Uniting Thought and Action

Greetings Yogis and Yoginis,

This week in class we are considering the topic “Uniting Thought and Action.”

During the day do not do one thing while thinking of another. Thought and action must be unified - no thought be permitted without reference to actions or intended action; and no action performed without intention. By this practice all day long the mind and body are taught to act together, without any waste of physical or mental energy.

- Ernest Wood

The homework is to practice unifying the mind and body through your asana practice. Learn to be economical in your movements and actions and to be present by recognizing when your mind wanders from your practice. Apply this practice to your daily life off of the mat.

Blessings,
