Learning Yourself Through Yoga

Reblogged from Notes from the Bluegrass:

My long-time yoga teacher, Bill Hunt, taught me so many things that I've remembered and that have helped me, not just in yoga, but in life. A lesson that has had a big impact on me related to paying attention to how you practice yoga and learning about yourself as you do it.

Each major category of postures relates to a stance you take in life or a way you deal with life.

My name is Raimy, I’m a creative writer and a student of philosophy. Creative-guru.com is a by-product of a deep creative passion for personal and spiritual growth. Ever since I can remember I’ve been trying to find myself, who am I and what is my purpose. Self-knowledge was fleeting at best, I’d catch glimpses every now and then while fidgeting in my best lotus seating position. Eventually I discovered that though long and silent periods of meditation can do wonders for the soul, there are other fun and creative means for self-discovery. Today some of my favorite mediums include abstract painting, dancing, color meditation, and poetry. The goal is to be able to answer with certain honesty what is your passion, what truly gives you pleasure, how can you make a difference, and how will you be remembered?

Thanks for reblogging this post, Raimy. I practice yoga for 13 years and it’s really an eye-opener for yourself. Thanks

  Wow, 13 years is quite some time. Which would you say is your favorite Yoga pose?

    I love them all, but the Tree balance and the Warrior are my favorites and after that the child pose, just to feel safe and sound again. The Camel (Ushtra Asan) is still giving me a hard time, but I keep on working on it
