Traci Vogel Yoga: October 2011
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 21, 2011. That well know phrase. "Do as I say, not as I as I do" has become so well known that it is now expected by most. Isn't it so much easier to give advice then take your own words of small wisdoms? Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Portland, Oregon, United States. View my complete profile.

Traci Vogel Yoga: November 2011
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 17, 2011. Who is John Galt? In a recent marketing plan from yoga clothing company, Lululemon, they have had an outpouring of praise and unrest and even screaming opposition. All to a not so simple question. Who is John Galt? Putting the fact that a company is putting this out there… lets take a look for a second about the fundamental basis of not only the book Atlas Shrugged but the principles of yoga, based on classical texts such as the yoga sutras. Who is John Galt? I was driving ho...

Traci Vogel Yoga: November 2009
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 9, 2009. As the Rain Falls. One way to help deal with stressful times is to turn to our breath. Seems so simplistic, doesn't it? In times of stress, frustration, anxiety or any other feeling of discord, our breath becomes shallow and even stressed itself. Our breath is the last thing we tend to focus on or even think about. We sometimes even forget to breath! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Portland, Oregon, United States. View my complete profile. Yoga Shala of Portland.

Traci Vogel Yoga: March 2011
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 6, 2011. What you want or what you need? Many times we have an idea of what makes a good class or teacher and what doesn't. Is it really that important to have music in class? To end with a Savasana? Is it not a Vinyasa class if the student is not asked to do one Downward Facing Dog the entire class? Personally, I would need another couple cups of coffee before being able to fully function for work. Or in an evening practice that is so strong with firey standing balances or arm balances?

Traci Vogel Yoga: January 2010
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 10, 2010. Sankalpa and the new year. It still is making me reel a bit that we are not only welcomed into the new year but into a whole new decade. As we work our way through the hardships of this year past, we are looking to the future for a sense of ease and relief. But is it an intelligent, or more importantly, a wise stance to look forward so much so that we forget where we stand? As the calendar has turned, we are asked what is your new year's resolutions? Resolution vs. Intention.

Traci Vogel Yoga: Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2010/10/utthita-hasta-padangusthasana.html
Saturday, October 23, 2010. The month of October I have been having great fun playing with this pose in classes. I have found over the years that instead of sharing my love for standing balance asanas many have instead found great frustration. I can understand this. At first, it takes great focus and determination. But it doesn't have to be difficult. Yeah, it never works out well. There has to be an equal understanding of what you want and what they want. Extended Hand to Big Toe Pose. 8226; If appropri...

Traci Vogel Yoga: Be in the moment even when....
http://tracivogelyoga.blogspot.com/2011/08/be-in-moment-even-when.html
Sunday, August 21, 2011. Be in the moment even when. We often talk of being present and in the moment. On a good day, when the stars seem to align just right and everything seems to work just the way we were hoping, it seems like we can do anything. We can watch attentively and enjoy each moment when it comes. But how about when life gets chaotic? Or when you are stressed? Or how about when someone you love is hurting? Would she have gotten better if I just let her be? Is there something else wrong?
