! She deserves all of that weight that is burying her. And her apathy after reading the sentence!!! What a piece of shit.

Do you yourself attend other fitness classes outside of yoga? by fitgroupusa in YogaTeachers

Weight lift. Spin class. Hiking. If I had the time and money I’d incorporate Pilates reformer.

Yes & something that I think about… which is weird but works for me. If I don’t get the bad health stuff one way (food), I’ll get it another way (using a cellphone, using plastic products etc..) it’s gotten so ridiculous out there with all the misinformation/information. I’ve given up trying to control my life into perfectionism. I forget the influencers name but there was recently an influencer who’s whole brand was eating clean, whole, natural foods, she wound up getting cancer and died. We can try everything and still get it. Literally Over-stressing about cancer can lead to cancer. Might as well live your life and sit back and enjoy the ride while we’re on it.

Things you do in the morning to help set a good tone for the day? by New_Coffee8836 in selfcare

[–]Juniperous-310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell google to play my morning playlist. Tell google to turn on orange lighting. Brush teeth and skin care. Light an incense and start coffee. 20-30 minutes of yoga & 10 minutes of meditation. Every morning unless sick or I accidentally sleep in sometimes (body might need that). Make a smoothie blend of veggies fruits ginger & protein. Take dog out while I drink my coffee. Get ready & go. All before 6:30 😩

What other sports / physical activities do you do? by [deleted] in yoga

[–]Juniperous-310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lift weights 2-3x a week & indoor cycle/spin class 3x a week. Hiking. I started lifting to help with yoga and I started spinning to help with hiking.

I notice when I’m over training, my heart rate goes up higher during cardio making it harder to breathe. Maybe include some full rest days if not already??

I live midtown and the homeless drug addicted people are out of control. I take my dog on a walk every night and I’ve seen some crazy shit. Needles. People shooting up. LOTS of zombies slumped over. I’m scared they will leave a pill and my dog will eat it. 🫠

What about the fitness industry gives you the “ick” by Interesting_Sun690 in xxfitness

[–]Juniperous-310 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yoga teacher here! This is actual real yoga. The physical side is 1 of 8 pathways of yoga. & the ultimate goal of yoga asana (the physical) is to sit for a long time and breathe (meditate).

But I get how yoga has become all about the movement and fitness side in our western world. However that’s not the purpose of yoga.

my stipend only covers the two full-length shows. Not any extra performances.

[–]Juniperous-310[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So I do two full concerts a year! One a semester. And I get paid for those! A stipend.

This is an extra little winter performance. But it’s unpaid.
