Nepal Earthquake Appeal

At Yoga in Daily Life, we have been saddened and shocked by the news of the recent earthquake in Nepal. The impact has been devastating and far-reaching. Millions of people are now homeless and thousands have died or been injured. Many are still missing. Here is a link to some of the latest information to give an idea of the devastation affecting Nepal. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-32492232

At Yoga in Daily Life we join governments and charities throughout Australia and the world in supporting the relief efforts for the devastating Nepal earthquake. The Australian Government has pledged an initial $5 million. India has sent tonnes of medical aid, food, water and resources to those who are left homeless, stranded and wounded.

Vishwaguruji has called for our support. Your contribution may seem small, when compared with governments, who are able to give millions, even billions in relief. But what can we do? Whatever you can give is enough. But for us it's simply a matter of knowing, that when the world needs it, we are here to help.

March - a month of abundance


March was a month of activity with the founder of Yoga in Daily Life, and some amazing programs.

The Welcome Satsang was a warm celebration of thanks for the Founder of Yoga in Daily Life, for all that we have in our lives and who we have become through the practices he has taught.

Shivaratri was another amazing evening held in the garden with more special guests from Nepal, Slovenia and India, and some amazing talks about spirituality in daily life and understanding Shiva. Holi was a colorful evening with everyone's faces and arms an array of vibrant colors, not a single guest entering through the front door turned down the opportunity to be painted purple, pink, green, red and yellow. It was a joyful evening celebrating the truth of goodness, overcoming darkness and negativity.

The month culminated with a full moon meditation, in which everyone sat in a large circle two to three people thick, to fit everyone in. Naturally the meditation was divine and uplifting guided by Vishwaguruji. We will be having full moon meditations every month now so keep an eye out for the schedule.

We are all thankful for the month that will remain etched in our hearts for a lifetime.

Making a sankalpa – a firm resolve

With 2015 upon us, it is time to start thinking about setting a sankalpa, or firm resolve, that will help you reach your goals or make changes in your life in the year to come. A sankalpa is different from a resolution. It is a positive commitment to change. But a sankalpa is more than just positive thinking. You must be committed to your goal and if you are, and take the right steps, it is already fulfilled. But how does it work? Read More
