Thanks, Towleroad, for the best headline of my morning.
I'm from a part of the country where joining the military is a very real opportunity for those who don't wish to be farmhands or make less than 30k a year for the rest of their lives.
Louis Sheldon and Andrea Lafferty make some absurd statements in their arguments to keep the mo's out of the mil. I like that they also are concerned about about Drag Queens joining, and (in the same breath) imply that they're the same as transgender folk. All I can think of is the Eddie Izzard bit about Drag Queen Paratroopers.

says "as the thumbs are a reflection of the work of the bicep, so to is the work of the breath, as a reflection of the mind... Or perhaps vice versa... Either way, breathe."

can't breathe for shit. I gotta work on my fourth limb if I wanna climb this tree of yoga.
So today: taught all my regular classes, took a bikram class (rewarded for my Karma Yoga!), instantly got a new phone to replace my dead phone, and introduced Ashtanga (breath, focal point, & locks) to a fellow athlete.
Not unlike my time spent at the ashram, I managed to accidently sleep through pranayama. Well hello, 6:40.
stayed at 60% of max in my practice today, focusing on breath. Back is sore from Wednesday's front squads-- those vinyasas I couldn't take I'm giving to Peggy.
is learning to be a better breather at Ashtanga Yoga Center, Washington DC.
had a pretty amazing day-- An awesome lift this AM, fabulous classes, a coffee date with my dear teacher and friend Kristen Krash, a fantastic conversation with my students about what "yoga" means to them ("awareness of the breath, body and mind. freedom. work."), and a killer CrossFit class. I mean, really. Today rocks. MichaelCycle shipped, too. I know, I can't stand me, either. 🙂
Movement and Breath are powerful together, no?

Eat a little, drink a little
Talk a little, sleep a little
Mix a little, move a little
Serve a little, rest a little
Work a little, relax a little
Study a little, worship a little
Do Asana a little, Pranayama a little
Reflect a little, meditate a little
Do Japa a little, do Kirtan a little
Write Mantra a little, have Satsang a little
Serve, Love, Give, Purify, Meditate, Realize
Be good, Do good; Be kind, Be compassionate
Enquire 'Who am I ?', Know the Self and be Free

Pranayama on the train. do-da, do-da.
"Caution: Especially those who want to start practicing the two yogangaâs âAsanaâ and âPranayamaâ without following the aforementioned niyamas, following drawing charts and practicing on their own freewill will not receive benefits but may also be responsible for tarnishing the name and bringing disrepute. " http://grimmly2007.blogspot.com/2013/08/krishnamacharyas-house-recommendations.html?m=1
"Hm. Good."

Too much coffee, all the prana.

My mama, the big yogi: "The road ahead will always be a new adventure. Breath, smile, enjoy."
But you're not making this easy on me. No coffee, no prana.

Full badman morning. 8 counts on closing sequence, janet's new album during self practice, intermediate on a Friday. Call the Ashtanga Police, idgaf.
2016
Friday's score card: Led primary. Led pranayama. Lunch date discussing financial planning. Ice cream (mango kulfi-- branching out). Pune style iyengar class. Up next: Dinner + Kingfisher.
Take a second just to breathe. Pick your heart up off your sleeve. You're perfect and awe inspiring.
Wrong. Tiaras, laurels, and crowns are all acceptable at brunch. And CVS. And in the shala after practice. During pranayama. While baking cookies... I mean, um, making smoothies.

Are you feeling stressed? Hungry for no reason? Irritable?
How about overly sleepy? Lethargic? A feeling of general malaise?
You might need to relax your system-- and I'm not talking in a shmaltzy bubble-bath-y way (please note: I love a bubble bath).
If you're nervous system is all high-strung right now, it might be so high that you can't even tell except for some of the above... you're just kind of in a bad mood. Sound familiar?
If you've had trouble getting back to a feeling of being centered, I recommend putting a tool in your toolkit that ca help.
Here's a strong technique that works.

https://mailchi.mp/d072b41a25e4/summer-samskara-and-bias-yoga-with-mjh-news?e=feb1d577f1
In September, Iâll be launching a 10-month integrative online Functional Ashtanga Training. We dive *deep* into functional anatomy, contextualized yoga humanities, and a collection of the most potent pranayama and meditation practices I have discovered in my 20 years of dedicated practice. Iâve spent two years developing this program, which includes 4 functional joint assessment for each participant (so you can measure your progress), 150+ 20 minute learning videos (Iâm still recording!), curated readings, and measured learning objectives (homework + quizzes). Of course, Iâll have office hours. Itâs capped very, very small for this first cohort, and costs 3,000â but Iâm gonna take 500 off if you sign up early. With a $500 deposit, Iâll offer a monthly payment plan for 10 months (with no upchargeâ gross).

✎ Essay · Practice
The Philosophical Underpinnings of Pranayama
Join us on a profound journey as we delve into the essence of Pranayama, the fourth limb of yoga, where breath intertwines with life force. Explore the subtle anatomy of energy—understanding how prana, the vital life force, flows through nadis and aligns with chakras. Discover how mastering the breath not only enhances physical vitality but also fosters emotional and mental clarity. This exploration promises to unravel the philosophical depths of breath practices, inviting you to breathe deep and awaken your inner energy.
