Insights from Jen Louden- retreat notes #3

Wide Whacky Happy Relaxation
~Try to expand your idea of what relaxation is – get beyond what relaxation is – get beyond what you think should be doing.
~Bring that sense of your self back into your body – that precious body you have – let the twinges become a portal to your body
~Ask yourself: [...]
comfortretreat insights#2
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 23, 2009
This is a continuation of my notes from last weekend’s Virtual Comfort Retreat somewhat disjointed, etc., but you can, I hope, get the idea.
Dr. Judith Orloff –
Emotional freedom = Increasing your ability to love more by relinquishing the hold of negative emotions
This is her own technique developed from her work as psychiatrist and [...]
retreat insights
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 22, 2009
Several of you have asked me to summarize what I learned during the ComfortRetreat. It was a life-changing four days, but I’ll try to give you the gist of each speaker. You can click on the name to head to their website for further wisdom. I’ll try to sum up all of Jen’s wisdom at [...]
bird in the basement
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 17, 2009
Yesterday I embarked upon a “vision quest” of sorts: a virtual retreat with Comfort Queen. I AM SO PUMPED! Four days I am giving over to bursting outta ordinary life in order to sit with my existence. It’s a time to look long and with new slant at how I do things, especially how I [...]
Do You Believe in Prayer?
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 13, 2009
Yoga and prayer…do they go together…do YOU bring them together? Yoga asana IS prayer for me. It’s the prayer of the body in motion. It’s opening my SELF to the grace of the universe.It is working to create a sustainable body/mind/spirit and therefore family/friendships/community/nation/world.
Sitting meditation – is it a prayer? Yes’m indeed. We sit to [...]
Benefits of Inversions, Modified Shoulder Stand
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 12, 2009
When the elder yogini grinned up at me from her head on a blanket on the floor – her legs up in the air of the studio – her backside securely perched on the folding chair – I could see that she was in the “correct” position and the correct position felt good!!!
If you are [...]
Tree karma, tipsy angel, yoga’tude, joy
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 7, 2009
It was an ordinary winter break.
Sure, there was a ridiculous blizzard, mucho tree karma again, kids stranded overnight in Atlanta, anise cookies baked too late for aging, fruitcake eaten too early for aging, the last minute gift wrapping frenzy, and unexpected visitors, including our dog-guest, Yoshi.
But there was also the traditional cheesy plastic nativity set [...]
falling outta freefall into the blogosphere
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 2, 2009
It’s not so much about what’s new as it is leaving the old year simmering in the dust. Looking at the past to see where I am today. Checking back on the flight plan with a sense of bewilderment and awe. Who signed off on this journey anyway???
Leaves turning. . .
It was the Fall [...]
Resolutions
carolyn aka LaughingYogini | January 1, 2009
Just read Waylon Lewis of elephant. If you don’t know WL, here is a video about his aspirations for elephant:
He has a beautiful list of resolves for the new year:
1. Meditate Two Minutes every morning: Or more. Meditation, no matter your religion, is simply mind training: helping you to be in the present moment, helping [...]
