Yoga: Visiting Omkar 108 Yoga in Los Angeles
The post Yoga: Visiting Omkar 108 Yoga in Los Angeles appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
What does Omkar mean? I wondered, and google told me that first of all it:
Causes you to be systematic, technical, and attentive to detail
My first practice after a lot of confusion and suffering in my life happened today when I had the privilege of visiting Omkar 108 Ashtanga Yoga in Los Angeles.
From outside, on the back of the studio, there is a speaker so you can hear mantras – I thought I recognized Manju’s CD which I find energizing and focusing.
I was there early so I peeked in, and saw one of the assistants practicing an advanced pose.… Read the rest

YOGA: My Whole Life in 7 Boxes
The post YOGA: My Whole Life in 7 Boxes appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Starting again. New Life. New City. 7 boxes in the garage, that is my life down there.
I take what I need when I need it. I am blessed to have friends that put me up in their home and opened their hearts.
I’ve known my friends for 30 years. They came to my home when they started from zero as well, in New York a long time ago.
There is something exciting about starting again. It is very difficult, but it is a new learning curve. How to survive, get an income a job a bed or a room or a studio.

Yoga: Where Have I Been?
The post Yoga: Where Have I Been? appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Hi, glad to be back here, and in touch with you guys. First things first, I have moved to Los Angeles California.
Life threw a really bad ball curve my way, and I’ve been in a cave healing a broken heart.
I decided to move to Los Angeles to put some distance and recover, so that is where I am right now.
I don’t yet have a home or work, which is pretty scary, but I am trusting that the universe delivers us into the situations we need to embody to learn and grow spiritually.
I am also very grateful to have friends that are helping me get started in a whole new town.… Read the rest

Yoga: 7 Poses To Relieve Sciatic Pain
The post Yoga: 7 Poses To Relieve Sciatic Pain appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Oh dear! I can’t move! Every single little movement feels like hell!
Woke up with a sharp pain and cannot move?
sciatic
This has happened to me at least 3 times in my life.
Chances are the sciatic nerve is involved.
Because it is the LARGEST single nerve in the human body and,
It runs from each side of the lower spine (the lumbar and sacrum) through deep into the buttocks and then into the back of the thigh… And… then into the leg and foot muscles.
Sciatic Nerve
What Causes Sciatic and Leg Pain?
If a nerve is compressed and it touches the sciatic nerve you will feel it.… Read the rest

Yoga: The Most Important Question Is
The post Yoga: The Most Important Question Is appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Why is the woman birthing, the poet writing,
the dancer dancing, the painter painting,
the worker working.
My latest work of paint “La Bola Azul”
THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION IS
What is it that moves the pen?
animates the body, keeps the galaxies floating, makes me a cup of tea,
glares onto the stars, gets lost in thought and snaps out of it, and,
more importantly, what is it that travels in space through warm holes?
THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION IS
Who am I?
Why am I here?
What did I do?
Where’s my head?
Did I really do THAT?… Read the rest

Yoga: How Do You Slow Down?
The post Yoga: How Do You Slow Down? appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
A huge ray of light hit the building at 3:00 AM and the tropical storm woke me up. No sense in going back to bed.
I am writing now with my father’s Parker. A beauty.
But a slow beauty. The thing moves alongside the page very slowly, ink flowing down into the paper, word by word.
Sometimes I can anticipate a sentence, but most of the time we are in a word-by-word basis, she and me. If I rush it all becomes illegible, a garabato, a mess.
My father’s pen
My mind is not Okay with this.
She is used to the rush, the quick email, the 9 to 5 and the 24/7 and the 7/11. … Read the rest

Yoga Anatomy: David Keil Review
The post Yoga Anatomy: David Keil Review appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Reviewing David Keil… Quite a pleasure
The First DVD
I found First DVD very informative and an in-depth resource for any practitioner or teacher that would like to dig deeper into what is happening inside the body.
Anatomy –the subject- is dry by itself but David manages to make it pleasant and interesting.
LISTEN TO MY PODCAST WITH DAVID
In my first impresion and doing what nobody should ever do, which is judging by the cover, I thougth that the DVD would be full of jokes, but it was not, it is very serious, and only has the ocassional touch.

Yoga: Four Ways To Unveil The Truth
The post Yoga: Four Ways To Unveil The Truth appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
We are all one, we just have different accents.
Unveil the Truth
But I realize understanding we are all one is not easy. We are pre-programmed to think I am am me and you are you.
No such thing I’m afraid, not when we are able to unveil the truth
Have I? NO, no way, my veil seems tight and needs some grease and grace to open up. I am as blind as I am willing to open the divine veil so I can see clear now.
The rain is gone.
Here are ten ways to unveil the truth:
1. – Awake to the Certainty that We Are All ONE
You are the one, and so am I.… Read the rest

Yoga: I’m Here
The post Yoga: I’m Here appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
We talk about planes, my brother, Mariano, and me.
Yesterday in Benavidez I found my father’s captain bag, the one where he kept flying charts, notes, manuals with notes. It smells like the 70’s and feels delicate.
It is black and rectangular in shape. It has stickers on the outside, one for Austral Airlines, one from Japan, a red dot. My dad was a captain.
Captain Clau
It feels like family: rotten yet exciting.
Mariano, tells me about a show on the radio where they analyze plane crashes. I don’t want to hear that. I adore airplanes.
“A Mythological Being” I said
Captain Hanks looked at me. … Read the rest

James Uncovers The Truth About Claudia
The post James Uncovers The Truth About Claudia appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Here is something unusual for The Yoga Podcast.
This time James Altucher (my husband) is interviewing me (the Yoga Teacher).
And he is not holding back, he asks about personal things (very personal),
For example: about yoga:
About what brought me to it,
What it did to me,
What it can do for you, and
How it influences every moment of my life
There was talk ranging the whole gamut:
from Patanjali,
The Hatha Yoga Pradipika
To Professor Krishnamacharya and his student: BKS Iyengar and Pattabhi Jois (founder of the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga System)
To Tiwari (one of the top pranayama (breathing) teachers in the world
To Paul Dallaghan who taught me pranayama after learning it from Tiwari
To Jessica, Kino, Gregor … everybody who came on the Yoga Podcast!
