Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: The Future Is None Of Your BusinessEver take a trip into the future?
Ever lose a night’s sleep wondering what’s going to happen?
Ever flip out over all the terrifying, terrible things that might happen?
Ever get so excited about something that’s going to happen that the reality of it is a letdown?
I’ve got some news for you, friend:
The future is none of your business.
The infinitude of the present moment is your business.
Here’s how to manage future-tripping thoughts:
It used to be that, to practice yoga, you needed to be celibate.

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: On Sexual PurityThe Yoga Sutras insist upon sexual purity, but its meaning has changed over the millennia.
It used to be that, to practice yoga, you needed to be celibate.
That means no sexual experiences of any kind, including self-pleasure.
The idea is, sexuality is purely a form of humanity. To transcend sexuality, and therefore your humanity, is to attain enlightenment.
That’s not always relevant in this day and age. Not all of us can be celibate; humanity would cease to exist.
Nowadays, it’s interpreted a bit more loosely.
So what does it mean to practice sexual purity?
Take a list

It's nice to do all year round, but it's significant to do on new years of all cultures and full moons.

Splendid YogaWe're All Addicts: Splendid Yoga Interview with Taylor LancasterY’all, Taylor Lancaster is one of my best friends and Buddhist and vegan mentors.
Find him on insta @tenderliving
He was awarded the congressional Medal of Honor for his protest against GMOs, traveled on his bike for 2 years, and just finished the PCT.
He was also molested as a kid, raped, and beaten up for his queerness.
He lives life on his own terms, which is why he inspires me.
We chat in Maui about his sobriety, how that affects his queerness and his internalized homophobia, and whether any of this is real.

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: What is fear? Anger? Hatred?Rumi was asked:
What is poison?
Anything beyond what we need is poison.It can be power, laziness, food, ego, ambition, vanity, fear, anger, or whatever.
What is fear?
Non-acceptance of uncertainty.If we accept uncertainty, it becomes adventure.
What is envy?
Non-acceptance of good in the other.If we accept good, it becomes inspiration.
What is anger?
Non-acceptance of what is beyond our control.If we accept, it becomes tolerance.
What is hate?
Non-acceptance of people as they are.If we accept unconditionally, it becomes love.
So how do you love unconditionally, tolerate what is beyond your control, seek...

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: Cyclical ThoughtsDo you sleep through the night?
Me neither.
When you wake up in the middle of the night, is it because you’re so excited about what’s going to happen the next day, like a kid before she goes to Disneyland for the first time?
Sometimes, that’s the case for me, usually right before I travel.
Usually, I’m thinking about all the stuff that’s stressing me out.
(Sometimes that’s travel, too.)
Recursive thoughts, or the 3am thoughts, as I like to call them, are those pesky memories and worries that sneak into your subconscious and just won’t l...

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: Who knows where thoughts come from?“Who knows where thoughts come from? They just appear!”
That’s a quote from Empire Records, a movie that came out over 2 decades ago (omg).
It stuck with me as a teenager, when my boarding school friends and I would watch it over and over again. We still quote the line to each other in our various Facebook activities.
It’s come up a lot in my meditation studies because the practice of meditation is basically side-eyeing your thoughts into oblivion.
In this seated meditation, you’ll learn how to label your thoughts.
Thoughts are either the past
memories
emotions
regrets

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: The Body KnowsThis is a meditation to help you gain clarity.
Perhaps you’ve not been feeling well but aren’t sure why.

But the body knows what it needs to heal.

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: A Loving Kindness Meditation for Forgiveness and PeaceMay you be filled with joy.
May you be at peace.
May you move with kindness.
This is a loving kindness meditation. You offer joy, peace, and kindness to the people in your life you love in order to make it easier to offer the same joy, peace, and kindness to the people in your life with whom you have some conflict.
It’s a tool for inner peace and forgiveness.
Here’s how it works physiologically:

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: A Simple Meditation For Travel StressPerhaps you have some travel in your future.
Here’s a simple visualization to protect you in times of stress.
Like…..going to the airport.
Like…….being around family and alcohol.
Like…………….life in general.
We’ll spend a few minutes grounding, and then you’ll glow, like the sun.
Like the sun, you have an infinite resource of energy at your disposal.
Like you, the sun exists in and of itself, not for anyone else.
That it so happens to provide energy for all life on earth is a coincidence / miracle.
That you so happen to provide sweet, protective, light-filled energy fo...

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: You are right where you need to beThere is no peace in the future.
There is peace in the present moment.
There is peace in the now.
But we love to think about the future.
I do, at least, especially in the middle of a big project.
I’m in a masters program to study acupuncture and herbs, and man, it’s fun to think about what it’s going to feel like when I’m done.
I’m years away from being done.
I don’t want to live the next years of my life waiting for something to be over, missing the sweetness of the present.

Splendid YogaDaily Meditation: The Impossibility of PeaceHere’s the thing with peace: it only exists in the present moment.
Here’s the thing with our minds: they love to live in the past and the future.
w. t. f.
How is peace even possible, if our egos are trained to ponder the past for lessons and protect ourselves from the future?
