... beginning of a Yoga class: Its just common sense to take care of your students.

Should you start or finish a Yoga class with meditation? Some Yoga teachers guide students through meditation at the beginning, and the end, of the same Yoga class, while some teach meditation only after asana practice.

Unfortunately, a comparatively small number of Hatha Yoga teachers do not include meditation at all. This happens when a Hatha Yoga class is converted into a fitness only atmosphere. In truth, this is every Yoga teachers prerogative; and some health clubs may not want meditation in Yoga classes.

Many people are attracted because they feel the pull of a magnificent goal, but then, they achieve the goal and suffer deeply. My experience working with clients is that this one key is the cause of nearly 99% of relationship failure.

In my book, Sacred Love, I have included a vision quest for lovers. A do it yourself, 6 week stay at home process for vision quest.

Key 5. Love is a lifestyle. Life is a hierarchy of choices, priorities and decisions. Like any yoga practice, we need a teacher to guide us through those choices with consciousness. In life, love is the guru. And where love does not exist, life cannot exist. Love therefore, is a lifestyle. A way of living that prioritizes the first four steps over the ego, emotion and short term choices. Love is a way of turning up, making sure the past is not driving the future, for surely, any person who is running from the past, will run into it in t...more
