  My yoga intention for the new year
I was reading the Bulletin Board from eSutra (brought to you by the NYC's Breathing Project) and saw an interesting idea: Kelly McGonigal is offering an e-mail based course called "Can Yoga Really Change My Life?" It will last all year and consist of weekly course content sent to you (by e-mail, naturally) and include:
"instructions for specific breathing exercises, meditations, or yoga poses, as well as more general themes for your personal practice. Practice suggestions integrate yoga philosophy and tradition with current psychological and medical research. You will also receive ideas for applying your practice to daily life."

For more information, check out the announcement.

I have cited Kelly's website and her work before. She is associated with Stanford Psychophysiology Laboratory. I like her approach to yoga, and her involvement in Western scientific research in yoga.

I thrive when exploring new realms of knowledge and experience.

"The eye through which I see God is the same eye through which God sees me; my eye and God's eye are one eye. One seeing, one knowing, one love."
         — Meister Eckhart

"Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use."
         — Charles Schultz

"You become a writer by writing. It is a yoga."
         — R.K. Narayan, Indian writer

Men cannot see their reflection in running water, but only in still water.
        — Chuang Tzu, philosopher (c. 4th century BCE)

Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.
