Many retreat guests asked about how often and how long is my personal yoga asana practice, what I do in the asana practice, and whether I perform the yoga asana practice when we are running yoga retreats.

The personal yoga asana practice is being performed everyday, even when we are running yoga retreats, except on the days when we run intensive yoga retreat, I would take rest. The daily yoga asana practice would take about one and a half hours to two hours. These are some of the yoga asana in the daily yoga asana practice.

Intimidated by other people's physical conditions and abilities in yoga (asana) practice?

If we have been putting in the same amount of time, discipline and effort into our daily yoga (asana) practice, just like those who have been spending lots of time, discipline and effort to keep the body and mind busy engaging in regular yoga (asana) practice, whether for spiritual growth, or for health and fitness reason, or for both, we won't have the free space in the mind, nor have the free time to be busy looking at other people's 'performance', or their result of a persistent and regular practice, and feel either envy or intimidated by other people's physical conditions and abilities, and spiritual improvement.

Although yoga, or unconditional love and peace, is nothing to do with the levels of physical conditions and abilities, but naturally, there will be certain amount of improvement in physical conditions and abilities, as an 'unavoidable' side effect coming from the regular yoga (asana) practice, whether we are aiming at it, or not, or whether we like it, or not.

We do not intent nor expect to gain any physical fitness, strength and flexibility while performing the yoga (asana) practice, as that is not the objective or goal of performing the yoga (asana) practice, and our basic yoga practice is non-attachment and non-identification towards the impermanent limited conditional physical body and the thinking mind. But the physical and mental effect coming from the regular yoga (asana) practice will still be there, as it is.

The body will gain certain degrees of fitness, strength and flexibility, and the mind will gain certain degrees of calmness and peace. But that is not the end of our yoga practice. We need to use that physical condition and state of mind that is conducive for meditation, to contemplate upon the truth, to go beyond the body and mind, to remove ignorance, to be free from being conditioned by egoism, duality, or the qualities of names and forms.

We will never feel intimidated by anyone or anything, if we truly practice yoga and meditation under correct understanding, right effort and right attitude.

Om shanti.

Give yourself 15 minutes, to get you going in daily yoga asana practice...

Before the start of yoga asana practice, it's normal that our mind feels reluctant to move the physical body. We will give ourselves 'reasonable' excuses to escape a two hours of daily yoga asana practice.

The point is, even before we bring the body to perform daily yoga asana practice, to overcome that 'laziness' or 'struggle' is our real yoga practice.

To develop strong self-discipline in anything that we want to pursue is indeed our yoga practice. It's not so much about how good we are in what we are doing. But to keep up the discipline is where the practice is.

It is only the first 15 minutes of physical movements that we feel 'struggle'. After 15 minutes or so, it will turn into 'enjoyable' and 'energizing' that you don't want to be disturbed until you finish your daily two hours routine.

That's why I encourage anyone to do some yoga asana practice even just for 15 minutes (It's a trick, but it works). Because that is what you need to get your body going. You will no longer need someone to 'push' you to 'finish' your daily 2 hours routine. As the energy fields in your body will tell you, "Yes! Keep going... 15 minutes is not enough."

Om shanti.
