Community Yoga with Ela

Welcome Fall. 🍂🍁🍂

Sadhana is life unfolding with attention toward intention.

Sadhana is the way we are in the world according to the person we aspire to be in the small to grand events of our life.

Sadhana is the commitment to practice that continually reorients us to the path we ultimately long to walk. Through sadhana, we ritualize of our daily activities, as a reminder that every moment is sacred.

With the myriad distractions in life, we are so easily pulled away from our deepest heart's longing. We get pulled off track by the drama around us, and even chase it around.

Sadhana—the ritualizing of our life—is a way of redirecting again and again and again our prana (life force) in the direction that we more deeply long to orient.

Through consistent sadhana we show up for ourselves through highs and lows, in pleasure and in pain alike. Practice helps us touch back into the clarity that lives within. Our internal wisdom so often gets masked by life's circumstances—by our samskaras, or habitual grooves.

Sadhana and the commitment to ritual practices that we choose or that a teacher prescribes, brings us closer to ourselves and a deeper understanding of our mind, body, and soul.
