Chakra Exchange

ajlookup_sml Anodea Judith’s half hour guided meditation through the Chakras, was for me, one of the highlights of the Vancouver Yoga Conference & Show.  Her dynamic energy, descriptive dialog chakrasand metaphors, provided a vivid, inward journey exploring all seven chakras.

Starting at the base chakra, shooting roots to the earth, moving energy upwards to the crown chakra, expanding toward the heavens.  A half hour of bliss, feeling centered, balanced and energized.  I had the pleasure of meeting Anodea and expressed how much I enjoyed the meditation.  We exchanged chakra gifts; Anodea Judith’s new award-winning animated DVD, “The Illuminated Chakras” for a beautiful “Chakravibe “7 Chakra Bracelet“.

Anodea Judith is a world renowned expert on the Chakra system and mind body integration.  She is the author of several books and audio products.  The two books which I consider my chakra bibles are “Wheels of Life: A User’s Guide to the Chakra System” and  “The Sevenfold Journey”, to read more

Chakravibe believes in Yoga and Meditation for Brain Bliss

“Your Brain on Bliss “ What is happiness, and how can we achieve it? This is Your Brain on Bliss: Matthieu Ricard reveals After 2,000 years of practice, Buddhist dv1535067monks know that one secret to happiness is simply to put your mind to it.

Authentic happiness is a way of being and a skill to be cultivated. When we first begin, the mind is vulnerable and untamed, like that of a monkey or a restless child. It takes practice to gain inner peace, inner strength, altruistic love, forbearance, and other qualities that lead to authentic happiness. ~His Holiness the Dalai Lama read more

Finding happiness, balance and inner peace is something that we all stride for. I believe that practicing yoga and meditation are vehicles that can help along the path. Daily practice allows us to use the breath to claim the mind, turn our energy inward, bring our focus to being present and in the moment.

Settle down that untamed monkey or restless child.

Namaste Teresa
